September. The Officer Commanding 74th Punjabis returned the cash and asked for a cheque. (This only transpired after Chan Pui had absconded). The Accountant received the cash back, but made out no cheque. The cash was not accounted for. Ko reminder was received from the Officer Commanding 74th Punjabis until the 12th December, 1919. It seems extraordinary that the Officer Commanding 74th Punjabis should not have drawn my attention to the non- payment of the amount due to the Regiment, sav for June in July or August. I can trace no notice of any minute from the Treasury calling upon me to explain why these vouchers remained outstanding for such a lengthy period.

12. Voucher 17.

850.00.

Steamer Guarde.

This amount was sent in cash to the Accountant, who issued a temporery receipt for it and failed to account for it. This sum should have been eent to the Treasury direct by Messre. Carmichael & Clarke.

13. Voucher 8. Guards on shore.

£1,194.00.

Sume amounting to 1,194.00 were received by the Accountant for which temporary receipt were granted. Only $21.77 was paid over to the guards by the Accountant, leaving 81,172.23 unaccounted for. See also Credit side. Voucher 8.

In this case I requested the Treasurer to collect the amounts due from firms and individuals as was done in the cese of Steamer Guards. The Treasurer, however, declined to permit payment direct to the Treasury on the grounds

that Shore Guards were not covered by the Piracy Prevention

Ordinance which made provision for Steamer Guards only. Had

my proposal been acted on this sum would not have been lost!

14. Voucher 18. Outstanding Cheques.

$14,429.63.

The outstanding cheques were covered by the credit in the

No.1 Account. That credit amounted on 30th November, 1919,

to 822,612.73. (See No.1 Account credit side).
