BANISHEES SENT TO
THE SESSIONS,
THEFT FROM EUROPEAN RESIDENCE
on
Arrosted by the Polico October 27 for larceny of a pair of trousers and a vest from No. 2 Chatham Road, the residence of Mr. H. B. Touse. Chung Tak fong, with a bad record, was found to be a returned banishee.
In bringing him before Mr. Butters at the Kowloon Magistracy yesterday afternoon on charges of larceny and returning from banish- ment, Detective Inspector Elston applied for committal.
Defendant pleaded guilty to the farceny charges and was sentenced to two months on each count, to run consecutively.
Evidence of arrest was given by a Chinese detective, after which

this case.
Evidence of arrest was given by Shek Tui, principal Chinese datec- tive, who stated that about 8.30 p.m. on November 4 he apprehead- ed defendant in Portland Street near Mongkok Road, Defendant was pointed out to him by a man,
Another Committal. Another returned banisbec, one. The publie markets compria-Wong Hing, was brought before cd any addition to the licenced por Mr. Buttera yesterday afternoon, tions, e. stalls, controlled areas, committal being also asked for in Avenues, passages and stairways to which the general public had fres access, and over which the stall holders had no control. It seemed to him, therefore, that If they ap- plied their anti-apitting by-laws to the markets they should be definite- ly extending their field of opera- tion, and he thought that the Board would have accepted that by-law at the time, but he thought it was better to consplidate their original position first. That had now been done, for their warning connecting spitting with tuberculosis had been in force for over six months or more, and he did not think there could be many frequenters of the public markets who were unaware of the dangers of spitting.
No Power of Arrest. One further consideration he had in hla mind at the time was whe- ther they would be able to enforce the by-law. The reason being that whereas the Board by the officera of the department had the power of proceeding against an infringe- ment of the by-law, they had no power of arrest. That difficulty still existed,, but he was convinced It was more apparent than real. The object of the by-law was not merely to stop promiscuous spit- ting, but to induce people abandon the habit altogether. The object of these measures was well-
to
known to the Board, and they did not impose It because some of them granted that the practice of spit- ting was indelicate, but they did it because of the expert opinion that the practice was a direct cause of the spread of tuberculosis.
The value of this particular by- law was twofold. In the first place, It seemed abvious that in the places where fresh food was sold a good. standard of hygiene should bo maintained. There was a further object, and that was the additional means of broadcasting their warn- ing against indulging in this habit in general to the public at large. The by-law would com- plete the legislation programme against spitting, so succinctly sug- gested to them by the Hon. Mr. T. N. Chuu for the notice of the Board.
Mr. Wong Kwong-tin seconded the motion.
Mr. M. K. Lo, in supporting the motion, said that he would like to on his congratulate Mr. Sayor very clear statements setting out the circumstances which impera- tively called for the Introduction of the by-law, and the beneficent effect to the public health, They were getting quite wearied of the re- turns showing fifty to sixty deaths from tuberculosis every week. The matter had been discussed some time ago at the instance of Dr. Li Shu-fan, and then it had been Janrnt that ail the alarasing num- ber of deaths showed a greater and more alarming figure of par- sona actually infected with tuber- culosta.
Prosecution Urged.
He agreed that in a market where vegetables and food were disposed for sale, anything so in- Imical to health and such a serious
should menace
be prohibited. Ife thought that Sanitary, Inspec tors should be patient enough to draw the attention of first offen- ders, but if necessary to enforce the by-law by prosecution, and he certainly should have 110 hegita- tion in supporting any such neces- sary action.
Mr. Champkin also added his support to the motion, saying that he saw no reason why it should not receive the support of all members, The only possible objection that could be raised was by the general theory that it was not possible to

put forward legislation when it was not possible to enforce it, but Mr. Sayor had referred to that aspect of the question.
Dr. Pope, also supporting the motion, Bald that he would ĺke to draw their attention to the fact that during the cholera epidemic certain regulations were introduced which caused some hardship to small vendors, but it appeared that the present legislation would cause practically no hardship, as it was merely a step to end a bad habit,
