The Governor has asked for Mr. Sloss's appointment to be if possible treated as that of an Unofficial Member of the Executive Council. Mr. Sloss is Vice Chancellor of Hong Kong University, but he is at the present time holding the post of Chief Censor under the Hong Kong Government. He receives no remuneration for this, however, as the post is an honorary one. The question whether he can be appointed as an Unofficial Member, therefore, seems to turn on the point whether his post of Chief Censor is to be regarded as "an office under the Crown in the Colony at the time of appointment" for the purposes of Clause 2 of the additional Royal Instructions of the 30th April 1938, and we would be grateful for legal advice as to whether, for the purposes of the Royal Instructions "office under the Crown" can be taken to be confined to an office with emoluments attached. (If this is not the case it would seem to be impossible for a member of say the Hong Kong Volunteers to be a member of the Executive
