That the present system of calculating pensions was based to suit men on dollar salaries, whose pensions are granted at the rate

of three shillings and eight pence to the dollar, whereas men on

sterling pay only receive the percentage allowed of their actual sterling pay.

That the attention of the Government be called to the good conduct allowances, which at present is considered unsatisfactory. That Petitioners consider that the following is a reasonable
