case. This discrimination handicaps the British article and the Bystem suggested in par: 3 above is therefore

preferable. This system should not however be applied to Linseed Oil of which the Colony has a large local consump tion for shipyards and shipping. It would be preferable

to prohibit the re-exportation of Linseed Oil of British origin rather than cut off suplies, but an exception made

in favour of retail consignments to China and Indo-China

by the telegram of 4. 10. 17 should be continued.

Rattana. These are imported in large quantities from the Netherlands East Indies, Singapore, British North Borneo

and Indo-China and are re-exported to China, Japan and in

smaller quantities, to U.S.A. This trade should not be

interfered with. In the case of imports from Singapore

the system in par. 3 should be applied, if the mattans in

question originate in British Territory.

(r)

Rubber.

(a)

There is a regular trade in old rubber to Japan.

This is now covered by the transference of rubber to Class

cm

Silver. The exportation of local stocks of silver bullion

and of silver coins current in Hongkong is totally

prohibited: but the Colony could not without most disastr-

-ous results to the trade of the whole Far East interfere

either with the movements of Chinese Silver currency or

with silver coins and bullion in transit using the port

for transhipment only.

(t) Tin.

Separate representations have been made regarding

this metal. The present restrictions are a great handicap

to the trade in Yunnan Tin.

(u) Tungsten Ore. The position now is that transhipment of

Chinese tungsten ore is permitted to all Allied destina-

tione except Siam: but for shipment to British Possessions

and to the United Kingdom the permission of the Secretary

of State is required. There is a small local production

of tungsten ore but the total quantity is negligible

compared
