Warning to Intending Strikers.

Several days before the Strike began, the Hon. Secretary for Chinese Affairs, in an interview granted to the general representative of the Chinese Prass, stated that in the event of a strike the Goverment might require all idle persons to leave the Colony. mis policy has been carried out as far as possible, and has had the expected advantageous results; it has conserved food supplies, kept their prices within reasonable limite, and preserved the peace of the Colony. On the other hand it has more' or less played into the hands of our enemy. The strikers once having reached Chinese Territory are completely

under the control of the Canton Authorities who draft them

into the Labour Army, force them to join the Kuomintang, or keep

them hanging about Canton until it suits the Authorities to

allow them to return to Hongkong. In spite of this, I think that

the policy is a wise one. If these men returned to-morrow in any large numbers, we could find no employment for all of them, for our trade is paralysed by the Boycost. Had they remained, the Government could not have let them starve, and the Boycott which has deprived us of our income would at the same time have saddled us with the maintenance of these undersirables. But the policy might not suit all occasions, and should be carefully

considered on each.

Food, Transport and Labour Controls were
