3. My paper as to the allowance to be drawn by the Aior Gajah Sub- 
Inspector went to you on 8th November, 1918V 
4. Ami,dolah that he wastes time and does less efficient 
work by having to Cycle out to the futher inukiias( Tanjong Kling, 
Bukit Rambei and Tanjong Minyak^ Tangga Batu and Sungei Udang) do his

work and cycle back to Malacca again‘the same night. 
5. He asks for a uniform rate of £15 a month whether in Ja 3 in or 
the Central District. 
6. I cannot recommend this but would suggest that, if possible, he 
be allowed to sleep out 6 nights during each month in the Central

complied with.
