Kuk is a Chinese-speaking woman who is paid by the Portuguese Society and who is reported to be satisfactorily discharging the duties of her post.

As the present arrangement is working well, there does not appear to me any strong reason for altering it, though the present matron can be easily transferred to the staff of the Registrar General's Department, should you desire such a transfer to be made.

The Society has not expressed any desire for the change suggested by you, though it naturally would not object to being relieved from the burden of paying the matron's salary, which is at present $20 a month.

In accordance with your request, I enclose copies which have not yet been transmitted to you.
