It is in fact rather a system of payment by piece-work than a contract. As the nature of the work varies constantly (rock being met with in the top heading when there was none in the bottom heading and so on) and as these persons, whether European or Chinese, who accept this piece-work system are working men with no capital, not only is frequent (weekly) payment necessary in order that they may pay their men, but if any unexpected obstacle is met with, the terms must be relaxed for the 'Contractor' could not afford the loss.\n\nThe Chief Resident Engineer therefore demanded a freer hand in making these piece-work bargains (misnamed \"Contracts\") and complained that the system of audit was such as to tie his hands and over-burden him with book work. He desired to be able to give bonuses for accelerated progress, to relax conditions and increase payment if necessary without reference.\n\nHe urged that Audit rules applicable to works from Revenue were not applicable to works from Capital Account and that in India wholly different rules were made in the one case from those which governed the other.\n\nThe Hon. Director of Public Works suggested that the Chief Resident Engineer should name the sum agreed upon for the piece-work and that if he desired any increase of the payment, a recommendation to that effect approved by the Governor would suffice for the Auditor's requirements.\n\nI agreed that any means by which unnecessary clerical work could be reduced was highly desirable, especially for instance that the signature (over a certificate) of a responsible officer at the foot of a pay roll of labourers was sufficient instead of requiring the mark of each illiterate.\n\nI look indeed on the latter system as an inducement to, instead of a check on, a fraudulent person. It was agreed to refer this point to the Hon. Treasurer and the Local Auditor for report as to what means might be adopted to meet Mr. Ives's requirements and reduce accounting work. They will be good enough to consult with him.\n\nOn the more general question",

A negative answer is to be found in the fact that repeated deadlocks occur, as I have reported from time to time.\n\n3.\n\nYour use of the expression \"thoroughly competent Puisne Judge\" induces me to make the following remarks, and to make this letter \"confidential\". Mr. Justice Gompertz is as thoroughly competent a man as could be found for Summary Jurisdiction; he is a born lawyer, and I look to see him in the future Chief Justice. Mr. Hazeland has not his experience or knowledge; but he has a fund of legal knowledge which has surprised me; he is doing his work admirably, and I am including some of his judgments in the Law Reports.\n\nThe Summary Jurisdiction work has altered considerably during the last two years; important cases are often tried which take two or even more days to hear. I attribute this to the advent of new members of the junior bar; Counsel are being employed in the Summary Court more frequently than was formerly the case.\n\n4.\n\n5.\n\nWith regard to the last paragraph of your letter, I am sorry to see that you still seem to think the proposed new Appeal Court a possible solution of the difficulty of the situation which has existed since I have known the Courts of the Colony. It is hopelessly and utterly impracticable.\n\nQuite apart from other reasons which I have explained, I must draw your attention to what has occurred quite recently. There have been two cases at least of the utmost importance which had to be taken before the Full Court - one of them the bank sluzent case, in which there was an old decision of the Full Court which had to be set aside. It was necessary that they should be dealt with properly, but promptness in hearing is the one thing which would be impossible under the proposed scheme.\n\n6.\n\nI should be obliged if you would forward a copy of this letter to the Secretary of State in order to complete this additional correspondence on the subject.",

On the 30th of June last when I was preparing myself for the Registrar to check my work in the afternoon of that day I sorted out all the Misc. papers to be filed and amongst them were acknowledgments and receipts from India in the following cases:-\n\nAmir Khan, deceased.\n\nMohamed Ji, deceased.\n\nWedawa Singa, deceased\n\nand another matter the name of which I cannot remember and the two receipts issued by Mohamed Ackber on the 1th of April, 1913, in re Gahnaya Singh, deceased. I do not remember if they were initialled by Mohamed Ackber or not. I found the files in re Amir Khan, deceased, and Mohamed Ji, deceased, and filed the acknowledgments and receipts concerning these two matters. I took Mohamed Ackber round and showed him the several cupboards where all probate files were kept and told him where to look for the files in re Wadawa Singh, deceased, the other matter that I do not remember, and Gahnaya Singh, deceased. I told him that I could not find the files in these matters to file these papers I showed them to him\n\nand told him how to get the papers filed when he would find the files. I put back in his presence the papers in these three matters in the pigeon-hole marked \"Misc. Papers to be filed\". He said \"All right, I will do it\". The Honourable the Colonial Secretary remarked in the course of the Cross-Examination of Mohamed Ackber by me whether one man would commit felony to put another man in trouble. I submit \"where there is a will there is a way\". People generally commit crimes by doing harm to others. If I had not been stopped from cross-examining Khawas Kian on the question of enmity I could have shown that that man not only would conspire with others to ruin me but if he could get a\n\nchance of sucking my blood he would do it at the risk of his life.\n\nHe had the courage to say when I asked him that he had no enmity with me.

But it is a delicate matter to interrupt an advocate of great experience who has taken weeks to work up his case and is doing his best to present difficult points clearly and distinctly. I have never heard a judge break in on such a speech either here or at home; it would clearly be a vexatious practice.\n\nAgain it is very difficult when responsible Counsel are engaged and fraud is in question to cut short cross-examination. I do not think any judge would in fact do it. Counsel knows what his case is, and the Court does not. Very often an able cross-examiner will lead gradually up to a point he wishes to make by imperceptible degrees. This is the more necessary when as in this case the persons charged with fraud are educated men fully alive to the cross-examiner's purpose.\n\nThe cross-examination might have been materially shortened if Fr. Nolan had interpreted from the beginning. But he has always been attached to the Chief Justice's Court and he is needed there for Sessions: and it is troublesome to change interpreters when there are many references to documents, I began with Mr. Mackie who usually does my work. When he went on leave I continued with one or other of the Chinese interpreters. Since Mr. Jenkin's return I have had Mr. Nolan by special arrangement and the speeding up has been most gratifying.\n\nAfter Mr. Sharp retired from the case it became apparent that Mr. Jenkin would not be able to stand the strain alone. He showed clear signs of being overworked; and with all his promise he has still something to learn about framing questions to a Chinese witness, especially when the interpretation is weak.\n\nUndoubtedly had he been in better health or had more experience in this class of work he could, and would, have shortened his cross-examination considerably. But when an able man suffering from overwork and over-anxiety is doing his best, single-handed in a heavy case it is an insidious matter to pull",

        "content_text": "# HONGKONG LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL\n\n## The Rents Ordinance\n\n3. The committee, in the short time at their disposal, have been unable to formulate any scheme to carry out this suggestion. The question of the percentage to be added in order to compensate for the fall in the value of money is a difficult one. It is complicated by the fact that in all probability the proper percentage would vary according to the locality in which the house was situated and it might be necessary to divide the Colony into a considerable number of districts in which varying percentages might be added. The boundaries of these districts might be difficult to ascertain and to define.\n\n**THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL** moved the first reading of a Bill intituled, **An Ordinance to amend the law relating to the recovery of possession in certain cases and to restrict the rents of certain domestic tenements**.\n\nHe said: I am sorry that the notice given of this Bill has been so short. In spite of strenuous efforts on the part of the printers, the Bill in its complete form with the \"Object and Reasons\" has only just been completed and placed in the hands of honourable members within the last few minutes. The urgency of the occasion is the explanation of the short notice, and, I think, its justification. As the \"Objects and Reasons\" attached to the Bill are unusually full and as they have only just been placed in the hands of honourable members, unless the Council is prepared to take them as read, I propose, with your permission, to read them and say very little else in introducing the Bill.\n\nThe Council signified its wish that the Attorney-General should read the \"Objects and Reasons,\" which he did as follows, making a few interpolations which are printed in parenthesis:\n\n### OBJECTS AND REASONS\n\n1. This Bill is the outcome of the appointment by H.E. the Governor of a committee of the Legislative Council to consider and advise what steps should be taken to protect the tenants of domestic tenements from unreasonable increases in rental and from arbitrary termination of their tenancies. The committee was appointed on the 23rd June.\n\n2. In appointing the committee, H.E. the Governor suggested that a possible way of dealing with unreasonable increases in rental would be to add to the rents payable in 1914 and 1915 such a percentage as would compensate for the fall in value of money during the last six or seven years, and to provide that no rent higher than the maximum rent so ascertained should be recoverable after the 30th June of this year, unless such higher rent should have been authorised by some body appointed for this purpose. For instance, it is possible that a district may have been in an early stage of development in 1914, and that the owners of houses in that district were prepared to let their property at low rentals in order to attract tenants to the locality, hoping to recover their losses later when the extension of the town, or the increased popularity of the district, should have attracted a large population. (Certain instances of that were in the minds of the committee). In a case like this, it would seem hardly fair to allow only the same percentage of increases as would be allowed in an old established district. The difficulty does not end here, because it is possible that some recent houses in the same locality may have been let from the beginning at a rental perfectly fair to the owners, and it would be unreasonable to allow such owners the same rate of increase as would be allowed to owners who had at the beginning let their houses at a sacrifice. It may also be pointed out that no assistance in dealing with the proposed return to the basis of the rents payable six or seven years ago, with the addition of a certain percentage, can be obtained from legislation on this subject in the United Kingdom or in the Straits Settlements, as in both these cases the statutes went back for a much shorter period. The original Act in the United Kingdom, which became law on the 23rd December, 1915, went back to the rents in force on the 3rd August, 1914, and the first Ordinance on the subject in the Straits Settlements (which came into force on September 30th, 1917), went back only about a year and nine months.\n\n3. The main object of the present Bill, therefore, is to ensure that tenants now in occupation shall not be dispossessed for the present, so long as they comply with the terms of the tenancies under which they hold. This policy obviously involves taking away from the landlords the right to give their tenants notice to quit.\n\n4. These difficulties are referred to, not for the purpose of showing that the above suggestion is impracticable, but to explain why it has not been possible to adopt it in the present Bill, which has been drafted at such short notice. The committee will proceed to consider the suggestion, and they will be glad to receive through the Chairman (the Attorney-General) any practical legislative proposals as to how this suggestion can be carried out. The importance of passing some legislation immediately is in order to prevent existing tenants from being turned out at the end of the current half year. (That sentence was written at a time when it was thought that the Bill would be passed through all its stages at this meeting of the Council).\n\n### Key Provisions\n\n| Provision | Description |\n| --- | --- |\n| Applies to | Private domestic tenements, every bed space, cubicle, room, portion of a floor, floor, or building, which is the subject of a separate letting, and used for human habitation. It applies to a shop if the master or his employees live on the premises. |\n| Exceptions | New Territories (except New Kowloon), entirely new buildings which get their occupation certificate after the commencement of the Ordinance. |\n| Effect | Tenants now in occupation will practically have their tenancies extended, on the old tenancy terms, so long as they pay the standard rent, and if they are turned out, it will be due either to their own fault or to their failure or inability to pay the standard rent. |\n\n6. It also seems desirable to provide expressly against increases of rent during the currency of the Ordinance. In view of the fact that in many cases rents appear to have been raised excessively since the end of last year, in some cases possibly on account of the anticipated raising of the rates, it seems advisable to go back to the 31st December, 1920, for the purpose of ascertaining what is the standard rent under the Ordinance. There is one exception to this statement, when the landlord requires the premises for his own occupation (see clause 4(1)(e)), but even in that case, the tenant will not be turned out unless the court is satisfied that alternative accommodation, reasonably equivalent as regards rent and suitability in all respects, is available.\n\n7. The Bill applies only to private domestic tenements, and it does not apply to offices, godowns, hotels, or boarding houses. It does not apply to the New Territories, except New Kowloon. It does not apply to an entirely new building which gets its occupation certificate after the commencement of the Ordinance, and any such building will be completely free from the restrictions of the Ordinance.\n\n8. It is hoped that the effect of the Ordinance will be to encourage the erection of new domestic buildings. In the first place, such new buildings will be entirely free from the restrictions of the Ordinance, and the owners will be entitled to charge whatever rents they can obtain. In the second place, as tenants cannot be turned out so long as they pay the standard rent, well-to-do immigrants who wish to acquire a residence in Hong Kong will have to build for themselves.\n\n9. Tenants now in occupation will practically have their tenancies extended, on the old tenancy terms, so long as they pay the standard rent, and if they are turned out, it will be due either to their own fault or to their failure or inability to pay the standard rent. Speaking broadly, if the Bill becomes law, no tenant now in actual occupation will be obliged to pay any rent higher than that which was payable in respect of his tenement on the 31st December, 1920. Provision is made in clause 2(f) for the cases of domestic tenements which were not let on 31st December, 1920. (On that, I would like to say that revision of rents involved is not a very revolutionary one, and, speaking generally, I think that no one would say that rents were low at the end of last year).\n\n10.

You will recollect that students were registered with the General Medical Council on passing the first examinations on Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, and that subsequently, on graduation, these students were eligible to be included in the Medical Register. This latter is a point of major importance to most of the medical graduates of Hong Kong University, as the majority of them enter practice in British regions such as Hong Kong, Malaya, British North Borneo, etc.\n\nWhen the war broke out in Hong Kong, final examinations were in progress, and it was unanimously decided by the Senate at an Emergency Meeting on December 31st, 1941, for which the requisite quorum was present, to confer war-time degrees in Medicine on those students whose examinations had been interrupted by the outbreak of war. These names included:\n\nHilda Chan (Miss)\n\nChan Ping Kwok\n\nChow Cham Lau\n\nLau Po Hei\n\nLee Ching Iu\n\nLeong Yean Seng\n\nLing Sing Hang\n\nOng Hian Pitt\n\nE.N.

Orloff was barbarically murdered by the Japanese when he was carrying out his duties on the day the Japanese first landed on the island of Hong Kong, and it was felt that a posthumous degree should be awarded to him).\n\nAt a later meeting of the Senate, which took place shortly before the internment of the majority of the University Staff, it was further decided to award war-time degrees to the following 13 members of the final year class who would normally have expected to graduate in June 1942:\n\nThe Secretary,\n\nCheung Ah Chee\n\nKung Kwok King\n\nLee Sui Luen\n\nHans Raj\n\nYeoh Seow Tiung\n\nDavid Yue Pui Lum\n\nPhyllis Woo Poh Yee (Miss)\n\nLatifa Gnows (Miss)\n\nKwan Kui Lun\n\nLeow Oy Chean\n\nTo Shiu Yuen\n\nYip Tai Hing\n\nWong Sau Haan (Miss)\n\nGeneral Medical Council,\n\nHallam Street,\n\nLondon, W.\n\nSpecial",

        "content_text": "SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST, THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1950.\n\nMONGKONG UNIVERSITY CONGREGATION\n\n(Continued from Page 3)\n\nWhatever idea in this very place, in the Colony of Hongkong.\" freedom to the less remember your University is always here to help you in your problems; use her as much in your post-graduate life as you did before.\n\nSome of you are destined to become leaders of your fellow men, others followers. In your lives we do not expect you to accept slavishly and blindly what you were taught here, but having been taught to think, to discern, to discriminate, and to reason, we are confident that you are equipped to choose your own way of life. May you live wisely, remembering always our creed, what of many other equally heroic restoration of the playing field ever our standard of learning, exploits performed in China; surely in this year of grace 1950, lads who fearlessly penetrated occupied Hongkong: who lived for months in the hills over-looking Kowloon, where one magnificent gift of $35,000 towards the pavilion by Mr and Mrs Leung Yew. By September next, 80 of our 180 women graduates will be able to live in the new hostel built through the generous gift of one million dollars by Sir Robert Ho Tung.\n\nHe then went on to tell the audience, which crowded this Great Hall, how he got the idea. He said that during his studies, while at the College of Medicine in Hongkong, more than 30 years previously, after his school work and lectures, after his book reading, he used to stroll the streets of Hongkong, it being known to only very few people. About the middle of 1942 we were visited by an officer of the R.A.F, who was planning a secret mission to the Netherland Indies and Malaya. At this stage of the war such missions had hitherto never been attempted in the Far East; they were in every sense of the word penetrating and hazardous unknown. One of the reasons for the visit of this officer was to recruit a dependable companion. He chose Lau Teng-kee, one of our undergraduates.\n\nAttainments\n\nNow what of our attainments in the training of good citizens? In practically every profession, in practically every walk of life, that humility is the essence of wisdom.\n\nLau knew full well the measure of paper which was a scarce and valuable commodity not couched in a completed form. It is therefore fitting that the new School of Engineering and Architecture building, that I shall be opening later this afternoon, should be named after him: thus his memory perpetuated.\n\nAlthough Dr Sloss' departure was a loss, we were very fortunate in securing the services of Dr Ride as his successor. Apart from his capabilities and personality, is the fact that he has been with the University for more than twenty years, and so knows all our aspirations.\n\nIt is very pleasing to have with us to-day, the Chancellor of the University of Malaya, the Right Hon. Malcolm MacDonald. I warmly welcome him. The University of Malaya was inaugurated on October 8, 1949, on which occasion I had the pleasure of sending a message of greeting to the Chancellor.\n\n\"I also express with the united hopes of the Hongkong University, which is the university of this British Colony that is mainly supported by the Colony, but the services it renders far beyond our small confines. It is uniquely situated at the door of China and thus it brings to the people of China the best that British and western culture can offer. Our doors are open to entrants from China, as well as from Hongkong and Malaya. We offer them our facilities freely and we ask for nothing in return. This is in accordance with the vision of our predecessors. If we succeed in carrying out our aim, we will have done something to foster a mutual appreciation between the inheritors of two of the world's most important cultures. (Applause).\n\nThere are two reasons why the University has made good progress. First and foremost, I would put the inspiring leadership given by the last Vice-Chancellor, Dr Sloss. Time and again he wanted to retire but at my urgent request he carried on.\n\nThe second reason, why such good progress has been made, is that the University has many friends not only amongst the alumni, but also amongst the citizenry of Hongkong. Most public life in this Colony, you will find our graduates playing an ever increasingly responsible and honoured part.\n\nIn closing, I feel I cannot do better than quote the message of another Vice-Chancellor, Sir John Medley, at the University of Melbourne in 1940.\n\n... my wishes which are the University's wishes to you are particularly important, with the University's wishes to you are in the customary very welcome increase mere fifty miles, He thought of liberally to found and maintain the beautiful streets, the artistic parks and wondered why and faith is more than justified incredible difficulty of landing was stolen from its hiding place success and prosperity in all your There are two reasons why the University made good progress.\n\nWhat Better Proof? What better proof could one desire than this of the statement I made a few minutes ago that a University is something more than a mere teaching institution. It was not what he was taught here that made Dr Sun Yat-sen \"give up his profession of curing men and spend his time curing his country\": but it was the effect on him of the life he shared with others, his teachers and his fellow students, in a British institution of learning in a British Colony.\n\nAs Father Ryan said in his talk before the Rotary Club last November, the youth of our educational institutions is \"the most important export of our Colony.\"\n\n(2) There must be 101s Chinese who are shareholders of the company. I could easily find out what percentage of them are Chinese by looking at the shareholders' returns in their file with the Registrar or availing myself of section 98 (1) of the Companies Ordinance of 1932. But I don't care to take the trouble at the present. Since the Chinese are the main sufferers, they should make their voice heard at the shareholders' meeting.\n\nM. H. TANG.\n\nView of the dais during the conferring of degrees at Hongkong University yesterday when the first official Congregation since the war was held. — (Staff Photographer).\n\nGovernor's Speech\n\nAfter the conferment of degrees, His Excellency the Chancellor, before declaring the Congregation closed, addressed the gathering.\n\nThe Recipients\n\nThe recipients of degrees were:\n\nMaster of Surgery - Kwan Su-yee\n\nBachelor of Science in Engineering - D B Izalt in absentia (posthumously)\n\nBachelor of Arts - Algernon Ho\n\nBachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery - Kwan Kui-lun, Yip Tai-hing, Yue Pui-lam.

E. the Governor said: What a period of tragedy the world has gone through since the last Congregation nine years ago. Although I say this in no sense of self-pity, we in Hongkong were certainly one of the major sufferers. Even to-day in this hall we can see the ruin and devastation of war.\n\nThe University had to be abandoned physically in 1941, its spirit carried on and the light of learning was not extinguished. This was only made possible by the kindness of our friends in China, who took in some of our students, and thus enabled them to continue with their studies.\n\nThe progress at first seemed slow, and as late as 1948, that is only two years ago, I said in an address to the Court that the University was then in the position that it was in 1916.\n\nPerhaps I was unduly pessimistic, for in fact the progress that has been made is quite remarkable. As an instance of this might quote the figures of the number of students. In 1941 there were 572; in 1948 507; in 1949, 620. This number for 1949 represents the complete faculties and Medicine, but still lacks two years of medical students.\n\nOur Medical Faculty this and next year, our undergraduate strength will be at least 800.\n\nThanks To Government\n\nWe acknowledge with grateful thanks the help of the Hongkong Government. This University is already been filled, and it is proposed that Government department; we have no claim for financial help that have no claim for financial help.\n\nMay I in conclusion now say a few words to those who are the youth of to-day's ceremony, our Graduands. It has always been a matter of wonderment and of not a little amusement, to me, that when our Chancellor declares the Congregation open for the conferring of degrees, the story of the exploits in Malaya of one of our former undergraduates, Lim Bo-seng, loyalty; as long as we maintain your graduation is but the end of one stage in the school; but there is a difference. While here you have had the protection and guidance of your academic mother but now you are equipped to stand alone. Never be victims of such evil to stoop so low but will act Courageously and with courage and resolution.\n\nDAYA KHANRA.\n\nNanette Ho Kam Tim-cheng.
