For Mr. Macdonald

Mr. P. D. Macdonald, who is retir ing soon from the post of Colonial Secretary in Fiji, and who is now in Europe on leave, has been appointed chairman of the Fiji Public Service Commission.

The appointment was strongly criti cised on April 1 by "The Fiji Times", which said that the London Agree ment of last July expressly stipulated that no former public servant could be put into this position unless he had been at least two years out of the service.
