TR Brook Beranech, He

time he agrees with what is generally described as "r sponsible opinion" that self government for Honghong on the lines of Singapore is an idea to be "wholly re pudinted." These two state- ments need examining. Allowing that the Council leaves much to be desired in many ways, is there not n

danger that in reeking to remedy some of its must obvious shortcomings-for the sake of constitution] tidinews-political conscious! ness and activity muy there- by be created which will seek to curry the reformavery. much farther than Mr Bernacchi is now proposing.

Co. sents in a single wallop-la that no one can tell how und where it is going to end. An even stronger argument against the proposal, how- ever, is that there is virtuni- ly no demand for it. And this is confirmed at every election by the small turno of volers. Why then encourage reform when it threatens to upset the order- ed calm of the Colony and perhaps disturb stability and confidence upon which our economic viability depends; The Colony's general welfare must be weighed carefully in assessing the possible effects of a change of this nature.

Good Case HAVING said this, however,

is necessary to add that Mr Bernacchi has made a good case for more up-| pointed representative mem- bera. And an enlargement of this Council on this basis could be considered. Bernacchi's comments about member whe carry loyalty too far will also be echoed well beyond the membership
