the limit is 200° F.

The writers complain that this renders it impossible for vessels brumming liquid full benty the harbour, and that the inspection of the fuel, even if the flash point were under 200° would constitute a serious delay. They also complain that the Harbour Master has refused to listen to their recommendations.

Reference to the regulations in force in Ceylon, the Straits & Hong Kong is correct. But of course we do not know what flashpoint is, in practice, accepted in such cases.

I am not sure whether we can take action because of the information relative to the Straits Settlements as at Hong Kong. If we cannot do this latter course, we might refer to the law for a ruling.

The whole matter, I think, is what we should do. At the same time, I would remind Ceylon that we have never had to deal with such a case.

But, in view of the differences of climatic and other conditions between Hong Kong and their Country, it would be well to refer for report to Hong Kong.

A representation from Ceylon may have some bearing on this subject, and he should see the papers when we get the answers from the Colonies.
