sideration of the Appropriation Bilin Como « mittee is almost the only opportunity, ex copt a member makes a special motion, the anofficial mambors have of commenting on the work of the various departments. The discussions that took place list year and the year before were very interesting, nuđ might have been made still more interest- ing and useful had unofficial members takon 'more' pains to engniro inte the separate items. To attempt to rush through with this work inthe middle of a Council meet- ing was little short of an insult, to the uneficial members. If the Government has been dilatory in bringing forward the stimates, that is no reason why the work of examining them should be scamped, noi- ther is the desirability of getting on with other work any valid reason for haste.
There is nothing before the Council, or that is likely to como before the Council in tho next few months, that cannot wait. Wo have waited long for a Bankruptcy Bill; we can wait a little longer. "If it is ready, let it be published. It is well that such a Bill should be before the public for somo- tibe. A rather drastic Bankruptcy Or dinance was passed somewhat has-
Lily by tho Singapore Loislative Coun- dil two or three years ago, and it has since been discovered that several of its provi stons have entailed hardships which detract in a great messure from the utility of the maxsure. To make a farce of passing the estimates to advanco a new Bankruptcy Bill a few weeks would be a great mistake. If we remember rightly the Estimates were fully a month later last year, and no outery was
