20 END

the present scheme of rent allowances without the

deduction of 6 per cent of salary payable under the

old scale, i.e. at the rate of $250 per month where

the salary exceeds £1400 per annum and $200 per

month where it exceeds £1100 but does not exceed

£1400 per annum. I suggest that a reference to

the payment of such rent allowance should be included

in any offers of appointment.

3.

Finally, offers of appointment in such

cases should specify "free partially furnished

quarters".

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble servant,

J. Art. Worthen to

Governor.
