The supervisor should be literate. The staff should only be retained in so far as, and for so long as, the necessity for its/ entertainments continues. The staff shall not be permitted to have any part in the actual collection of licence fees, and the close supervision of an Excise Inspector of an establishment of this kind. It will not be usually necessary to take security from persons thus appointed.(D)The Tree Tax System
