a model settlement in the outskirts of the wwn. Encouraged by the tact of the high cost of living lä the Colony, due to the excessive rents paid for house property of all descriptions, whether for dwell- ing houses, shops or stores, these gentlemen hoped to establish in the New Territory conveniently near to Kowloon a garden city in which familles might live with § greater comfort and more econo- mically than was possible in Hong Kong.
Prior to that date the ownership
of house property in Hong Kong was in a state of monopoly, al- though i an unorganised form. The whole scheme to counteract

the which benefits only large vested interests.
The roor man, it was pointed out, has no "Anger in the pfe" in the tracts of land which are still awaiting to be opened to the Colony's re- "sidents.
