They're All In The Act!
When the Fiji Comptroller of Customs, Mr. R. A. Emery, re tired on May 29, the Deputy Comptroller, Mr. D. W. Logan, was appointed to act in the top job—and the move thus brought the number of Fiji senior admin istrators who are now “acting” in their jobs to 11. It was almost like a theatre workshop, there was so many actors.
The temporary top promo tions had, of course, brought in their train the usual crop of temporary promotions lower down the scale, but the full list of the top appointments (act ing) early in June was: Acting Governor, Mr. P. D.
Macdonald; Acting Colonial Sec retary, Mr. Eric Bevington; Acting Financial Secretary, Mr. H. P. Ritchie ; Acting Chief Justice, Mr. Justice Hammett; Acting Director of Audit, Mr.
O. Clark; Acting Accountant- General, Mr. B. J. Smith; Act ing Director of Lands, Mr. R.
H. Regnault; Acting Conservator of Forests, Mr. G. Watkins; Acting Director of Agriculture, Mr. N. Lamont; Acting Chief Geologist, Mr. R. E. Houtz; and Mr. Logan.
