consult their v/ives on any secret or confidential official matters, but in your case I have no such objection. In fact, very much the reverse, for not only is your wife completely au fait with Colony matters but you have no one else with whom you can talk things over. Please therefore consider yourself v^free to show her anything that you wish,
l.|.. There is nothing I should like better than to say
"goodbye" to Clarke, but until and unless we can get someone competent to take over as Treasurer, I do not see how we can afford to let him go. Ackland in the Fiji Audit Department
I •
was, I believe, your choice for the Treasurer, but he is ear marked for promotion to the Fiji Treasury'-, if you have any other bright ideas, please let me know. There would not be
•
^uch point in getting any one from Australia or Hew Zealand
because he would be ignorant of government procedue. It therefore rather looks as though we shall have to carry . Clarke for another six months, i f not a year,
5» I am interested to learn that you aspire to take over from Vaskess when he goes, I have had word privately from Jeffries that they are considering Fox-Strangways for a transfer, but nothing definite yet. Hy idea was, if Pox- Strangways left, to recommend you for the post of P.esident Commissioner. As regards Secretary, V/, P. H, C. , I had intended
to get an Administrative officer with secretariat experience from another Colony, with the idea that he should remain from 3 to 3 yeaaJs with us. He would, of course, require as
Assistant Secretary someone with exqierienoe in either the
r
- 2 -
G. & E.I.G. or the Solomons. This would be very much in line with Colonial Secretary-ships. I should be glad of your views, particularly as regards yourself.
6. In your letter, v/hen referring to the question of Bauro's status, you say "it raises questions I had wanted
to mention but felt I should not". I must take you to
task over this.' and would refer you to the second and third sentences of my letter of the 7th December. A Governor or High Commissioner is in rather anf^isolated position and unless
his senior officers t e l l him everything he may make bad mistakes because he does not know the backgrouvid or what is
really at the root of any particular trouble. .

moving
and
Details as to methods, literature, parr^jhlets,
luuviug pictures, appliances and pharmaceutical products will he gladly supplied hy
The Family Planning Association 69 Eccleston Square
London, S.'T.I .
Planned Parenthood Federation of America, 501 Madison Avenue,
Hew York City, 22.
The moving picture is an excellent method to put
the matter before rnidwives and nurses who work among the mothers and are trusted hy them. The midwives and district nurses in Beruiuda are unanimous in their approval of hirth control, hut i t is not easy to g'et a great number of women, even UJhen they have had several children, to attend a clinic.
I t is advisable that the clinic he in conjunction with other services - i.e. an outpatient dispensary, or a children's service, so that attendance is not noticeable. Some women are shy, and some husbands object. The better the personnel of the c l i n i c the b e t t e r the work done there. A doctor will
do better than a nurse, nevertheless a good nurse can do an excellent job, but, in either case, time is needed, probably a half hour on the patient's initial visit and a synpatheiic attitude. And however good the service and clear the
explanations and demonstration many of the women will simply forget to do v/hat they are told. Nevertheless negro women can learn and some can persist. They are all interested.
Birth control facilities have been available in Bermuda for ten years, with the appliances at cost for those
who can. pay and free for those who cannot, yet the economicallj,
poorer women who attend are still counted by dozens rather than
hundreds.
The Roman Catholic Church objects, but nonnives in Puerto Rico. The Anglican Church countenances it, but
obstruction has been offered in Bermuda by the local bishop.
The other Churches approve. Some of the older ladies of
"Selfare Societies have objected, fearing the promotion of promiscuity among the v/omen. Birth control, however, is no offset to illegitimacy. "/e wish i t were, for the
illegitimate rate is 23/j of all births and were it reduced three quarters there would be no gross population problem on
this island. "Birth Control" has been superseded and rightly
by "planned parenthood".
After a decade 7/e feel the b i r t h control service i s a good one. The women are attending more freely and less opposition is voiced by the elderly ladies. Naturally i t is promoted by education and a higher scale of living. The medical practitioners, for the most part, assist in the
worlc and make use of our appliances.

May, 1946.
Salary and Expenses while on. duty In Bngland and the U.S.A.
During loy recent visit to London and Washington on official duty I not only had to incur expanses amounting to
over ;il,000, hut sustained a nott loss of LF.63«13s.11d. through
the difference hetweaa my ealary and allowanoes ae Acting
Resident Co-tQiasloner (iS?.1,400) and that in my auhstantive position (DP, 1,090). !i^ wife continued of necessity to live in the Residency at Tarawa throughout this period, so the
exi>ensea of maintaining the estahlishnent there were scarcely, i f at all, lowered. Furthermore, owing to it not being possible to give me any advance notice, I had no thick clothes whatsoever with me and had to expend approximately ;^.230 on the purchase of essential winter kit, much of whicli is not required by me, being a duplication of clothes already possessed and in
storage at ^uva.
2. In view of the above, and the special nature of the woIk on which X was engage, I would respectfully enquire whether favourable consideration might be given to the following requests:^
(a) that X might be regarded ae seoonded for the tour on my acting salary as Resident Commissioner (l1,160 plus
£90 « £1,230)j .
(h) that subsistence allowance mi£^t be paid to me wliile on
tour at the rates applicable to members of the Home lyil g?rvioe pay^ing offiolal vieits: as set out at
13^ in C,P.P.309}
(•) that my salary might be payable in sterling ourrenoy,
the tour being entirely in sterling or dollar ourrenoyareaa}
(d) that the usual separation Allowance mi^t be payable
daring such time as X am coinpuleorily separated from xoy family; and(s) that the Oovemment might either zHsfund a percentage of
the expensee inourred in purchasing olothss at hig^American prioes or alternatively agree to repurohass a reasonable proportion of the olothse whleh Z was eenpeUed to obtain for the ;}oumay;
3. Partloulars of olslms, based on the rates mentioned aboTS, are annexed#<for eorutiz^ and supporting reeeipts for those Items for whidti dockets were obtainable are in Black Jaskst attaehed.
