With reference to Lord Crewe 'o

Despatch No. 160 of the 29th. July, 1908, I have the honour

to state that Mr. S. B. c. Ross has drawn my attention to

the fact that with the exception of 24 days in Merch, 1909,

he has acted as District Officer et Taipo from the 6th.

December, 1908, until the present date. He has this year

drawn no extra remuneration whatever for acting in this

post. Last year he received a sum of $75 but Lord Crewe

laid it down that this payment was not to be drawn into a

precedent. Therefore, although a sum of $25 with exchange

compensation thereon lapsos to the Treasury each month he

cannot hope to draw any acting pay.

2.

Mr. Ross then applied for an

increment in his substantive post of Assistant District
