Instructions for the completion of the Cards and

1.

Schedules.

A: the Cards

I enclose a specimen which shows its size and form. Kindly note that the top right hand corner should be cut

off If you consider the eize likely to be too small

for the clear presentation of the required facts, especi-

ally in the "Remarks" space, you can adopt a somewhat

larger form. But the more compact the size, the more

suitable for use in my valuation. The exact spacing

for answers is left to your notion of what is sufficient.

The intervals for the "month", for example, (see section

6 of these instructions) might be shorter. And you will require to make the card a little longer than the specimen

in order that (underneath the column of the actual total

revised (Prospective) pension") you may insert, in brackets

in red ink, the recomputed ProspectivePansion men-

tioned in section 20 of the Instructions. The "Remarks"

space will probably be large enough, for, if necessary you can carry over to theback (placing "over" at the

required foot of the card) any additional particulars, with a

reference to the questions on the front appertaining to

them.

The card should be made of stout cardboard, and the

questions should be printed.

The carda should be numbered consecutively from No.

1, and you shouldbe good enough to advise, in a letter

the total number sent (and also the number and nature

of the schedules forwarded and any other statements

despatched
