regard to the despatch N° 350 Hong Kong from the Governor of that Colony, I beg to point

Sir

XIK

out how very unfair

unfair Clause 4 of

that ristrutch is as

regards

my

position

qualifications and suitability for a in the Public Works Department.

Clause 4. Reads as follows: -

ar an

us a

Mr. Carre was a zenlous and efficient officer with an excellent training

Sanitary Jaspector. His want of maining Engineer renders it impossible to find a vacancy for him in the Public Works Department while the high valary that he enjoyed £360 to £420, per arrum makes it extremely difficult to find employment for him in the ordinary Clerical Subordinal service.

In reply to the above Fenilox a copy of my qualifications and also copies of cestimonials one of which is from W. &. J. Lovegrou," "Engineer & Surreyor, Hornsey Brouge Council. I have never claimed that I am fully qualified for the position of an

of an Engineer, but I do claim and can prov that I am fully qualified for the position of an Assistant Enginur, many of which are employed in the Puthe works Department," to greak of its bring difficult to find employment for me in the Ordinary Clerical Subordinat service is simply

most absurd and unfair.

The report from the Governor of Hong Kong unas to leaa you to bruin that I am not good enough for the PH.D.
