e.g, he might wish to transfer the Class I Officer who has
been recently officiating as Director of Education to the
post in which Mr. Breen officiated before his retirement, i.e.to
the Postmastership General.

Mr. J. A. Fraser joined the Hong Kong service in
the same year as Mr. R. A. D. Forrest, whose promotion to Class I on the existing salary scale was approved by your Confidential despatch(3) of the 30th November, 1936. Although
a barrister-at-law Mr. Fraser elected not to transfer
to the Colonial Legal Service in view of his prospects in
the Administrative branch. The next senior Cadet Officer
below him is still two years from attaining the maximum
salary of Class II. I would not therefore regard Mr. Fraser's promotion to Class I on the existing scale as pre judicial to a switch-over to the system of promotion to specified posts on the new salary rates when the next
predictable Administrative vacancy occurs in 1939. I therefore recommend it for your approval not only as being
equitable in Mr. Fraser's particular case but also as
enabling a reshuffle of senior personnel before officers
become assigned to specific appointments under the new
Salary Scheme.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient, humble servant,
Dalkers 7
Governor, &c.
