was on leave or on the sick list. One European cannot do all the Apothecary work required and as the new arrangement will considerably increase the duties of the Assistant Apothecary, and to prevent future trouble, I recommend the increase of the pay of the Assistant Apothecary. It is not enough at present for a European of his class to live on. He has gone through years of training, and his pay is not even equivalent to that of a Police Inspector, and as has been proved, if he is a man worth his salt, we shall probably lose him in a few months, as we have already lost a thoroughly reliable and good all-round officer. It is good, therefore, that his pay should be raised.

I recommend that it should begin at $100 per month, increasing to $130 per month, and this without prejudice to the proposed scheme for rectifying the value of the dollar in the Service. Ultimately, it will be patent to the Government as well as to myself that the analytical work will require the whole man's time, and that there will have to be an Apothecary and Assistant Apothecary in the Hospital without any analytical duties belonging to their duties as apothecary.
