Would it not in every way be

preferable that instead of hampering commerce

an endeavour should be made to encourage it by

constructing new lines of communication over which

trade can pass?

of this kind which could with advantage be taken

(1) The construction of the loop-line railway at Canton necessary to connect the Kowloon-Canton

Railway with the incohate Canton-Hankow Railway.

(2) The completion of the Canton-Hankow Railway,

of which sections have already been constructed

northward from Canton and southward from Hankow.

(3) The construction of a branch line railway from

Fan-ling via Shatau-kok, Mirs Bay and Bias Bay to

Wai Chau.

the Canton Government in bringing under administrative

control the lawless and piratical villages round the

coast of Bias Bay. All these three schemes would

be of great benefit to the Kuang-tung Province, and

they would also be beneficial to Hongkong. The Canton Government admittedly has not funds for

such schemes as these, and hes no sources from which

such funds can be borrowed. The Hongkong Government

funds for such projects and would be able to

finance them on easier terms than the Canton Government

such works as these would provide labour in abundance

for anyone in Canton who may still be unavoidably

out of work as a result of the present strike and

boycott. The Strike Committee professes that the
