Papua
(We do not know whether Tolala’s Stanley Annandale and ours were related; nor, as stated in October PIM, do we know upon what point of law the case hinged. In the report we saw, Annan dale’s father was stated to have been a natural-born British subject; but the nationality of his mother was not men tioned. There is, in Samoa, the necessary machinery whereby parents, themselves nationals of a Sovereign State, may pre serve the national status of their children born m the Territory. And elsewhere this issue, you will see that NZ has now amended her laws to permit the per manent residence of Samoans.) (OVER)
