secondly, Is the Colony atąpresent adequately safeguarded
against war risks such as may be reasonably anticipated without taking an alarmist's view ? In other words, as a merely business proposition are our enormous material
asseta here sufficiently insured ↑ In my opinion, and in
that of others well competens to judge the reply to those questions is, that we ought to increase our insurance and that if it costs us a good deal in money, and in personal effort we should accept that coat, ( as every community in the world is doing at the present time) as inevitable, and as a sensible precaution in our own interests. I put this matter to you then not on the high grounds of preserv- -ing intact the Empire to which we belong (though that too merits consideration) but as a purely business question, vua.:- the vital necessity of insuring our property
adequately, against reasonable risks. I will assume that irrespective of what the Home Government may be able to do, it devolves upon us to make some personal effort and sacrifice to add to our Defence. What form should it take ?

Cowmanding. The object of this Memorandum is to request
you to ascertain whether the Community of Hongkong is in
favour of such legislation.
Generally speaking the liability as regards training would be as follows:-
