writing to the Registrar of Companies at Shanghai on the 8th of

March last with special reference to the Wing On (Shanghai)

Limited, which on the facts stated in previous correspondence he

was convinced was now a 'China' Company, suggested that, as

unfortunately the Hongkong Companies Ordinances had not yet been brought into accord with the China (Companies) Amendment Order-in

Hongkong Company law will be amended so as to agree with the new

Order-in-Council of 1919, there should then be no difficulty in

deciding the status of a Company carrying on business in China and also in Hongkong: the fact to be decided will be whether or
