DOWNING STRAFT,

11/37.
18 END
I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your
despatch No. 704 of 21st September 1938 enclosing a
ata toment relating to King Edward VII Scholar: hips, and to
observe that the balance in the hands of the Treasurer has
increased during the year ended 31st August 1938 by
31.15. 1 to 2888. 7. 7. Whilst the latter amount is
smaller than the balance of $18,680 reported in
Sir william Peel's despatch No. 554 of 51st October 19 54
it appears that the increased expenditure proponed iu
that despatch is not being carried out in full.
2. I have accordingly to enquire whether in view
of the balance at present in hand you consider that no
provision of a grant of £300 need be made in the United
Kingdom timates for 1939/40 which are now in course
of preparation.
GOVERNOR
SIR GEOFFRY NORTIKOT, K.C.M.O.,
etc., etc.,
etc.
I have the honour to be,
sir,
Your most obedient
humble servant,
(Sgd.) MALCOLM MacDONALD
