There are always technical difficulties in

f selling trade marks under a compulsory sale sect, and when we did sell trade marks belonging eneay firms in Nigeria, there was a considerable Sutery unongst the British merchants and other persone

interested against our doing so.

(2) The position of Hong Kong is peculiar since as you k ow the real value of the trade marks belonging to the liong Kong firms is connected with their use in China. uwing to the system of Consular jurisdiction

in China, we cannot prevent the German using his old trade marks there after the sale, and as we cannot guarantee, a title we have thought it best not to sell but to take steps similar to those described under (a) to keep the marks off the market.

(3) There was some risk that if the trade marks were sold they might be bought by British or neutral subjects formerly in the employment of the enemy owers with aview to restoration to such owers after the war.

I hope the above sufficiently answere your

questions.
