1698 to 200:

(d) The sterling pay is inadequate considering the increasing

cost of living; and the cadet in such pay can have no

reasonable expectations of being able to marry with any

view to prudence and comfort before the age of forty to

forty-five, when he may reach a second-class post with a

salary of £600.

(e) We are at a serious disadvantage compared with cadet and

other officers doing the same or similar work.

If these grounds are not held to warrant a reconsideration

of the sterling scheme as applied to cadets, I would at

least ask that if an officer has been drawing an increment

as Passed Cadet, he may be allowed to take the first incre-

ment on his promotion to a Permanent Post, in order that

he may not be a loser thereby.
