The Marine Board have been requested to furnish statements showing the quantity of coal available in China, the estimated consumption per month for the steamers named in the margin, the quantity in store at Singapore (which is believed to be large, and to have been promised at a cheap rate) and the quantity in store at Point de Galle. We have at the same time intimated to the Marine Board that a despatch from Sidney of from 200 to 400 tons monthly may be calculated on, and have communicated to Her Majesty's Plenipo- tentiaries and the Board, our opinion that a well protected depôt for coals should be esta- blished at Hong Kong, when our settlement on that island has been matured. Your Committee will perceive from the document noted in the margin, that Mr. Bonham had purchased between 700 and 800 tons at six dollars per ton, which he expected soon to despatch to China. \n\nquarterly 17. We have likewise requested the Accountant-general to forward to us a return, exhibiting a statement of the entire expense incurred on account of Her Majesty's Government for the China expedition, with a view to enable your Committee to take such measures for the progressive adjustment of the sums at the debit of Her Majesty's Govern- meat, as you may deem most proper. \n\n18. In this statement will be entered the lists and valuations of military and ordnance stores expended and returned, the charges for extra pay of troops, the hire of the transports, and other marine charges; value of commissariat supplies provided at the cost of the Indian Government; value of coal and marine supplies, and wear and tear of steamers, &c. calculated at the rate of 10 per cent. on the block and rigging. \n\n19. We have requested the Government of Bombay to have arrangements in readiness for the quick conveyance to his destination of any successor to Admiral Elliot, who may come overland from England. \n\n20. Certain proposed arrangements for the better conduct of the post-office, distribution of letters in China, and the establishment of a post-office at Hong Kong, are in contem- plation. \n\n21. The papers here cited, contain various instructions we have issued to the Board and departments concerned, calling upon them to strain every nerve to expedite the completion of the arrangements devolving upon them respectively for affording aid and despatching reinforcements to the China expedition, and pointing out the very urgent necessity on the present occasion, of more than ordinary exertion in behalf of the public service. \n\n22. In conclusion, we beg,in an Appendix, to annex for the information of your Committee, and as affording the means of a ready reference to detail, a précis on the following points not particularised in the foregoing portion of this depatch: \n\n1. Ordnance stores. \n\n2. Commissariat stores. \n\n3. Medical stores. \n\n4. Coal from the marine stores. \n\n23.

        "content_text": "## Supplementary Convention to the Treaty of Commerce and Navigation of June 26, 1858, between Great Britain and China\n\nThese on the mainland, by foreign machinery, together with the abolition of all duty on foreign coal, as well as a reduction of duty on the native produce, will have very beneficial effects, and were desirable in themselves.\n\nThe conditional and qualified right of temporary residence, and inland navigation in foreign-owned vessels, if judiciously and quietly worked, will, I am satisfied, give foreign merchants all they can reasonably desire, and quite as much as they are in a position to turn to any good account for the present. It is too much to expect, however, that they will think so.\n\nThe introduction of a steam-tug for their use on the Poyang Lake may not be very valuable as a means of towing cargo-boats of tea, but as the first step towards familiarizing the Chinese authorities and people with steam-vessels in the inland waters, I think the concession far from unimportant.\n\nThe adoption of a written code of commercial law, in like manner, is more important for what it may lead to, than for any immediate results. From a commercial to a civil and criminal code, founded on European principles, and an international court for its administration in all mixed cases between foreigners and natives, there are but two steps; and these once gained, extra-territoriality may be dispensed with, and the greatest impediment to inland residence and unwillingness on the part of the Chinese officials to see the foreigner located in the provinces will disappear.\n\nFor these various advances in the path of progress and other concessions we have had to give something in return. A small increase in the duty of the two products, one Indian and the other Chinese, which, from their great value, can best bear it, has been the price paid. It is very certain, however distasteful to the merchants any increase may be, that not a pound less of either opium or silk will be in demand, even if it increase the price, by that amount, in the one case, and 1 per cent. in the other, cannot, in any perceptible degree, diminish the profits of those who deal in them. Moreover, it was a case in which the British Representative could not, as the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade remark in regard to another article, tea, refuse a revision on any ground of reason or equity.\n\nOn opium it is a matter of great indifference what import duty is levied while the Chinese Government has the acknowledged right to lay on any tax they please the moment it leaves the foreign importers' hands. Indeed, in the interest of India and our Indian revenue, anything calculated to give the Chinese Government an interest in the importation of the foreign article is by so much an advantage to the trade, as supplying a motive for checking the growth of the native produce, which has recently extended so greatly as to threaten the whole Indian trade, as I more particularly explained in my despatch No. 122 of the 13th instant, inclosing a reply to the Indian Government on the subject.\n\nAs to silk, the argument on the Chinese side was irresistible. It was an article of so much value and in such great demand that it could well bear a heavy duty. The present duty was actually below the scale of 5 per cent, adopted as the average for all exports and imports, and for both these reasons they were well entitled to demand an increased rate to bring it up to that average. Considering that they desired to double the duty on tea, silk, and opium, and had a direct interest in doing so, I think they showed great moderation in being finally contented with so little. Indeed, the total prohibition of opium, the restriction of missionaries from inland residence, and the abolition of all extra-territoriality being the three cardinal points and chief objects of desire with the Chinese Government and all the official hierarchy, it must be matter of congratulation that they have not insisted upon any one of these as a condition of revision; that is, a revision in the sense which we alone contemplated or desired.\n\nBesides the small increase in duty on these two articles, nothing has been conceded on our part but the plainest of all international rights, if there is to be any principle of reciprocity recognized in our relations with China, viz., the right to appoint Consuls in the British dominions. I have not for a moment forgotten the expressed wish of the Board of Trade that there should be no increase in the scale of duties, and the last instruction conveyed in your Lordship's despatch No. 141 of the 4th of August, indicating a doubt as to the expediency of allowing a Chinese Consul to be appointed at Hong Kong; but this last could hardly be refused with any show of reason or justice; and as to the inconveniences to be anticipated—even supposing this Government should be prompt to avail themselves of the privilege, which is doubtful—I believe these will be found on experience, to be more or less chimerical. Hong Kong is confessedly a great smuggling depôt; and the Chinese revenue, it is calculated, lose more than a quarter of a million annually in Customs revenue from its proximity to the mainland. It is natural, therefore, that they should desire to put a stop to it; and, as your Lordship's despatch No. 158 of the 20th of August last, with its inclosures, plainly shows, they are prepared to take as determined measures to check it as the Chinese smugglers are taking to carry it on by force. These things being so, it is much better, I conceive, that we should aid them, by legal and peaceable means, to control the smuggling proclivities of their own subjects sailing and trading from our Colony where there is a free port, than compel them to plant taxing stations, farmed out to unscrupulous guilds or Companies, and arm European-built ships of war to run \"amuck\" on all native vessels leaving the harbour of Hong Kong. Indeed, this course is so clearly laid down in the above-cited despatch of your Lordship that I may congratulate myself on having, as I trust, fully anticipated the wishes of Her Majesty's Government by providing, in the Convention for more satisfactory arrangements than those hitherto existing between the Chinese and the British Colonial authorities.\n\nIf the Consul appointed by the Chinese Government should, by controlling the smuggling propensities of his own countrymen in league with the foreign merchant, inflict any injury on Hong Kong by greatly diminishing illicit traffic, the concession contained in the Vth Article of the present Convention, giving to Hong Kong the much-desired privileges of a Chinese port in matters of transhipment, will go far to counterbalance any damage from effective action on the part of the Chinese authorities against smuggling. The legitimate trade can only gain by the measures proposed, and the suppression of that which is illicit will go far to put an end to the hostile feeling, of the existence of which, as your Lordship justly remarks, there can be no doubt.\n\nFinally, these three concessions constituted the price demanded; for all the Chinese were willing, or could be induced to grant in the interest of foreign trade. Have we paid too dear? I think the advantages we have gained so far preponderate over the little that has been yielded, as to leave no doubt on the subject.\n\nI cannot close this review of the long protracted negotiations and their result in the Convention, without bringing to the notice of Her Majesty's Government the valuable assistance I have received from Mr. Frater, Second Secretary attached to this Legation, and Mr. Adkins, the Acting Chinese Secretary. The latter has officiated as interpreter throughout, both in the Commission and at the Yamên. Much of the labour of the whole has devolved upon these two gentlemen, and I cannot speak too highly of their unwearied zeal and assiduity.\n\nI have, &c.\n\n(Signed)  \nRUTHERFORD ALCOCK\n\n## Inclosure 1.\n\n**Supplementary Convention to the Treaty of Commerce and Navigation of June 26, 1858, between Great Britain and China**\n\nHER Majesty the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and His Majesty the Emperor of China, desiring to secure the better execution of the Treaty of Commerce concluded between them on the 26th of June, 1858, have resolved, in accordance with the provision made in the XXVIIth Article to the effect that either of the High Contracting Parties may demand a further revision of the Tariff and of the Commercial Articles of that Treaty at the end of ten years,” to negotiate a complementary arrangement, and they have for that purpose named as their Plenipotentiaries, that is to say:\n\nHer Majesty the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Sir Rutherford Alcock, Knight Commander of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath, Her said Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to His Majesty the Emperor of China;\n\nAnd His Majesty the Emperor of China, His Imperial Highness (Ho-shuo) Prince of Kung, Wen Hsiang, President of the Board of Civil Office; Pao Chun, President of the Board of Revenue; Tung Hsün, President of the Board of Revenue; Tan Ting Hsiang, President of the Board of Punishment; and Chung Lün, President of the Colonial Office;\n\nPage 285  \nPage 70",

No. 2 \n## Abstract of Proceedings\n\n200 \n### 1-SCIENTIFIC QUESTIONS\n\nThe first of the preliminary questions was as follows:-\"Le choléra \"Asiatique, susceptible de s'étendre (épidémique), ne se développe-t-il \"spontanément que dans l'Inde, et est-ce toujours du dehors qu'il \"arrive quand il éclate dans d'autres pays? Ou bien revêt-il aussi le \"caractère endémique dans d'autres pays que l'Inde? dans ce cas, quels \"sont ces pays ?\"\n\nOn the points involved in this question the Conference was in unanimous agreement with that of Constantinople, that epidemic cholera has its origin in India, and exists permanently there in an endemic state; that it is probably endemic only in India, though there are some countries bordering on India, concerning which sufficient grounds do not exist for a formal conclusion on this point; that it has never been observed in a really endemic state, (which of course must be carefully distinguished from an origin from secondary foci) either in any part of Europe, or in Turkey in Asia, or in the Caucasus, or in the north of Africa, or in America; and that, though the possibility of its becoming acclimatized in any of those countries is not to be rejected, such event is to be held as extremely problematical.*\n\nOn the second question, \"Le choléra est-il transmissible par l'homme ?\" some discussion took place, not in reference to the main question, in which the Conference was entirely in accord with that of Constantinople, but on an exception taken by the German delegates to the wording of one of the conclusions of the Constantinople Conference on the subject.† With certain qualifications to meet this view, and which recognised the influence of localities, the Conference accepted those conclusions, thereby affirming that cholera is transmissible by the human subject coming from an infected locality; that the rapidity of its transmission is in correspondence with the activity and rapidity of human communications; that the introduction of a single cholera patient may give rise to the development of an epidemic; and that there are facts which tend to prove that a single individual (and à fortiori several) coming from an infected place, and affected with diarrhea only, may be enough to give rise to the development of an epidemic of cholera, or, in other words, that the premonitory diarrhoea of cholera may be the means of transmitting the disease.†\n\nOn the points raised in the third question, \"Le choléra peut-il être \n* Throughout this abstract I have given in full the conclusions as voted by the Conference. They frequently go beyond a mere categorical reply to the questions asked, and sometimes contain qualifications of the conclusions stated in the final \"Relevé des Conclusions, &c.\" (Annex. III.) which should not be disregarded.\n†The phrase objected to was \"L'homme atteint de choléra est par lui-même le \"principal agent propagateur de cette maladie.\" And the objection taken by Professor Pettenkofer was particularly to the words \"par lui-même.\" The view of the German delegation was thus formulated by Professor Hirsch :-\"Je ne conteste \"nullement la transmissibilité du choléra par l'homme venant d'un milieu infecté ; \"je considère l'homme seulement comme la cause spécifique, en dehors de l'influence de la localité infectée; en outre, je le considère comme le propagateur du choléra, lorsqu'il vient d'un endroit où le germe de la maladie existe déjà.” \nIt is apparently by an error, which escaped observation at the time, in the Procès-verbaux, that the proposal of the German delegation is therein stated to have been formally adopted, and to the exclusion of the Constantinople resolutions. But the fact was that the discussion showed that there was nothing really to dispute about: the conference readily and at once recognized the influence of localities, and most certainly the resolutions of Constantinople, modified on this point only, as I have stated in the text, were adopted. I find this error in the Procès-verbaux and Relevé des Conclusions, has been since noticed by other Members of the Conference. (See Bull. de l'Acad. de Méd. 1874, p. 926.)\n\n207 \n### Art. No. 2. \n## Abstract of Proceedings\n\npropagé par des effets qui, provenant d'un lieu infecté, ont servi à l'usage, et spécialement par ceux qui ont appartenu à des cholériques ?\" the conclusions of the Constantinople Conference were unanimously accepted, viz., that cholera is transmissible by goods employed for personal use coming from an infected place, and especially by such as have been used by cholera patients; and that there are even facts which show that the disease may be conveyed to a distance by such goods, if they have been kept close and unexposed to free circulation of air.\n\nThe fourth question, \"Le choléra peut-il être propagé par des comestibles ?\" was one which had not been considered at Constantinople. This question it was decided after a short discussion to divide into two, the one having reference to food, and the other to drink, especially to drinkable water. To the first branch of the question, “Le choléra peut-\"il être propagé par les aliments?\" the answer given by a majority, after considerable discussion, was that the Conference having no conclusive facts of the transmission of cholera by food, was not in a position to give a formal decision on the point. To the second division of the question, \"Le choléra peut-il être propagé par des boissons, particulièrement par l'eau ?\" the reply was unanimously in the affirmative.\n\nOn the fifth question, \"Peut-il être importé par des animaux vivants?\" the conclusion arrived at by a majority, after some discussion, was that there exists no proof of the transmission of cholera from animals to mankind, but that the possibility of it may reasonably be admitted.\n\nOn the sixth question, \"Le choléra peut-il être importé par les marchandises?\" the conclusion of the Conference at Constantinople, that, while they were unanimous as to the absence of any proof of the transmission of cholera by merchandise, they must admit the possibility of such occurrence under certain conditions, was, after discussion, adopted by a majority. No vote was given against it, but several delegations abstained from voting. As is evident from the wording of the resolution, it was only as to the concluding phrase that there was any difference of opinion.\n\nOn the seventh question, \"Le choléra peut-il être propagé par les cadavres des cholériques ?\" the conclusion of the former Conference, that though there was no conclusive evidence of the transmission of cholera by the corpses of cholera patients, it was prudent to consider them as dangerous, was unanimously adopted.\n\nOn the eighth question, “Le choléra peut-il se propager au loin par l'atmosphère seule ?\" the Conference adopted, with equal unanimity, the conclusions of that of Constantinople, which were as follows: No fact up to the present time has shown that cholera can be propagated to a distance by the atmosphere alone, whatever the atmospheric conditions may be; and it is further a law, without exception, that no epidemic of cholera has ever been propagated from one point to another in a shorter time than was requisite for a human being to travel from the one point to the other. The surrounding air is the chief vehicle of the cholera-producing agent, but the transmission of the disease by the air is limited, in the immense majority of cases, to a distance very close to the source of infection. None of the facts which have been cited of transport of cholera by the atmosphere to the distance of one or of several miles is sufficiently conclusive.\n\nThe Conference assented also with unanimity to the answer which had been given at Constantinople to the ninth question, viz. \"L'air frais arrivant du dehors aux agents donnant naissance ou propageant le choléra, et les aérant, ou bien l'isolement de ces agents de l'air extérieur, constituent-ils des éléments ayant ou non une influence sur le caractère contagieux du choléra ?” This reply was to the effect that in fresh air \n\n331",

        "content_text": "# AFP. No. 2.\n\n## A Detract of Proceedings.\n\n208\n\nthe generative principle of cholera rapidly loses its morbific activity, b) that under special conditions of confinement of air such activity might be preserved for an undetermined time; that it was under these conditions of confinement of air that, (as already stated in reply to question 3), cholera might be transmitted even to a distance by goods employed for personal use; that great deserts were a very efficacious barrier against the propagation of cholera, and that there was no example of that disease having ever been imported either into Egypt or Syria across the desert by caravans coming from Mecca.\n\nThe two remaining preliminary questions of the programme gave rise to long and animated discussions.\n\nQuestion 10 was, \"Quand il y a contagion, quelle est la durée de l'incubation?\" The resolutions of the Constantinople Conference on this point had been as follows:-\"In almost all cases, the period of incubation, i.e., the time which elapses between the moment at which the individual receives the cholera infection and the commencement of the premonitory diarrhea, or of the confirmed cholera, does not exceed a few days [elsewhere more precisely limited by the words, 'a week at the outside.'] All facts which have been cited of a longer incubation relate to cases which are inconclusive, either because the premonitory diarrhea has been included in the period of incubation, or because the infection might have taken place after the person's departure from the infected locality. Observation shows that the duration of the choleraic diarrhoea which has been termed premonitory, (which must not be confounded with every diarrhoea met with at cholera times), does not exceed a few days. The facts which have been cited as exceptional do not prove that the cases of diarrhoea prolonged beyond this period are really choleric, and are susceptible of transmitting cholera when the individual suffering has been withdrawn from all sources of infection.\" After a very long debate, the Conference of Vienna assented to these conclusions by 13 affirmative votes to 1 negative, four delegations abstaining from voting.*\n\nThe 11th and last question was this: Connait-on des moyens ou des procédés de désinfection grâce auxquels le principe générateur ou contagieux du choléra peut sûrement ou avec quelque chance de succès être détruit ou perdre de son intensité ? Dans le cas affirmatif, quels sont ces moyens?\" A short preliminary discussion made it evident that it would be desirable to take separately the opinion of the Conference as to the existence of means of disinfection which might be relied on with certainty, or only of means for the probable success of which there was good evidence; to separate, in short, the \"sûrement\" from the \"quelque chance de succès.\" The known existence of any means of disinfection, absolutely certain in its operation, was denied by 12 delegations, and affirmed by none, seven delegations abstaining from voting.\n\n*The difference of opinion, at least between the delegations which voted in the affirmative and those which abstained from voting, was, I apprehend, more apparent than real. I did not gather from the discussion that it was at all disputed by the latter that in the immense majority of cases (perhaps the expression \"almost all\" might have been felt by them a little too strong) the period of incubation does not exceed the limits stated in the resolution. Their objection attached rather to the too small importance, which, in a prophylactic point of view, the resolution seemed to attach to the exceptional cases, of which the most reasonable explanation consisted in admitting a longer period of incubation. As Professor Fettenkofer put it, the question was to be regarded from a prophylactic not a clinical point of view; adding, that from the latter \"il accepterait la thèse d'une courte durée.” On the other hand, it was by no means intended, as the limiting word \"almost\" shows, by those who supported the resolution to deny the possible, nor the probable, existence of a longer period of incubation in some cases, nor that dangers might, though rarely, arise therefrom.\n\n209\n\n## APP. No. 2.\n\nOn the other hand, 14 delegations asserted, while four denied, the existence of means of disinfection, of the successful application of which there was reasonable probability. The vote on this latter question, however, must be interpreted by reference to a further discussion to which it gave rise, which showed that the objection on the part of the delegations which had voted in the negative, to admit the probable efficacy of disinfectants, had arisen chiefly, or at least in great part, from the influence they conceived an affirmative answer to the question would have in leading to a reliance being placed on disinfectants, to the prejudice of the precautions (which they deemed much more important) of simple hygiène. This had certainly been the furthest possible from the intention of those who had given the affirmative vote. A resolution, therefore, which should remove all ambiguity on this point was proposed, and unanimously adopted, as follows (I give the exact words of the resolution itself): \"La science ne connaît pas encore de moyens désinfectants certains et spécifiques; en conséquence, la Conférence reconnaît une grande valeur aux mesures hygiéniques, telles que aération, lotions profondes, nettoyage, &c., combinées avec l'emploi des substances regardées actuellement comme désinfectantes.\"\n\nNo attempt was made at the present stage of proceedings to specify the various means of disinfection (required by the last clause of the 11th question), the subject being held to belong in its details more properly to question 22 of the programme.†\n\nFour sittings of the Conference had been occupied with the determination of these preliminary questions. The conclusions arrived at were, it will have been seen, essentially in accord with those arrived at by the Conference of Constantinople. At the last of these sittings, the course to be adopted in considering the second part of the programme, the practical questions relating to Quarantine, was also discussed. It was determined that the questions relative to Land and River quarantines (questions 12-16) should be entertained in full Conference, but that the subject of Maritime Quarantine (questions 16-22) should, in the first instance, be referred to a committee, and discussed on the committee's report. It was further resolved that the questions relating to the establishment of an international sanitary commission (Part III of Programme) should also, in the first instance, be referred to a committee. And the committees for the respective purposes were nominated.‡\n\n## II-QUESTIONS OF QUARANTINE.\n\nThe mode in which the questions connected with Quarantine were submitted for the consideration of the Conference differed from that which had been taken with regard to the scientific questions.\n\n* In the Procès-verbaux, the votes are recorded as 13 affirmative to 1 negative; M. Schleisner's vote, which was affirmative, having been erroneously entered as negative.\n\n† In point of fact, no enumeration of disinfectant substances, or recommendation as to special means of disinfection, was ever made by the Conference. The committee on Maritime Quarantines (see postea) in the Réglement attached to their report, suggested certain means as applicable to ships, and to passengers by ship, their clothes, and effects, but on discussion, it was felt that the best course was to leave the choice of means of disinfection to the competent authority of each country.\n\n‡ The committee on Maritime Quarantines, as first nominated, consisted of Messrs. Hirsch (Germany), d'Albert-Gianstätten (Austria), De Ring (France), Polak (Persia), and Seaton (Great Britain); but MM. De Ring and Polak declining, for reasons stated by them respectively, were replaced by MM. Seramola (Italy), and Van Cappelle (Holland). The committee on the subject of an International Commission consisted of MM. Lenz (Russia), Catinelli (Hungary), Marcovitz (Roumania), Kierulf (Norway), and Polak (Persia).",

Consul at Manilla, dated Sept. 17, 1864.\n\n\"The remedy most efficacious in its effects (in Epidemic Cholera) has been found to be CHLORODYNE, and with a small quantity given to me by Dr. Barke I have saved several lives.\"\n\nEarl Russell communicated to the College of Physicians that he had received a despatch from Her Majesty's Consul at Manilla to the effect that Cholera has been raging fearfully, and that the ONLY remedy of any service was CHLORODYNE-See Lancet, Dec. 31, 1864.\n\nExtracts from the GENERAL BOARD OF HEALTH, LONDON, as to its efficacy in Cholera.\n\n1st Stage, or Premonitory-In this stage the remedy acts as a charm, one dose generally sufficient. 2nd Stage, or that of Vomiting and Purging-In this stage the remedy possesses great power, more than any other we are acquainted with, two or three doses being sufficient.\n\n3rd Stage, or Collapse.-In all cases restoring the Pulse. So strongly are we convinced of the immense value of this remedy, that we cannot too forcibly urge the necessity of adopting it in all cases.\n\nFrom Dr. THOMAS SANDIFORD, Passage West, Cork.\n\nI will thank you to send me a further supply of Chlorodyne. It is the most efficacious remedy I ever used, affording relief in violent attacks of Spasms within a minute after being taken. One patient in particular, who has suffered for years with periodical attacks of Spasms of a most painful nature, and unable to obtain relief from other remedies, such as opium, &c., finds nothing so prompt and efficacious as Chlorodyne.\n\nFrom W. VESALIUS PETTIGREW, M.D., formerly lecturer at St. George's Hospital, London.\n\nI have no hesitation in stating that I have never met with any medicine so efficacious as an Anti-spasmodic and Sedative. I have used it in Consumption, Asthma, Diarrhea, and other diseases, and am perfectly satisfied with the results.\n\nFrom Symes & Co., Pharmaceutical Chemists, Medical Hall, Simla-January 5, 1880.\n\nTo J. T. DAVENPORT, Esq., 33, Great Russell Street, Bloomsbury, London.\n\nDEAR SIR,-Have the goodness to furnish us with your best quotations for Dr. J. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne, as, being large buyers, we would much prefer doing business with you direct than through the wholesale houses. We embrace this opportunity of congratulating you upon the wide-spread reputation this justly-esteemed medicine has earned for itself, not only in Hindostan, but all over the East. As a remedy of general utility, we much question whether a better is imported into the country, and we shall be glad to hear of its finding a place in every Anglo-Indian home. The other brands, we are happy to say, are now relegated to the native bazaars, and, judging from their sale, we fancy their sojourn there will be but evanescent. We could multiply instances ad infinitum of the extraordinary efficacy of Dr. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne in Diarrhoea and Dysentery, Spasms, Cramp, Neuralgia, the Vomiting of Pregnancy, and as a general sedative, that have occurred under our personal observation during many years. Choleraic Diarrhea, and even in the more terrible forms of Cholera itself, we have witnessed its surprisingly controlling power. We have never used any other form of this medicine than Collis Browne's, from a firm conviction that it is decidedly the best, and also from a sense of duty we owe to the profession and the public, as we are of opinion that the substitution of any other than Collis Browne's is a deliberate breach of faith on the part of the chemist to prescriber and patient alike. We are, Sir, faithfully yours,\n\nSYMES & CO.,\n\nMembers of the Pharm. Society of Great Britain, His Excellency the Viceroy's Chemists.\n\nFrom J. M'GRIGOR CROFT, M.D., M.R.C.P., London, late Staff-Surgeon to H.M. Forces.\n\nNovember 26, 1859,\n\nSir, After prescribing Dr. J. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne for the last three years, in severe cases of Neuralgia and Tic-Douloureux, I feel that I am in a position to testify to its valuable effects. Really, in some cases it acted as a charm, when all other means had failed. Without being asked for this report, I must come forward and state my candid opinion that it is a most valuable medicine, and I have recommended several chemists in this neighbourhood not to be without it for prescriptions.\n\nFrom Jno. E. GOULSTONE, M.D., late Principal Surgeon to the Steam-Ship Great Eastern.\n\nI can confidently state that Chlorodyne is an admirable Sedative and Anti-spasmodic, having used it in Neuralgia, Hysteria, Asthma, and Consumption, with remarkably favourable results. It relieved a fit of Asthma in four minutes, where the patient had suffered eleven years in a most distressing manner, previous remedy having had so immediate and beneficial an effect.\n\nFrom DR. B. J. BOULTON & Co., Horncastle.\n\nWe have made pretty extensive use of Chlorodyne in our practice lately, and look upon it as an excellent direct Sedative and Anti-spasmodic. It seems to allay pain and irritation in whatever organ, or from whatever cause. It induces a feeling of comfort and quietude not obtainable by any other remedy, and it seems to possess this great advantage over all other Sedatives, that it leaves no unpleasant after effects.\n\nA BILL\n\nENTITLED\n\nAn Ordinance for the regulation of the consumption of Morphine and for the suppression of the pernicious practice of administering or injecting preparations of Morphine by unqualified persons.\n\nWHEREAS it is desirable to regulate the consumption of Morphine in this Colony and to forbid the administration or injection of preparations of Morphine except in cases where such treatment has been prescribed by some duly qualified medical practitioner.\n\nBe it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-\n\n1. This Ordinance may be cited as \"The Morphine Ordinance, 1895.\"\n\n2. For the purposes of this Ordinance, Morphine shall include Morphia and every preparation thereof.\n\n3. Any person, not being a duly qualified medical practitioner, who shall administer by injection or otherwise any Morphine to any other person, except in cases where the same has been prescribed by some duly qualified medical practitioner, shall, on conviction before a Magistrate, be liable to a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars or to imprisonment with or without hard labour not exceeding three months.\n\nThe onus of proving the exception shall lie on the person so administering the Morphine.\n\n4. Any person, not being a duly qualified medical practitioner, who shall, except in cases where Morphine has been prescribed by some duly qualified medical practitioner, furnish Morphine or a hypodermic syringe or other appliance for the injection of Morphine, to any person, except a duly qualified medical practitioner, shall, on conviction before a Magistrate, be liable to a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars, or to imprisonment with or without hard labour not exceeding three months.\n\nThe onus of proving the exception shall lie on the person furnishing Morphine or a hypodermic syringe or other appliances as aforesaid.\n\n5. Any person, not being a duly qualified medical practitioner or a chemist or druggist actually carrying on business as such, who shall have in his possession any Morphine or any preparation of Morphine shall, on conviction before a Magistrate, be liable to a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars and, in default of payment, to imprisonment with or without hard labour not exceeding three months. Provided that this section shall not apply to cases where Morphine has been prescribed by a duly qualified medical practitioner.\n\n6. No prosecution shall be commenced under section 5 of this Ordinance without the fiat of the Attorney General.",

The somewhat superfluously exaggerated part played by Germany after the events of 1900; the large sums of money lavished on the fortification and development of Kiaochau; the ostentatious display of the German naval ensign on the Yang-tze, a river on which, except at the one port of Hankow, no German merchants are to be found; the creation of a Consulate at Ich'ang, where there is absolutely no German trade; the persistence with which the matter of the very questionable right to engage in target practice on the Poyang Lake is being fought; the erection at Shanghae of a palatial post-office, quite beyond the needs of any postal service carried on; the strenuous efforts made to collect funds wherewith to build a club which, by its grandeur, is to advertise the German name; the increase of salary and allowances granted to the German Consul-General, in order to enable him to take up a social position higher than that of his colleagues, constitute a bundle of straws, sufficiently indicative of the direction in which the wind is blowing.\n\nGreat Britain enjoyed for so many years such complete commercial supremacy in China that it was only natural that, so soon as her competitors realized the possibilities for trading which this Empire affords, and endeavoured to obtain their legitimate share thereof, she should have been compelled to relinquish a certain proportion of her erstwhile monopoly. To argue from that, however, that her total trade has declined, or that her stake in the country is less than it was before, would be ludicrous.\n\nThe veil of reticence within which the British merchant, as a rule, chooses to shroud his affairs is one which the British official feels a certain amount of delicacy in removing; and it is, therefore, not easy for him to collect the data necessary to traverse the statements of the German compiler of this publication of the Central Union, who has evidently been copiously supplied with figures not usually accessible. Taking, however, such material as is at his disposal, the writer will endeavour to criticize, \"Wherever we turn our eyes on seriatim, the various German contentions put forward. China we find. German effort at work.\" This is not strictly in accordance with fact. German enterprise has not, so far, effectively penetrated north of Hankow, into Ssuch'uan, nor into Yunnan. It does not participate in the handling of China's two most valuable staples of export, silk and tea, which together represent nearly 50 per cent. of the total value of native produce exported. A hybrid firm, which calls itself German or British as for the moment may be most convenient, does, it is true, export a considerable quantity of silk, but to which side of the account is it to be placed? Similarly, of imports there are quite 50 per cent. in which no German can claim a share. To turn to the shipping figures. The statement that the German flag has taken second place in Chinese waters is untrue. For 1903 the percentages are as follows:\n\n| Country | Per cent. |\n| --- | --- |\n| Great Britain | 49.08 |\n| China (including junks under the cognizance of the Imperial Maritime Customs) | 17.30 |\n| Japan | 14.00 |\n| Germany | 12.75 |\n\nThere is not a single merchant-vessel flying the German flag trading on any lake in China. The great part of China's coasting and river trade, carried on under the German flag, amounted, in 1903, to 7.92 per cent. The British proportion was 45.20 per cent. All German Companies put together may have \"no less than twenty-five steam-ships in the regular coasting trade of the Empire\"; one British Company alone has exactly double that number. On the Lower Yang-tsze, between Shanghae and Hankow, five German steamers ply now as in 1902. They are all said to be unprofitable carriers, and the proportion of cargo they obtain is less than 10 per cent. of what one British Company can secure for itself. Recent returns would seem to show that, so far from making any advance, they are actually losing ground. On the Upper Yang-tsze, Hankow-Ich'ang, one German steamer ran, but was lately withdrawn, and is now for sale. The exiguous \"thread of Empire,\" she was engaged in spinning, shrunk by some 20 per cent. in years. It is quite possible that in 1902 the Germans had thirty coasting vessels trading from Hankow, but in 1904 only one German steamer loaded from there coastwise against twenty-eight British. While the British and the Chinese Companies, who control the trade between Hankow and Swatow, were quarrelling with the Swatow Guild, the latter invoked German assistance. Those concerned fought hard to hold their own, but, as they could not grant the facilities required and sustained an admitted loss of 60 per cent. of their capital, they were compelled to quit the field. An equally unsuccessful effort was made to capture a share of the carrying trade between Shanghae and Ningpo.\n\nBritish steamers, in 1904, carried from Swatow to Shanghae and the north, out of 299,000,000 packages, 157,000,000 against 5,000,000 carried by German steamers. Perhaps the most important section of the coasting trade is that to and from Newchuang, and this the Germans hardly touch. They have four steamers running to Chefoo, Tientsin, and Tsingtao, and they naturally receive the support of German firms both upwards and downwards, but the bulk of the trade is in the hands of Chinese, who are strong supporters of the British Companies.\n\nRecently British steamers have been running to Tsingtao, and so formidable is their competition that the Hamburg-Amerika Linie is agitating to have them excluded from that port entirely.\n\nAs regards the coolie traffic from Swatow and Amoy to the Straits and Siam, this is conducted in Chinese-owned steamers or in Dutch and German boats, of which two latter the agency is held by a British firm. It is freely rumoured that the German Companies intend to place twelve new steamers on the China coast, and, if they do so, they will doubtless, by cutting rates, secure a proportion of the trade, but, everything being equal, we have no cause to feel alarmed, as in 1904 the two large British Coasting Companies increased their fleets by ten vessels, and are building more. As has been stated, any movement on the part of German shipping on the coast has been of a retrograde nature, and, in so far as their transoceanic trade is concerned, their finest advertisements, the \"König Albert\" and the \"Hamburg,\" had lately to be withdrawn because they were losing money so heavily.\n\nIn the matter of catering for the large and growing passenger traffic between Europe and the Far East, it is frankly acknowledged that the German Companies have completely outdistanced their competitors, but it would be interesting to learn whether or not they have sought to swell their passenger figures by including therein time-expired men from or reliefs to the Kiaochau garrison.\n\nIn order effectively to criticize the tonnage statistics adduced, one would require to know what proportion of British-owned goods and produce British steamers carried to and fro. As it is, one's only approximate guide is the Customs percentage table of foreign trade, inwards and outwards, carried under each flag, which, however, affords no indication of national ownership. This gives for 1903:\n\n| Country | Per cent. |\n| --- | --- |\n| British | 47.57 |\n| Japanese | 13.38 |\n| German | 11.18 |\n\n(It may incidentally be remarked that, at first sight, the wording of the German statement is misleading. Total tonnage and total value refers not to the whole of China's trade, but to that small portion thereof carried in German steamers.)\n\nThe railway between Tsingtao and Chinan is a piece of work of which the Germans may justly feel proud, and the energy and expedition displayed in carrying it out should serve as a useful object-lesson to British dilatoriness and apathy in this particular field of enterprise. (The writer has gone fully into the prospects of this line in a Memorandum which appears in the Confidential prints for November 1904.)\n\nIt is not quite correct, however, to say that German engineers are actually engaged in building a second German railway, and the suppression of any reference to British co-operation in the construction of the line from Tien-tsin to the Yang-tsze is hardly straightforward.\n\nOutsiders do not hold the same optimistic views as the Central Union with regard to the coal which, up to date, the German Shantung Mining Company have turned out. Nor can it be said that the Society for Mining Industrial Effort Abroad has had much reason, so far, to congratulate itself. To compute the amount of German capital invested in industrial enterprises in Shanghae recourse must have been had to private information furnished by the individuals concerned, but to make up a similar statement from a British point of view would involve an officious prying into the affairs of others likely to be strongly resented.

        "content_text": "22\n\nThe recommendations of the Board with regard to the compilation and keeping of records have been carried out and the suggested review and re-valuation of securities is being made. Other minor matters to which the Board directed attention have been and are being dealt with.\n\n91. The Board investigated in the second place matters in connection with a number of the trust estates in the hands of the Official Trustee and estates in the hands of the Official Administrator.\n\nThe investigations of the Board pointed to a misapprehension by the Official Trustee of the onerous duties of his office.\n\nWe do not propose in this Report to deal with this matter at any length. It is sufficient for the present purpose to say that the Official Trustee had adopted a policy of inactivity which had in certain cases resulted in a failure to take steps to procure the due payment of interest on trust funds, and this had entailed the non-receipt by beneficiaries of that income which they should have received; in other cases there had been a failure to obtain valuations of properties on the security of which trust funds had been lent.\n\nThe trust accounts were not being kept in a satisfactory manner, a matter attributable to the absence of any trained accounting staff at the Registry.\n\nSince the submission of the Board's report steps have been taken to get in all outstanding arrears of interest, and the beneficiaries have received the payments due to them. The leasehold securities have been re-valued by the Valuations and Resumptions Officer and, where the margin of security was below that required by law, mortgages have been called in. It is not anticipated that any loss will ensue.\n\nThe Accountant appointed to the Supreme Court is taking steps to place the accounts on a proper footing, and the Audit of balance sheets prepared for the period up to the 31st March last was entirely satisfactory.\n\nPart III.\n\nTHE SUPERVISION AND CONTROL EXERCISEABLE BY THE TREASURER OVER THE ACCOUNTS OF DEPARTMENTS OTHER THAN THE TREASURY.\n\n92. The subject matter of this part of our Report assumes considerable importance in view of the defalcations and financial irregularities which have occurred, not only recently but also in times past, in departments other than the Treasury; and it has an important bearing on the question of the necessity for strengthening the staff of the Treasury.\n\n93. Colonial Regulations impose on the Treasurer the duty of seeing that the proper system of account is established in every department, and also of exercising strict supervision over all the officers of his department and sub-accountants entrusted with the receipt or expenditure of public money; and of taking precautions, by the maintenance of efficient checks, against the occurrence of fraud, embezzlement or carelessness in connection therewith (Col. Reg. 218(i) and (v)). He is also required personally or by his deputy, to make surprise inspections of the accounts of his sub-accountants (Col. Reg. No. 219).\n\n94. Mr. Messer, in the course of his evidence, argued strongly that heads of departments who receive and expend public moneys are not sub-accountants within the meaning of the Colonial Regulations. He regards as sub-accountants only those who are officers of the Treasury Department, and would say that in this Colony there is only one true sub-accountant—the officer in charge of the Stamp Office. Any others who may be charged with the receipt and expenditure of public moneys he would put under the designations of \"Collectors\", \"Accounting Officers\" and \"Heads of Departments\".\n\nIn his opinion the term \"sub-accountant\" as used in Colonial Regulations refers to a class of detached Treasury Officials, acting directly under the Treasurer as head of their department and capable, inter alia, of giving, within their own districts, a good discharge to Heads of Departments for moneys collected by them, and of accounting for those moneys to the Treasury. Colonial Regulations 269, 270, 292, 319 and 321 were cited by him in support of this contention.\n\n79",

Secy and Chief Justice of Hong Kong, I did not get much further. The medical dept has no official or unofficial connection with the brothels and the medical work in the hotels is done by private practitioners, some of whom specialize in it. So far as I can discover, the European staff have very second-hand knowledge of what is going on and the only two departments really informed are those of the Secy for Chinese affairs - who supervises the licences distribution, and the Police who supervise the conduct of the houses.\n\nI would suggest a much shorter dispatch, saying that the Governor wishes Hong Kong to come into line with Ceylon, Malaya, and other places where a brothel system formerly tolerated and recognised by Govt. has now abolished with satisfactory results. He is advised that expert medical opinion now holds that there is no real safeguard against the spread of venereal diseases and that the abolition of tolerated houses in Ceylon and Malaya has not led to an increase in the incidence. The recognition by Govt. of the permits to women to practice prostitution in these houses is contrary to public opinion in Britain, and to an increasing degree, throughout the world. He is well aware that this recognition and the issuing of permits is intended, not to indicate Govt. approval or encouragement of commercialized prostitution, but for the protection of women and girls from white slave traffickers who are brought to enter upon this occupation of their own free will. As they are, however, registered by the brothel keepers, who are very familiar with the several questions to be answered by the applicant, it is doubtful whether the procedure fully secures the issue...",

Not a few studies directed to this end have been made, alike on animals and on young human subjects. The results of some of these are unconvincing owing to inadequate planning of the experiments or for other reasons, but others deserve attention and indicate that the availability of lime and phosphate is less in pasteurised than in raw milk. Quite the best series of observations bearing on this matter involved a comparison not with raw but with boiled milk (Daniels & Stearns, 1924; and Daniels, Stearns, & Hutton, 1929). It is known, however, and the fact will receive later comment, that when milk is briefly boiled and immediately cooled the changes involved are relatively slight. At any rate in observations of the kind the use of boiled rather than raw milk as a control, if of any significance, must favour the pasteurised milk in the comparison. In the carefully controlled experiments under reference, made by investigators experienced in the technique of infant feeding, comparable groups of young children, placed in precisely similar circumstances, were given equal rations of milk, respectively boiled or pasteurised by the holding process. During the experimental period it was found that the children on boiled milk showed a daily gain of lime to their bodies thrice as great as that shown by those on pasteurised milk, and a notably greater gain of phosphorus. This experiment involved a comparison that was rigorous and, it would seem, conclusive in favour of the boiled milk. It is not without confirmation from other evidence to be found in the literature of the subject (Catel, 1933; Kramer, Latzke, & Shaw, 1928; and Willard & Blunt, 1927).\n\n76. Another circumstance calls, however, for reference here. The retention of calcium and phosphorus in the body, and their proper utilisation in bone formation, are now universally recognised to be controlled by the functioning of vitamin D (infra). As part of the above investigation other comparable groups of children were therefore given the same milk ration, boiled or pasteurised, but with the addition of cod-liver oil to increase in each case the supply of the vitamin. These latter groups showed a much greater retention of the elements in question, and only in these, even in the case of the boiled milk, did it reach the amount commonly assumed to be adequate for the proper growth of infants. Before pressing this last point further it will be convenient to make a brief general reference to the function of vitamins and the effect of pasteurisation upon them. (For an account of the literature of vitamins to 1932, see the report included in `appendix 7` as Anonymous, 1932\".)\n\n77. Germane to the whole question is the circumstance that the vitamin supply, whether provided by breast milk or raw cows' milk, is never in excess of the needs of the infant. In the case of the milk normally provided for the young of any species of animal, it can be understood that the amount of each vitamin is part of a general balance among the constituents of the milk as adjusted to the \n\n[9837]\n4.6",

        "content_text": "such importance, namely, \"that the Crown should not, at the expiration of leases, confiscate the whole value of the tenants' improvements.\" \n\n8 \n\n\"(The point about activation in paragraphs 6 may require further Consideration) \n\nI am not quite happy, however, about the position generally, because I cannot help feeling that it is at any rate arguable that the Government led people in Hong Kong to believe that in due course fresh leases for 75 years would be granted at a re-assessed rent without any fine or premium (whether in that form or in the form of additional rent) and they act accordingly and, if that were so, questions of good faith would be involved. \n\nH.D. \n11/2/41 \n\nI add to para 3. \nMr. Gratt. \n15/2 \n\nI think that I am in addition to para. 3 is an understatement though it does not, of course, dispose of the point in the last para. of my minute of `1/2/41`. \n\n17/2/41 \nA.D. \n\nRegarding that point, however, we know from No 6 that, in the Col Govt's view, the Govt have not led people to believe it. \n\nI now submit the draft despatch for Consul I approval \nS/Gant. 19/2 \n\nPage 363\n\nI see no objection to the draft from a legal standpoint \nHolden \nUnd 26/2/41 \nSir C. Parkinson. \n21.2·41 \n\nThis is a question of the conditions on which certain Crown leases in Hong Kong, originally granted for a term of 75 years, may be renewed when they expire. A note on the points at issue is to be found as No. 13 in this file, but briefly the situation is as follows. \n\nLeases in Hong Kong were first granted for 75 years, but in 1848 (7 years after the founding of the Colony) the Secretary of State approved the grant of these leases for 999 years. Many years later (about 1880) the issue of 999 year leases ceased, and a system was introduced of granting 75 year leases without option of renewal. It is the small group of leases of this character which concerns the present problem. \n\nIn 1898 a standard lease for a period of 75 years, renewable for another 75 years without premium, was introduced, the Crown rent for the second period to be fixed at the fair and reasonable rental value of the ground at the date of renewal. This last form of lease has since been the normal form in the Colony. \n\nThe relatively small number of 75 year leases without option of renewal which were issued between 1880 and 1898 were the subject of a report by a special committee of the Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce, whose recommendations are principally based on the claim that it was generally believed in Hong Kong that when the 1898 decision was taken to issue 75 year leases renewable for a further 75 years without payment of premium, the former simple 75 year leases would be similarly treated, viz. would be renewable for another 75 years without payment of premium. \n\nThe Acting Governor, in No. 6, says that there is no real weight in that argument, and that there was no official statement which could be cited in support of it. He nevertheless agreed with an opinion previously recorded by Sir G. Northcote that the claim of a tenant, who had faithfully fulfilled his contractual duty, to favourable treatment should not be disregarded, but that such treatment should not go so far as to relieve the tenant of his obligation to make a complete surrender of the property in good order on the expiration of the 75 year lease. General Norton suggested that the concession to the tenant might take the form of the offer of a new lease at full economic rent calculated on the value of the land and buildings thereon. \n\nThe Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce claims that the leases should be renewable for 75 years, the Crown rents being increased to the rates then prevailing in the locality, but that no other expense should be incurred by the lessee. \n\nSir",

        "content_text": "# APPENDIX 14\n## BUILDING MATERIALS PROCUREMENT, STORAGE AND CONTROL OF ISSUES\n\nThis Report sets forth certain proposals in connection with the fifth and sixth of the terms of reference of the Committee, that is to say:-\n\n\"(v) To advise on the policy for importation of building materials.\n(vi) To recommend what Government control (if any) should be imposed to ensure that materials in short supply are allocated in the best interests of the community.\"\n\n2. In regard to the importation of building materials, present procurement action is through the following channels:\n\n### A. Military Procurement\n\n(a) Military procurement of all the items in Sheets 90-91 of Appendix “A” to War Office Memorandum `B.M.C.A. 13/7834` of the 23rd August, 1945, has been sanctioned by the Validities Sub-Committee of the War Office Shipping and Supplies Committee, and action to call forward these supplies has been taken. They were intended to constitute a \"first-aid\" provision only, in connection with building reconstruction during the military period.\n\n(b) Certain building materials have been received by Col. C.A. (Works) from `D.C.E. 144`, as immediate provision to meet pressing needs for repairs and reconstruction in the interests of the Military Administration.\n\n### B. Civil Procurement\n\n(a) Procurement by the Crown Agents for the Colonies is in progress on indents prepared by the Hong Kong Planning Unit of the Colonial Office, against ad hoc sanctions of expenditure issued by the Treasury as an ultimate charge against the funded debt of the Colony. Procurement of further requirements through this channel is under consideration.\n\n(b) Procurement of building materials in Australia, New Guinea and Okinawa, from military surpluses and other sources, has been and is being effected on Government account.\n\n### C. Commercial Procurement\n\n(a) Certain prominent foreign firms are procuring materials for importation for sale, and/or for the rehabilitation of their own premises.\n\n(b) Procurement to an unknown extent by Chinese and other local contractors has begun, and is increasing with the development of communications and trade with the mainland.\n\nThe quantities of materials known to be under procurement through the above channels are quite inadequate for the huge programme of reconstruction with which the Colony is faced. If the accommodation factor is not to retard the rehabilitation of the Colony, an active policy in the stimulation of imports of building materials must be pursued. With the end of the military period, military procurement will presumably be limited to procurement for the repair and reconstruction of Services buildings, and it is therefore by the development of programmes of procurement on Government account and on commercial account that the needs of the Colony must be met.\n\n### Development of Procurement\n\n(a) Development of procurement on Government account. Where materials are in short supply and perhaps subject to allocation, or where Government-to-Government disposal of Military and other surpluses offers peculiarly favourable terms of purchase, the advantages of procurement on Government account are manifest; and, provided that such supplies, thus procured, as may not be required for direct use on Government buildings are sold without delay within the Colony, the financial liability of the Government will be limited, and extensive expenditure of Government funds, on a temporary basis, would appear to be unobjectionable.\n\n(b) Development of procurement on commercial account. A number of factors, which are examined in the Report of the Committee, may have deterred, and may still deter, commercial and private enterprise from procurement. These factors need not be cited here; it is sufficient to state that everything possible should be effected along the lines recommended by the Committee to promote confidence and enterprise in this connection. An important element in giving effect to this policy would be the extension to commercial firms of the advantages which Government may enjoy in its own procurement, whether by way of obtaining priorities in allocations of materials in short supply; by acceleration of delivery dates through official intervention in the countries of supply; or by securing early shipments on favourable freights. Such aid could be given in many directions, and as specialised knowledge is required, the establishment of a small ad hoc official organisation for the purpose would be desirable. The essential condition would be the development and maintenance of the spirit of co-operation between Government departments and commercial enterprise which is already proving effective in the rehabilitation of public utilities. Full exchange of information as to availabilities; the establishment of an official agency for the dissemination of such information, and for the sponsoring of commercial procurement; and the maintenance of the present Hongkong \"Rear Link\" in London, and of the Hongkong agency in Australia, to assist in such action, are indicated. In the present difficult times, the best results, to the common good of all elements in the community, will be achieved only by co-operation along the above lines in securing for Hongkong, at reasonable prices, an adequate supply of building materials.\n\n4. The development of import programmes, however, will not meet all the immediate dangers in the situation. If inflationary tendencies are to be countered, in connection with building costs as well as in other directions, some measures of control of the distribution and sale prices of building materials, after they have been imported, would appear to be essential.\n\nIt is clear that, owing to shortages of supplies, the reconstruction of damaged properties is being retarded. As such materials are durable, and can be stored for fairly long periods, deliberate hoarding to maintain high prices must be prevented, and control over their allocation must be exercised in the interests of the community. Action on the following lines will be necessary:\n\n### (a) Materials in Short Supply\n\n(i) It is recommended that the necessary powers be taken to secure periodical registration of stocks on hand, and as imported, together with particulars of the place of storage. The list of registrable materials may be increased or reduced as the supply situation develops.\n\n(ii) Licenses should be issued to importers of registrable materials for their sale to bona fide builders, stipulating the appropriate maximum prices, and prescribing a date by which they must be used in actual construction.\n\n(iii) Maximum prices for sales of such materials should be prescribed and announced from time to time, usually on the basis of landed cost plus a reasonable percentage for distributor and retailer.\n\n(iv) The use of the materials in construction should be subject to official inspection.\n\n(v) Government should take powers to requisition stocks of registrable materials where hoarding thereof may be evident.\n\n### (b) Materials not in Short Supply, Surpluses, Salvage, etc.\n\nIt would appear that, except where Military surpluses, or stocks on hand with the Custodian of Property, may be disposed of as under (7) above, control would not be effective, and it would be impolitic to attempt to introduce it.\n\n5. The above proposals to establish a system of registration in a Government pool do not imply any necessity for the physical custody of such materials to be assumed by Government. Their storage, in the interval between importation and use, could be the responsibility of the importer. The Stores Department would store materials imported by Government, and commercial and private importers would store in their own Godowns the materials imported by them. The controlling organisation would at all times have access thereto for inspection.\n\n6. The necessary legal sanctions to secure compliance with the regulations regarding registration and licensing for use should include, in addition to a substantial maximum fine, provision for the confiscation by Government of any registrable materials in respect of which an offense might have been committed.\n\n7. The active intervention of Government, in connection both with the procurement and with the disposal of building materials in short supply, would appear to be an unavoidable necessity at the present time. The additional costs to the taxpayer of maintaining, for a year or two, the ad hoc organisations required to further procurement programmes, on the one hand, and to control the disposal of materials in short supply, on the other hand, would be more than offset by the advantages of securing a reduction in landed costs and of the prevention of the profiteering which the present abnormal situation must inevitably encourage.\n\n**(Signed)** W.
