COLONY FINANCES

Votes totalling $119,267 were ap- proved at yesterday's meeting of the Pance Committee, which was pre- sided over by the Colonkal Secretary,' The Hon. Mr. N. L. Smith.
Referring to an
an lem of $37,270 for personal emoluments in respect of the Hongkong Magistracy, the Chair- man sald: This of course is one of those ordinary transfers. Since we ceased to have a separate head of estimates for the Cadet Service, each
its department has to make
own #uuso as to what sum it must allow during the coming year. There will be corresponding savings, I think.
The Financial Secretary: That's right.
In connection with an Item of $10,000 for drainage works in Kow- loun,
the Hon. Mr. M. K. Lo sald: May I ask whether the work can be proceeded with forthwith because I believe there has been quite a delay and a lot of houses are held up.
