Translation of Code Telegram.

From.

To.

..Governor, Hongkong.

.Secretary of State,

..5th. October, 1915.

Date

Your telegram 20th. September. I presume that you

refer to the Trading with the Enemy Act 1914. There is no legisla❤

-tion here exactly corresponding to Section 11 of that Act but see

Section 7 of the Trading with the Enemy Amendment Ordinance 1915.

The objection to using that section is that the companies would not

allow supervisor to carry out his functions. It also seems doubt-

Iam -ful whether a supervisor could legally be appointed of a

business carried on and managed entirely outside the jurisdiction even though it be carried on by a company registered within the jurisdiction. The local register licences of these companies under section 35 of the Companies Ordinance 1911, will not be

renewed after the 31st. December and it may then be possible to

strike them off under Section 36. Opportunities may arise of en- -forcing section 257. If immediate action is desired in my opinion the only effective step would be to take summary powers to strike the companies off the register on the ground of preponderate number of apparent enemy shareholders in the last annual summary.

May.
