I have the honour to transmit herewith an application from Major J. J. O'B. Sexton, 110th Mahratta Light Infantry, now Commandant of the Camp in which are interned the 3 Officers and 61 men of the former Russian Torpedo Boat Destroyer "Burni", for an allowance as 1st Class Interpreter of 15/2 per diem. The application is recommended by the General Officer Commanding, South China, whose covering letter is also forwarded.

The charge seems to me a fair one with which to debit the Russian Government in the accounts for the maintenance of the Russian Officers and men, and if the Treasury takes this view and the War Office have no objection I shall be obliged by your authorising me to sanction the issue of the allowance,
