INDIAN GUARDS. There are approximately 900 Indian Guards em-
ployed at a cost to the shipping companies of some $270,000 per
annum. Neither Owners whose property is at stake, nor officers
whose lives are at stake have the slightest confidence in them. Their training is inadequate and their discipline is bad and their bad discipline affects the discipline of the other members of the crew. These guards although nominally on the ship's articles are paid through the Police and consider themselves as police and resent receiving orders from the ship's officers. In an appendix hereto a number of cases is quoted, showing the bad discipline and inefficiency of the Guards. This list of cases is by no means
exhaustive but merely illustrative of the matter raised in this
paragraph.
It is the opinion of both the Owners and the Officers the (as it is/generally accepted view all the world over) that the
Master of a vessel should have complete control over all members
of his crew at all times when the vessel is at sea, and it is
felt strongly that the police element should be entirely eliminated
and that any Regulations or assistance received by a ship in the
British Mercantile Marine should come from the Navy and in certain
matters from the Harbour Department and not from the Police. Whilst in port the Indian Guards consider themselves as being off duty and they take no part in searching the people who come on board whilst the vessel is in port. It is the unanimous opinion
of ship owners and officers that the Guards could and should be
dispensed with from the ships.
POLICE SEARCHES. The searching and examination of passengers embarking on vessels about to leave the colony is a proper function of the police. The police searches however are inadequate. The number of cases of ships which have been pirated by passengers
who embarked with their arms is well known. Coastal and River
Steamers are frequently in Hongkong for 12 hours at a time and during the whole of this time cargo and baggage is being discharged
