Your despatch 19th August No.492 financial position,
I will raise no objection to announcement in Legislative
Council as proposed in paragraph 10, but I desire that it
should be made clear that I contemplate the possibility
of salary levy having to be continued in 1937 with very

then is demanded by obscurity of financial outlook.
