Commenting on the disorders which broke out again on Monday in Kowloon, the spokesman of the Office of the Com- missioner of Foreign" Af-| fairs for Kwangtung and] Kwangsi stated yester- day. It is truly regret- table that any such dis- orders should have oc- curred.*"*

emphasised

The spokesman that irrespective of the cause 10 the disorders "1 which led must be realised that. no good purposes will be served through actions which are detrimental t the general stability of the local community.

He appealed to the local Chin- esc populace to maintain order, and further stressed that unless they assume a caliner attitude it will be difficult to abhieve a law- ful settlement" of the present ing cident.

concluded:

The spokesman Unpleasantness can be avoided only by refugal fo pet on the im- pulse of the moment. All rights of the local Chinese populace will be looked after and lawfully pro tected but they themselves must be "law-abiding.”
