1915.

With reference to your letter No.30838/1915 of the

10th July regarding the proposal by the Governor of

Hong Kong to require landing certificates in the case

of exports of prohibited goods and goods exported under

the Declarations of Ultimate Destination Ordinance, I

am directed by Secretary Bir E. Grey to ask whether the

procedure contemplated by Mr.Secretary Bonar Law would

involve the signature of some special form by Consular

Officers, or whether the mere legalisation of landing

certificates, for which a fee of five shillings would

be charged, would be sufficient.

The Under Secretary of State,

Colonial Office.

I am,

sir,

Your most obedient,

humble Servant.
