I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt

25 on 17035 of Your Lordship's despatch No.181 of 29th June, 1931, on (PF) HR. BUFFERS

the subject of the bonuses payable for certain distinctions

in the Bar Examinations, and in reply to inform you that

the change from sterling to dollars does not appear to have

received special sanction but that, together with many

similar alterations in the denomination of payments, it was

included in the general revision of the General Orders of

Hong Kong forwarded with Sir R. E. Stubbs' despatch No.206

of 6th May, 1924.

2. I consider that payment should in future more

properly be in sterling and with Your Lordship's concurrence

I propose to make an appropriate amendment to General Order

114(7) so as to revert to the sterling figures approved in

the late Viscount Milner's despatch quoted in the despatch

under acknowledgment.

My

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE

LORD PASSFIELD,

I have the honour to be,
