It lacks coherent sentences and proper formatting.\n\n## Step 2: Identify potential corrections and reformat the text.\nUpon closer inspection, it's clear that the text is heavily corrupted. However, without a clear understanding of the original content, corrections are challenging.\n\n## Step 3: Apply the rules for OCR proofreading.\nGiven the rules, the task is to correct spelling errors, fix spacing issues, rejoin broken sentences, and restore paragraph breaks without rephrasing or rewriting the content.\n\n## Step 4: Process the text according to the rules.\n1. The text starts with \"Treasury\" and \"Baristen,\" which could be correct or incorrect due to OCR errors.\n2. The sentence \"The Munster corcist hie hufessio formed minden als refects in 319 of concretle high operim Solector de of green leat abiles bemenenen, alternate perfects of Wishing you all mucouss success at the Bana\" is likely a jumbled mix of words. Potential corrections could involve \"The Munster correspondent\" or similar, but the rest of the sentence is unclear.\n3. \"From hote late fatte, my long acgeranton Blend way parties ales de fran bim & bisher Thoma Fretthets jeun de Mileges 2.C. permitte to add th\" seems to be another corrupted sentence.\n4. The final line \"I knew no home able\" could be a fragment of a sentence.\n\n## Step 5: Correct and reformat the text.\nGiven the heavy corruption and the rules to not rephrase or rewrite, a direct correction is challenging. However, basic formatting can be applied.\n\nThe best answer is: \nTreasury\n\nBaristen\n\n1. aho\n\nThe Munster correspondent ... formed ... in 319 of concrete high ... of green leaf ... alternate ... Wishing you all ... success at the ...\n\nFrom ... late ..., my long ... Blend ... parties ... de ... bim & ... Thoma ... jeun de Mileges 2.C. permitted to add ...\n\nI knew no ... able\n\nHowever, to strictly follow the format requested in the prompt, the output should be in HTML. Thus, the final output is already provided at the beginning.",

Then defendant said very well, let him make some money\". This Conversation was in his dining room about 2 p.m. I went back and Saw Sam Yun, and told him that defendant accepted. In speaking to Jaugham and Sam Yuu I described defendant as No. 12. I did not go back and See Sam You, but I Saw Tang Kam and told him Defendant had accepted, And I told him to Collect the money from Sam Yun and hand it over. The first payment was on a Monday - the 20th or 21st March. Sam Yun was to pay $1.10 of which I was to have 10 cents. Of the dollar that remained, 10 cents was to be given to the boy who goes and collects it. That was A Loy my servant boy. Tang Kam also had a servant boy named Ah Pui, by whom he sent money to me sometimes. I kept the 10 cents for the two boys. Sometimes I went for the money myself, sometimes the boy went, and sometimes Tang Kam's boy brought it. As to the other sums of $5.50, Chan Chi paid it. I had nothing to do personally with the arrangements about this sum. Jang Kum paid it to me and I gave it to defendant. The two payments commenced on the same day and they went up to the same date.\n\nFrancis Henry May, recalled - in answer to her Robinson, states. Inspector Mann, No. 89, was on leave from the 20th June, 1895, to the 1st June, 1896. When he resumed duty he took charge of the Eastern district, Wanchai, and has remained there until the present time. As to Acting Inspector Hall - No 91 - he took charge of Shaukiwan on the 11th December, 1895, and he has remained there up to the present time. [Statement of services of Inspectors Mann & Hall put in and marked D.J.]\n\nThemp Con, x rxd. Continued.\n\nAt the Police Court I made a statement as to the conversation between defendant and myself on 11th March. I did not tell the Magistrate that Jang Kam told Sam Yun in my presence about that Conversation.\n\nThe",

        "content_text": "## ROMAN CATHOLIC SERVICE\n\nSimultaneously with the service at St. John's Cathedral, a special service took place at the Roman Catholic Cathedral. The spacious building was filled with a devout congregation, and the proceedings were of a solemnity and impressiveness that affected all worshippers and helped them to realise the importance of the great event. Low Pontificial Mass was celebrated by his Lordship Bishop Pozzoui, assisted by Monsignor P. de Maria, Rev. L. Robert, and Rev. Father Noval, while the Rev. G. M. Spada and the Rev. A. Placzek were Masters of Ceremonies, the former acting for the clergy and the latter for the congregation. The order of service was as follows:\n\n* Coronation March, Rich Eilenberg, by members of the Sociedade Philharmonica, conducted by Prof. F. Gonzales.\n* Mass of the Day with collect for the Elected King.\n* During the Mass the following music was rendered:\n\t+ Veni Creator, German Core, by the Cathedral choir and friends.\n\t+ Andante Religioso, Francis Thome, by the Sociedade Philharmonica.\n\t+ Sanctus, Perosi, by the Cathedral choir.\n\t+ Largo e Mesto, Beethoven, by the Sociedade Philharmonica.\n* During the benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, the following hymns were sung:\n\t+ O Salutaris, Webb, by the Cathedral choir.\n\t+ Te Deum, Gregorian, by the choir and clergy.\n\t+ Tantum Ergo, G. Mercanti, by the Cathedral choir.\n\t+ Laudate Dominum, by the choir and friends.\n* The service closed with the singing of \"God save the King,\" by the choir, clergy, and congregation, accompanied by the band of the Sociedade Philharmonica.\n\n## THE JEWISH SERVICE\n\nAt the special service held in the Ohel Leah Synagogue, the following prayer was offered after the sermon and the opening of the Ark:\n\nAlmighty God and everlasting King! From the place of Thy habitation Thou lookest upon all the indwellers of the earth. By Thee kings reign and princes rule. Thou establishest their throne, and in Thy hand is their glory and their might.\n\nPrayer for the King and the Royal Family,\n\nMay He who giveth salvation unto kings and dominion unto princes, Whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, Who delivered His servant David from the hurtful sword, Who maketh a way in the sea and a path in the mighty waters - may He bless, protect and exalt our Sovereign Lord, King George, Our Gracious Queen Mary, Alexandra, the Queen Mother, Edward, Prince of Wales, and all the Royal Family.\n\nMay the Supreme King of Kings in His mercy preserve the King, guard him, and deliver him from all trouble, sorrow and hurt. May He make his enemies fall before him, and in whatsoever he undertaketh may he prosper. May the Supreme King of Kings in His mercy put a spirit of wisdom and understanding into his heart and into the hearts of all his counsellors, that they may uphold the peace of the realm, advance the welfare of the nation, and deal kindly and truly with all Israel. In his days and in ours may Judah be saved and Israel dwell securely; and may the Redeemer come unto Zion. O that this may be His will, and let us say, Amen.\n\nThe Ark was then closed.\n\n## THE PARSEE SERVICE\n\nAlmost all the members of the Parsee Community were present at their Club premises at the corner of Elgin and Shelley Streets at 4 p.m. in the afternoon for a religious service. A special prayer was recited by the Priest, the whole congregation remaining standing. The following is the translation of the prayer from Gujarati:\n\n1. Blessed be the name of Holy Abura-Mazda! Almighty Abur-Mazda, Holy, Heavenly, Pure; give ear, we beseech Thee, to the prayers of Thy Mazdayaçnian servants, and satisfy us with Thy Mercy.\n2. Receive our heartfelt thanks, O Almighty God, that Thou art pleased this day to set a peerless crown upon the head of our Gracious Sovereign, King Emperor George.\n3. Vouchsafe to him, Merciful Creator, Thy majesty. Thou hast set Thy servant, George, upon the throne of his fathers. Thou knowest his heart, that it has ever been his desire and happiness to seek the welfare of his people and to execute Thy laws in the land.\n\nBehold, the day hath come that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it, the day on which he has been anointed King, when the crown of sovereignty has been placed upon his head, the day when he lifted up his hand to heaven and took the oath, that he would rule over his people according to the Statutes of the realm, and cause Law and Justice in Mercy to be executed.\n\nTherefore we have come into Thy house, and worship toward Thy holy temple. Hearken unto the voice of our cry, our King and our God, for unto Thee do we pray. May it please Thee to bless our Sovereign Lord the King: O God, save the King! May the King live! May the King live for ever! May Thine arm strengthen him to bear the heavy yoke of governance.\n\nEven as Thou hast set a diadem of fine gold upon his head, so crown him with honour and glory, with mercy and loving-kindness. Anoint him with the oil of gladness. Vouchsafe unto him the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of knowledge and fear of Thee, so that all the nations that dwell beneath his sceptre, the sceptre of righteousness, may abide in peace and tranquillity.\n\nPour out the riches of Thy heavenly goodness upon Queen Mary, who standeth at the right hand of the King in gracious majesty. Verily on her tongue is the law of kindness. Her eyes are upon the poor and upon those that are bruised in spirit. Her heart goeth out to those that are stretched upon the bed of languishing. Give her the desire of her heart, and do not withhold the request of her lips. Bless the Queen Mother, Heir Apparent, and all the members of the Royal House.\n\nWithdraw not, we beseech Thee, Thy loving-kindness from this realm. Shield the indwellers thereof. Remove from them pestilence, sword, famine and sorrow. Spread the days when peace will flourish throughout the world, when the earth will be full of the knowledge of Thee, as the waters cover the sea.\n\nGrant unto our Sovereign Lord the King, the spirits of heavenly piety, as also Thy spirit of wisdom for his guide and Thy arm for his strength, so that in his godliness, and in his unfained spirit of wisdom and strength, Justice, Truth, Peace and Love may flourish in his days to promote the well-being, solidarity and unity of his various subjects of all classes and creeds.\n\n4. We pray unto Thee, O Merciful Mazda, to bestow upon our illustrious Sovereign splendour and glory, health, vigour and victoriousness of body, wealth which may bring all prosperity, a long line of descendants gifted with intelligence, a long life and the best, brilliant and glorious life of the Pious.\n\n5. We beseech Thee, O Bountiful Giver of all Good, to be favourable to our ruler, and to bestow of Thy bounty upon his head the full blessings of the annihilation of famine and pestilence wherever prevailing in his wide dominions, and to endow, in his vast Empire, the happiness and cheer of fruitful peace and gladsome plenty.\n\n6. We supplicate Thee, O Merciful Creator, to crown the fulness of his days with the fulness of Thy divine blessings, grace and love, and receive our humble prayers, O Almighty God, that those and all Thy other gifts may be long continued, and crown him with immortality in the life to come.\n\n7. Listen, we pray Thee, to this earnest invocation of Thy servants of the Zoroastrian faith in Hongkong, and grant us our wishes.\n\n8. Merciful and Gracious Abura-Mazda, we again beseech Thee to give ear to our prayers and to extend Thy divine blessings, favour and love, out of Thy bounteous grace, upon our Gracious Queen Mary.\n\n[June 22, 1911]\n\n## THE PUBLIC MEETING\n\nThe public meeting to endorse the telegraphic addresses to be sent to Their Majesties took place in the City Hall shortly after noon. As was to be expected, the building was taxed to its utmost, all sections of the community being represented in the large gathering. Among those present were the American Delegates from Manila, who were accompanied by Captain Agg, K.O.Y.L.I. Sir Francis Piggott, Chairman of the Coronation Committee, on the entrance of His Excellency, proposed that the Governor preside over the meeting.\n\nHis Excellency then said: - Ladies and gentlemen, - To-day in both hemispheres, in every part of the world, and in every sea where the British flag flies, the subjects of our King are uniting to do homage and to wish him prosperity in his Coronation. They testify their loyalty and reverently and earnestly express their hopes that his reign may be long, prosperous and peaceful. To-day the Crown of his ancestors - that Crown which is the symbol of unity of the Empire - will be placed upon his head in the historic hall where a long line of British kings have been crowned, with all the pomp and circumstance of the old-time ritual. We in Hongkong do not come second to any British community in our loyalty to our King and the Throne. (Applause) We are celebrating to-day this historic event with rejoicing and with prayer. We desire to transmit to His Majesty our expressions, our heart-felt good wishes and congratulations, and our desires for his long and prosperous reign. I have, therefore, asked you to meet here in the City Hall to-day that you may hear the telegrams and addresses, and may approve them which it is proposed to send.\n\nThe Executive and Legislative Councils, in joint session with the Judges, send the following telegram:\n\nThe Executive and Legislative Councils of Hongkong, and the Judges of Hongkong, on behalf of Your Majesty's subjects in the Colony, beg most humbly to offer their loyal and respectful congratulations to You on the Occasion of the Coronation of Your Majesty as King and Emperor, and of Her Majesty Queen Mary. We pray that the event which is celebrated to-day may inaugurate a long and glorious reign for Your Majesties and an era of happiness, prosperity and honourable peace for Your Majesty's Kingdom and Empire.\n\nThe Coronation Committee, on behalf of the community, and on behalf of every race and nationality, has submitted the following telegram:\n\nHis Majesty's subjects in Hongkong present their loyal homage to the King, and the people of other nationalities within the borders of the Colony join with them in offering respectful congratulations to Their Majesties and in wishing them a long and happy reign.\n\nThe Chinese community propose to lay before the King at his Coronation at Delhi, which I hope to attend, a beautifully embroidered scroll expressing their loyalty and good wishes. The translation will be read to you presently by Mr. Chan Kai Ming.\n\nI may add that I received this morning by mail intimation from the Secretary of State that it was the intention of the King to present to this Colony portraits of himself and the Queen. (Applause)\n\nHis Excellency then asked the gathering to express their approval by holding up their hands. There was a full show of hands.\n\nMr. Ng Hon Tsz then read the Chinese address in the vernacular, and Mr. Chan Kai Ming read the translation in English as follows:\n\nTO HIS MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY GEORGE THE FIFTH\n\nBy the Grace of God, King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India, Supreme Lord in and over the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies.\n\nAll the Chinese subjects and Chinese residents in Hongkong with uplifted hands and bowed heads dutifully present this address.\n\nBoth speakers were warmly applauded. Hon. Dr. Ho Kai asked His Excellency to present the embroidered copy of the address bound in red morocco to H. M. The King.\n\nOn the call of His Excellency three hearty cheers were given for the King, and the meeting dispersed.\n\n## ADDRESS FROM THE FREEMASONS\n\nThe Masonic bodies in Hongkong are sending the following address:\n\nTo HIS MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY KING GEORGE V - By the Grace of God, King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India.\n\nThe Order of Freemasonry was cradled in that divine Faith whereof Your Majesty is the Defender, and is founded on the purest principles of piety and virtue. It teaches those heavenly principles of our duty to God, our duty to our neighbour, and our duty to ourselves, and reminds us of the constant need in our daily life of the practice of those truly kingly attributes Benevolence and Charity.\n\nThe Freemasons of this remote District rejoice greatly therefore that Your Majesty has been graciously pleased to become the Grand Patron of our Charities, and that Her Majesty the Queen has consented to be their Grand Patroness.\n\nLoyalty, Fidelity and Obedience have ever been among the watchwords of our Orders, and Your Majesty has no more devoted subjects than those who range under our banners.\n\nMay the Great Architect of the Universe grant, in His infinite wisdom, that Your Majesty's life may exceed the span of man's allotted term and that Your reign may be blessed with every Happiness for Your Majesty, for our beloved Queen Mary and for the members of Your Royal Family, and with Peace, Joy and Prosperity for Your Majesty's loyal subjects in all lands.\n\n## THE ROYAL SALUTE\n\nAt noon the warships in the harbour, both British and foreign, and the shore batteries, joined in a royal salute.\n\n## THE CORONATION PARADE\n\nOwing to the unsettled state of the weather, the review which was fixed to take place at 8 a.m. yesterday was postponed until the afternoon. The postponement proved propitious, for the rain held off and the parade was participated in and watched under pleasant weather conditions. A cloudy sky obscured the sun's rays and minimised the heat. An exceptionally large crowd surrounded the race course, and the quantity of bunting displayed gave the Valley the holiday appearance which it wears during race week. The troops were massed in the enclosure, and as they went through their preliminary evolutions presented an imposing appearance.\n\nAt four o'clock His Excellency the Governor arrived, and a royal salute was fired by the guns of two batteries, one stationed at the north, and one at the south end of the enclosure. His Excellency, accompanied by Major-General Anderson, Colonel St. John, Major Tulloch, Captain Grotton, Commodore Eyres, Captain Taylor, Captain Simson and an Indian A.D.C., inspected the troops and then returned to the saluting base. Preparations were made for the march past, and when all was in readiness the order was given, and to the strains of \"Sons of the Sea\" and regimental airs the naval brigade and the different regiments marched past in column.\n\n| Unit | Strength |\n| --- | --- |\n| Royal Marines | 513 |\n| Royal Navy | 176 |\n| Royal Garrison Artillery | 407 |\n| H.K.S.B., B.G.A. | 209 |\n| Royal Engineers | 175 |\n| K.Y.L.I. | 422 |\n| 8th Rajputs | 708 |\n| 126th Baluchis | 713 |\n| Total | 3,468 |\n\nAfter the march past the European troops were formed into a hollow square around the saluting base, with the K.O.Y.L.I. band near the flagstaff. His Excellency read the messages of congratulation and loyalty which were forwarded to the King, and then the troops raised three hearty cheers to His Majesty which reverberated among the hills.\n\nAn impressive drum head service followed. To the music of the K.O.Y.L.I. band the troops and the spectators joined in the hymn, \"O God, our help in ages past.\" Lessons were read and prayers offered by naval and military chaplains, and the service closed with the singing of the first verse of the National Anthem, in which thousands of voices joined.\n\nThe Indian regiments then gave three lusty cheers for the King, after which the troops, four deep, marched through the city to barracks.\n\n## ENTERTAINING THE CHILDREN\n\nThe school children were entertained in their various schools yesterday morning. The address of H.E. the Governor, in which he appropriately referred to the lessons of the Coronation, was read, and the medals were distributed to the children, after which they were treated to refreshments, etc.\n\n## THE DECORATIONS\n\nThe decorations were on a most extensive scale. In the harbour practically every vessel was beflagged from stem to stern, and foreign merchantmen joined with British in making a display of bunting. The Monmouth, Astræa, Flora and Tamar had a profusion of bunting, and the visiting American and Japanese gunboats contributed to the colour scheme on the water.\n\nAshore the principal decorations were on the water front, in Queen's Road, and at the various barracks. In the city the centre of attraction was Statue Square. Here various coloured standards had been erected, and from these were suspended festoons of greenery, each standard also bearing a green circle of foliage. Bannerettes also fluttered in the breeze. The buildings facing the harbour were embellished with the national colours, Japanese lanterns, etc., while practically every office showed a flag. As usual the Chinese made a brave display, and the quaint arches erected in various parts of the city were very striking indeed.\n\n## ILLUMINATIONS\n\nThe buildings on the water front and in Queen's Road were covered with lanterns which showed up very effectively. York Buildings had a beautiful frontage of red lamps, and the buildings along the Praya had their illuminations which added to the general effect. On Kowloon side the illuminated arch was very conspicuous, but the most picturesque sight was presented by the warships which were outlined with lights, the American ship _Ralston_ introducing a striking contrast with red lamps. The _Fatshan_ was hung with lamps, and smaller craft had their illuminations also. The grand scheme of illumination will not be seen until to-night.\n\nChinese fireworks were set off from the Parade Ground and in front of the Hongkong Club, and Japanese fireworks from the Public Gardens. The pyrotechnic display appealed to all sections of the community and was greatly appreciated.",

        "content_text": "# 269\n\nThe first necessity will be to determine the area at present under cultivation. On the basis of data furnished principally by the League of Nations, the Netherlands Government has compiled the following summary of coca cultivation.\n\nThe world consumption of cocaine in 1910 has been estimated at from 13,000 to 15,000 kilograms (15,000 kgs. being approximately equal to 500,000 ounces); in the years following 1910 the consumption would appear to have diminished.\n\nCoca has always been cultivated in Peru and Bolivia. Its cultivation has also been introduced into Java, Ceylon, and Formosa.\n\n(1) In Formosa, the cultivation of coca is only in its infancy (the area under cultivation is 201 hectares) and in Ceylon it is inconsiderable; the only countries which produce large quantities, therefore, are Peru, Bolivia and Java.\n\nIf it is correct that Bolivia does not export either coca leaves or raw cocaine and if we disregard the output of Japan and Ceylon, it follows that Peru and Java produce the coca leaves which form the raw material for all the cocaine manufactured in the world. In this connection there is an important difference between the two countries; cocaine can be extracted direct from the South American coca, Java coca merely yields ecgonine, from which cocaine can be manufactured synthetically. Consequently, Java coca is not used as a stimulant by the natives.\n\nIn Java, where the area under cultivation in 1922 was about 1400 hectares, the coca leaf is cultivated purely for export, whereas in Peru almost the entire output of the coca leaf (the figures are unknown) is consumed by the people of the country, who chew the leaves mixed with chalk.\n\n(1) The cultivation of coca in Hongkong, Jamaica, Zanzibar, the Cameroons, Gabun, St. Thome and Brisbane, mentioned by Hartvig in \"die onschadlichen Genussmittel\" and in the Straits Settlements is purely experimental and has at present no importance in connection with the question under consideration.",

He was under the obligation of paying the loan. You did not receive sufficient at all.\n\nThis $55,000.00 that Mrs. Brever had, where was it obtained?\n\nI would like to mention that it was explained in my Public Examination. (Explanation given as per the Public Examination, also the letter to the Directors read).\n\nWe have heard next mention as regards a competent manager which was to be appointed. There was Mr. Chow Sing Chor, he was a director of ours and held $100,000.00 worth of shares in the Company. He was the manager of several banks in Canton and they were very keen on getting him and he from time to time promised that he would do so but kept putting it off. I pestered the Directors to provide me with this manager. There was another general manager who was being considered, so that on March 22nd I gave Mr. Chow Sing Chor a last chance to accept this position of managership or refuse. He wrote a letter refusing, whereupon we invited the second man on the list and his application would be accepted. The man who was invited was compelled to put it off until after the audit of the books. He was the auditor of our firm.\n\nSince the audit, we had the Canton and Shekki trouble and so the matter lapsed.\n\nThere was never any intention of advertising in the open market, so to speak.\n\nNo, because the Directors wanted Chow Sing Chor and nobody else. They preferred to keep one interested in the bank.\n\nI do not understand how the business was carried on, but when there is practically no margin of interest between the loan and money paid in advance, it seems extraordinary that a President and ten Directors were working for love. How did they consider that a good working arrangement?\n\nThere was no attempt to make any profit out of this system of borrowing and lending money. The whole object was simply to transfer a debt which could be called upon. We made our profit working as a bank, declaring $95,000.00 net profit for the first year's working. The clerical work was very minute.\n\nI should have thought it would have been a considerable amount of work.\n\nYou must remember that the people who benefited by these transactions were the bank and not the shareholders. Because the shareholder is obligated to pay 10% not more, whereas they voluntarily offered to pay the full 100.\n\nThey gained nothing for it?\n\nThe only argument which I could induce them to do this was for the good of the firm. The directors when we started really considered the idea of building up the firm.\n\nHis Lordship:\n\nThe advantage to prospective shareholders was they expected to share all the profits of the firm.\n\nMr. Thomson: You say you had applications for $2,800,000.00 a lot of which people were willing to pay up more than 5 or 10%.",

I attach draft conson.\n\n12.12.49.\n\nHong Kong have come back to us with a quite accommodating and helpful reply and the point is whether we should as far as possible (so long as the Secretary of State's position is safeguarded) let the Governor handle the matter in the way in which he proposes or whether we should endeavour to bring Hong Kong into line with what we have proposed for the Singapore Public Service Commission. Mr. Tegetmeier's draft aims at getting Hong Kong into line with Singapore, but I should myself be disposed to leave Hong Kong to handle the matter as they wish, save that we ought to say something further to them on the subject of the superscale posts which are left within the purview of the Commission (those referred to in the latter part of paragraph 2 of the telegram).\n\nAs in the case of Singapore, we have held the view that a public statement is not really sufficient and that there must be provision in the Regulations to be made under the Bill. A public statement is soon forgotten, whereas Regulations can always be referred to. I should, therefore, be disposed to reply to the Governor that we agree to the first part of paragraph 2 of his telegram and paragraph 3 (it will be seen that the Police Adviser accepts this since he has initialled the draft on the file). We should also include in our reply, paragraph 4 of Mr. Tegetmeier's present draft, viz: the point that there should also be excluded from the Commission's purview the small groups mentioned.\n\nAs regards the junior superscale posts, however, I think we should invite the Governor to include in the Regulations to be made under the Bill, regulations such as we have asked the Singapore Government to include. This will safeguard the position fully so far as these particular posts are concerned.\n\nIf this is agreed to, some redraft of the telegram will be needed, and I think we might send the whole out to the Governor by a savingram. It will be better for him to have the Ceylon Public Service Regulations at the same time as he has our other views and the whole thing should reach him within a week or so.\n\nKwB.\n17.12.49.\n\nfor Parker.
