in this case was absurd.
I have no doubt that the heads of the Government Department of Indo-China are sincerely desirous of fostering the transit trade to Yunnan as much as possible. At the same time with a complicated tariff like the French and crowds of Customs officials brought up on principles of red-tape, misunderstandings are constantly liable to arise with the native traders. A considerable section of French public opinion in Tonkin is opposed to their Customs system on the ground that it prevents money from coming into the Colony and that its application renders the Administration unpopular with the natives.
For instance, Monsieur Szymauski, the Director of the Banque de l'Indo-Chine at Hanoi, in speaking to me of the misunderstanding with the Chinese referred to above, lamented the fact that although they had got the route which should give them the trade of Yunnan and Szechuen, they were likely to lose much of its benefit from the "tracasseries" of the Customs service. He mentioned as an example of such "tracasseries"
