COLONIAL SERVICE
EXAM. SYSTEM ABANDONED,
RUGBY, Tuesday
The Colonial Office announces it has been decided to discontinue the competitive examination hitherto held annually for cadetships in Malaya and ITong-Kong, and to adopt the method of appointment already in force for the Colonial service generally. This decision marks a stage toward the unified Colonial Service envisaged by the Warren Fisher Committee’s report of two years ago, and the final abandonment, where it stilt exists, of the system of competitive examination in favour of the personal selection of candidates by men familiar with the special needs of the service. No "decision has been reached as to the future method of recruitment for the Ceylon Civil Service.—(British Official Wireless).
