Birchy Cove, Bay of Islands, Labrador, NL, 1908

from Musée McCord Stewart Museum

• GTography said:

  I would suggest that the label on this photograph is incorrect. Birchy Cove, Bay of Islands is on the west coast of the island of Newfoundland, not in Labrador.

• Lee Story said:

  You're absolutely correct. The "NL" means Newfoundland and Labrador, of course.

  The Wikipedia article on British Empire Economic Conference is a start point; and it is being held in Ottawa, Canada. It seems to be about trying to recover from the Great Depression, and tariffs were being discussed. Even if not wishing to be part of the commonwealth RoI would be very interested in any trade/tariff implications with UK and indeed the Commonwealth and it was probably better to be at that to try to influence decisions than not be at it.

  Was Lemass there too? Looks like him seated 3rd from right. O'Kelly seated 7th from left?

  Photo of what appears to be the same event was published in the New-York tribune, July 23, 1922, with the caption "BRITISH EMPIRE'S YOUNGEST PREMIER. Sir Richard A. Squires, K. C. M. G., Prime Minister of Newfoundland, sailing from New York for England aboard the Olympic. Sir Richard, who is but 38 years old, goes to London in the interest of his country's paper pulp industry.
