However, I will attempt to apply the rules as closely as possible.\n\nGiven the text is not in a coherent or readable format and seems to be a mix of different languages and scripts, I'll focus on the rules that can be applied:\n\n1. **Format in Markdown**: The output should be in standard Markdown. However, the instruction to output only HTML using `` for paragraphs is contradictory. I will follow the initial instruction set that implies Markdown formatting.\n\n2. **Correct spelling errors**: Many words are not recognizable or are misspelled. Correction is challenging without context.\n\n3. **Fix spacing issues**: Extra spaces will be removed, and missing spaces will be added where it makes sense.\n\n4. **Rejoin broken sentences**: There are no clear sentences to rejoin.\n\n5. **Restore paragraph breaks**: The text will be formatted into paragraphs based on apparent breaks.\n\n6. **Indicate missing words**: Not applicable due to the lack of coherent sentences.\n\n7. **Do not rephrase or rewrite**: The text will not be rewritten.\n\n8. **No translation of text**: The text will not be translated.\n\n9. **Format of File Reference**: Not applicable.\n\n10. **Page numbering**: Not detected in the provided text.\n\n11. **No comments**: No comments will be left in the text.\n\nLet's attempt to format the given text into a more readable format by applying some of the rules:\n\n## OCR Output\n\nMr Bulley\n\nH.

There will be certain boilers and dynamos available from the tunnel plant, but I do not believe the voltage of these is suitable for workshop use. I have been instructed to approach the China Light and Power Company, who have an electric installation quite close, to see what terms they would offer for supplying current for running the shops and lighting the station. In any case, the machines need not be sent out till after the shops, so there is time to go into the question when I report to you the cost of electric power as given by the China Light and Power Company.\n\nA \n22. \n\nWhen Mr. Barry was in Shanghai, he gave a letter of introduction to me to a Mr. Edge, who represents the Metropolitan Amalgamated C and W. Co., and he kindly looked over the drawings I had prepared and gave it as his opinion that the carriages were rather too stiff, inasmuch as with the diagonal bracing below the windows and the vertical tie bolts, the iron gusset straps are not necessary at the junction of the vertical post, horizontal wooden sills, and the diagonals. He considers that the ordinary bent plate iron, 1/4 inch by 3 inches, is quite sufficient, put into the open angles (i.e., those without diagonals) below the windows and above the sills. This alteration he considers will greatly reduce the cost, and I am having it done.\n\n23. He suggested narrowing the passages down the third-class carriages by 2 inches each and widening the centre seat by the 4 inches thus gained, and putting a back running down the centre. When designing the carriage, I went carefully into this question with Mr. Grove, and he agreed with me that the narrow passage is a disadvantage, as it makes it so difficult for the third-class passenger to reach and leave his seat.\n\n24. \n\nHe thought the lavatory accommodation rather excessive \n-20-",

        "content_text": "## latter do come over to the north side \nin summer it is only for four months and in no great numbers, while even these few stay in the higher regions far from the Mongols. They thus rarely come into contact with each other, and as they rarely speak each other's language they are as strangers, and view each other as enemies, for the Hassacks are sheep-stealers and camel-lifters by profession, even pilfering from each other when there is no stranger to rob.\n\nIt was with real regret that we said good-bye to the Mongols, among whom we had lived for over four months, and this is a good opportunity to say a few words about them. They are a marvellously hardy race; they can ride for 30 or 40 miles on nothing but a drink of tea, although their daily diet does not appear to be at all sustaining; they can endure being thrown violently from their ponies to the hard ground without a murmur; even if half stunned their friends only shake them up again, and they remount as if nothing had happened. In spite of this, they are a timorous race, and this defect, apart from their lack of power of co-operation and lack of military training, render it highly improbable that they will ever be able to take the field again. They seem entirely incapable of any deep emotions either of gratitude, love, or sorrow, while they have no reverence whatever for their dead.\n\nThe mountain Mongols are jolly and independent and happy, though how they can find life pleasant during six months of winter it is difficult to see. They possess a childlike simplicity, and, like children, are pleased with anything novel or glittering; their timidity requires great patience to overcome. They are hospitable and careless to a fault, and, so far as my experience goes, absolutely honest and trustworthy.\n\n## September 5\nHeavy snow fell during the night. Wandering about the fir forests I came unexpectedly across fruits which I had difficulty in believing real with deep snow on the ground. There were gooseberries like our own, but slightly smaller and not so ripe, black currants growing singly on a stem and not in clusters, and a red berry, with little taste, growing in circular clusters on a long stem with a long narrow leaf; these somewhat resembled our ash berries; the natives eat all these fruits, as also a small dark purple berry not unlike a grape, but more oval and not so large; this grows singly on a stem.\n\n## September 6\nThe Hassacks shave their heads and wear a closely fitting cap with, over this, a variegated bonnet with flaps for the ears and neck, originally intended only for winter use, the natives now use this in summer also. They wear baggy trousers, either so short that they end well above the ankles, or so long that they almost conceal the whole foot. Some of the trousers have embroidery work on them. For coat they wear a loose big garment somewhat like our frock coat, this sometimes has a coloured border; this coat is tied loosely at the waist, and is sometimes trimmed and lined with fur.\n\n## September 7\nLeaving the basin of the lake in a westerly direction we passed a ruined log cabin, and at once (within half-a-mile) began to ascend, and after crossing some very stony broken ground descended slightly to a comparatively large lake at mile 24, which drains by a chain of smaller lakes to Daunngor. We now began to ascend steadily up the valley of the stream which feeds the above-mentioned lake. It took us five and a-half hours to reach the summit of the Ermektu Daba (daba meaning pass). For the last couple of miles the whole face of the range was a watercourse from the melting snow, and travelling was difficult; in addition to this, it was excessively steep, and consisted of nothing but loose slate, shale, and stones. The fir plantations soon came to an end after starting, and were succeeded by a low scrub 1 to 2 feet high, resembling our bilberry, only not so thick. On the west side of the range this was more profuse. Both on the ascent and descent many purple and yellow pansies, common dandelions, and buttercups were to be seen among the snow. Contrary to expectation, there is a little view to be obtained from the top of this pass over the main range.\n\nDescending sharply by an equally difficult track we reached a tiny lake a mile below the summit, whence flows a small stream, one of the head waters of the Kran, to join the Irtish. Descending rapidly down this valley we reached the station of Ermektu balak after a total march of 18 difficult miles. This station is out of the main valley and on a brawling mountain torrent which rushes down to join the stream we had left. One of the camels was so exhausted descending the pass that it had to be abandoned.\n\n## September 8\nWe had a long and difficult day during which we descended several thousands of feet by a series of valleys and mountains, the camel track sticking at nothing, but going straight ahead over hill and dale; the general direction was south-west. Crossing the Ermektu gol we kept at the same height for 2½ miles, dropping then to a valley, out of which we climbed again; at mile 6 we reached a valley down the stream of which we kept to mile 12; passing a collection of Hassack graves here and crossing another mountain torrent we climbed a steep fir-clad range in front of us.\n\nThese were the first firs seen on this side of the range; from now onwards the valleys were full of these groves, and it is here that bear are to be found. At mile 20, after crossing several ranges and passes, we found ourselves on the top of the last pass on this side of the Altais, and were able to enjoy a view over the plains which blinding snow had denied us from the loftier passes. From here we descended abruptly into a gully stretching to the west. At the head of this was the camp of Uliassuta. A more delightful spot than this narrow cañon flanked by high fir-clad hills and watered by a mountain burn could hardly be imagined. We were thoroughly exhausted by our march of 21 miles, for the day could not have been more disagreeable.\n\nThe morning opened cloudy, and an hour after the start was made the weather broke, and after coquetting with us with hail, sleet, and snow for an hour or so, the wind bringing it from every quarter in turn, heavy thunder being also heard in the distance, snow settled in definitely, and for two hours a blizzard raged from the west, entirely concealing the track, and making marching horrible. We left the snow in the valley above us, and at Uliassutu found heavy rain had fallen all day long.\n\nThe camels were exhausted by the march, and this goes to show that the Chinese Government would find it difficult in case of need to maintain a continuous transport service for stores or ammunition along this route, for the animals could not do two heavy days consecutively.\n\nIn addition to the pansies found growing among the snows to-day there is also a creeper which grows in the greatest profusion, it somewhat resembles ivy but the leaf is not glossy; the leaf is small and inclined to turn red in the autumn. In addition to the firs there is a mass of fir undergrowth.\n\nThe range on this, the west side, is much narrower than on the east side, as will be noted from the fact that we descended from the top of the pass in two and a-half days while the ascent to the same took seven and a-half marching days.\n\nThe mountains on this side are a confused mass with really beautiful valleys and the descent is much more picturesque than was the ascent. There are few lakes but innumerable streams.\n\nThe women (in the mountains) go unveiled but they wear a white linen covering to the head drawn tightly over the forehead, it can be drawn over the face at will. A long green coat and a short variegated petticoat with boots like the men's complete their dress. They are very shy.\n\n## September 9\nThe warmth in the cañon struck me very forcibly after the cold in the mountains above. We descended the gully for some 4½ miles and I warrant it would be difficult to find a prettier scene than this. At the same time we were gradually descending to summer again and the day being still and cloudless the sun shone with all the force of September. On the south side the valley was thickly covered with firs while along the babbling stream grew willows, birches, poplars. On the north side were low bushes many covered with wild berries and turned to autumnal red and gold; among these the track wound. Butterflies of all the commoner varieties known in Europe were chasing each other in the sunlight, insects humming everywhere, gorgeous dragon flies flitting about while the air was fragrant with the scent of the firs. Added to these were the chattering of the pies, the cawing of rooks, and the merry song of the woodcutter and ginseng hunter (for a coarse variety of this plant so prized in China grows here in some profusion). Even on the north side a few firs were to be seen but these decline to face the south and, when they are found there, are small and puny. Squirrels were darting across the path no longer condemned to bury themselves in the ground away from the sunlight.\n\nAt mile 4 we turned out of the gully and dropping over low hills covered with low bushes into valley after valley we reached the new Chinese colony of Sharasumé at mile 13½.\n\nLet me add that the track is an extremely difficult one to find, winding as it does in an unusually intricate manner among these scrub-covered hills, and it is essential to have local guides; it may be mentioned that even the natives sometimes lose their way in the maze of hills.\n\nDuring the morning we killed a snake 1·4 feet long of greenish brown colour.

He admits that he was not careful to see his head or face, and cannot say that he did see either.\n\nThere is an order in the printed prison rules that officers on their patrols are to be particularly careful to see the heads or faces of the prisoners. I think it is pretty certain that what he did see on that visit was not the sleeping prisoner nor the prisoner at all but the cunningly arranged simulacrum above referred to. Not being able to see the prisoner's head he ought to have entered the cell at once, when the whole affair would have been at once apparent and the escape from the Gaol could probably have been prevented even though the prisoner was by that time clear of his cell. P. W. Piesse declares that when he looked in the cell at 4.10 the bucket lid was still in its old position against the outer wall. I think Sher Singh's statement that it was on the floor is more likely to be the true version, but if the lid was still there it is probable that the prisoner was disturbed when he had made all his final arrangements and was on the point of crawling out.\n\nIn that case he would have been crouching in the corner of the cell, hidden from outside view, and if Piesse had entered the cell he would have caught him. As regards Sher Singh I consider he showed want of judgment in not at once reporting the position of the bucket lid as a suspicious circumstance, but that does not much affect the case as P. W. Piesse admits that he noticed it and knew it himself all the time. Beyond that I do not think that any negligence has been established against him.\n\nI believe that Warder Thorne did make a thorough and conscientious search of the prisoner's cell and clothing as he states. I have not been able to ascertain how the prisoner obtained the piece of bucket lid. I am still prosecuting enquiries but I am afraid it is likely to remain a mystery. I think he could not possibly have picked it up himself, as he only left his cell one hour a day for exercise in the yard which is quite near. The Chief Warder's theory is that it was passed to him by a prisoner from another cell. We suspect a certain cleaner to be at the bottom of it but have no proof yet.\n\nThe wall of the cell is about 24 feet thick but is part of the very old portion of the Gaol buildings, and is",

There were certain poor cases (Probate and Letters of Administration) and he would prepare the papers with the object of relieving the public. Poor people would come into the registry: enquiries would be made and if under $500 Mr. A. K. would receive an order to prepare the papers: when the papers were prepared Mr. Alim Khan would receive the cash from the people and affix the stamps: in each case it was necessary to get Registrar's or Deputy Registrar's cognizance. I was aware that the practice was irregular; but they were special cases; in these very small cases he was allowed to receive the money in advance: I did not know that he accepted all the money requisite to be paid out as required. I never gave him any such authority at all. I was away on leave during all this affair. Cross-examined by Mr. Alim Khan. Probate work is not part of my duty but I have often done it. I should always see that the stamp was on before I administered the oath. The stamps would be fixed and cancelled before the oath. If I saw a petition taken before myself on which the stamps were cancelled some days after the oath there must have been some special reason for such a circumstance. I don't personally remember any individual case. (I will show you cases). You did handle cash for the Official Administrator, (Sd.) J. W. Lee-Jones.

I submit that he has been actuated by ill-feeling towards me which ill-feeling I struggled hard to disclose in the course of the cross-examination of Mr. Nisbet by me but the Committee would not permit me to do so as it was of the opinion that a gentleman of Mr. Nisbet's class could not be actuated and subordinates were wrong in coming to that supposition. I admit this but with exception, if I may say so. I regret to have to refer to the question of actuation on the part of Mr. Nisbet, but it is unavoidable for the purposes of my defence as a whole bar to the money order cash.\n\nI respectfully submit that if Mr. Nisbet could see his way to denying knowledge of one fact he could be assumed to be wrong in denying knowledge of other facts and the statement or statements in connection therewith should not be weighed with the same amount of confidence as if the statement or statements had not been contradicted and more especially by the Assistant Heads of Department, viz.:- his two Deputies.\n\nPractice as to receiving fees in advance in pauper cases. This practice was created in the time of Mr. Seth about 1908 and had been in force ever since in the Registry. It has now been made the practice of the Registry under an order of the Court in Probate matters including pauper cases and is under consideration of the Law Society of Hong Kong at the instance of the Registrar, Mr. Nisbet, previous to the 30th of June last. The Registrar must have had the question of taking fees in advance in Probate matters under his consideration for some time before he could have submitted it to the Law Society. It was undoubtedly the most wise and convenient course in every respect in Probate matters and it has been proved beyond any shadow of doubt, to be so by the fact that the Registrar himself has now adopted it under an order of the Court after my transfer from the Registry.\n\nThe",

Falcone and countersigned by the Clerk of the United States Court for China, Shanghai.\n\n\"It was discovered that the market was flooded with \"01 Mil)\" oigarettes, which were slightly discolored, and that 98 as a consequence sales were dropping off considerably. Upon investigating, we found that practically all the stock which was sent from Shanghai some months back had become discolored. This matter was reported and it was decided that: we take up all the old stock on the market and replace it with fresh stock. It was about this time that Mr. Theyken and myself discussed the possibility of disposing of a few of the cigarettes for our own profit. I assured Mr. Theyken that it could be done safely and without fear of discovery. I approached a man in the Customs, whom I understand was named J. Cassin, and explained to him my plan. Upon being assured of his support, I interviewed Cheung Sing and Shun Kee with the aid of my interpreter, Mr. Peu, with a view to sell them a number of cigarettes which were to be reported as destroyed. To further enable me to carry out my plans, I talked with the stevedore who was then handling our shipments, Mr. Chan of Wah Hing Co., who also assured me that he would give me his support for a consideration. I then gave instructions to prepare the necessary papers required to destroy sixty 50,000 cases of cigarettes. The stevedore went to the Yeumati godown and took delivery of the sixty 50,000 cases and delivered thirty of the cases to the destruction grounds, fifteen cases to Cheung Sing and fifteen cases to Shun Kee; in the meantime having discovered\n\nthat\n\nØ\n\nTwo local cigarette dealers.\n\n1",

In this case it is understood that, as with the Police, the officer concerned must first obtain the consent of the Superintendent of Prisons to bring his wife to Hong Kong, and that he must live in approved premises.\n\n(iv) Indian and Chinese Police come under General Order No. 111 which reads as follows:-\n\nWhere married quarters are not available, rent allowances may be granted, at the discretion of the Captain Superintendent of Police to officers of the Indian and Chinese contingents of the Police Force at the following rates:-\n| Rank | Rate |\n| --- | --- |\n| Inspectors and Sergeant Majors | $20 a month |\n| Sergeants | $10 a month |\n| Lance Sergeants | $7 a month |\n| Constables, 1st Class not exceeding 10% of the Establishment | $7 a month |\n\nprovided that the officer has obtained the consent of the Captain Superintendent of Police to bring his wife to Hong Kong and that he lives in approved quarters.'\n\nWe are satisfied that conditions regarding the Police can be termed exceptional, and we recommend, therefore, that General Order No. 111 should remain as it is.\n\n## Conclusion\n\n183. We desire to express our appreciation of the very valuable assistance given to us by the Secretary, Mr. W. J. Carrie, of the Hong Kong Cadet Service, in the conduct of our prolonged enquiry and in the preparation of this Report. As will be readily realised from even the most cursory perusal of the Report, a series of elaborate calculations had to be made by him before we could put forward our various recommendations; and we are especially indebted to his industry and to the thorough knowledge of conditions of service under the Colonial Government possessed by him and always available for our use.\n\nWe also desire to call attention to the accurate and painstaking work of Miss V. R. Harrison who took the evidence of the very large number of witnesses who appeared before us, and has had to do all the typewriting necessary in the course of our enquiry; and, incidentally, often to work long after official hours in order to keep up with our rate of progress.\n\nWe are indebted also to Mr. Un Ting-fan of the Junior Clerical Service who interpreted, when Chinese of the lower grades appeared before us, and to Mr. Badan Singh who assisted where necessary in the examination of Indian Police and Prison Warders.\n\nWe have the honour to be,\n\nSir,\n\nYour Excellency's most obedient servants,\n\n**II.

I appreciate the Commissioners' tribute to the work of the officers mentioned and venture to recommend for your approval the payment of the following bonuses:-\n\n  \n    To Mr. W. J. Carrie-Secretary\n    $1,500\n  \n  \n    Miss V. R. Harrison-Stenographer\n    $500\n  \n  \n    Mr. Un Ting Fan--Interpreter\n    $75\n  \n\nThe extra duty required of Mr. Badan Singh was not of sufficient magnitude to call for any bonus.\n\nI have the honour to be, My Lord,\n\nYour Lordship's most obedient, humble servant,\n\nTHE RIGHT HONOURABLE LORD PASSFIELD,\n\n&c., &c., &c\n\n(Sd.) C. CLEMENTI,\n\nGovernor, &c.\n\nEnclosure No. 2 to Governor's despatch of 22nd January, 1930.\n\nREPORT OF THE SALARIES COMMISSION 1928.\n\nRECOMMENDATIONS AND OBSERVATIONS.\n\nA.\n\nRecommendations.\n\nParagraph 26.-New Year Bonus.\n\nThe Government is prepared to accept the Commissioners' suggestion for the institution of a system of New Year bonuses to Chinese employees in the lowest categories which may most conveniently be described by the term \"Labour\". It is realized that such a step may have very far-reaching effects in the cost of such services to other employers, including the Military and Naval Authorities of the Colony. But some large \"foreign\" employers already have such a system in working, it is usual in domestic service and in some form or other among Chinese employers. At the same time it is not considered practicable to fix arbitrarily a limit of wage above which no bonus shall be receivable and it is therefore proposed that a careful survey shall be made of all Chinese \"Labour\" in the employment of the Government, category by category, and a decision taken on the merits of each. It should be observed that owing to the action of the Chinese Government, the use of the lunar calendar among Chinese may perhaps disappear and that, in such an event the bonus will become payable in December instead of January or February. For the first year therefore in which the change takes effect, it may be necessary to budget for two bonuses.\n\nParagraphs 28-37. Governor.\n\nParagraph 32. In view of the increases in salary accorded to the Private Secretary and Aide-de-Camp, it is considered that the Conveyance Allowance of $360 per annum each now drawn by these officers should be abolished.\n\nParagraph 34.-It will be more convenient to include under the head \"Governor\" in the Annual Estimates the wages of the chauffeur for the second Government House Car (see paragraph 36). At present the Governor himself pays a portion ($240 per annum) of the wages of the chauffeur for his second (private) car, the remainder ($600 per annum) being paid from Fire Brigade funds. The wages of the motor cleaner $192 per annum now paid by the Governor personally should also be transferred to public expenditure under the same head. The saving to the Governor represented by these charges, $432 per annum, will be deducted from the lump sum of $5,000 per annum recommended for servants in paragraph 35 of the Report.",

        "content_text": "185\n\n42\n\n(iii) Indian Prison Warders of over ten years service at present receive rent allowances of $180 per annum. We consider that these might continue. In this case, it is understood that, as with the Police, the officer concerned must first obtain the consent of the Superintendent of Prisons to bring his wife to Hong Kong, and that he must live in approved premises.\n\n(iv) Indian and Chinese Police come under General Order No. 111 which reads as follows:\n\nWhere married quarters are not available, rent allowances may be granted at the discretion of the Captain Superintendent of Police to officers of the Indian and Chinese contingents of the Police Force at the following rates:—\n\n  \n    Inspectors and Sergeant Majors\n    $20 a month.\n  \n  \n    Sergeants\n    $10 a month.\n  \n  \n    Lance Sergeants\n    $7 a month.\n  \n  \n    Constables, 1st Class not exceeding 10% of the Establishment\n    $7 a month.\n  \n\nprovided that the officer has obtained the consent of the Captain Superintendent of Police to bring his wife to Hong Kong and that he lives in approved quarters.' We are satisfied that conditions regarding the Police can be termed exceptional, and we recommend, therefore, that General Order No. 111 should remain as it is.\n\nConclusion.\n\n183. We desire to express our appreciation of the very valuable assistance given to us by the Secretary, Mr. W. J. Carrie, of the Hong Kong Cadet Service, in the conduct of our prolonged enquiry and in the preparation of this Report. As will be readily realised from even the most cursory perusal of the Report, a series of elaborate calculations had to be made by him before we could put forward our various recommendations: and we are especially indebted to his industry and to the thorough knowledge of conditions of service under the Colonial Government possessed by him and always available for our use.\n\nWe also desire to call attention to the accurate and painstaking work of Miss V. R. Harrison who took the evidence of the very large number of witnesses who appeared before us, and has had to do all the typewriting necessary in the course of our enquiry; and, incidentally, often to work long after official hours in order to keep up with our rate of progress.\n\nWe are indebted also to Mr. Un Ting-fan of the Junior Clerical Service who interpreted, when Chinese of the lower grades appeared before us, and to Mr. Badan Singh who assisted where necessary in the examination of Indian Police and Prison Warders.\n\nWe have the honour to be,\n\nSir,\n\nYour Excellency's most obedient servants,\n\nH. C. GOLLAN, Chairman.\n\nPAUL LAUDER.\n\nHis Excellency\n\nSir CECIL CLEMENTI, K.C.M.G., etc.,\n\nGovernor etc.\n\nHONG KONG.\n\nSHOU-SON CHOW,",

        "content_text": "(1) INTRODUCTORY.\n\nFollowing on the inauguration of the Junior Technical School in Hong Kong, it was felt that the next step in the setting up of a system of Technical Education for the Colony was the investigation of the potential value of various types of Trade Schools, and as a preliminary to the possible establishment of such schools the following work was carried out.\n\n(1) The Principal investigated, and issued a report on, the local conditions of apprenticeship in certain trades (Report No. 2).\n\n(2) The Principal visited (in August 1933) the Trade Schools and other Technical Institutions of the Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States, with a view to studying their organisation, equipment, and cost.\n\n(3) The present Report was prepared to show how far the methods and organisation of these schools could be applied to the needs of the workers of Hong Kong.\n\n(2) SCHOOLS VISITED.\n\nThe schools visited can be divided into three sharply defined groups.\n\n(1) The light engineering schools at Singapore, Penang, Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh.\n\n(2) The Technical School at Kuala Lumpur.\n\n(3) The Carpentry Schools at Bagan Serai, and Johore, the latter including a tailoring section.\n\nIn addition, a most interesting visit was paid to the Central Workshops of the Federated Malay States Railway at Kuala Lumpur, this being one of the few industrial establishments in the Federated Malay States where a systematic training is given to apprentices.\n\n(3) THE LIGHT ENGINEERING SCHOOLS.\n\nThe schools very moderately claim that their object is \"to enable their students to earn a living by following a trade\". Actually, they aspire to do much more than this, and are producing a new type of mechanic who should do much to raise the level of craftsmanship in the light engineering and automobile trades. Great care is taken that no boy is allowed to specialise in too narrow a field, and in addition to a really sound knowledge of one trade, any passed student should be able to tackle almost any metal work with which he may be faced.\n\nThe date of opening the various schools is as follows.\n\n(1) Kuala Lumpur\n(2) Ipoh\n(3) Singapore\n(4) Penang\n\n1926\n1930\n1930\n1931\n\nWhile each of the light engineering schools has a distinct personality of its own, the fact that they have all been developed from the original School at Kuala Lumpur is at once noticeable.\n\nPage 20\n\nPage 21",

        "content_text": "35\n\n16\n\nSUMMARY.\n\n17\n\n(7) THE CARPENTRY SCHOOLS.\n\nThis school was founded to meet a definite limited need, and seems to have been highly successful in fulfilling its object.\n\nConduct and Time-keeping 240\n\nBAGAN SERAL.\n\nNote Books and work during Technical Course and Evening Classes...... 460\n\nTechnical Examination. 620\n\nShops 680\n\nSchool 2,000\n\nStudents obtaining less than 50% total marks may be sent back for further training. Students obtaining 50-75% are appointed as chargemen.\n\nStudents obtaining 75% or over are appointed to superior positions as these become available.\n\nThe standard of instruction in the Technical School is well up to the examination standard of such bodies as the Institution of Civil Engineers or of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.\n\nThe specialised equipment used on the railways for signalling and other purposes is kept thoroughly up to date; but there is much room for improvement in the equipment of the Strength of Materials and Prime Movers Laboratories.\n\nIn addition to the Special Apprenticeship System the Railway has a very sound scheme of training trade apprentices, these being moved from one gang to another within the department, in which they are apprenticed. The duration of apprenticeship is five years. Attendance at evening courses at the Technical School is compulsory for all apprentices, English being one of the main subjects taught.\n\nThe value placed on a good general education can be gathered from the rates of pay on which apprentices start. It will be observed that these are solely dependent on the educational standard of the apprentice.\n\nRATES OF PAY OF APPRENTICES, F.M.S.R.\n\n  \n    Daily Rate of Pay.\n    Standard V.\n    Standard VI.\n    Standard VII.\n    Junior Cambridge.\n    Senior Cambridge.\n  \n  \n    1st Yr.\n    -/40 cents\n    -/48\n    -/56\n    -/64\n    -/72\n  \n  \n    2nd Yr.\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n  \n  \n    3rd Yr.\n    \n    \n    -/80\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    4th Yr.\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n  \n  \n    5th Yr.\n    \n    \n    -/88\n    \n    \n  \n\nOn completion of apprenticeship rate of pay varies from S$1.08 to S$3.32 according to skill and responsibility. It should be understood that a number of years must elapse after completion of Special Apprenticeship training before it is possible for a man to rise to $3.32 per day, which is the maximum rate for a leading hand.\n\nTradesmen receive free quarters or a rent allowance in lieu.\n\nThis crop being very definitely seasonal, those employed in its cultivation have long periods of idleness between seasons. To enable the more industrious portion of the population to turn this free time to account, it was decided to open a Trade School which would enable its students either to turn out good class work, mainly furniture, for the local markets, or to build the wooden houses mainly used by the Malay.\n\nOn the other hand, no maintenance allowance is granted, and, owing to the scattered nature of the population it has not been found possible to keep the school quite up to full strength. The annual entry is limited to thirty, no fees being charged.\n\nThe minimum educational standard of entrants is Standard V of the Malay Schools, and the duration of the Course is three years.\n\nIn spite of the difficult nature of the Malayan timbers, the standard of work done in joinery is of a very high order.\n\nUnfortunately, just previous to the date of the present visit, a sale had been held of the furniture made by the school. Good prices were realised for the stock sold, and judging from the quality of such articles as remained, tables, side-boards, gramophone and wireless cabinets, etc., the articles sold must have been good value. Prices up to $40 were realised. Several remaining articles at $20 seemed well worth the price asked. It is probable that this sale will become an annual event.\n\nOn completion of the course all students receive, gratis, a nucleus tool kit to the value of approximate £2 sterling. This is quite sufficient to enable them to undertake any normal work.\n\nIt is interesting to note that a number of passed students have combined to form a Co-operative Society for the production of furniture. They cannot enter the field of open competition till they attain the age of 21, but at present they are making tables and desks for the Education Department at contract rates, and doing the job very well.\n\nThroughout the course students are required to produce working drawings of the articles which they propose to make, prepare bills of quantities, and render estimates of the cost of each such article. The work is very well carried out.\n\nNote: All furniture made is of European pattern, well jointed and polished, and quite up to the quality seen in most Chinese shops in Hong Kong.\n\nThe three instructors who have all been engaged locally are to be congratulated on the success of their efforts.\n\nInstruction in Carpentry is gradually being made general at Schools throughout the State. Two instructors are appointed to each school, one appointment being made each year. Appointments are for two years, the instructors being passed students from Bagan Serai, who receive a small pay of $27 per month. This is sufficient to provide a fair number of these students with the necessary capital to set up small workshops of their own.\n\nOne student has obtained a permanent position at Johore Bahru Trade School.\n\n36",

        "content_text": "18\n\nT\n\n19\n\nJOHORE BAHRU :\n\nThe State of Johore pursues an educational policy quite apart from the other Malay States and largely ascribes its freedom from an unemployment problem to this policy. All promotions from the Malay to the English Schools are by a Scholarship Scheme, great care being taken to prevent more boys obtaining an English education than can be absorbed by the Government Departments and foreign firms operating in the State.\n\nSome alarm has recently been felt at the increasing spread of immigrant Chinese among the outlying villages, where their greater industry and skill has, in many cases, enabled them to corner the local carpentry and tailoring trades. To prevent this peaceful invasion producing unemployment among the Malay population, it was decided to open the Trade School at Johore Bahru.\n\nStudents for the Trade School are recruited from the lower stages of the English Schools from those boys who seem more likely to make successful artisans than clerks; and also by selection from the upper classes of the Malay Schools.\n\nThe work done is largely on the lines of Bagan Serai, but actual instruction is given in the design, layout, construction, and erection, of simple timber structures. Where considerations of space intervene, e.g. in building a complete wooden house, the building is made half size.\n\nIn the tailoring section instruction is given in cutting and making all types of garments; and in this work particularly the Malay is said to excel. A member of a high-class tailoring establishment at Singapore visits the school once a week and has commented very favourably on the standard of work done.\n\nBoth the carpentry and tailoring sections have a scheme whereby students, during their training, can, by industry, accumulate some capital with which to start business. All afternoon work is voluntary, and during this time all work for which payment is received is carried out. After paying for materials plus 10%, the students working on any job are credited with a proportion of the profits, depending on seniority and the number of hours worked. The student is only entitled to this money on satisfactory completion of his course.\n\nIt is contemplated that, on setting up for themselves, these boys will be assisted by a subsidy of work from the Government until they are well established.\n\n(8) FUTURE DEVELOPMENT.\n\nUntil there is a revival in rubber and tin there is very little possibility of the further development of the Trade School system in the Federated Malay States. The importance of handwork is, however, not being lost sight of, and all schools, both for boys and girls, are introducing handicraft classes as soon as may be convenient.\n\nIn the Straits Settlements it is worthy of note that the Trade School vote, large as it is, was the only one which was not challenged on presentation of the last Estimates. Indeed, the general interest shown by the community in this development is very great, much space being devoted in the press to discussion as to the lines which should be followed. Such an interest can only arise from a strong belief in the value of the training received, and should be of great help to boys seeking employment.\n\nAt Singapore a vigorous policy of expansion is probable. Over 30,000 houses exist without modern sanitation, and these are to be converted in due course. There is a great dearth of plumbers in Singapore and a branch school specialising in plumbing is to be opened. It is proposed that only plumbers holding a municipal certificate be allowed to undertake the foregoing work, the standard required for the compulsory trade test being set by the Trade School, whose staff will conduct the examination on which the required certificate will be issued. A School of Building is also proposed, but this is at present in abeyance, there being a very close \"Building Ring\" in the Straits. The training of overseers and inspectors for the Public Works Department is a possible side issue.\n\nConsideration is being given to the training of boys in such trades as printing, bookbinding, sign writing and the other activities which come under the headings of \"Arts and Crafts\".\n\nAn endeavour is also being made to establish a School of Electrical Engineering. It is recognised that this will require very delicate treatment as the gap between the Electrical Fitter and the Electrical Engineer is very large and almost impossible to bridge, unless the student has a first-class general education. The Electrical Fitter would probably be recruited from boys who have done two years' Trade School and then two years' Specialised work on electrical machines, instruments, cables, installation, etc. The demand for this class of work is at present not great, but the future large requirements of the Naval Base should be carefully gauged. Some degree of specialising in wireless repair would probably be financially sound, but a large amount of blackboard work, possibly as evening classes, would be essential for the sound working of an Electrical Engineering Branch of the Trade School.\n\nA new Trade School is about to be opened in Malacca, but it is not yet decided what form this school will take.\n\n(9) SUMMARY OF SALIENT POINTS.\n\n(1) There is no special pre-apprenticeship system in Malaya.\n\n(2) There is no permanent resident population with an industrial tradition from which to draw pupils.\n\n(3) The standard of education required of entrants to Trade Schools is high.\n\n(4) Age of Trade School entrants is about 15—16.\n\n(5) The Trade Schools supply a complete apprenticeship.\n\n(6) The standard of skill is extremely high.\n\n(7) The automobile repair trade is well adapted to the Trade School System.\n\n(8) Passed students are specially suitable for accurate work such as is required for aircraft or armaments.\n\n(9) Students now in employment are very satisfactory.\n\n(10) The cost per head is not excessive.\n\n(11) Local opinion favours extension of the Trade School Scheme.\n\n(12) The Straits Settlements contemplate Schools of Electrical Engineering, Plumbing, Building and \"Arts & Crafts\".\n\n(13) The Commercial value of English is high.\n\n(14) The Special and Ordinary apprenticeships of the P.W.D. and F.M.S.R. are worth study.\n\n(15) The Technical School at Kuala Lumpur is well organised for its purpose. The contact with \"practice\" is excellent.\n\n(16) The engagement of Trade School boys at Central Workshops as improvers should be followed closely.\n\n(10) THE TRADE SCHOOL SYSTEM AS IT AFFECTS HONG KONG.\n\n(The Marginal Notes refer to previous reports No. 1-The Inauguration of the Junior Technical School, No. 2-The Apprenticeship System in Hong Kong.)\n\n38",

        "content_text": "involve criminality and certainly involve official misconduct, is not easy. Sir Alison Russell deals fully with the point in paragraph 6 of his printed notes on disciplinary proceedings of which a copy is attached. If my memory serves, that paragraph was re-written in its present form in 1936 - i.e. after the incidents now being considered and it represents current practice and views. Even Sir Alison found it impossible to lay down any rigid rule. The very wording of the paragraph reflects the difficulty of the choice between the two procedures and I do not think that any criticism need be offered on the decision taken here. The reason given for it (namely, that prosecution was unlikely to succeed) may not have been entirely sound but the offence was, to my mind, so much a Service matter that the initiation of proceedings under old Colonial Regulation 46 were justified.\n\nAnother point raised by the petitioner is the allegation (see paragraph 18) that his being passed over for promotion is in effect another punishment for the offence for which he was reprimanded six years ago. Such double punishment as a deduction from pension for an offence for which increments were withheld or salary was reduced at the time of the offence are always deprecated but clearly a Colonial Government when considering promotion (particularly promotion to the highest grade open to an officer) can fairly take into account the whole of his record. I agree, therefore, that on this point also there is no cause for intervention.\n\nThe reply might be as Mr. Gent proposes but asking that, if the Governor agrees, the petitioner",

Sir A.\n\nIn the present case it appears from paragraph 3 of No.1 (a) that the Attorney General held that there was not sufficient evidence to justify the institution of criminal proceedings, and (b) that the Governor considered that there was not sufficient evidence to justify the appointment of a Committee to enquire into the matter under Colonial Regulation 42 (now Colonial Regulation 68). The Attorney General, however, goes on to say that the Governor at the material time held that the petitioner's action was reprehensible in a high degree, and that his intentions in the whole incident had been open to grave suspicion; and that accordingly he severely reprimanded the petitioner.\n\nThis seems to me to have been irregular and not in accordance with Colonial Regulation 42. That regulation laid it down that, if the officer failed to exculpate himself to the satisfaction of the Governor, \"the Governor shall appoint a Committee to enquire into the matter;\" and, having regard to the facts set out above, it seems clear (1) that the petitioner did not exculpate himself to the satisfaction of the Governor, and consequently (2) that a Committee should have been appointed to enquire into the matter before any punishment was awarded. I was punished without a \"trial\" (a Committee of Enquiry formed, as the Younus puts it).\n\nIn these circumstances, I do not think that the petitioner should have been reprimanded; and I hope that the opportunity will now be taken to put the matter right by",

Promotion was, however, denied to him on the grounds that his conduct in connection with an incident which occurred in 1933 was not such as to inspire complete confidence in his trustworthiness.

The details of the incident above-mentioned are set out in the Colonial Secretary's letter of 15th May, 1933. Mr. Badan Singh's reply to the charges brought against him is shown in his letter of 27th May, 1933, to the Colonial Secretary. It was considered that criminal proceedings against Mr. Badan Singh would be unlikely to succeed and, in consequence, action was taken under Colonial Regulation No. 42. Sir William Peel held that there was insufficient ground for proceeding to trial by a committee of the Executive Council but that Mr. Badan Singh's intentions in the whole incident were open to grave suspicion and that the action he had taken was reprehensible in a high degree. He was accordingly severely reprimanded and was ordered to repay to Government the sum of $847.26 which was held to be due by him in respect of the two return passages to India.\n\n4. It is not my intention that this officer's deficiencies, as shown by the incident referred to above, should be held against him indefinitely: if his confidential reports continue to be good he will be given due consideration for promotion when a vacancy for which he should be considered occurs. A vacancy in the Higher Class of the Junior Clerical Service is likely to occur early in 1940. Mr. Badan Singh's claims to fill that vacancy will again be fully considered: but I think it unlikely that if he then gains advancement I shall be favourably disposed towards ante-dating this step.\n\nI have the honour to be,\nSir,\nYour most obedient, humble servant,\nGovernor.\n\n14",

That at the beginning of this year there were five vacant posts to be filled by promotion in the Higher Class of the Junior Clerical Service of this Colony;\n\n2. That, as third in the next lower grade (Class I) Your Petitioner felt certain of promotion, as he was aware that during his more than thirty-three years of loyal and faithful service he had at all times received the commendation of the Heads of the Departments in which he had served;\n\n3. That it was, therefore, a great blow to him when, on the announcement of the promotions, it was found that he had been passed over by officers junior to him in Class I;\n\n4. That this was especially embarrassing to him because of the position which he had for years occupied in the Indian community of this Colony; since 1932 he has been President of the Khalsa Diwan (Sikh Temple), the General Committee of which is recognized by Government and the public as the representative body of the large Sikh community; for years he has been Vice-President of the Indian Recreation Club, which several years ago honoured him by electing him a life member; he is a Past President of the Kowloon Indian Tennis Club; been President of the Guru Nanak Bathing Club since its inception; is Vice-President of a Committee organised by all sections of the Indian community of the Colony for the reception and entertainment of distinguished Indian visitors, and is President of a Committee representative of the Indian Civil Servants of this Colony;",

That immediately following the announcement of the promotions, he addressed a letter to the Honourable Colonial Secretary, appealing for promotion to the Higher Class, pointing out that as most of the members of that Class were younger than he and as there was no immediate prospect of further vacancies occurring in that Class, there was no hope of advancement for him before his retirement; he is now 54 years of age and has been looking forward to retirement soon after attaining the age of 56;\n\n7. That his letter to the Honourable Colonial Secretary concluded thus: - \"I therefore most respectfully submit this appeal for your special consideration, and request that after the question of my loss of promotion and the points in connection therewith have been reviewed, I may be awarded my due place in seniority. Should this be impossible, then I request that I be informed of the points on which I may have failed to merit the recommendation of my superior officers\";\n\n8.

D.P.W. for recommendation to the Government for promotion by special consideration.\n\nIn support of my application I have the honour to lay the following for your favourable consideration:-\n\n1. By comparison of 1920 and 1930 Civil Service Lists it could be observed that I have been superseded by some of the juniors since 1920; which I believe would either be due to an oversight or my appointment being in a small department (i.e. Royal Observatory) for a considerable period and not considered so important as that of the others in other departments. Notwithstanding I have been called upon to perform the duties of Senior European Officers during the Great War as well as now and then thereafter in that department without any extra remuneration or consideration of promotion for 14 years for extra service done there.\n\n2. Since the death of the late Mr. Cheng Cheuk Hin (the Senior Clerk of this department) in 1929 much more has been added to my work as well as that to the responsibility, which binds me to work even overtime to cope with the work without any request for extra remuneration but with hope of special consideration.\n\n3. Since my transfer to this department in 1927, I have been directly working under you up to this date, so my work as well as competency of working is not a secret to you, and hardly require a repetition here.\n\n4. I am the only worker out of my family of 8 persons, and most of them being children, who are pursuing their studies in various schools, my pecuniary matters are now hand to mouth only and which may develop into dilapidation at any moment without the consideration requested.\n\n5. Moreover with due reference to progress of my previous promotion once after 14 years, I can foresee nothing to help or",

Thomas Cook & Son, as at each port their Agents would call on board the steamer on arrival and attend to the requirements of passengers, who had been booked by them at the port of embarkation. This would be of great assistance to my wife and children, who would be travelling without me for the first time. This was the only reason why I decided to book through Messrs. Thomas Cook & Son. I accordingly approached them for a quotation in order to apply to the Government for a refund of the amount due to me for three passages.\n\nI received the quotation in question on or about 22nd January and put in my application of the 26th January, 1932, in the usual way, in hope of getting payment of the passage allowance before the date of sailing, about 9th February, on which date the first possible steamer was scheduled to leave for Calcutta.\n\nI was not in a position to pay more than the $560 in cash, and therefore issued to Messrs. Thomas Cook & Son a cheque of $1,200 for the part balance, post-dated 15th February, as I hoped to get the Government allowance before that date.\n\nLater, however, when I informed the clerk at Messrs. Thomas Cook & Son that the passage would be required for the 9th February, he stated that they could not be issued unless full payment was made by the sailing date. As the Government allowance was not yet forthcoming, I consulted with my wife, who expressed the wish to go herself, the children to follow on the next or possible steamer with our relative named Bhagwan Singh, who was expected from America at an early date by one of the Empress boats.\n\nMy wife left for India on the 10th February, and as the Government allowance for passages was not yet received, ten days later, and as Bhagwan Singh had already arrived and was definitely leaving by S.S. \"Sirdhana\" on the 24th February, I handed the attached letter to the Superintendent of Accounts and Stores on the 20th February enquiring when the passage money would be received.\n\nMr. Anderson informed me that he would enquire from",

Bhagwan Singh left by the S.S. \"Sirdhana\" on that date.\n\n$1438.89.\n\nOn the 11th March, I received the Government cheque for $1438.89. I was uncertain what to do with it, and because of that, I did not pay it into my account at the bank for several days until the 17th March. I then decided that I should retain the whole amount as about the beginning of the second week in March, I had received a letter from my wife informing me that she was \"with child\" and requesting me to come to India with the children before the date on which she would give birth. I therefore decided that I should go about six or seven months later, but that I would send on the children as early as possible as only the amah was left to look after them all day while I was in the office, my eldest daughter being in school at St. Mary's Convent.\n\nIn the hope of being able to arrange for passages for my children, in case a friend or relation from our village was going to India, I left my cheque for $1200 with Messrs. Thomas Cook & Son and did not withdraw it until they requested me to do so in a letter dated the 23rd April 1932.\n\nI would here mention that recovery of the unexpended sum of $847.26 has at no time been jeopardised; a request for a statement of my credits in the banks would have been sufficient to prove that. Up to the date of my sailing for India, I was expecting to have to pay out this sum at any moment for my children's passages.\n\nWhen my wife found that the children did not arrive with Bhagwan Singh, she became very uneasy in mind, knowing that they could not receive proper attention while I was in office all day. She therefore suddenly decided to return without completing the business for which she went to India, and she actually arrived in Hong Kong about the middle of May, before I had any knowledge that...",

It was decided that I should take with me my eldest daughter and the two children age 10 and 8, whom my daughter could look after on the voyage and in India, while my wife would remain here with the youngest daughter age 6 and the two boys age 13 and 11. These boys are attending school at St. Joseph's College and we wished to avoid a break in their studies by not taking them to India. In any case, I could not have afforded to pay their passages and my wife's second return passage.\n\nI decided not to leave for India until my wife gave birth. A child was born on the 8th September. Then I decided to ask for leave in October, but Mr. Tang Shing Cheung, senior clerk of the Account Office, also wished to go on four weeks' leave from the 1st November, and as I would be absent for a long period and he could not get leave while I was away, he asked me to postpone my leave until his return. I agreed and I was in charge of my own office and Mr. Tang's while he was on leave in November.\n\nA few days after Mr. Tang's return, Mr. Yung Yuk Tong, senior clerk in the Store, went seriously sick and Mr. Tang was sent to the Store to take his place. My leave had therefore to be further delayed.\n\nEarly in December, I received a letter from my brother requesting me to go to India on an urgent matter in connection with my own family. This was quite a different matter from my wife's family affairs.\n\nWithin a few days, as Mr. Tang was still in the Store at this time, and I realised that it was almost essential that I should not be absent from the office when the final accounts for the year were being passed and closed in December, I decided not to leave until 22nd January, and on the 17th December, I forwarded my application for leave from that date. It has been pointed out to me that in this letter of application, I stated that my \"dependants\" had recently returned from India. Of course, my wife only had returned. The sentence",

It will be understood that the remaining \"dependants\" who were to stay behind in Hong Kong were doing so because she had returned. In that paragraph, I was not dealing with passages, but was asking that my dependants who were remaining behind should be permitted to draw my rent allowance.\n\nAlready I applied for a passage for myself only as I had received the Government allowance on account of my children and intended to book their passages myself as soon as I received notice that my own passage had been booked by the Government. It was not until about the 19th January (three days before the date of my departure) that I was informed that the passage had been booked, and at the same time, I was given my return ticket. My youngest child (born in September) had been taken seriously ill three or four days earlier, and when I informed my wife that I had received my passage ticket and would book passages next day for our eldest daughter and the two children, age 10 and 8, she absolutely refused to allow our daughter to accompany me to India, as she said she needed her help after her school hours and for part of the night in attending to our sick child. Up to the last moment, I hoped that the child would recover sufficiently to allow my eldest daughter to accompany me, but the child's condition grew worse, and I was obliged to sail alone on the 22nd January (Sunday). My two young children could not travel without my eldest daughter. On the day after my departure (23rd January), my child was taken into the French Hospital, where he remained for some 10 or 12 days. He never properly recovered and on the 1st March, he died at the French Hospital, to which he had been readmitted about two weeks earlier.\n\nIt will be seen that it was out of the question for me to arrange for a refund of the Government allowance towards the children's passages at the last moment on the date of my sailing, so I decided to leave the whole matter for adjustment on my return, which would",

List, page 78), Senior Clerk in the Accounts Office of this Department, appealing against the recent decision of the Subordinate Staff Sub-Committee in passing him over for promotion to the Higher Class.\n\n2\\. Mr. Badan Singh is No. 3 in Class I, and I am informed that the officers recently promoted to fill the five vacancies in the Higher Class were Nos. 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7.\n\n3\\. I have not come into contact very much with Mr. Badan Singh, but all reports which I have received on his work from Mr. Anderson, late Supt. Accounts & Stores, and Mr. Bendall, the present Accountant have invariably been good. I would invite your special attention to his Confidential Report card: over the last ten years he has been reported on as an officer \"of marked ability\", \"a very capable officer\", \"an efficient officer of outstanding ability\", \"a very valuable officer, who carried out responsible duties with tact and foresight\". In 1936 he was \"strongly recommended on merit\" for the Higher Class (for which he has now been passed over by four officers), and in the following year (1937) he was recommended for accelerated promotion. In fact, the reports on this officer had been so good over so long a period that Mr. Bendall did not, as he explains in his covering minute, attached, consider it necessary last December to make a special recommendation for accelerated promotion, since Mr. Badan Singh was No. 3 in his Class and it was known that there were five vacancies to be filled.\n\n1\\. With regard to B on page 2 of the Record of Service attached to Mr. Badan Singh's appeal, I would refer you to Mr. Anderson's report of 6.11.36 on the Confidential Report card, in which he stated that this officer was \"doing splendid work\" in the Stores.\n\n5\\. I have no information as to why an officer of Mr. Badan Singh's standing should have been passed over.\n\nPage 50\nPage 51",

D.P.W.**\n\nApplication from Mr. Badan Singh, Senior Clerk in the Accounts Office, submitted.\n\n2.\n\nBy the omission of the word \"accelerated\" in the last confidential report on the services of this officer, I might possibly have been responsible for his loss of promotion. This omission on my part was deliberate. I was aware that five vacancies existed in the Higher Class, and that Mr. Singh was third in order of seniority. I held the view that whilst \"acceleration\" was impossible, a delay in promotion only should be obviated. My report was therefore phrased in words which, in view of C.S.O. Circular No. 44/37 might appear adequate to obtain for this officer his normal turn for promotion. Nevertheless, I would hesitate to recommend any officer for accelerated promotion on this period alone.\n\n3.\n\nI have been in charge of the Accounts Section since 1st June last, and my report covered less than five months' knowledge of his work. This would at once destroy the value of the special recommendations if reports were written in red ink to obtain normal advancement.\n\nThe remarks at A on page 2 of the enclosure to Mr. Singh's application can be fully supported. You are aware that, after the division of the Accounts and Stores Staff, the Accounts section was labouring under a very severe handicap, and in view of the wide experience of Mr. Badan Singh, he was recalled (22nd July, 1938) by Mr. Anderson from the Stores Department, to assume the duties of Senior Clerk in the Accounts Office. He has carried out these duties very satisfactorily and due to his excellent supervisory work, the handicap has now disappeared.\n\n4.\n\n5.\n\nThis officer is worthy of further advancement, and I submit for consideration the question of his being placed in...",

In this connection, we suggest that the new circumstances will offer the possibility of considering the establishment as part of a long-term educational policy, of a University in Malaya, at or near Kuala Lumpur, which we consider would have distinct advantages from the educational point of view.\n\n18. Finally we recommend that an expert be appointed to examine and report on the educational buildings and equipment available as soon as practicable and that his report should be available for, and that he should be a member of, the Commission of Enquiry proposed, in paragraph 10 above.\n\n+\n\n2",

Our attention was drawn to the report of the Commission on Higher Education in Malaya, 1939, and we were advised that the Secretary of State had, in 1943, proposed that a policy of development along the lines favoured by that Commission should be adopted as soon as conditions permitted.

Hong Kong University be revived as soon as practicable to serve the immediate needs of Hong Kong, priority being given to the Medical and Engineering faculties, the Arts faculty being reconstituted primarily for students for the teaching profession (para. 11).\n\n2. A number of scholarships to Hong Kong University be made available to Chinese students in China (para. 12).",
