Thus in the event of the claims of a mark

registered by a British subject only in the United Kingdom conflicting with the claims of a mark registered by a British

subject only in Hongkong, it would be possible for the Imperial Government to protect in China the one which could prove rights

conferred by prior usage.

The effect would be to protect by local

registration the marks of British subjects in China, Korea and Japan, as well as locally, but to protect the marks of other subjects only locally, which seems to meet the main difficulty.

Under the impression that this view of the rights of prior usage

is supported by the spirit of the English law upon the subject,

and having regard to the extreme local inconvenience of com-

-pulsory registration in the United Kingdom, my Committee would

recommend that it should not be made a condition precedent to

registration in Hongkong in the new Ordinance which His Excel-

-lency proposes to enact.

Mr. F. H. May,

Colonial Secretary.
