August, 1914, gives me powers with regard to any resident

of this Colony. I understand, however, that Your Excellency's

legal advisers do not agree with me. For this reason I

recommend the adoption of the Defence of the Realm Act

here.

Without some such plenary powers my position here

would be very difficult in the case of a small raid

disaffection amongst the considerable number of Germ an

act which they are posted to prevent.

I am sending this through the Senior Naval Officer

who will forward it to Your Excellency with his views.

I have the honour to be,

Your Excellency's obedient Servant,

Sd.

P. H. Kelly

Major-General,

Commanding the Troops, South China.
