It may perhaps be objected that if a China Company 39

wishes to secure this advantage, it is open to it to wind

up and reincorporate itself as an English Company, wi tka

power to keep a local register in China or elsewhere.

The difficulty in the way of this is that many of the

shareholdere of China Companies are Chinese and other

nationals, na woll

ns well as Britishsubjects residing in China,

who like to be able to essert their rights in the control

of the conduct of the coup mies in which their money is

invested, in a way which they could not do if the register

-ed office were removed to ani nd, and moreover, although

they would be resident in Chins, and the capital put b

and the business of the Company conducted either here or

in the Straits settlements, the dividends would be liable

to Fritish Income Tax.
