By the tenor of the reply I received from the Hon: Director

of Public Works on the 5th. February, 1914 it would appear that we

enjoy privileges not equally enjoyed by the other overseers.

This is not so. There is not an overseer or subordinate officer

in the Government Service who does not enjoy equal privileges,

neither is there an overseer or subordinate officer in this Depart-

ment who cannot rise to the salary I now astfor. In fact, some of

them, without any special qualifications have risen to that rank

within three or four years of their joining the service, and I,

with my eleven years faithful service, have to work side by side

with these men in a junior capacity.

Prior to 1906 we enjoyed the same privileges and scale of

pay as these overseers, but in that year they applied for an increase

of salary on the grounds of the enhanced cost of living prevailing

in the Colony even at that time and their petition was approved,

but, we, through no fault of our own, received no corresponding

promotion. We know of no justification for thus lowering our

official standing.

The only, or principal qualification necessary to become

a first class overseer, is to be a trademan. I respectfully submit

that such a qualification would not suffice to become a Land Bailiff.

To be a qualified Land Bailiff one must have, at least, the following

qualifications:-

(1) He must be a Chinese scholar of no mean order.

(2) He must have a good general education to enable him to

render accurate and intelligent reports to his superiors.

(3) To carry out his duties efficaciously he must have a

fairly advanced knowledge of surveying and mapping.
