Provided that where the Board is of opinion that such transfer of the aforesaid rights by public auction is not considered desirable or expedient, it may, with the previous sanction of the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief, the Command or in his absence, the Principal Director, (a) either levy such stallages, rents or fees as it thinks fit; or (b) farm the stallages, rents and fees livable under clause (a) for any period not exceeding one year at a time:
