Trading with Austrians and * Germans,
In a small community like Huugkong, where the agencies of the large business houses at Home and on the continent have been distributed regardless of nation- ality, opportunities have arisen since the war for British firma.to expand at the expense of alien enemy firme but if the Germans were driven completely from the colony it must be obvious that in the long run certain lines of business would disappeer with them and the colony, if not the individuals connected with it, would suffer accordingly. The idea of the new measure is 10
what course the enemy pursues, under a frea and fair flag and we believe that, after mere con.. sideration, this too, will be the opinion of those gentlemen who, acting to the best of their belief. in the publio interests, 80 vigorously opposed it. We may rest assured that what" His Majesty's Government considers the right courge to pursue in prerent circumstances is really the right course for us to follow.

Trading with the Enemy, It is unnecessary, however, to say that there is a very large séc. tion of the British public who regard Fres Trade and Fair Trade not as one and the same thing but as opposite policies, and to such Mr. Llarcourt's instraction must seem strangely out of tune with the cfficial propaganda for the sapture of the enemy's trade. But trade, as H.E, the Governor remarked, is many-aided, and the Imperial Government in formulat ing its policy bas taken mach broader and much longer views than the individual British trader is as a rule apt to take. Let us bear in mind that our war is ngainat Prussian militarism ratber on against German commerce, which has undeniably contribut- ed largely to the material pro- spority of our Colonies, and if during the continuance of the war the Government in able to secure. that no proceeds of the trade done in British territory by Buch Cler- man firmans are licensed to carry ou a trade shall go to support, in any shape or form, resistance to our armies in the field, we are inolined to think that we shal have little reason to 'cávil at rhe decision at which the Govern- ment has arrived.
