and the post of Chief Preventive Officer was then

rilled by promotion. Thus the ratio of senior posts

to lower ranking posts was 2 to 9, or 1 to 4.5.

The staff having increased to 21, the ratio is

1 to 21, so that promotion prospects are now approx- -imately one-fifth of what they were 17 years ago,

and may be reduced to nil if the post of Senior

Revenue Officer is abolished.

about lack of promotion prospects may be best

brought out by comparison with other Departments,

and we show on page 4 comparative details in

tabular form. Figures have been taken from 1938
