940W
§ Mr. FORSTERCaptain Fricker's salary is £150 a year, and in addition the Sussex Territorial Force Association may pay him a war bonus at the rate of £60 a year. The salaries of officers of Territorial Associations are subject, under Regulation, to the control of the Army Council; and the action of the War Office in this case has been guided by the salaries paid under similar circumstances by other associations. The correspondence on the question is, however, not yet completed.
