Government House,
Hongkong 5th. April, 1910.
I have the honour to transmit for
Your Lordship's consideration the enclosed copy of a letter
from Mr. C. Clementi, Assistant Colonial Secretary,
in
which he applies for an increase of salary. Mr. Clementi
is at present drawing $4,800 per annum the minimum of the
salary ($4,800 to $5,400 by $300 triennially) attaching to
his appointment; but he will receive his first increment in
October next.
2.
The principle laid down by the
Retrenchment Committee in 1894 and quoted in the enclosure
to Mr. Clementi's letter, that the Assistant Colonial
Secretary should occupy his post for a considerable
number of years has been acted upon in Mr. Clementi's case
and there is no doubt that in consequence he misses
opportunities of acting in senior and more lucrative
appointments.

THE EARL OF CREWE,
