the various Christian Missions cannot, I think,
be extended to cover the required schools. These
Grant Schools receive a very small Grant from the
Government (83 to 85 per head per year). They make
both ends meet by charging very considerable fees..
But the parents whom it is desired to aid are hard-
-ly in a position to pay any fees, perhaps 20 to
50 cents a month at the outside. The Grants would
have to be very largely increased, and even then
there would be no security that the class of
children whom it is intended to benefit, were
really being benefited.
After careful consideration and consulta-
-tion with the Secretary for Chinese Afairs and
the Senior Chinese Member of the Council, I recom-
-mend that the Body to be employed in developing the proposed new Vernacular Schools should be the Confucian Society, and that it should be aided in
the following manner: The Confucian Society already manages about 20 schools. Owing to the smallness of
the school fees charged, they are a great drain
on the Society, which cannot extend its efforts
very far on these terms, nor would the small grant
offered to Vernacular Schools be a sufficient
relief. I propose that a different system should be adopted. A lump sum of, say, $10,000 should be
voted, and this should be disbursed to the Society
at the end of the year upon the recommendation of
the Director of Education that the schools are
being properly conducted, and upon receipt of properly audited accounts showing that at least 820,000 has been expanded by the Society on the schools. I am told by the Secretary for Chinese
Affairs that there will be no difficulty in auditing
