The case of Mrs. Main has been dealt with in

my Despatch No. 293 of 20th. August, 1912.

13.

Third Interpreter. Supreme Court.

I attach an application from lir. A. J. Mackie

for increase of salary. The salary compares unfavourably with that

of the Chinese Higher Grade Interpreter whose maximum is $2,700

per annum which at 2/- to the dollar is equivalent to £270 a

year. I consider that the scale of salary should be altered to

£240 £270 by £10 anually and that Mr. Mackie might be allowed

to draw £250 as from lat. January, 1913.

14.

The total increases involved in the recommenda

-tions in this Despatch are shown in the attached table.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Le

Your most obedient,

humble servant,
