asked the Secretary of State for India if he has received representations of the position of the civil veterinary service of India owing to the inadequate salaries of its officers and the impossibility of retaining men of ability; if he will say what increase in pay has been generally made in this service since 1914; and if he can announce the intentions of the Government of India on this matter?

The SECRETARY of STATE for INDIA (Mr. Montagu)
