NEW AMENDING BILL.

THE CHINA MAIL,

In the current issue of the Govørn- | ment Gazette is published a draft- bill which it is proposed to in- troduce into the Legislative Council on December 13, for amending the Companies Ordinance 1911.

The objects and reasons of the measure are given by the Attorney General as follows

1. "Section 64(2) of the Companies | Ordinance, 1911, as enacted by section 8 (b) of Ordinance No. 12 of 1921, provides that every |limited company which has a Chinese name or uses a Chinese equivalent shall append there- to the Chinese characters" which have been adopted As the translation of the words Chung Took, 78 Connaught Ed.

in Chinese characters. It is doubt- }ful whether; strictly speaking, a company can have a Chinese name in this sense, because, under sec- tion 3 of Ordinance No. 58 of 1911, as amended by section 2 of Ordin- ance No. 22 of 1913, the memoran- dumn of association must be in the English language, As apparently the term Chinese name in the sub- section in question cannot refer to the name in the memorandum it Wang Kee & Co., Thipchindlers would seem to include any Chinese Compradores Stevedores & Coal name used by the company, even Merchants, Da sat & Pilot apply though such name should be only a No. 3881.

sound of the official English name of the company. It is not quite clear that the term Chinese name, does include such cases, though it probably does. It is desirable to | clear up any doubt which exists on the sub-section, and clause 2 in the bill proposes to resolve this doubt by making the requirement of the sub-section apply only to a trans- literation or translation of the official English name, of the com- Of course what has been called the official English name) may consist wholly or in part of Chinese words in an English trans-: literation.
