NOTE (1)All persons and firms resident or carrying on business within the Colony are prohi- bited from having, with any person or firm mentioned in this list, or in any list issued under the Trading with the Enemy (Statutory List) Proclamation, Hongkong, any dealings other than such as are expressly authorised by paragraph 5 of the Proclamation. The principal proclamation was pub- lished in the Gazette of the 21st July, 1916, and an amending proclamation was published in the Gazette of the 5th April, 1918.
NOTE (2). Where a person or firm mentioned in the list has more than one address in the country or group of countries under which the name of the person or firm appears, all dealings in that country, or in any country in the group, with such person or firm are prohibited, even in cases where one only of the addresses or one only of the countries is specifically mentioned.
NOTE (3).--Under the Trading with the Enemy Proclamations of the 25th June and 10th November, 1915, all Proclamations relating to Trading with the Enemy apply to all persons or bodies of persons of enemy nationality, resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, and consequently it is an offence to trade with any person or body of persons of enemy nationality resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, even though such person or body of persons is not included by name in the Statutory List, and the omission of the name of any such person or body of persons from such list is not an authority or licence to trade with such person or body of persons.
NOTE (4). The dates in the margin are the dates on which the respective names were placed on the Statutory List in the United Kingdom.
NOTE (5).--A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 4th January, 1918, may be obtained from the Government Printers, Messrs.

NOTE (6). It is not unusual for firms in Holland and the Netherland East Indies to be regis- tered under names commencing with descriptive terms such as "Handel Maatschappy" (Trading Company) or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (Limited Liability Company). In such cases it has been found more convenient to publish the firm under its proper name, followed by the general descriptive term Handel Maatschappy" or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (N.V.), as in the case of an English company. For instance, Handel Maatschappy Louvre and Naamlooze Venootschap de Komeet v/h Dunionceau Frères will be found under Louvre and Komeet respectively, and not necessarily under
Handel" or "Naamlooze," though cross references may be given.
