India or the United Kingdom: but unless there is a surplus

of British groundnuts India should not allow them to come

to Hongkong. The Colony has no real Customs Service and

when it is permissible to re-export an article when pro-

-duced in one country and not when produced in another, it

is impossible except by imposing very irksome conditions

as to storage to ensure that the goods re-exported do not

in fact originate in the non-permissible country.

The prohibitions must now be examined

movements are limited to war time. No detailed records of

the trade of the Colony prior to 1918 are in existence).

(a)

Aircraft, raw asphalt and bitumen, raw bauxite, chrome

Firearms, ammunition, cocaine and opium are already

Existing dispensations give the required freedom

for these articles.

(d) Explosives, the existing dispensation permits

exportation in normal quantities to China, Indo-China

and British North Borneo, provided the goods are not

of British origin. This discrimination against

British goods is undesirable as explained in para-

-graph 3 above.

Asbestos. It appears from the Board of Trade Journal

that manufactures of asbestos are not included under

this head. If BO,
