Representations are made to us by several responsible residents

ss to the undesirability of this přnotice from its adverse affect on

British prestige.

(2) Samman Street and the Japnese Distriot,

This street is immediately adjacent to the block of buildings

containing the Seamen's Institute, 8 ailors' Canteen and Soldiers'

Home.

We understand the quarter was selected by the authorities as

being wore desirable than the centre of the town where they were

before.

Sampan Street runs between the two main roads, dom either of

which all sailors and soldiers munt phan to reach their recreation

ground. The front of every house in Sampan Street is open to the

street. Except on a cold day there is constant soliciting from the

fronts of the houses and doorways.

The Japanese quarter is orderly, and there is no eliciting in

the open.

We understand one of the local firms of sectors contract to

examine the women at the keeper'a expense. The doc to re give certifica

tes of freedom from infection. The certificates are, of course, used

as advertisemen ta.

We recommend that the giving of any certificate of freedom from

venereal disease should be made illegal.

In New Zealand the Venereal Disease Act which authorised the

giving of certifiantes proved the danger of this form of abuse, and

the clause was repealed and a penalty substituted at the end of one
