Your telegram No.1117.

Promotion to Commissioner of Police.

We agree to promotion of Eates but would greatly prefer, for reasons given in my immediately following

unild/mifer Lntpagenuul of telegram, to postpone its announcement until, say and 10

earlîn aunouureement außerlant's August unless you consider that benefit/to Police morale of early announcement is of overwhelming importance or that postponement

will five rise to unsettle speculation as to the hound succession. There would be no objection to Eates being/told in confidence that his promotion has been recommended.and

confider approved.

ing

We would be glad to have your recommendation for promotion to post of Deputy Commissioner. We see some advantage in announcing both promotions together if at all

possible.
