The defendants are with an unlawful use of their ship fer the exportation of this opium in contravention of the Opium Ordinances 1914 to 1922, under Section

Leading this Section together with the definition uf To export" contained in Section 4
Ordinance. t
bave
to
this decided that the word "exporta- tion
must be interpreted include any act preparatory to export. To export" is defined in these words in Section" of the Ordinance, "mess sc."-To export means and includes to con vey out of the Colony and to do ang set preparatory to ur for the purpose of causing convexance out of the Colony." The point, how- ever, is to my mind not free from. doabe.
Statutory evidence of the unisw. ful use of this ship arises under Section 46 on the finding on board of the amount of opium bere dis- covered. The inference to be drawn from this evidence may be rebutted generally and in particular by showing affirmatively that every reasonable
precaution bas beco taken to prevent the unlawful use of the ship and, further, that none of the officers or their servants or laby of the crew of the ship were
implistel in the unlawful use.
in my -pidiva is elear that this ship uns been used for the receipt of opium, pre- paratory to its convesance out of the Colony, and has therefore been unlawfully used within th meaning of the Section. A cua- viction Do this grand must he recorded against the defendants,
No Cunnivance.
There is no doubt that the de- defendants themselves have been innocent of any connivance with the unlawful use of their ship. 1 riad, also, that they have adopted all reasonable precautions to pre- vent the necurrence of this offence. One purpose of the Secting would appear to be to penalise shipowners in respect of the conduct of their employees. la effect also, it pro- ridea that the guilt of their em ployees is to be asanmed, until their innocence is established. In this case, the defenducts have failed to prove innocenre lur cer tain Chinese members of the eu- gine room staff of the ship.
In Being the penalty. I am not concerned in the present circum- stances with the greater oz. less degree of implication of members
the crew. My duty is to impost tbe lowest penalty that will make it the interest of the shipowners to use disciplinary measures to coun. ter the smuggling of opium by their crew. A pominal penalty in this case will not, in my opinion, have this result. I regard it as an ex- tenuating circumstance in this case that the uthicisi suthorities might bave rendered assistance to the Hefendants to fulfilling their duties
under this Ordinance, and, did not" do so.
