Price, the service can be reckoned from the 22nd of February 1873, when he began to draw Hungking (half salary), and on that date, under the new Regulation notified in the Gazette of 21st Dec. last, Mr. Price can only claim to count 16 years pensionable service, if from his past service, no deduction is made for leave in excess of one month's residue.\n\nIn the case of the above observation to half pay rule as applied to Mr. Price, who enjoyed long leave after 1886, he can count 13 yrs 7 months as Service, admitting of leave to the extent of 2/3 = 8.04 months, so that only half a month of his 2 months non-Resident service could not be counted in full. And this leaves his pensionable service over 16 years.\n\n4. The method of calculation adopted in the case mentioned last, to process your despatch appears to follow strictly the instructions laid down in par 6 of my no. 397 of 30th Dec. and in my despatch of this day's date, the above provision supersedes the old Pension Rule.\n\n2. The old Pension Community is superseded, and it is made clear that no period during which an officer is drawing salary from the Hong Kong Govt. is able to be counted as pensionable service.\n\nIt is stated in my despatch no. 397 of 30 the Dec. and in my despatch of this day's date that the ILO salary rule is applicable.\n\n6. ...pensionable service will be found to fall short of 16 years.",

Pousaly\" should be corrected to a plausible name like \"Sir H. J. Poulsby\" or another correct name if known.\n   - \"Just. 271-194 Luces. 2°\" is unclear and may require specific knowledge to correct.\n   - \"I have followe & thia\" should be \"I have followed this\".\n   - \"percent 13191\" and \"£ 230.\" and \"400\" seem out of context and may need clarification or correction based on the original document's content.\n   - \"arming jess.

Really, I wonder what the Commissioners were thinking of when they made their Report.

Ex parte statement - we do. 880. 881. I have been in Hunghing for 8 years. Mr. Ranajahn is a clerk in the Customs and Hastings' bill of entry man, and he generally attends to land matters in the Collectorate office. I think that Hastings may have attended me on 3 occasions during three years. And no more. I have been acting as things master during many occasions mentioned. Entirely unofficially. I think the Commissioners must agree that it is an unfair sharing of the burden by parties in the subject of traction. I will only refer to \"Observations in the Evidence,\" see my \"Evidence\" on pages 887-891, 928-931. What evidence is this?",

He assured me that eight-tenths of the cultivated land in this region had formerly been under opium, but that on his recent trip he had not seen a single plant.\n\nFrom Hsiaoyi my road lay southwards to Pingyangfu, crossing the Lingshih pass and traversing the towns of Hochou and Hungtung. The district immediately to the north of the pass is mountainous and dry, and has never been of much importance as regards opium cultivation, but the country between Hochou and Pingyang was second only to the Chiaocheng department in the extent of its poppy fields and the quantity of the drug produced. The Fenho here flows along a broad valley flanked on either side by gently sloping foothills intersected by a number of streams joining the main river at short intervals. The whole region is well irrigated and thoroughly suitable for the growth of the poppy, and in former years quite seven-tenths of the fields were given over to that plant. This year, however, its growth has been put down with extraordinary severity; not only is the cultivation absolutely prohibited, but even stray stalks of self-propagated poppy growing by the side of the fields are not allowed to pass unnoticed. One man at Hungtung was actually beaten because a single plant was found in his wheat-field; and the people complained that during the sowing season the laoyeh (local official) came and grubbed in their land with his own hands to look for poppy seeds. In ground that has formerly been under opium there is naturally a probability that a few stray plants will reappear, though none may have been sown, and the danger of this provides the yamên runners with an excellent opportunity for blackmailing the farmer, of which they are not slow to take advantage.\n\nIn this district, as well as in some others I passed through, there had been attempts to sow opium together with peas, the idea being to root up the peas later and leave the opium, or vice versa, according to whether or not the prohibition might be disregarded. The trick, however, was discovered, both the crops were destroyed and the land was confiscated. Indigo is, to a limited extent, being introduced to take the place of opium. It is a more profitable crop than wheat, and always commands a ready market as a dye for the ordinary blue cloth so much used in China for the making of clothes.\n\nAt Hungtung, I was able to get information covering the west of the province from Fensi to Isichou and down to Puhsien. Here, as elsewhere, the reports were favourable, the officials were showing great activity, and the poppy was a thing of the past.\n\nFrom Pingyangfu to Hotsin, near the Shensi border, was my next stage. Hotsin is truly described by the resident missionary, Mr. Gillies, as the \"back of beyond.\" It is at the very edge of the province; it is not on the road to anywhere; the district is desperately poor; and, moreover, the country has never been noted for the production of opium, the little that was grown having been practically suppressed some four or five years ago by the imposition of a heavy tax in aid of the local schools. It speaks well, therefore, for the thoroughness of Ting Ta-jên's methods that even this remote spot should be visited by deputies from the capital. It is a pity, however, that they have not turned their attention to a large establishment here that is openly doing a thriving business in the preparation of cowhide, hoof parings, and other refuse as an adulterant for opium. I was assured at Hotsin that all the country northwards as far as Hsiangning and Kichou, about 35 miles distant, had been cleared of the plant.\n\nHaving travelled as far west as this, I took the opportunity to make a day's excursion into Shensi, which is only about 10 miles further on. The Yellow River, which forms the boundary between the two provinces, has to be crossed in a ferry-boat at a place called Yu Men Kou, named after the Emperor Yu, who, together with Yao and Shun, formed the legendary trio that were supposed to have ruled in the golden age of China, about 2300 B.C. Amongst his other achievements, he is said to have instituted the ferry service at this particular spot.\n\nOnce across the river there was no lack of poppy cultivation, the fields extending nearly to the water's edge. By this time (11th June) the opium had all been harvested, and the labourers were engaged in cutting off and collecting the capsules for the manufacture of opium oil.\n\nThe duty of enforcing the regulations in the south-west corner of the province has been entrusted to the salt commissioner resident at Yüacheng, a large commercial town not far from Chichchou. This official, of the rank of taotai, has shown great activity in the issue of proclamations, uprooting of poppy fields, and punishment of offenders. He has threatened to fine opium-growers six times the value of their crop, and in one case, at least, has made good his threat; a man who had planted opium in a small patch of ground, about the tenth of a mow, near Icheng, was made to pay 20,000 cash. The taotai's jurisdiction comprises an area of over 4,000 square miles, and I was informed by two members of the China Inland Mission who had recently journeyed through it that it was uniformly free from opium cultivation.\n\nFrom Hotsin I travelled eastward to Kiangchou and Icheng. At the latter place I was shown a letter received from the missionary living at Luaufu, stating that the same stringent measures had been taken in the west of the province as those in force to the east of the Fen Valley, and this statement was corroborated by communications from residents at Lucheng and Licheng. On leaving Icheng, I travelled over the mountains to Tsechoufu in the extreme south-east of Shansi, crossed the border to Chinghua, the terminus of the Peking Syndicate Railway in Honan, and so returned to Peking by rail.\n\nMy journey lasted exactly a month, and covered a distance of over 400 miles, through what were formerly some of the most noted opium-producing districts of the province. I did not, however, from first to last, see a single field in Shansi under poppy cultivation. Where I have been unable to speak from personal observation I have quoted from information kindly supplied by missionaries, as being more reliable than that derived from native sources, although I did not fail to question the Chinese themselves whenever an opportunity occurred, and both missionaries and natives were unanimous in affirming that the suppression of the poppy was complete.\n\nThis report, it will be noticed on reference to the map, only covers the southern half of Shansi, as it was unfortunately impossible to visit the regions to the north of the capital as well in the limited time at my disposal. According to Ting Ta-jên, however, the troops stationed at Kueihuacheng and other districts in the north have received orders to patrol the country, and see that the prohibition is rigidly enforced, and this statement is confirmed by Mr. Larsson, a Swedish missionary living at Tatungfa, who states that, beyond one or two unsuccessful attempts to sow poppy with cabbages, there has been no opium cultivation in the parts visited by himself and his fellow-workers. This is the extent of my information on the north of the province, but I am told that the amount of opium grown there was comparatively unimportant, and, in view of the thoroughness with which the orders of the Taiyuanfu authorities have been carried out in the remotest parts of the south, there is no reason for doubting that the same has been the case throughout.\n\nThe measures taken in Shansi against opium have, as was to be expected, enormously increased the price of the drug, especially in the neighbourhood of the capital, but less so in places near the frontier, on account of the smuggling. An ounce (\"liang\") of the best native article cost formerly about 300 cash. At Taiyuan it now fetches over 1,000 cash (roughly 1 dollar), at Pingyangfu 700 cash, and at Hotsin 600 cash. As two-thirds, or at the very least a half, of the adult population (both male and female) consume a certain amount of opium, they are, of course, very seriously affected by the rise in the cost of the drug. The poorer classes are unable to continue buying the quantity to which they have become accustomed, and so, in order to derive the same effect from a smaller amount, they have taken to drinking instead of smoking it. It would appear that a fifth of the amount consumed in the pipe, if dissolved in water and taken in that way, is sufficient to satisfy the same cravings. A great many, of course, are endeavouring to break off the habit altogether, as is evidenced by the large sale of anti-opium medicines, but it is to be feared that those who buy the ordinary pills sold in the shops obtain but little relief, whilst the few Government refuges, where a proper course of treatment is prescribed, are unsuccessful because the patients are not cared for on the premises, and if left to themselves they have not the force of will to follow out the instructions, which entail a certain amount of suffering in the preliminary stages of the treatment. In the mission refuges, on the other hand, where the patients are not only under constant supervision during the course, but are kept on for about a week after the treatment is over to make certain they are really cured, a considerable amount of good is being done, and the number of people who pass through these institutions is increasing rapidly. At Ichang, for instance, Mr. Trüdinger, the missionary in charge, informed me that their refuge had treated 120 patients during the last six months, as against thirty or forty in previous years. Nearly all of these were of the poorer class, and were being driven to give up the habit by the increasing price of the drug; those who...",

Any slackening of the firm attitude at present maintained by the officials would mean its immediate reintroduction, and many of the natives hope that this will be the case. At all events, the first and most difficult step has been taken successfully, and now that the people have become reconciled to the prohibition, it should be easier to guard against any attempt to grow the plant again.\n\nOpinion in Shansi is divided as to whether the action that has been taken is, as some people aver, the result of a general scheme on the part of the Central Government to deal with the question of cultivation in one or two provinces at a time and that Shansi happens to be one of the first, or whether the sudden activity shown in this part of the Empire has for its sole author the energetic provincial treasurer, Ting Pao-chuan. The former theory would seem to be supported by the fact that in the adjoining province of Shensi, where the poppy is still grown, proclamations are said to have been issued stating that in 1910 the cultivation of opium will be stopped there in the same way as has been done in Shansi, but in either case, it appears to be entirely owing to the energy and zeal of Ting Tajên that the prohibitory measures have been rendered as effectual as they have.\n\nWhen at Taiyuanfu, I was accorded an interview by his Excellency and informed him of the object of my visit to the province. He spoke at considerable length on the subject of opium and appeared to be very much in earnest. He complained of the difficulty of stopping the cultivation in Shansi when, across the border in Shensi and Honan, there were no such restrictions. The import of opium from other provinces was strictly prohibited, but, though he did what he could to prevent smuggling, it was to be feared that a considerable quantity of the drug was brought over in that way. According to him, Indian opium had never been imported into Shansi, and the fact that they only had the native article to deal with greatly facilitated its early suppression. This statement with regard to Indian opium is, I think, correct and agrees with information I received from opium-dealers in other places. He then turned to the question of revenue and stated that the amount formerly derived from the Tungshui tax was 300,000 taels, whilst the extra tax on poppy land brought in another 200,000 taels, but that by increasing the duty on matches, oil, wine, tobacco, furs, and other articles, they had almost made up this deficit of 500,000 taels.\n\nI give these figures for what they are worth, but they can hardly represent the true facts of the case. If the Tungshui tax were 115 taels per picul, this would mean that only some 2,600 piculs had been accounted for. It is probable, however, as Ting himself admitted, that a large proportion of the duties actually levied never reached the Provincial Treasury at all, and that office, in turn, would not acknowledge all that was received. At all events, he distinctly stated that, as regards the financial side of the question, they were not experiencing any great difficulties.\n\nThe Government, he said, were about to establish in the big centres throughout the province ten official stations for the sale of anti-opium medicines and the treatment of patients, and it was proposed to spend 3,000 taels on each. He himself had sent spies all over the country to watch for any attempt at opium cultivation, and rewards were being offered of 10 cash each for every poppy stalk brought in to the officials. It is certainly true that \"weiyuans\" from the capital are being sent on tours of inspection to the remotest districts, and I was frequently told at various places I visited that an official had just been there to examine the fields.\n\nAt Taiyuanfu itself, the dens have all been closed, and the opium shops, of which there are about forty, are under strict police supervision. A system for the registration of smokers has been instituted, and the procedure is as follows: the purchaser, when buying the drug, is asked his name, age, address, and amount of daily consumption, and these details are entered in a book of forms and counterfoils. The form, when filled in, is handed to him, while the counterfoil is retained by the shop for the inspection of the police. Each succeeding time that the purchaser goes to buy opium, he must produce this form, and the amount of his purchase is marked on it, but the amount must never exceed that of the time before. The form lasts for three months, at the end of which period a new one must be taken out, and the amount of daily consumption decreased, the idea being that, in due course, the smoker will be obliged to abandon the habit entirely. Whether this procedure is strictly insisted upon for everybody, I was unable to find out, but I imagine the richer classes buying a large quantity at a time would have no great difficulty in evading it. I examined two or three books of counterfoils and found that it was generally small amounts that were bought.\n\n## Page 240, 241 (Continued from Page 239)\n\nThe capital is the only place in the province, at present, where any attempt is made to regulate the sale of opium. There are no restrictions whatever in other towns, and even in places only a few miles distant from Taiyuan-fu, the registration system is unknown.\n\nOne result of the suppression movement is a thriving trade in anti-opium remedies of all sorts. Advertisements for the sale of pills are to be seen in every street of the capital, and in one shop that I visited, there were no fewer than twelve different kinds of medicines, some of local manufacture, but a great many seemed to be imported from Japan. They contain, as a rule, a large proportion of morphia or inferior opium mixed with boiled cowhide or other deleterious substances, and the people who take them to cure their cravings merely exchange one form of the vice for another. The medicine trade is proving so profitable that the Chinese are manufacturing pills from all sorts of things quite regardless of their curative properties, a favourite native recipe being millet (\"hsiao mi\") boiled in opium and mixed with cayenne pepper (\"là jiao\") and other Chinese condiments, and it is said that these concoctions are far more ruinous to the health than the vice they are taken to cure.\n\nWith regard to the cultivation of the poppy in the neighbourhood of Taiyuan-fu, I learned, on good authority, that the plant was nowhere to be seen in the districts of Shaoyang to the east, Yütze to the south-east, and Hsukou, Taiku, Chihsien, and Pingyao to the south. It has never been grown in any quantity round Shaoyang, as the soil is unsuitable, but the other places to the south lie in the Fenho Plain and are therefore favourably situated for the production of opium. Some of the farmers had sown with poppy in the hopes that the prohibition need not be taken seriously, but had been severely punished for their disobedience, and it may be safely said that none of the drug was harvested in the district in question. I could see for myself that none was grown in the immediate neighbourhood of the capital, though in former years, poppy fields stretching along the banks of the Fen were visible from the city walls.\n\nOn leaving Taiyuan-fu, I proceeded westwards to Fenchou-fu, passing through the districts of Chiaocheng and Wenshui. As has been mentioned above, this region was once famous for its opium. In the spring, the entire countryside as far as the eye could see was covered with poppy fields, and the crop grown in the valleys to the north of Chiaocheng produced the strongest opium in the province. This year, however, no trace of it was to be seen; wheat and barley were grown everywhere, and though I spent some time inspecting the valleys off the main road and looked carefully for the plant in out-of-the-way and hidden spots, it was without success. In the neighbourhood of Wenshui, there had been one or two attempts to disregard the regulations, but they were speedily discovered and punished; in one instance, I was informed, the offender had been beaten 100 blows and wore the cangue for a month. Deputies from the capital, it was said, were continually visiting the district and inspecting the fields. They avoided the local yamêns and stayed at the inns, like ordinary travellers, and it was only if he had offended that the unfortunate farmer discovered that he was dealing with an official.\n\nAt Fenchou-fu, and at Hsiaoyi, a day's journey further south, I met two missionaries, who, independently of each other, had recently made a tour of the region to the west of those cities, and they remarked on the complete eradication of the poppy. One of these gentlemen had travelled through Wucheng to Yungningchou, and then northwards for about 60 miles to a place called Huma, along the Peichuan River, and had then returned to Hsiaoyi viâ Ninghsiang, the whole journey covering a distance of about 150 miles. The places mentioned are stations within the care of his particular branch of the mission and are well known to him. He assured me that eight-tenths of the cultivated land in this region had formerly been under opium, but that on his recent trip, he had not seen a single plant.\n\nFrom Hsiaoyi, my road lay southwards to Pingyang-fu, crossing the Lingshih Pass, and traversing the towns of Hochou and Hungtung. The district immediately to the north of the pass is mountainous and dry and has never been of much importance as regards opium cultivation; but the country between Hochou and Pingyang was second only to the Chiaocheng department in the extent of its poppy fields and the quantity of the drug produced. The Fenho here flows along a broad valley, flanked on either side by gently sloping foot-hills intersected by a number of streams joining the main river at short intervals. The whole region is well irrigated and thoroughly suitable for the growth of the poppy, and in former years, quite seven-tenths of the fields were given over to that plant. This year, however, its growth has... \n\n## Page 241 \n\n...been completely stopped. \n\n[2494 p-1]",

One man at Hungtung was actually beaten because a single plant was found in his wheat-field, and the people complained that during the sowing season the laoyeh (local official) came and grubbed in their land with his own hands to look for poppy seeds. In ground that has formerly been under opium there is naturally a probability that a few stray plants will reappear, though none may have been sown, and the danger of this provides the yamên runners with an excellent opportunity for blackmailing the farmer, of which they are not slow to take advantage.\n\nIn this district as well as in some others I passed through, there had been attempts to sow opium together with peas, the idea being to root up the peas later and leave the opium, or vice versa, according to whether or not the prohibition might be disregarded. The trick, however, was discovered, both the crops were destroyed, and the land was confiscated. Indigo is to a limited extent being introduced to take the place of opium. It is a more profitable crop than wheat and always commands a ready market as a dye for the ordinary blue cloth so much used in China for making clothes.\n\nAt Hungtung, I was able to get information covering the west of the province from Fenhsi to Hsichou and down to Puhsien. Here, as elsewhere, the reports were favourable, the officials were showing great activity, and the poppy was a thing of the past.\n\nFrom Pingyang-fu to Hotsin, near the Shensi border, was my next stage. Hotsin is truly described by the resident missionary, Mr. Gillies, as the \"back of beyond.\" It is at the very edge of the province; it is not on the road to anywhere; the district is desperately poor, and, moreover, the country has never been noted for the production of opium, the little that was grown having been practically suppressed some four or five years ago by the imposition of a heavy tax in aid of the local schools. It speaks well, therefore, for the thoroughness of Ting Tajên's methods that even this remote spot should be visited by deputies from the capital. It is a pity, however, that they have not turned their attention to a large establishment here that is openly doing a thriving business in the preparation of cowhide, hoof parings, and other refuse as an adulterant for opium. I was assured at Hotsin that all the country northwards as far as Hsiangning and Kichou, about 35 miles distant, had been cleared of the plant.\n\nHaving travelled as far west as this, I took the opportunity to make a day's excursion into Shensi, which is only about 10 miles further on. The Yellow River, which forms the boundary between the two provinces, has to be crossed in a ferry-boat at a place called Yn Men Kou, named after the Emperor Yu, who, together with Yao and Shun, formed the legendary trio that were supposed to have ruled in the golden age of China, about 2300 B.C. Amongst his other achievements, he is said to have instituted the ferry service at this particular spot.\n\nOnce across the river, there was no lack of poppy cultivation, the fields extending nearly to the water's edge. By this time (11th June), the opium had all been harvested, and the labourers were engaged in cutting off and collecting the capsules for the manufacture of opium oil.\n\nThe duty of enforcing the regulations in the south-west corner of the province has been entrusted to the salt commissioner resident at Yücheng, a large commercial town not far from Chiehehou. This official, of the rank of taotai, has shown great activity in the issue of proclamations, uprooting of poppy fields, and punishment of offenders. He has threatened to fine opium growers six times the value of their crop, and in one case at least has made good his threat; a man who had planted opium in a small patch of ground, about the tenth of a mow, near Icheng, was made to pay 20,000 cash. The taotai's jurisdiction comprises an area of over 4,000 square miles, and I was informed by two members of the China Inland Mission who had recently journeyed through it that it was uniformly free from opium cultivation.\n\nFrom Hotsin, I travelled eastward to Kiangchou and Icheng. At the latter place, I was shown a letter received from the missionary living at Luan-fu, stating that the same stringent measures had been taken in the west of the province as those in force to the east of the Fen Valley, and this statement was corroborated by communications from residents at Lucheng and Licheng. On leaving Icheng, I travelled over the mountains to Tsechon-fu in the extreme south-east of Shansi, crossed the border to Chinghua, the terminus of the Peking Syndicate Railway in Honan, and so returned to Peking by rail.\n\n## 35\n\nMy journey lasted exactly a month and covered a distance of over 400 miles, through what were formerly some of the most noted opium-producing districts of the province. I did not, however, from first to last, see a single field in Shansi under poppy cultivation.\n\nWhere I have been unable to speak from personal observation, I have quoted from information kindly supplied by missionaries, as being more reliable than that derived from native sources, although I did not fail to question the Chinese themselves whenever an opportunity occurred, and both missionaries and natives were unanimous in affirming that the suppression of the poppy was complete.\n\nThis report, it will be noticed on reference to the map, only covers the southern half of Shansi, as it was unfortunately impossible to visit the regions to the north of the capital as well in the limited time at my disposal. According to Ting Tajên, however, the troops stationed at Kueihuacheng and other districts in the north have received orders to patrol the country and see that the prohibition is rigidly enforced, and this statement is confirmed by M. Larsson, a Swedish missionary living at Tatung-fu, who states that beyond one or two unsuccessful attempts to sow poppy with cabbages, there has been no opium cultivation in the parts visited by himself and his fellow workers. This is the extent of my information on the north of the province, but I am told that the amount of opium grown there was comparatively unimportant, and in view of the thoroughness with which the orders of the Taiyuan-fu authorities have been carried out in the remotest parts of the south, there is no reason for doubting that the same has been the case throughout.\n\nThe measures taken in Shansi against opium have, as was to be expected, enormously increased the price of the drug, especially in the neighbourhood of the capital, but less so in places near the frontier, on account of the smuggling. An ounce (liang) of the best native article cost formerly about 300 cash. At Taiyuan, it now fetches over 1,000 cash (roughly 1 dollar), at Pingyang-fu 700 cash, and at Hotsin 600 cash. As two-thirds, or at the very least a half, of the adult population, both male and female, consume a certain amount of opium, they are, of course, very seriously affected by the rise in the cost of the drug. The poorer classes are unable to continue buying the quantity to which they have become accustomed, and so, in order to derive the same effect from a smaller amount, they have taken to drinking instead of smoking it. It would appear that a fifth of the amount consumed in the pipe, if dissolved in water and taken in that way, is sufficient to satisfy the same cravings. A great many, of course, are endeavouring to break off the habit altogether, as is evidenced by the large sale of anti-opium medicines, but it is to be feared that those who buy the ordinary pills sold in the shops obtain but little relief, whilst the few Government refuges, where a proper course of treatment is prescribed, are unsuccessful because the patients are not cared for on the premises, and, if left to themselves, they have not the force of will to follow out the instructions, which entail a certain amount of suffering in the preliminary stages of the treatment. In the mission refuges, on the other hand, where the patients are not only under constant supervision during the course but are kept on for about a week after the treatment is over to make certain they are really cured, a considerable amount of good is being done, and the number of people who pass through these institutions is increasing rapidly. At Icheng, for instance, M. Trüdinger, the missionary in charge, informed me that their refuge had treated 120 patients during the last six months, as against 30 or 40 in previous years. Nearly all of these were of the poorer class and were being driven to give up the habit by the increasing price of the drug; those who are not troubled by pecuniary considerations would seem to be making no effort to abandon the vice; on the contrary, some of the richer families boast that they have laid in enough opium to last them for fifty years to come. The breaking off of the opium habit is not such a difficult or lengthy affair as is generally supposed; three weeks or a month being as a rule sufficient to effect a cure, even in bad cases. At Hotsin, I met a man who had been accustomed to smoke 4 oz. a-day, an exceptionally large amount; the average smoker seldom exceeds a tenth of that quantity, say, 4 or 5 mace. He was, however, completely cured and had not touched the drug for several years.\n\nThe method of treatment adopted in most of these refuges is as follows:- For the first five days, the patient is given doses of morphia equivalent to the amount of opium he has been in the habit of consuming; after that, the dose is decreased daily by a tenth until none is given at all, and at the same time, the patient is nourished on good food and is further strengthened by means of ordinary tonic medicines. The difficulty lies in the fact that the victim has usually taken to the drug in the first instance to gain relief from some disease, and on his abandoning the habit, the malady reappears. Dyspepsia, for instance, is responsible for a good...",

Unless the Japanese abandon their aggressive policy, she will not terminate her resistance.\n\nThe ambition of the Japanese militarists, Generalissimo Chiang says, is to conquer China as a preliminary step toward conquering the world. While there was much doubt as to the truth of this allegation before the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese hostilities, it has now been proven by fact.\n\nIt has been universally admitted that the present state of lawlessness, chaos and anarchy had resulted from the Mukden Incident on September 18, 1931. Since the declaration of Prince Konoye on December 22, 1938, regarding the creation of a so-called \"new order in East Asia,\" it has become more evident that Japan's campaign of aggression in China, no matter on what pretext it is carried out, has as its aim to oust the interests of the European and American Powers in Asia and to dominate the Pacific.\n\nBRUNT OF AGGRESSION\n\nBearing the brunt of Japan's aggression, China, Generalissimo Chiang declares, will continue to defend her national independence and existence in disregard of sacrifices. She believes that her resistance to Japan will not only protect her own independence and existence and frustrate Japan's attempts to disturb East Asia and drive out the interests of third Powers but also contribute to world peace and order and the welfare of mankind. This is why, in spite of the brutalities of the Japanese in the past two years, the Chinese masses, now fully realizing the enemy designs, are more determined than ever to resist the aggression, Generalissimo Chiang upholding justice and the sanctity of international treaties.\n\nDeclaring that international treaties and justice must be defended with force and that world peace is indivisible, Generalissimo Chiang urges all peace-loving nations to co-operate and form a united front to cope with the current situation with determination.\n\nGeneralissimo Chiang recalls that China had dealt with Japan with the greatest forbearance for six years after the fall of Manchuria, but she was finally compelled to resort to armed resistance. The aggressor, whose ambitions have no bounds, will not be satisfied by whatever concessions, he states.\n\nThe Generalissimo warns that if the third Powers do not take effective steps to check Japan now, there will be greater chaos and catastrophe for mankind. While thanking them for their sympathy and assistance to China during the past two years, Generalissimo Chiang expresses, on behalf of the whole nation, the hope that the friendly Powers will enforce the international treaties and apply effective economic sanctions against Japan without further delay.\n\nConcluding, Generalissimo Chiang states that 'weak and poor as China is, she will not shun her responsibility of upholding world peace and justice in the face of alien aggression and oppression. With a population of 450,000,000, she will contribute to the best of her ability to world peace and prosperity and will not disappoint the friendly Powers for their present and future assistance.\n\nWith reference to the Japanese threats to the interests of third Powers, molestation of their nationals and bombing of their religious, cultural and economic institutions in China, Generalissimo Chiang states that the Powers must not be coerced by Japan and overlook their responsibility of upholding justice.\n\nHowever, if the third Powers will immediately adopt effective economic sanctions against Japan and increase their material aid to China, the collapse of Japanese militarism will not be far ahead.\n\nIt is her earnest desire that the friendly Powers will immediately take measures to frustrate the Japanese design for the creation of the so-called \"new order in East Asia\" and restore world peace and order.\n\nCHIANG KAI-SHEK",

        "content_text": "# Article 7\nI agree with Mr. Gent. In Singapore, the majority of the arrested or detained persons would probably be Straits-born Chinese and, according to Chinese law, Chinese nationals. The reporting of all such cases would involve a great deal of work, and, in addition, might lead to delay in the administration of justice. Probably this matter could be provided for in a note or agreed minute, as is proposed to be done in regard to a Chinese Consul at New Delhi.\n\n## Article 6\nThe opening declaration in this article is, of course, not strictly accurate, and unless there is some exchange of letters, see 20 and 27, or an agreed minute, there might be trouble in the future.\n\nIn view of the new territories, Hong Kong.

        "content_text": "## Mr Cox \n\nSir William Peel has now produced this enstrick in Hong Kong Inosity and I've revised it. The first paragraph is quite definite. Do you like to make any further comments?\n\nI have (a) revised the list from the 1940 Universities Yearbook; (b) replaced a passage to where it was intended to go; (c) tentatively suggested a slight rounding to get in line with Prof. L.F. Evans' letter.\n\nThe account is very interesting and I would like two copies of it, please, one for circulation to the ACEC members and appropriate departmental officers, and one for our use.\n\n### Mr Cox \n\nSEVIROVED UNDER STAMP spoke about hungking tel. No. 203, attached, definitely for paying on 20/3. Would you be so good as to write in reply to Mr Williamson, saying that we must inform him officially (see page 2 of No. 37 in 1940 file) that we have now informed him of the initiation of the institution of the Rhodes Scholarship for Chinese graduates of Hong Kong University?\n\nThat we are not yet able to make a nomination but that we may now do so. We understand that the position is as stated in tel. No. 203 and in view of the short time before the Spring of the next academic year, he might like to be making preliminary enquiries about a College for his first nominee. This would facilitate the process.\n\nThe suggestion about Bilhol & you could form part of the letter as some form of official letter. Governor has been chosen, let me have the reply back quickly with the publicity arrangements.",
