At Geneva, Congressman Porter was American delegate to the Opium Conference, and incurred the goodwill of China by his deter mined stand for fair and equal treatment.
The Porter Resolution, adopted by the House in the Sixty-ninth Congress, aiming at revision of un- equal treatles, was recognised in China as a gesture of American goodwill A
Although the handling of inter national affairs by the American Congress is traditionally the virtual monopoly of the Senate because of Its treaty ratifying functions, many international observers have cam mented on the increasing interna- tional importance of the House of Representatives because of its power to bring pubile opinion to bear upon any given situation. This added prestige was attributed in considerable degree to the active work of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, under the chairmanship of Mr. Porter.]

Li Sal-sau, at the time of the police visit, was seen to come. into the cubicle with a basket similar to two others in which a quantity of questionable papers wero sub- sequently discovered. On a prior date. Li Yuen had received from Li Kwong, when Lau Ping was also present, 13 documents similar to those exhibited in Court for the pur pose of distribution,
"Of course it is necessary to prove. three things, said Mr. Fitzroy, "Firstly, that these people were in possession of the papers; secondly that they had them without lawful authority, and thirdly, that they were knowingly in possession. The case for the Crown will be that the first three accused were in posses sion of the papers, having lived in the cubicle for sometime, and one of them also having taken into the cubicle one of the baskets produced In Court, that game basket being not taken out again
Continuing he said that when the Folice visited the floor, a large quantity of seditious papers were found in the cubicle occupied by the accused. Being a place where so many things were stored it would be questioned if any, one of these |men know what were in the baskets. The man who rented the cubicle had not been found, otherwise he would have been before the Court as well.
The case against Sin Yuen and Li Yuen was withdrawn, Me, Fitzroy stating he would be putting them into the witness box to give evidence
