REGO 26 JUL 09
Government House,
501
Hongkong, 23rd. June, 1909.
In view of the necessity which
unfortunately exists for raising additional Revenue next
year in order to meet the Expenditure, I appointed a
Committee to report as to any means by which Retrenchment
in the Expenditure of the Colony might be effected.
Committee consisted of Mr. 7. H. May, C.M.G.,
The
the Colonial
Secretary, Mr. A. M. Thomson, the Colonial Treasurer,
Mr. C. Mcl. Messer, the Postmaster-General, who has at
various times acted as Treasurer, and Mr. Murray Stewart
at that time representing the Chamber of Commerce in the
Legislative Council. The latter gentleman was last year
selected by the Unofficial Members to reply to the speech
in which I introduced the Estimates and in the course of
his remarks he stated that he and his colleagues were not
satisfied that some curtailment of Expenditure was not
possible. Their report is engaging my careful attention.
