Wireless Telegraphy apparatus is unnecessary or

unreasonable”.

In short I am of opinion that wireless telegraphy in all ships as defined in paragraph (1) is necessary but the introduction of the Home Act in its entirety is unsuited to our local conditions.

12. The Home Act governing "boat accommodation for all on board" has been modified in Hongkong not, I would submit, from its being unnecessary, but from the impracticability of placing lifeboats for some 1,200 pedple on a ship of some 3,000 tons gross register. Such ships have to depend largely on rafts and floats, etc., in lieu of lifeboats, this further points to the

necessity of WT being installed in all such ships. 13, The following is perhaps beside the point though I

sation it as showing how Hongkong as a port met come

into line with the Home Policy when dealing with ships

and shipping.

(a) it the present time the Hongkong Government are

endeavouring to gain recognition of the Hongkong Passenger Certificate" and I have recently submitted a report to the Board of Trade in connection with such recognition. Any further modifications, in the Merchant Shipping (Wireless Telegraphy) lot 1919, would possibly militate against such recognition being granted. The Colony and Part of Hongkong is of such importance from a shipping point of view that it seems incredible that such recognition has not been given, Ships are built here, measured and surveyed here Imperially Registered and frequently transferred to the London Register without further survey which is, in my opinion,

■ full recognition of our Burveys and Surveyors.
