CHINESE ARE REALISTS Before proposing the
toast of the day, I should like to say how pleased we all are to have with us to-day Mr. Blackburn, the Coun- selor to the Embassy, the Ambas- sadorial staff, and from the Canton "British Chamber of Com- merce, Mr. Annett; its Chairman.
I now ask you," "gentlemen, to rise and drink with me the health of His Majesty's Ambassador to Ching.
The toast was received with en- thusiasm.
CLOSER PERSONAL CONTACT We need not only co-operation which is a well-worn word-but contact. closer personal contact. It should be clear that we are prepared to treat our Chinese friends in an absolutely equal way: in that direction we shall do our- selves and them more good. In the last ten years I have been always in countries conscious of an intense active youth, a desire. for self-expression, desire to show that they are a unit in the world; and I know that the very best way is to treat them as such
AMBASSADOR'S SPEECH Sir Hughe Knatchbull-Hugessen, | in responding to the toast sald:
Mr. Dodwell and Gentlemen. I should like, 'in the fist paco to associate my own voice. with yours in echoing the condolence and sympathy that you have so well expressed with the Government of Kwangtung in the very serious loss which they have sustained. It was one of the sad moments of my visit to Canton when I learnt the bad news of General Huang's death. I offered my condolences Now that the South is united to the Authorities of the Province with the Centre, there must be and I note that it is a loss which many fields of economic develop- is equally felt here. I think the ment in this country and I feel Authorities in Canton will appre- that now when there is such a ctate the condolences "you have friendly atmosphere and our rela- expressed and I should like to addtions with China are so good, we my voice to yours.
Now, Mr. Chairman, tet me thank you for giving me this op- portunity of meeting you all here. Although it was rather a surprise to me to be appointed to China, I have endeavoured to famillarise myself with some of the problems that arise. and the closer one comes to them the more difficult they appear to be.

HEAVY FINE
IMPOSED ON
ARMY OFFICER
Sequel To Fatal Car Mishap
Fines totalling $420 were impos- ed by Mr. Schofield at the Central Magistracy yesterday on Lieut. D. H. N. Baker-Carr, R. A. who plead- ed gulity through his solicitor Mr. O. E C. Marton, of Messrs. Dea- cons, to charges of driving a çar without due care and caution, driving without enclent brakes, and driving without a licence.
Traffic-Sub-Inspector 3. C. Saun- ders, for the prosecution, stated that he tested the brakes and at a speed of 30 miles per hour the car was pulled up in :73 feet. The offside rear brake was" olly and the others were badly adjusted. He re-adjusted the brakes and an- other test was made and this time the car stopped in 40 feet. Nor-
to treat them completely as equa's. By so doing we shall be ab.e to realise that co-operation which will be of such great bene-mally, it should have stopped 1 fit to both countries
30 feet with good brakes.

The charges arose from an acci- dent which occurred in King's
Road resulting in the death of a Chinese. On one side of the road. there was hillside and on the other open space and he (S.I Saunders) falled to see why the defendant did not observe the pedestrian, who was dressed in r dark Jacket and white trousers. The vicinity was also well lighted.
The prosecuting officer asked that the maximum penalty be imposed on the first two charges.
The deceased was ar Austra- lian-born Chinese, and was sur- vived by a wife and 11 children.

I know it is realised here, in Shanghal. and everywhere else, that "the future is full of hope. Wherever I have been I have heard that things are better, there is hope for the future.

We spend all our time in foreign countries and our own, and it is not only a holiday and a change but in itself an education to come to a British Colony. In my own case, it is particularly pleasant to come here because "Hong Kong as you have sa aptly said-is so closely asso ciated by history, race, economics and everything else with China that I regard it with a brotherly or cousinly interest.
ANOTHER ANGLE
You, in Hong Kong see China from one angle, and possibly I in Nanking may see it from—I don't, say quite a different angle but still, certainly another angle. But I think we all agree that the great. feature of China to-day is an intense spirit of progress-very different from what it was, five- and-twenty years ago. The coun- try is progressive, growing in so idarity and union, becoming more and more an entity which counts to itself and to the world. And we are ready to realise this, to sympathise with it, and to ad- Just ourselves, to this developing situation......

We see China Increasing in political stability and economic stability-I refer particularly that very important achievement in the last year, currency stability. To my mind, that, with unity be- tween Nanking and the other Provinces, forms the basis of the China on which we rest our sym- pathy and build our hopes for an Industrial and commercial develop ment in which we are only too anxious to take our part
