Under the new scale the salary of the Assistant

Harbour Master has been relatively reduced.

The professional qualifications and responsibilities attached to my Office have apparently been overlooked, and having regard to my length of Service, I submit that my

salary compares very unfavourabl, with those of professional

and other Officers in large Departments.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient servant,

(sgd.) T.W.H. Hosegood

ASSISTANT HARBOUR MASTER

The Honourable,

The Colonial Secretary,

HONG KONG.
