dross which results from the smoking of chandu in Malaya is at present being consumed, and if this supply of dross is withdrawn from the market some alternative will be sought by the present drose consumere. It might be necessary for Gaverment to meet this demand by putting on the market a second and cheaper grade of chanda er even a preparation

of chandu and dross as was done until recently in Hongkong. Increased sales of chandu or cheaper supplies of inferior opium would of course provide material for the critics of the Governmente, and would be a fruitful source of mis- representation,

I understood from Dr. Galloway, a member of the Straits Opium Commission of 1908, that he was writing a paper on the medical aspects of opium addiction, and that the subject werd é come up for discussion at the Medical Congress to be held in Singapore in the autumn of 1923.

This discussion, of which it would be advisable to obtain a record, may throw light on the relative dangers of chandu and dress smoking and of the swallowing of dross, and may be of value as a guide to the best policy to adopt.

12. The position in Hongkong differs materially from

that either in British Malaya er in the Dutch East Indies in that while these sountries are comparatively free st present from unggling en any large scale, enormous quantities of illicit Chinese opium are reaching Hongkong.

Owing to the proximity of China and the continual

interocurse between Hongkong and China this state of

affairs is to a large extent inevitable; though it may be

that the pal icy of abolition of public smoking houses in

the Cơ ony has helped to contribute to it by leading to

the establishment of numerous secret opium divans where swaggled opium is chiefly consumed. In colonies where the demend is supplied by public divans open to inspection a much greater degree of control can be exercised and it is possible to secure that a higher proportion of the opium

consumed
