to increase the strength of the Force to enable it to cope successfully with its increased responsibilities. Government has accordingly approved the following increases for 1940:- Europeans 8, Cantonese 90, Cantonese Sub-Inspectors 14.

A further large portion of recent increases in establishment has gone to strengthen the Special Branch.
