Such work cannot properly be regarded as within the scope
of the Chief Mechanical Engineer's duties as a Railway
Official.

The conditions under which these special
allowances were originally approved still obtain, and after
full consideration I am of the opinion that it would not be
equitable entirely to withdraw them merely on the ground
that the salaries attached to the appointments have been
revised. The allowances were granted for duties superimposed
upon those for which these officers were originally engaged,
and in both cases the extra work is responsible and heavy,
and is efficiently performed. At the same time, I think
that there is some justification for a reduction, and
I therefore recommend that the Traffic Manager be granted
an allowance of $75.00 a month, and the Chief Mechanical
Engineer an allowance of $100.00 a month, so long as the
existing combination of duties in each case remains in
effect.
