General myself, shortly after the Bill was passed,

-

23 of 1903 asking what my powers were as Administrat-

ive Head, and whether I had to give the officers their

rules,

and he told me that as Administrative Head of

the Board, I had that power.

Did you put that question to the Attorney General in 16291

writing, or was it done personally ?

I think I did it in writing, but I cant find a record,

of it. I have been trying to this morning.

Would you make a note of it. We would like, if you can/f292
