would all be lost. If the suggestion goes any further, I am
therefore obliged to request that this aspect of it may be
borne in mind, and the losses of the charities made good: and
even further to ask that the original object of the enquiry
should be fulfilled by an additional charitable grant. Though
such a grant is not properly connected with any particular
source of revenue, the sequence of events in this enquiry
makes it not imporper to mention it here. I was on 3rd. Decem-
-ber 1913 asked to allow a meeting to be held at the Kwong Wa
Hospital at which a re-arrangement of the ring should be public-
-ly considered in the interests of the charities; and a promise
of at least an additional $5,000 per annum was made. With the
moral influence of the Hospital's Committee to back it, and a
public meeting at which proper stress could be laid on the
greed and want of public spirit of the present monopolists, it
is probable that a reconstruction of the ring would be possible
in a way that private competition could not affect, and the
chardities would be sure of their subscription. I was opposed

the charitable subscription; and the improvement of
the service is even more important; but this has not prevented
the Kai Fong from sending in the petition which is attached,
In it, I would draw attention to the list of serious accidents
under the present management, and to the way in which it

The moment when the ring seems likely to be
broken, is a particularly opportune one for the Government to
take a hand in the game,
