        "content_text": "# JOURNAL OFFICIEL DE LA RÉPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE\n\n756 (1885) 12 Février\n\nUn commandant particulier a été également envoyé à Aninie; la perception d'un faible droit de sortie sur les exportations d'huile de palme suffira pour subvenir aux dépenses résultant de la création de cette administration qui était instamment demandée par les négociants français établis à la côte d'Or. Enfin, la ratification officielle de 72 traités passés avec différents chefs de la côte d'Ivoire, de la côte d'Or et des régions avoisinant le Gabon, a permis à notre diplomatie de se présenter à la conférence de Berlin, munie de titres réguliers.\n\nAu Sénégal, nous avons récolté ce qu'avaient préparé les glorieuses et pénibles campagnes des années précédentes. Les couleurs françaises flottent sur le Haut-Niger; nous y avons lancé une première canonnière, et cet événement a eu jusqu'au centre de l'Afrique un retentissement tel que la Djemma de Tombouctou n'a pas hésité à envoyer un ambassadeur au Sénégal pour porter à la colonie et à l'administration la parole de paix et d'amitié, et les assurer de son désir de nouer bientôt avec la France des relations permanentes.\n\nC'est dans cette voie que, d'accord avec leurs représentants, nous les encourageons à entrer. Il appartiendra à la métropole de faciliter cette transformation en abaissant, à l'entrée en France, les droits qui frappent les produits coloniaux.\n\nLa Guadeloupe, la Réunion et la Martinique, ont donné un gage des sentiments de solidarité qui les unissent à la métropole en votant, sur la demande du département, un tarif de douanes qui assure de sérieux avantages aux produits de l'industrie métropolitaine.\n\nPar une équitable réciprocité, elles sont en droit de demander un traitement de faveur pour leurs produits à l'entrée en France. Je n'épargnerai, en ce qui me concerne, aucun effort pour arriver à ce résultat désirable, et j'ai la satisfaction de constater que, sous la réserve de l'étude plus complète de cette détaxe, M. le ministre des finances n'est pas opposé au principe de ce projet.\n\n## Dans l'Inde\n\nLes mêmes considérations qui ont déterminé la création d'Obock ont amené le ministre à ordonner l'établissement à Pondichery et à Mahé de dépôts de charbon qui dispenseront nos navires de relâcher à Singapour. La présence de nos bâtiments dans ces ports y produira un mouvement des plus profitables aux intérêts de la métropole et de la colonie.\n\nJe n'aurais, en outre, dans nos établissements de l'Inde, qu'à signaler l'heureux apaisement amené par l'application, pour l'élection des conseils électifs, du décret du 26 février 1884, qui est votre œuvre, messieurs, si malheureusement les désastres causés par de terribles inondations n'étaient venus momentanément troubler l'essor de la colonie. Vous savez qu'une subvention de 300,000 fr. a été votée par la Chambre pour pourvoir aux premiers besoins; les derniers rapports reçus de Pondichéry me font craindre que ce ne soit un secours bien insuffisant et que le Gouvernement ne soit bientôt amené à faire un nouvel appel au Parlement.\n\n## Autres Colonies\n\nSur la côte orientale d'Afrique, nous citons la création d'un établissement nouveau auquel l'avenir réserve, je crois, une grande importance. Nos droits à Obock remontent à 1862, mais il n'y avait eu jusqu'à présent aucune prise de possession officielle. Les opérations militaires engagées dans l'Extrême-Orient doivent être appliquées à la conférence de Berlin.\n\nLe conseil colonial, après avis de la chambre de commerce de Saigon, a voté un projet de tarif douanier, préparé conformément à nos instructions, et qui, dans l'union douanière de la presqu'île indo-chinoise, constituée au Cambodge, à l'Annam et au Tonkin, assurera aux produits français une détaxe de 75 p.100 sur les droits qu'il comprend et qui varient de 10 à 15 p. 100 de la valeur des différents produits. J'espère être prochainement en mesure de soumettre cet important travail à votre examen.\n\nLe département ne néglige, du reste, aucun des moyens dont il peut disposer pour ouvrir au commerce national les débouchés que promettent les marchés de l'Indo-Chine.\n\nLa concession des mines de l'Annam et du Tonkin qui résultera de l'adjudication, et leur exploitation seront réglées dans le sens du travail d'une commission qui s'est entourée des renseignements qu'ont pu lui fournir, à Paris, tous les hommes compétents et qui complètera son étude d'après les rapports d'une mission que le département va prochainement envoyer sur les lieux.\n\n## Mesures Économiques\n\nDans un même ordre d'idées, le tarif de droits différentiels sur lequel vous avez été appelés à donner votre avis dans une précédente session a été promulgué par le décret du 27 août 1884. La Cochinchine, d'autre part, vient de transmettre au département un projet qui sera certainement favorablement accueilli par l'industrie métropolitaine.\n\nMais si, au point de vue administratif et politique, l'intervention du département n'a que de rares occasions de s'exercer à la Réunion, à la Martinique et à la Guadeloupe, la crise économique que traversent ces colonies est malheureusement une source d'incessantes préoccupations. Nous avons dû pourvoir aux nécessités du moment par des mesures concertées avec le département des finances. Je citerai le décret du 18 août, autorisant l'émission de bons de caisse à la Martinique et à la Guadeloupe; le décret du 6 décembre dernier autorisant la banque de la Réunion à porter son capital de trois à quatre millions.\n\nCette extension de notre influence pourra, dans un avenir prochain, faire d'Obock un port de transit sérieux. Derrière la côte qui constitue notre nouvelle possession s'étend, en effet, une vaste et fertile région encore peu explorée : le Choa. Le sol y est fertile et les richesses qu'il produit n'attendent pour fournir les éléments d'un trafic considérable que l'établissement de débouchés faciles et de voies de communication. Or, c'est à Tadjourah qu'aboutit le chemin suivi par les caravanes. Il est donc permis d'espérer que notre colonie d'Obock bénéficiera dans une large mesure du courant commercial que l'action civilisatrice des puissances européennes qui explorent cette partie de l'Afrique ne manquera pas d'établir entre le Choa et les ports de la mer Rouge.\n\nMais, nous ne nous faisons pas d'illusion sur la portée et l'efficacité de ces mesures: le véritable remède à la crise agricole et industrielle dont souffrent ces colonies sucrières, résultera d'une transformation partielle de leur production par le développement des cultures secondaires : les cafés, cacaos, vanilles, etc.\n\nD'autre part, sur la demande qui lui a été adressée par le département, la banque de l'Indo-Chine s'est préoccupée d'installer au Tonkin une succursale de son établissement de crédit, qui rendra les plus grands services aux négociants qui se sont installés à Haï-Phong et à Hanoi, et à ceux qui n'attendent que la pacification complète du pays pour s'y établir.\n\nUn service de renseignements, destiné à fournir aux immigrants toutes les indications qui peuvent leur être utiles pour faciliter leur installation, fonctionne à Haï-Phong, parallèlement au bureau d'informations commerciales, chargé de centraliser les renseignements recueillis par les résidents sur les productions, le commerce et l'industrie du pays, et de fournir au département tous les renseignements qui peuvent contribuer à faire exactement connaître le Tonkin.\n\n## Administration Coloniale\n\nSi, dans la voie que je viens d'indiquer, quelque pas en avant a été fait, une grande part de l'honneur en revient à vous, messieurs, qui n'avez cessé de prêter à l'administration le concours le plus empressé et le plus dévoué.\n\nJe profite de cette occasion pour souhaiter ici la bienvenue, comme vice-président du conseil, à notre collègue M. Berlet, appelé, par un décret récent du Président de la République, à remplacer dans cette fonction M. Rouvier, ministre du commerce. M. Berlet, par sa grande expérience des questions administratives et parlementaires, représente au bureau du conseil l'élément métropolitain; l'élément colonial est, vous le savez, messieurs, représenté par la plus haute, la plus vénérée personnalité des colonies françaises, notre cher doyen M. Victor Schoelcher, le plus jeune de nous par la chaleur du cœur et l'ardeur qu'il apporte à la défense de toutes les causes justes et généreuses.\n\nJ'ai trouvé au sein de l'administration des colonies des collaborateurs précieux. Je n'ai pas à faire ici l'éloge des chefs de service qui vous sont personnellement connus et qui sont devenus vos collègues; mais je serai l'interprète de leurs sentiments en même temps que des miens en rappelant le zèle, le labeur constant et modeste des fonctionnaires placés ici sous leurs ordres et des agents qui, aux divers degrés de la hiérarchie, représentent notre administration aux colonies.\n\n## Nouvelle-Calédonie\n\nEn Nouvelle-Calédonie, la reprise de l'immigration néo-hébridais a fourni à la colonie la main-d'œuvre qui lui est nécessaire pour le développement de ses exploitations industrielles et agricoles. Mais si ces opérations ont été de nouveau autorisées, ce n'est qu'à la condition que, par un contrôle sérieux de l'administration, elles ne perdent jamais le caractère de contrats librement consentis. Notre surveillance sur ce point ne sera pas mise en défaut, et la première infraction aux règles de l'humanité serait le signal d'une nouvelle et immédiate interdiction.\n\nJe ne terminerai pas cette revue rapide sans dire un mot d'une question qui, à Nouméa, nous a valu de vives récriminations: je veux parler du décret du 16 août 1884 portant délimitation du territoire pénitentiaire. Notre honorable collègue M. Moncalon ne m'en voudra pas de dire que les protestations que les colons ont adressées à ce sujet au département ont été empreintes d'une manifeste exagération.\n\nLa loi du 30 mai 1854, sur l'application de la peine des travaux forcés, a fait de la Nouvelle-Calédonie une colonie pénitentiaire; elle a prévu que des concessions de terres pourraient être accordées au bout d'un certain temps aux transportés; il était donc de toute nécessité, sous peine d'être amené dans un temps donné à ne plus appliquer la loi, de déterminer la réserve du domaine dont l'Etat peut disposer pour la transportation. Est-ce à dire qu'il soit question de dépouiller les colons libres, ou d'écarter de la colonie ceux qui voudraient s'y établir? Loin de nous cette pensée! et je puis affirmer hautement que dans l'application du décret du 16 août il sera tenu le plus grand compte des droits acquis par les colons, et que des terres considérables resteront disponibles pour ceux qui voudront les exploiter sérieusement.\n\nEnfin, messieurs, je n'oublie pas que, si les entreprises coloniales de la France ont été couronnées de succès, nous le devons avant tout aux héroïques efforts de nos marins et de nos soldats. J'ai pu, dans certaines parties de l'exposé que je viens de faire, heurter les opinions de quelques-uns d'entre vous; je suis certain à l'avance de réunir l'unanimité de vos approbations en vous proposant d'unir dans un même sentiment de patriotique reconnaissance tous ceux - obscurs ou glorieux - qui, soit au Tonkin, soit à Madagascar ou dans les mers de Chine, luttent au loin pour faire respecter le nom de la France et le drapeau national.\n\n## Conclusion\n\nEn résumé, messieurs, le programme dont, sous la haute et libérale direction de l'amiral Peyron, j'ai eu l'honneur de poursuivre la réalisation, peut se résumer comme suit :\n\nComme politique extérieure, conservation et exercice effectif des droits de la France;\n\nComme politique économique, protection des intérêts de la production métropolitaine dans les colonies; protection sur le marché métropolitain de la production coloniale.\n\nEnfin, notre administration s'est appuyée sur une double base: en France, appel aux conseils éclairés et à l'expérience pratique des représentants élus des colonies; aux colonies, création d'assemblées locales recrutées par le suffrage universel.\n\nM. Paul Brunat, chargé d'une mission commerciale au Tonkin, vient d'adresser au sous-secrétaire d'Etat de la marine et des colonies le rapport suivant, où il consigne le résultat sommaire de ses observations.\n\nL'initiative de la mission que je viens de remplir au Tonkin est due à la chambre de commerce de Lyon qui, au mois de mai dernier, me fit demander à Saigon, où je résidais, si j'étais disposé à l'entreprendre, et qui, sur ma réponse affirmative, proposa aux diverses autres chambres de commerce de France de se joindre à elle et de m'envoyer des questionnaires sur ce qui pouvait les intéresser.",

I gather that you had in mind the provisions of Vol. Reg. 76 which D. (39869/19) admits M Jacks having been granted half the initial salary plus an allowance on his substantive appointment; but Col. Ry. 76 is not applicable to the case of the Land Officer. I should be prepared to recommend to the Secretary of State for approval the grant of a bonus to M. Jacks if it can be shown that he has had to perform a considerable amount of additional work to the satisfaction of the Director. But in view of para 4 of my predecessor's despatch No. 338 of the 31st Dec 1909, I consider that any bonus that may be granted must depend, not on the lapsing half salary that may be available, but on the additional work performed; I therefore desire to know what extra duties have been imposed on M. Jacks before deciding on the amount of the bonus in this case?",

When a foreign ship whilst in the waters of the Colony is unsafe by reason of the defective condition of the hull, equipments, or machinery, or by reason of overloading or improper loading, the provisions of this Ordinance with respect to the detention of ships shall apply to that foreign ship as if she were a British ship, with the following modifications:—\n\n(1) a copy of the order for the provisional detention of the ship shall be forthwith served on the consular officer for the State to which the ship belongs, and, if there is no such consular officer, on the master of the ship;\n\n(2) where a ship has been provisionally detained, the consular officer on the request of the owner, agent, or master of the ship, and, if there is no such consular officer, the owner, agent, or master of the ship, may require that the person, if any, appointed by the Governor to survey the ship shall be accompanied by such person as the consular officer, or the owner, agent, or master, may select; and in such case if the surveyor and such person agree, the Governor shall cause the ship to be detained or released accordingly; but if they differ, the Governor may act as if the requisition had not been made, and the owner, agent, or master shall have the like appeal to the Court of Survey touching the report of the surveyor as is hereinbefore provided; and\n\n(3) where the owner, agent, or master of the ship appeals to the Court of Survey, the consular officer, on the request of such owner, agent, or master, or, if there is no such consular officer, the owner, agent, or master, may nominate any competent person or persons to be members of the Court of Survey, not exceeding two.\n\n18a.

To correct and format it according to the given rules, the following steps are taken:\n\n1. **Removing unnecessary characters and correcting spelling errors**: The text contains characters and words that are not clear or are incorrect due to OCR errors. For example, \"со\", \"ва\", \"baving\", \"concerts.\" (appearing twice), \"logogo\", \"Jintarit Jjts.\", \"harten\", \"igis\" are either corrected or left as is if they are deemed to be part of the original text or not clearly incorrect.\n\n2. **Reorganizing the text into proper paragraphs**: The original text seems to be a jumbled collection of words and phrases. It is reorganized into paragraphs based on apparent sentence structures and content continuity.\n\n3. **Correcting spacing issues and hyphenation**: Extra spaces are removed, and missing spaces are added to improve readability.\n\n4. **Indicating missing words or unclear text**: Since there are several unclear words or phrases, it's essential to identify them.

It does not seem necessary to require that you should pay its value into the Treasury.\n\nAt the same time Mr. Churchill is not without apprehension as to possible consequences. It might easily occur to other Chinese that it was desirable to make presents to the Governor, with results that might be very embarrassing both to you and...\n\nThe precedent should be noted that he could not send back... I entirely agree with the presents [though they may be worth anything?] that I don't like it.\n\n...the one so informed, but obviously if it becomes a precedent it might be gradually extended & produce undesirable results: the Treasury in any possible way.\n\nThe question of condoning a breach of the Col.

It was known that the Seamen's\n\nUnion was attempting to call out all labour in the Colony,\n\nemploying methods of intimidation, and accordingly on the\n\n1st February the Union was declared to be an unlawful\n\nsociety, and its premises were closed. On the 8th February\n\nsimilar action was taken against the Stevedores, Cargo\n\nCarriers, and Tallymen's Unions, on the ground that they\n\nwere picketing the whole sea front and were intimidating\n\nothers from working. On the same date the export of coal,\n\nrice, and flour from the Colony was prohibited except under\n\npermit, and the export of silver bullion, already under permit, was subjected to special scrutiny; the ostensible\n\nreason being that it was necessary to conserve stocks. It\n\nwas known that Canton was already running short of supplies\n\nof all kinds, and, as regards silver bullion, the Hongkong\n\nGovernment became aware that the Canton Authorities were\n\nrelying for a very substantial part of their revenues upon\n\nthe profit made from the savviage of ten cent pieces from\n\nbar silver imported in immense quantities from Hongkong.\n\n15.\n\nThe position as between the shipowners and\n\nthe seamen was one of stalemate. There was evidence that\n\nthe seamen were most anxious for a settlement, and their delegates, who came to Hongkong on two occasions, appeared to be willing to discuss the matter on reasonable lines; but the Krok Man Tong interposed its authority and put its absolute ban on any conference which had not as its condi-",

        "content_text": "## International Situation\n\n**HOUSE OF COMMONS**\n\n[The Prime Minister.] transfer of Sudetenland, will be put in the same position as other involuntary emigrants from Germany with whom the committee is already concerned. As to whether it may be possible in the future to initiate a project of the dimensions which the right hon. Gentleman foreshadowed, that is evidently a matter with which I could not deal here. It is not one for this country alone. This is not a country which has the area or the opportunity for settling a large number of emigrants. The question concerns the world as a whole. I am sure that we shall all join in hoping that a solution may be found which will mitigate the sufferings of these unfortunate people. The right hon. Gentleman drew a gloomy picture of what might be called the economic sequences of the Munich Agreement, and he suggested that there was some sinister political motive behind the economic activities of Dr. Funk.\n\nMr. Dalton: Has not the right hon. Gentleman forgotten that my right hon. Friend asked him to make a statement as to the guarantees of the new Czechoslovakian frontier?\n\nThe Prime Minister: I am very much obliged to the hon. Gentleman. I had forgotten the question, but, as a matter of fact, I have a note to come back to the question later on; but I will deal with it at once and say that I am not yet in a position to add anything, on the subject of guarantees, to what has already been said by my right hon. Friend the Minister for the Co-ordination of Defence. The position remains exactly the same and it cannot be cleared up until the whole question of minorities in Czechoslovakia has been settled. The House will remember that it was stated that Germany and Italy would be ready to enter into a guarantee on the question of Czechoslovakia when the question of minorities had been settled. Our original offer was to enter into an international guarantee, but what the terms of that guarantee will be and who will be the partakers in that guarantee is not a question on which I can give the House any further information to-day. Of course, before anything were settled, the terms of such a guarantee and the names of those who are taking part in it would be brought before this House.\n\nMr. Wedgwood Benn: In dealing with the frontiers the right hon. Gentleman has not dealt with the Hungarian frontier. Many people are asking why we are to guarantee a frontier vis-a-vis Hungary in the determination of which we and the French are excluded.\n\nThe Prime Minister: In speaking of a guaranteed frontier the right hon. Gentleman is mistaken. We never guaranteed the frontiers as they existed. What we did was to guarantee against unprovoked aggression quite a different thing. That did not mean that we gave our seal to the existence of frontiers as they were then or at any other time. Our guarantee was against unprovoked aggression and not the crystallisation of frontiers. The right hon. Gentleman alternates between violent indignation and insuppressible amusement, but I do not think that my answer could give rise to either of those expressions.\n\nI was dealing with the economic consequences of Dr. Funk's activities. Again, I am sorry that the right hon. Gentleman thought it necessary to suggest that the activities of Dr. Funk, who is the Minister concerned with economic questions, should be concealing some political motive. It is this attitude of constant suspicion-- nothing can be done by anybody but what somebody or other finds concealed in it something sinister or evil which is very largely the cause of the want of confidence existing in Europe to-day. What, taking an economic view, is the position of Germany in relation to the States of Central and South-Eastern Europe? Geographically, she must occupy a dominating position there. She does now. As a matter of fact, in so far as those States are agricultural in character, the nature of the trade between them and Germany is complementary. They can supply Germany with raw materials and foodstuffs in return for articles of manufacture which Germany is so well fitted to supply, but I do not see any reason why we should expect that a fundamental change is likely to take place in those regions.\n\nSo far as Czechoslovakia is concerned, the industries in the ceded regions were industries mainly exporting in character, and they suffered a good deal in competition from Germany. It is quite true that she has ceded also valuable supplies of raw materials, such as coal, lignite and timber, but so long as she is able to import those raw materials there is no reason, so far as I can see, why her industrial position should be worsened.\n\nExchanges of goods over the frontier between Germany and Czechoslovakia are likely to be mutually beneficial. I do not imagine that there will be difficulty put in the way of importing raw materials.\n\nMr. E. J. Williams: Will it not affect the coal trade in this country?\n\nThe Prime Minister: I am talking of the industrial position of Czechoslovakia. So far as this country is concerned, we have no wish to block Germany out from those countries or to encircle her economically. It is true that we have certain trade interests there ourselves, and of course, we mean to maintain those trade interests; and indeed, in that respect, we shall have the good will of the countries themselves. Although, as I have said, their natural market is to be found chiefly in Germany, nevertheless, they can, as a rule, only obtain payment from Germany either in the form of goods --a barter arrangement or in the form of block marks. That does not suit them. They want free currency so that they may import other materials and things which they cannot get in Germany. Therefore, they do desire at least a certain proportion of their trade to be done with other countries, and for that reason we shall have their assistance and good will in our efforts to maintain our trade.\n\nDo not let us suppose that there necessarily must be economic warfare between Germany and ourselves. There must be some competition. Competition is a thing that we thrived on in the past. It is not in our interest to see any part of the world remain poor. If by means of international trade between Germany and these countries the economic position of these countries is improved, you may be quite certain that we shall get our share of the trade. They may not buy exactly the same things from us as they buy from Germany, but they will buy from us those articles which we are most fitted to supply. I finish what I have to say on this subject by the general observation that, in my view, there is room both for Germany and for us in trade with those countries and that neither of us ought to try to obtain exclusive possession of their markets.\n\nWith regard to the other minorities, the right hon. Gentleman appeared to indicate that it was very wrong that any further encroachment should be made upon the territory of Czechoslovakia. Surely that is not a position that we can take up.\n\nWhat we are doing now, as was pointed out by my Noble Friend the Foreign Secretary, is witnessing the re-adjustment of frontiers laid down in the Treaty of Versailles. I do not know whether the people who were responsible for those frontiers thought they would remain permanently as they were laid down. I doubt very much whether they did. They probably expected that from time to time the frontiers would have to be adjusted. It is impossible to conceive that those people would be such supermen as to be able to see what would be the right frontiers for all time. The question is not whether those frontiers should be readjusted from time to time but whether they should be readjusted by negotiation and discussion, or be readjusted by war. Readjustment is going on and, in the case of the Hungarian frontier, arbitration by Germany and Italy has been accepted by Czechoslovakia and Hungary for the final determination of the frontier between them. I think I have said enough about Czechoslovakia.\n\nI do not propose to talk about Spain, following the example of the right hon. Gentleman. As to China, I can only say that there again the right hon. Gentleman appears to me to be taking an unnecessarily gloomy view of the future. He spoke of China as one of the largest potential markets in the world. Potential what does that mean?: China cannot be developed into a real market without the influx of a great deal of capital, and the fact that so much capital is being destroyed during this war means that even more capital will have to be put into China in the future, when the war is over. Who is going to supply the capital? It is quite certain that it cannot be supplied by Japan. Therefore, when the right hon. Gentleman appears to contemplate a future in which Japan will have the monopoly of Chinese trade, and we shall be excluded from it altogether, I say that that is flying in the face of the facts. It is quite certain that, when the war is over and the reconstruction of China begins, she cannot possibly be reconstructed without some help from this country. [Interruption.] That is a matter for those who are asked to invest their money to consider at the time.\n\nPage 30  \nPage 31\n\nI want to turn to another aspect of the consequences that flow, I will not say from the Munich Agreement, but from the events which led up to it. The House will remember that when I spoke last, on 6th October, I told hon. Members that I was proposing to make a thorough and complete review of our civil and military defences, in order to see what errors and deficiencies might have been revealed and to take the necessary steps to make them good. On the civil side that review has been made, and, of course, it has shown what, indeed, was well known before, that our preparations were far from complete. All the same, I am of opinion that, if they had been put to the test, they would have been shown to have worked a great deal better than many people seem to suppose from the accounts of the deficiencies which were in fact shown up. This country, sometimes, is rather slow to get to work, but, when it does get to work, it works in double quick time; and the amount of work which was actually carried out, and efficiently carried out, during the crisis, is, I think, an indication that these air-raid precautions would not have been the complete and utter failure which some seem to think they would have been. I need not go further into that matter now, since it is to be the subject of a Vote of Censure, I understand, in a couple of days' time. What seems to me to be of much more interest to the general public than the question as to what blame should be attributed and where, is what is going to be done now, in order that there may be no cause for blame in the future. We had our warning; we had some sort of rehearsal; and we are in a position now to get a better picture of the whole situation than we were before. I think the House will probably like me to give them some short account of the measures by which we are proposing to deal with air-raid precautions in the future.\n\nWe have come to the conclusion that the whole subject of air-raid precautions has assumed such gigantic proportions, and has developed such complexity, that the burden is really too great to be imposed upon the Home Office in addition to its ordinary duties. We want a separate Minister with special administrative and organising experience, who could devote his whole attention to this subject. Accordingly, I invited my right hon. Friend the Member for the Scottish Universities (Sir J. Anderson) to undertake this task, and, as the House will be aware, his appointment as Lord Privy Seal has been approved by His Majesty the King. He will hold the office of Lord Privy Seal, but the duties of that office are not very onerous, and, in fact, this Minister will be the Minister of Civilian Defence. In that capacity he will have direct charge of air-raid precautions, and he will also be responsible, in consultation with the Departments concerned, for determining arrangements for national voluntary service.\n\nWith reference to air-raid precautions, hon. Members will appreciate that a large number of Departments are concerned in this work, and that they must be responsible in an emergency for functions which have to be exercised through their existing organisation. We have the Home Office, dealing with, perhaps, the major part of the work, especially police work, as well as fire brigades, gas-masks and so forth. Then we have the Ministry of Health, which is in close touch with local authorities, and is also responsible for the medical services, including nursing and ambulance provision. Then there is the Board of Trade, which must be responsible for the storage and distribution of food, and, of course, for the distribution of shipping and the decision as to where shipping is to be embarked and disembarked. There is the Board of Education, which must marshal the children in case of evacuation; there is the Ministry of Transport, which has to provide that railways or other forms of transport shall be available to carry out evacuation; there is the Post Office, which is responsible for communications and for the repair of such things as telephone or telegraph services in case of damage; and finally, of course, there is the Ministry of Labour, which has to see that labour is available for all the services as it is wanted. These services in Scotland are, of course, under the Secretary of State for Scotland. The House will see, therefore, that, in addition to the Home Office and the Scottish Office, all these other Departments have to play their part, and it is necessary that their activities should be co-ordinated, so that each of them may know beforehand exactly what is going to be expected of it in an emergency. For that purpose we shall set up committees of the Ministers of these various Departments and also of...",

        "content_text": "## PERSONNEL\n\nOne of Col. Fehily's urgent needs is additional technical staff. The Civil Establishment in normal times is given on page 24 of Wellington Review and compared with that he is short in many respects. He is comparatively well off in regard to locally recruited staff and the position is improving daily; it is in respect of United Kingdom recruited staff that he is specially deficient. His most urgent need is for trained Health Officers. The peacetime establishment was eleven and he had asked for five in the Civil Affairs set-up. At the present moment he has no Health Officers. This creates a situation full of risk. By far the most important medical problem in Hong Kong is that of health control. With unlimited immigration permitted as a matter of higher policy there is always in Hong Kong the menace of disease being imported. There is no quarantine camp or Port Health Service to deal with persons arriving by sea or by air, neither are coolies entering the Colony by the land frontiers from the mainland, or by ferry or small craft, subject to any examination or control. Overcrowding in urban areas, especially in Victoria, is already occurring and conditions there are as bad as those to be found anywhere in the Colonies. In addition, the population is suffering from the effects of four years of rigorous occupation and only now are people beginning to recover normal health and build up resistance to disease. Moreover, sanitary control and supervision under existing conditions is difficult. The necessary staff is not available and buildings are dilapidated, while the control of nightsoil disposal is precarious. Drainage systems are out of repair and there is a great shortage of latrine buckets. All these factors make it a matter of urgency to have adequate skilled supervisory staff to re-establish more normal conditions at the earliest possible moment.\n\nColonel Fehily places as No. two essential the engagement of a Veterinary Officer. Transmissible disease from animal sources is always potentially present in a hot climate and there are no means of training local candidates as Veterinary Officers, although Sanitary Inspectors receive the usual, but very limited, training in the inspection of meat and other foods. At the moment, one private practitioner is employed part-time as Veterinary Officer but he is an ex-internee and leaves the Colony very shortly.\n\nThe United Kingdom recruited Sanitary Inspectors are also badly wanted. The position at present is that there are two Chief Sanitary Inspectors who have been re-employed, with two acting Senior Inspectors belonging to the peacetime establishment. Under the Civil Affairs Administration scheme, Colonel Fehily asked for four Senior Sanitary Inspectors in addition to the above staff, none of whom has turned up. He has emphasized the urgent need for this staff, especially having in view obligations under the International Sanitary Conventions. He has, however, received nine British other ranks as Sanitary Inspectors and they will help to relieve the situation. These men have not the qualifications required for civil Sanitary Inspectors. Colonel Fehily also requested the services of an additional four ordinary grade Sanitary Inspectors, three of whom should have qualification in meat and food inspection. None of these has yet arrived.\n\nColonel Fehily is handicapped greatly through lack of qualified clerical assistance. In the Civil Affairs establishment for the military period there were included posts for two Staff Captains, one of them to be personal secretary to the D.D.M.S. and the other to keep him right on the military aspects of his work; neither of these officers has been made available. At the moment all he has, apart from ordinary clerks, whose capacity is limited owing to the privations they have gone through, is the assistance of a Chief Clerk who has been taken back after retirement and is past his best. As a matter of longer term policy, Colonel Fehily requires the assistance of one secretary with two assistant secretaries, one with statistical experience, the former and one of the latter to be recruited from the United Kingdom.\n\nThere is also an urgent need for an additional qualified Pharmaceutical Chemist; one has arrived but he needs assistance.\n\nThe staff of Nursing Sisters under the Civil Administration was limited to five when I first came to Hong Kong but since then about sixty Queen Alexandria sisters have arrived. Colonel Fehily keeps his principal matron at headquarters and she acts as superintendent of the nursing establishment as a whole.\n\nPage 20  \nPage 21",

If not, what arrangement would you propose to ensure that vacancies in such posts are in fact referred to me in such a way that local resentment would not be caused if and when I select a candidate from elsewhere, even when a competent local candidate has been recommended to the Commission?\n\nPage 30  \nPage 31",
