1827. July 19.

Constitutional Code.

Ch. X. Defensive Force
§. 2. Leading Principles.

19.
Art 19. VI. Inequality minimizing:
to wit as between
commandees
and commanders.
This property is scarcely
useful on any other
account than that of
it's subserviency to the
contentment maximizing.
But it requires arrangements
of it's own; and
the care required by it
has an antagonist of extraordinary
strength in
the external security
maximizing
principle.
Note that to secure
efficiency to means,
obstacles must not be
left unattended to.

20.
Art 20. VII. Employment
extending
or say diversifying.
What is assumed in
this case is that by the
operations, strictly professional
and exclusively
appropriate, the whole
disposable time of the
aggregate body of thefunctionaryons in question will not be
filled up.
Remains in this case
a quantity of time capable
of being employed
with more or less
advantage to other purposes.
By due selection, aid
may thus be lent to
divers other principles
viz.

Ch. X. Defensive Force
§. 2. Leading Principles.

20 contend.
1. Internal security maximizing:
by exclusion of
designs adverse to internal
security.
2. Aptitude maximizing,
by the selection of congenial
occupations.
3. Contentment maximizing.
4. Expense minimizing.
For examples of appropriate
occupations, see
§. 18. Collateral employment.


+21.
Art 21. VIII IX. Expense minimizing.
Included here too is
the assumption — that, for
the purpose of external
security, and thence of
appropriate aptitude &
contentment of the individuals,
sufficient provision
is made: and
that by any addition
made to the expense,
no equivalent contribution
would be made
to the aggregate of these
several ends.

22.
>Art. 22. Different modes
of minimizing Expense.
1. Defalcation of what
is needless from expenditure:
as to this see §. 10
Remuneration. 2. Obtainment of return
in the shape of profit.
As to this see, as above,
§. 18. Collateral Employments.

23. Uses
Art 23. Uses of the exhibition
of these principles.
1. Assisting the memory
of the directing functionaries
connectedconcerned.

Ch. X. Defensive Force
§. 2. Leading Principles.

Uses 23 contind.
2. Contributing, on each
occasion, to correctness
of judgment, by
keeping before his eyes
at the same time,
the demands made by
the mutually antagonizing
principles on
both sides; in such
sort, that a correct
balance may be struck.
3. Putting it to him to
consider whether these
are all the items that
belong to the account;
and if not, to all such
as are wanting; allotting
to them appropriate
denominations.

24.
Art 24. Of the above ten eight,
three two principles are
peculiar to the Stipendiary this branch
of the public services:
1. Contentment-maximizing:
by no one branch
is demand presented for
this case over and above
what is necessary
for obviating oppression,
as to which see Ch. IX.
§. 21.

25. 27
Art 25. Connection between contentment-maximizing
and expense minimizing:
the worse a man
expects to be treated
the higher he will expect
to be paid.

26. 28
Art 26.
2. What presents the special
demand for inequality-minimization
is
that for the purpose of
this service, a vast deal
more inequality is necessitated
than in any other:
and is generally seen to be
necessitated: thence the
danger lest, by oversight, the
popular sanction should
allow too much.

Ch. X. Defensive Force
§. 2. Leading Principles.

27. 25
Art 27. 3. As to employment
extending
, the nature of
the service here requires,
that the whole of the term of the
aggregate of all these functionaries people's time should be at the
absolute disposal of superordinates:
all are therefore
prepared to expect to
see the whole of their
time disposed of.
Nor can they be permitted
to appoint Deputies Deputy.
Not so in any non-military
branch of service.

+ VIII. Time occupying.

Military and
to the Stipendiary
to wit 1. Contentment maximizing
Employment
. 2. Time
occupying.
