ALIEN ENEMIES (TRADE MARKS).

Sir H. DALZIEL asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether his attan- tion has been called to the statement made by the Governor of Hong Kong at a meet- ing of the Hong Kong Legislative Coun- cil, in reply to a proposal by the Hon. Mr. P. H. Holyoak, a member of the Coun- cil, that it was expedient that all trade marks belonging to alien enemies and now on the register should be expunged, that the proposer was asking the Council to cppose the policy of His Majesty's Govern- ment, and that such a proposition would bo inevitably vetoed; and whether this official action has the support of the Gov- ernment?

Major HUNT asked the President of the Board of Trade whether 100 alien enemy trade marks have been renewed at Hong Kong; and whether the Governor refused to have them expunged because this would be vetoed by the Imperial Government!

Mr. BONAR LAW: The answer is in the affirmative. The action taken in Hong Kong is in accordance with the general policy adopted here.
