Sir: The bill entitled " An Act to En-
courage the Cultivation of Coffee" has
been submitted to US for approval. re-
turn it without my approval for the follow
ing reasons, viz:
First. 1t is not right nor just to the tax
payers of the Kingdom to grant subven-
ton of so large sum for the furthering of
a private enterprise.
Second. No objection exists TO giving
subventiOns in aid of private enterprises;
but this should be done by granting boun
ties for what have been produced
Third. Such bounties should be given |
to all who embark their private capital in a
new enterprise and achieve success, not to
one person exclusively.
