The Fifth Committee was un- animously of opinion that such a situation should not be allowed to appeal to the Japanese Govern- ment urging it to give careful at- terition to the weight of evidence furnished to the League of Nations in respect of clandestine manufac- ture and the traffic in drugs in China for which Japanese subjects are responsible, and to adopt the most effective measures possible to remedy such a state of affairs:

"The Malays in this region live a simple life. purely matriarchal, and follow to the letter the tenets of the Mohammedan law. Most of the kampongs are well kept.
"But I was, rather surprised to find dogs in the kampongs," she went on. "I am told the Malays keep the dogs to drive away wild pigs, which would damage the
crops."
Mrs. Grey added that the first thing she noticed was the Malay women. "They are very sophis- ticated and, unlike the Malay women of the other States, they are not shy but willing to pose before the camera for a picture when asked to do so."
"Wild elephants abound in this region, and have "done extensive damage to crops. While I was there, the Malays built trap with long poles tied together and a great sliding gate at one end. The Malays tell me that when they drive the elephants into the pen they hope to tame and sell them to timber merchants in the coastal areas."
