Secretary of State:

Abolition of Mul Teal System,

I had a long talk with Sir Reginald Stubbs,

the Governor of Hong Kong, who is home on leave

about this question. It is interesting to note that the proposals put forward by the Joint

Committee of the Society for the Protection of Mul

Tsai and of the Anti Mui Tsal Society would involve

its continuance for some 20 years, and Sir Reginald

Stubbs quite rightly rejects these proposals as

being out of harmony with the definite decision taken by the Secretary of State and announced ta

Parliament.

Sir Reginald Stubbs puts forward an

* alternative scheme in his despatch of the 10th

June, and I agree with the Department that this

alternative scheme should be approved and the Hong

Kong Government authorised to implement it without

delay.
