Colonial Secretary and Assistunt Colonial Secretary, incluling

exchange compensation as calculated in Estimates for the current

latter $8,318 per annum. This gives a ratio of 2. 2 : 1. Thus

the Assistant Colonial Secretary draws a salary considerably loss

than half that of the Colonial Secretary, wherese assistant

heads in other departments draw a salary which ie more then

half that assigned to the head of their department.
