aims Prime Minister.
A special committee some time
ago was appointed to delye into
this question regarding the Pre-
mier's. pay packet. They recon-
nended the increase, and no
doubt it will be granted in due
time.
The committee discovered that
although the Prime Minister'S
salary ranks along with that of
his other. cabineteers, neverthe-
less he has much more to do
with it. In the first place, ne
has to run No. 10 Downing
Street, a mouldy, dusty old
house, with no labor-saving de-
vices and a whole host Of secre-
taries, assistant secretaries, dep
uty assistant secretaries, messen-
ger, flunkeys, chefs and what
not.
Then there is Chequers, the
country residence. This also
takes up a large number of but
lers, footmen, gardeners, cooks
and housemaids. So when all the
wages, food bills and other house
hold expenses have been met,
there is little left for his Britanic
MajeSty's chief adviser to spend
