The task is to proofread this text, correcting spelling errors, fixing spacing issues, rejoining broken sentences, and restoring paragraph breaks, all while preserving the original content and format as much as possible.\n\n## Step 2\nFirst, we need to identify and correct spelling errors. For example, \"Wongkong\" should be \"Hongkong\", \"sh. 1000j€rawa\" should be \"sh. 1000\", and \"Brit. bk 670 Dod\" should be \"Brit. bk 670 Dod\" (no change needed here, but \"Brit.\" is an abbreviation for \"British\" which is correct). \"Dut. 764 ric\" should be \"Dut. 764\", and \"Earl of Windeer\" should be \"Earl of Windsor\".\n\n## Step 3\nNext, we need to fix spacing issues. For instance, \"XCR (85)72\" should be \"XCR(85)72\", and \"GR 1178/1922/32 (III)\" should be \"GR1178/1922/32(III)\".\n\n## Step 4\nWe also need to rejoin broken sentences. The text contains many lines that are split due to OCR layout errors. For example, sentences that are broken across lines without a logical reason should be merged.\n\n## Step 5\nRestoring paragraph breaks is another crucial step. The OCR output may have incorrectly merged or split paragraphs. We need to format the text into proper paragraphs based on the content and logical breaks.\n\n## Step 6\nIndicate missing words with \"...\" if a word is clearly missing due to OCR damage.\n\n## Step 7\nThe text should be formatted in standard Markdown. This includes using headers (#, ##, ###), sub-headers, bold-type (**bold**), and tables using Markdown table syntax.\n\n## Step 8\nSince the text is a mix of different documents, including newspaper articles and court transcripts, we need to be careful not to rephrase or rewrite the content. The task is to correct errors and improve formatting without changing the style, tone, or word choice.\n\n## Step 9\nNo translation of text is required, and file references should not have any spacing inside parentheses.\n\n## Step 10\nPage numbering lines, if detected (usually six lines in total, three at the page beginning and three at the end), should be kept as they are, as they were originally used during scanning to delineate page metadata.\n\n## Step 11\nThe output should be in HTML using for paragraphs and \n only if absolutely necessary.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\n324\n\n25\n\n[NO. 6.

PROGRESS OF HONGKONG.\n\nHer Majesty's Jubilee is one of those events that not only appeal to popular feeling but compel those reflectively inclined to study the changes during the past fifty years. It is not a time merely of state processions, of the pomp and circumstance of a Royal thanksgiving, of official odes of Jubilate ! and Io! Triumphe, but it is also a time of sober exlculation and comparison, so as to estimate what progress has been made.\n\nTo the August Lady herself the occasion, though not standing alone in the annals of her house, is of course, one of the highest moment and of liveliest satisfaction, and may be deemed by her as the crowning event of her long and well-spent life. And there is not the slightest doubt that this is also a feeling in which many of her subjects share, hence the desire to see the occasion worthily celebrated and permanently commemorated.\n\nOf the long list of English Queens, some of them may strike us with a sense of greater grandeur and dignity, a result due perhaps more to tradition and false historical perspective than to literal accuracy; some may have possessed stronger qualities of will and intellect, of wider culture, of more learning; others may have had greater personal attractions, or may be surrounded by a halo of chivalry and romance with which their misfortunes, merited or unmerited, and unrivalled beauty may have invested them, but there is no Queen in that long roll who has so entirely absorbed the enthusiastic and respectful affection of all her subjects as VICTORIA—and that only by the simple charm of true womanliness and pure goodness of heart.\n\nIn the Greater England over the sea, she is equally honoured by the descendants of the Cavaliers that founded Virginia, by the sons of the men of the old faith that founded Maryland, by the posterity of the Puritans that planted the tree of Democracy on Plymouth Rock, or by the pushing frontiersman of the West. In all her relations she has been eminently English; a loving wife, an affectionate mother, a typical English matron; and in times of trial, a self-possessed, courageous English woman—in brief, a model Queen of England!\n\nAmong contemporary Queens, our Queen stands on a pedestal apart. The late Pope, Pius IX., no mean judge of human nature, and in this respect not likely to be a biased judge, considered that she was incomparably the best of them all. \"She stood,\" he said, \"on a pedestal apart.\" In her political life, amidst the ever-changing vicissitudes of English party Government, her conduct has been above suspicion. She would not be a woman if she had not preferences towards this statesman or towards that, but, in her constitutional relationship towards all parties she has maintained the dignified attitude of An English constitutional sovereign.\n\nThe popularity and sympathy she won by her youth and natural grace of manner fifty years ago, she still retains, and that by her clear insight into the needs and aims of her people. Her reign has been an eventful one; it has been marked by many political struggles, and in these, no one has taken greater interest than the Queen herself, who has recognized throughout them all that special characteristic of Englishmen—\"to win reforms by Agitation, what others attempt by Revolution.\"\n\nTempting as the subject is to review the progress, material and scientific, commercial and political, of the Empire during the half century, we consider it more to our purpose to indicate what has been accomplished in the Far East during that time than to review the reign generally. Great as have been the strides of advancement in the West, we have not been lagging so very far behind in the East, retarded though we have been by the inertness of an old and partially fossilised civilization.\n\nChina fifty years ago was a very different country from the China of to-day. So different indeed, that unless a special study is made of the period in question, it is simply a sheer impossibility for the great majority of the residents here to realize the deplorable state in which affairs were then, to understand the helpless and hopeless position with regard to comfort, safety, and personal rights, in which the Jardine, Mathesons, the Dents, the Gibbs, Livingstons, the Turners, the Russells then carried on business in Canton.\n\nAs a description, however curtailed, of things as they were, these will bring into greater relief the points of differences and make a more effective contrast, and we shall, instead of going into long rows of figures and tables, adopt this method.\n\nIt is a mistake to think that Hongkong fifty years ago, was not thought of. The anxieties and annoyances of life at Canton had become so great that the conviction had entered the minds of the merchants, that nothing short of the possession of an island off the Coast of China, independent of the Chinese Government, could give the necessary security to life and property. Formosa, Chusan, Namoa, the Bonin Islands, and Hongkong were all suggested as more or less suitable.\n\nSurveys were made among the Ladrones, of which Hongkong is one, and we find so far back as the time of the Queen's Accession, an anonymous writer, supposed to be the then head of a firm now intimately connected with the history and prosperity of this Colony, suggesting that Hongkong should be the island selected.\n\nAfter describing the physical features and advantages as they are known to all of us, its beautiful, deep, landlocked harbour and clear springs of water, he becomes prophetic or is it the utterance of an oft-repeated prayer while writhing under a sense of official injustice? And says: \"If the lion's paw is to be put down in any part of China, let it be on Hongkong. Let the lion, under his guarantee, declare it a free port, and in ten years it will be the most considerable mart East of the Cape.\"\n\nIt is worth while, in passing, to note what this Canton merchant of half a century ago thought were the conditions of the success of Hongkong and to remind our local Conscript Fathers of the duty of handing them down intact and unimpaired to our successors.\n\nLife in the Old Factories had very little in common with the comparatively pleasant life that foreigners now enjoy in China. Home life was conspicuous by its absence. Foreigners in Canton were a community of mercantile monks, for the Government officials, ignorant of the refining influences of ladies' society, rigidly proscribed them and sternly banished them to Macao.\n\nThe site itself was insalubrious, and at low water, when the foreshore and neighbouring creeks were dry, smelled most abominably. The vilest rowdies inhabited the houses surrounding the factories, and the factory-site itself, if we mistake not, was not greater than the area of the base of the Great Pyramid. These were only minor evils. The residents, cooped up within their factories, were treated like so many denizens of a zoological garden. There they might amuse themselves as much as they liked so long as they made no uproar, as the officials...\n\nPage 527", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-234 - Acting Governor Cameron Governor Des Voeus - 1887 [9-12].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 335408, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-235 - Public Offices - 1887", "page_number": 24, "title": "CO129-235 - Public Offices - 1887", "content_text": "1.1.216.\n\n1.4.217,\n\n1.1.218\n\nWAR\n\nDEPARTMENT.\n\n\"Despatch 2:10107\n\nKOWLOON 'PENINSULA\n\nLand Proposed to be Leded\n\nEo Exe\n\nadmiralfy Shewn timfed Pink D\n\n1ST JUN\n\nM.4.35.\n\n1.4.49\n\nFIF\n\n1.2.61. 1.4.73. ad\n\nLTIRN\n\n1.1.84\n\nJ.L.03.\n\n1.1.99.\n\nCROUND\n\nS\n\n[J.£.5).

Showing solid and effective teaching in the majority of the Classes.\" \n\nI propose to offer, in detail, criticism of the various statements made in this paragraph, as I desire that a wrong impression should not be left on the mind of His Lordship, the Secretary of State for the Colonies.\n\n(a)", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-253 - Public Offices & Others - 1891.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 349233, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-255 - Governor Sir Robinson - 1892 [5-7]", "page_number": 185, "title": "CO129-255 - Governor Sir Robinson - 1892 [5-7]", "content_text": "## Hong Kong \nTrinidad \n825 No. 12962 \n`B & L (121)-16262-8000-5-91` \n**vernor.** \n**NOT** \n**Conf** \nDate: 23 May 1892 \nPrevious Paper: C.O. 12962 \n**DESPATCH** \nRed 27 JUN 22 \n184 \nCommercial undertakings in Trinidad \nStatements by Sir J.

The goal of the Chinese department was to maintain and revise the standard of Chinese knowledge that each boy brought with him to the school.\n\nThe results of the Anglo-Chinese Class, however, were not as satisfactory. The examination results showed a lack of energy in this branch of the school, likely due to the difficulties of the written Chinese language and the lack of interest from non-Chinese boys. It was suggested that the Head-Master consider confining the teaching in this Class to the spoken vernacular, making attendance obligatory, and making the study of written Chinese optional for non-Chinese boys who had obtained a certain proficiency in speaking Chinese.\n\nThe subjoined Tables exhibit in detail the results obtained by the examination of the several classes of the Central School both in English and Chinese subjects:\n\nClass\nSubject\nFailed\nPassed\nTotal\n\nVIII\nReading, Arithmetic, Dictation, Geography, Grammar, Translation\n12\n21\n33\n\nI\nEssay writing, Letter writing, Prosody (odes)\n18\n28\n46\n\nII\nEssay writing, Letter writing, Prosody (couplets)\n14\n19\n33\n\nIII\nEssay writing, Letter writing, Prosody (couplets)\n28\n26\n54\n\nIV\nEssay writing, Prosody (couplets)\n15\n14\n29\n\nV\nEssay writing, Prosody (couplets)\n10\n14\n24\n\nVI\nEssay writing, Prosody (couplets)\n25\n18\n43\n\nAnglo-Chinese Class, Division I\nReading, Explaining, Writing, Translation\n11\n7\n18\n\nX\nReading, Arithmetic, Dictation, Writing, Translation\n2\n38\n40\n\nXI\nReading, Writing, Translation\n7\n16\n23\n\nPage 363\n\nThe results of the Government Normal School were also satisfactory.

The deduction drawn in paragraph 23 of Stanton's petition that the list was unreliable because it contained the names of Hall and Mann is not justified by the facts.

On the 1st December, 1892, he was promoted to the rank of Sergeant and appointed to the important post of Barrack Sergeant at the Central Police Station, and on the 7th of August, 1894, he was further promoted, to be a first class Sergeant, which is the highest rank a Chinese can aspire to. During the whole of his service, up to the time of his resignation and subsequent dismissal, hereinafter mentioned, his conduct was uniformly good.\n\n2.--In September 1897, your Petitioner, in consequence of instructions from Mr. A. Mackie, then Acting Deputy Superintendent of Police, sent to the Honourable F.H. May, C.M.G., the Captain Superintendent, a written application to be allowed to resign from the Police on the pension to which he was entitled.\n\n3.--Your Petitioner received no reply to his application, but, after waiting two weeks, the Captain Superintendent, who was also the Superintendent of the gaol, accused him of having received bribes from gamblers and confronted him with a prisoner, named Sham Io, who was then undergoing a sentence of nine months with hard-labour, for a breach of the gambling ordinance. This prisoner denied that he had ever paid any money to your Petitioner, but stated that he had paid money to one Tang Kam to pay to him. But, notwithstanding Sham Io's denial and the fact that there was absolutely no evidence whatever to show that your Petitioner was guilty of the offence imputed to him, he was subsequently dismissed from the Force.\n\n4.--Under threats of banishment the man Tang Kam was detained a prisoner in Victoria gaol about three weeks, in order to compel him to give evidence in another case. If the Captain Superintendent had been able to extort from that man, or to obtain from any other source, any evidence that your Petitioner had been guilty of receiving bribes, or of any other dereliction of office, your Petitioner respectfully submits that he should have been charged, and tried in a proper manner, before a Magistrate. But he denies that he has ever received any money from any person in respect to gambling houses, and he has never shirked a fair trial.\n\n5.--About a month after his dismissal, your Petitioner sent, through the Registrar General's Office, a respectful Petition to His Excellency the Governor, Sir W. Robinson, G.C.M.G., complaining of the injustice that had been done", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-284 - Acting Governor Major Gen Black - 1898 [7-8].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 368109, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-285 - Acting Governor Major Gen Black - 1898 [9-10]", "page_number": 518, "title": "CO129-285 - Acting Governor Major Gen Black - 1898 [9-10]", "content_text": "## DESPATCH\n**C.

Every one of you should be glad to hear it. \n\nIn the Tsing Dynasty, there are no right principles; the officials are greedy and selfish, they do harm to the whole world. Taxes and likin are increased; subscriptions and extortions are numerous; they exhaust the substance of the people. \n\nConsequently, the anger of the people has been raised; and I therefore raise the flag of justice. Set rid of the Manchus and lift up the Chinese. This will be for the general good and not for private ends. Protect the merchant and uphold religion, and thereby lay the foundation of a great peace. \n\nRescue the common people and punish the criminal. Obey heaven and seize this opportunity.

There is a Clerk in the Registry who bears the title of **Chief Justice's Clerk**: but he is in the Registry with work to do there, and it is impossible to withdraw him permanently to do what a Secretary should do. Moreover, as the Registry is at the other end of the passage, he is not readily accessible, and I have to send my coolie for him, and if the coolie is absent, I have to go to the Registry myself to fetch him. \n\n(c). The same thing happens when I want any books from the library. The Chief Justice's Chambers has practically no books, and he is obliged to use the Court Library (which is called in error the \"**Judge's Library**\"). This is also at the other end of the passage, and it is obvious that the Chief Justice cannot go to the Library to consult books of reference when Barristers and Solicitors are there. When it is necessary, as it often is, to consult books during the mid-day adjournment of the Court, it not infrequently happens from one cause or another that I am absolutely unable to get there. \n\n5. \n\nIn these three respects, I cannot help comparing the comfort with which the four Judges in Mauritius are surrounded, with the discomfort which the Chief Justice in Hongkong has to put up with. There, not the Chief Justice only, but the three Puisne Judges have their personal clerks, each in a room adjoining the Judge's room. They are specially chosen by the Judge himself, are of good social position, and receive a salary of Rupees 3,000 per annum. \n\n6. \n\nIn Hongkong, a Private Secretary is even more necessary from another point of view than in Mauritius, for the Chief Justice has many social duties to perform which do not arise in Mauritius: such as calls on foreign Consuls, and Ships of war. Foreigners attach a considerable importance to these social attentions. The General has his Aide-de-Camp, and the Commodore his Secretary; but the Chief Justice, who ranks above the Commodore, has no one who can perform", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-335 - Governor Nathan - 1906 [8-10].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 406174, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-336 - Governor Nathan & Public Offices - 1906 [11-12]", "page_number": 149, "title": "CO129-336 - Governor Nathan & Public Offices - 1906 [11-12]", "content_text": "Enclosure 144\n\n3.\n\nC.O.\n\nObeventh of an\n\nNonbiya muěvě\n\n198 ban\n\nNot qufet nato bile ord\n\nIo von mal vein of u\n\nATTORNE\n\nW.\n\n-0.05\n\n:).\n\nTone Lisox\n\nZołm Be\n\nTo vib „JOI KE pa umro ni waYLOVOR\n\n::\n\nFlag of I\n\n* & abritann að fros dowZİ ·\n\nWhird no good\n\n(5)\n\nThe Executive Council of Hongkong.\n\nCouncil Chambers, 23rd November, 1906,\n\nPresent:-\n\n2.30 P.M.\n\nlog 29 DEC 06\n\n1.

The Chief Station is Canton, to which place the carriage by water is extremely low and as I said before some inducement such as greater speed must be held out to draw traffic to the line. The number of coolies travelling however is so large that a very small profit per mile mounts up to a good sum of money and for reasons stated above this division of profits for this traffic must be by mileage. I will enter into figures later on. \n\nAnother centre of passenger traffic for which I have got figures is San Chun a town of some importance about one mile over the frontier in Chinese territory. The fare by steamer from Hong Kong is 30 cents. The first part of the journey is by steam launch and then as the tide very often does not allow of the steamer reaching the landing stage, passengers have to tranship into a stern wheel boat. The landing stage is about a mile from the town. This is a place to which much higher rates per mile can be charged and yet easily get all the passengers. In the first place owing to shallow water it sometimes takes a whole day to go from Hong Kong to Sam Chun, and then the passengers have to walk about a mile. The Railway will bring passengers there in about 75 minutes and land them much near the village. The distance from Hong Kong is about 23 miles of which only one mile is on the Chinese Section. For this reason the British Section must have the power to quote a high rate say 14 cents per mile for 3rd. class passengers. \n\nShek Lung is in a similar position, but I have not been able to obtain any figures for the traffic between Hong Kong and this place.

The correspondence on this subject took place in September, 1906.\n\n6.\n\nI have on previous occasions referred Your Excellency to what I consider the state of stagnation into which the Supreme Court had been allowed to fall. (I allude specially to the concluding paragraph of my letter of 7th February, 1908). I have been trying to restore it to the position in which it ought to hold in so wealthy a Colony, and with it to obtain for the Judges more consideration from the Government than it has been hitherto customary to accord to them. I have little doubt that this unfortunate minute of Sir G. Phillippo, and the still more unfortunate construction that has been placed upon it, have had a large share in bringing about the state of things which I have endeavoured to report to Your Excellency. The question is so important that I have the honour to request that Your Excellency will be good enough to grant me an interview in which I can go more fully into the question than is possible in a letter,\n\n## Excellency \n\nSir Frederick Lugard, K.C.M.G., Governor of Hongkong.\n\nI have etc..\n\n(sd.)

Such prohibited articles are certain \n\n\"vegetables, old clothing, and rags, etc. I am informed that \n\n*this inspection is carried out with the concurrence and ap- \n\n\"-proval of the Masters and Owners of the vessels concerned, \n\n\"with a view to the saving of time and prevention of the \n\n\"vessels' detention in quarantine in United States Ports. \n\n\"That such is probably a fact the following \n\n\"goes far to suggest: \n\n\"(1). Any passenger landed in consequence of rejection \n\n\"by the United States Doctor has a ground of action against the Master and/or Agents for \n\n\"Breach of Contract. \n\n\"(2).", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-357 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [7-9].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 420243, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-358 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [10-11]", "page_number": 133, "title": "CO129-358 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [10-11]", "content_text": "COPY.\n\nVYSTHY360 I· Fnol:0 era of 103?a} {ok word 'd mor\n\n...\n\nSir,\n\nroztoklon mwort set of vesseñoar Isiqolob eɗa mor?\n\n800L smart, „dzes berab\n\n.S\n\nadetos?

The Ordinary Revenue is estimated in a given year to be $6,000,000 and the Ordinary Expenditure (viz. apart from the Military Contribution and Public Works Estimates)\n\nto be $5,000,000. This, when the Margin is divided between the two, gives only $500,000 for Public Works, and the Colony instead of increasing its Revenue raises a Loan of $1,000,000 the Interest and Fund for which amounts to\n\n$40,000 per annum. The Military Contribution therefore is only $500,000 for the year and the sum available for Works is $1,500,000. But the next year the Debt charge falls due,\n\n(and in each subsequent year). Suppose that the Revenue and Expenditure have adjusted themselves to the normal proportion of $6,000,000 and $4,000,000 respectively, (if not the Colony must raise the extra Revenue it omitted to do previously) without taking this Debt charge into account, and suppose that the normal amount of $1,000,000 is required\n\nfor Public Works. Then the Colony must find not $40,000, but $80,000 extra in each succeeding year (for Loan Account)\n\nand the Military Contribution increases each year by $40,000 thus:-\n\n \n Kil.Con.\n P.W.E.\n Ord.Exp.\n \n \n $1,040,000.\n 1,000,000.\n 4,000,000.\n 6,040,000.\n \n \n Ord.

Till then they would appear as Extra-Ordinary Revenue not assessable to Military Contribution.\n\n18", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-358 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [10-11].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 420325, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-358 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [10-11]", "page_number": 215, "title": "CO129-358 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [10-11]", "content_text": "The love from opium is considerably below anticipated to the Govt.\n\nThe expiring gain presumably...\n\n*60/* *0008 *2-180T (LZE8) 'M'Y' '80/11 '0009 '97--†2007 '4M '(068)\n\nThe loss in 1911, 1912, will be as I make it\n\n$270,140,\n\nA\n\nmortgage\n\n$145,200; the new farm has been bid for\n\neventually\n\nwhich means\n\nA\n\n$1452.84 loss $1453340\n\n1783 1\n\nin to crown\n\n$ 1783 200, of 268800 this $1340 (opium diran humans)\n\n= in mutual loss of $270140 aver\n\n(Where Figures do not\n\nappear\n\nwith those printed in\n\n13\n\npage 18 of the dept\n\nand I am unable\n\nto\n\nreconcile Their, dear loss\n\nthis year\n\ntaking into account the extra revenue read from the higher expiring form, is placed\n\nat $225,860 (including & Divan licences) The Govt. explains that the estimator (Mr.9.)\n\nfire the wrong figures\n\neventually accepted\n\n$1,186,560\n\nArupting\n\n[\n\nWhere\n\nThe poses linder\n\n$1,183,200, mis tund\n\nthe highest bid.\n\ncorrect the has this\n\nera\n\nrland\n\n47014 The explanation\n\nis now\n\nclear\n\nfor 40136 uh: In Fishing\n\nhaven't gem.

If necessary the officer would prepare Passes in advance say for 2, 4, 6, 8 & 10 jars which he could easily check since he would be on the spot. This of course to prevent distillers complaining of delay during the short absence of the officer.\n\nAnother system of supervision would be to take each distillery by turn under entire control for ten days once in four months. The smaller distilleries for less time. By this method a fair average of the renderings of each distillery may be arrived at. It may be argued that during this period the distillers would arrange to manufacture less or no wine, in that case a permanency would be enforced and at the expense of the distiller.\n\nI would also suggest that a check be made periodically by the inspection of the distillery private account books by the Audit Department.\n\nFrom enquiries made at Wo Chan Distillery in Kennedy Town and others I am informed that from 80 to 90 catties rice is required for 100 catties of wine: that one still produce from 30 to 150 catties wine daily according to demands. All the distilleries admit that from 9 to 12 catties of wine is required for each 100 catties of vinegar. If the distillers do not take their books, by the quantity of rice bought could also be ascertained the production of wine. No clean rice is used for making vinegar. It is manufactured with the residue after fermentation &c. for making wine.\n\nI must again refer to the idea that seems to prevail that licensed distilleries are on the same footing as licensed warehouses. I maintain that the ordinance never intended that such would be the case. Licensed distilleries have bonding privileges concerning their output only, i.e., wine made from grain only and no other.\n\n### 東美蒸酒房 \nThe Tung Mi distillery at 15 Tung Lo Wan has received since the 1st January 1894 gallons of Spirits of wine which it is stated is denatured for making a kind of wine called Fa Teau (花酒) which is used for preserving Bean-Curd: this industry being conducted in Licensed warehouse No.18 at 324-8 Queen's Road West.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-366 - Governor Sir Lugard Acting Governor May - 1910 [4-5].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 425579, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-366 - Governor Sir Lugard Acting Governor May - 1910 [4-5]", "page_number": 603, "title": "CO129-366 - Governor Sir Lugard Acting Governor May - 1910 [4-5]", "content_text": "## \n9.12.09.\n\nOn grounds of interest.\n\n...(I)\n\n...(s)\n\n:Jasretni stamtrg zo landareq A \n\n.taeredat Islènstades \"io evitom ms 10 \n\nat ca erutan s rove to ed taux facietat oft \n\n.enhut odd to brim eft nald of viesti \n\nof betrtridura od tortamı aldð tæfð Jae-que I \n\nwal end to motntqo writ tent voir a dítly state to Ytafeto6B srit \n\n.CIBER8000 ti dexað að vart tworû edź te ate÷1770 \n\nnolteem aldð dads galintat qien Jonnao I \n\nnolineup ad: of tetet I .ynolod tedto eroa of cone\">Tot \n\nVIB NÓ YBW toa ni beɛirbs eart oilw LameneD-yentoż¿å arid Terterw \n\nsuit to eybut a se quiszłe wont belttisupetb at agcibo00074 \n\nBERUOTS \n\n598 \n\n**(Sd.)

The victim had no time to report the matter as he wanted to catch the steamer to Canton. He himself did not report the case as an European Policeman came on the scene.

Mr. Lau Chu-pak states that he has information of 2 more cases of this nature. He has not yet reported them.\n\n12.\n\nMr. Ho Fook said that the Triad Society is very rife now.

Most of the cases had been reported to the Police. He complained that the punishment meted out to criminals in Hongkong was much too lenient. He thought more thieves were harboured in Yaumati than on the Hongkong side of the harbour. Some kept shops and brothels in Yaumati. They were in league with robbers in China.

It has however been specially constructed for the Star Ferry Boats and considerable alterations would have to be made in it to render it suitable for ordinary launches. The deck-houses would also be to a great extent useless for the purposes of a public pier. I therefore consider that the sum of, say, $22,000 would be a sufficient amount to pay for the pier. The Government would be saved the cost of construc -ting a public pier, which would amount to at least $40,000 for a pier of the same area as the Star Ferry pier.\n\nCompensation for the removal of buildings on K.M.L's.\n\n3 & 9.

The practice referred to in the words repealed is practically obsolete; but after further consultation with the magistrates I have decided to retain it, as it is a privilege, and should not be taken away from the accused. I have however in accordance with their suggestion inserted in s. 72(2) words to ensure (what is the practice) that the depositions should be read over to the witnesses in the presence of the accused.\n\nIt will be convenient at this point to explain another amendment in relation to evidence, introduced into s. 32 of No. 2 of 1889. The section relates to dying depositions. It is practically copied from the English Act, but it is badly worded and confused. The practice has however taken definite shape and the section in its new form accords with that practice.\n\n(xi) and (xii) already corrected.\n\n(xiii) *s. 61* is a misprint for \"s. 62\" and had been already corrected.\n\n(xiv) the sub-sections referred to are repealed; (2) because it is provided for generally; (3) because it is incorporated.\n\n(xv) the definition of \"motor-boat\" is contained in No. 9 of 1909 which is now incorporated with No. 10 of 1899.\n\n(xvi) \"misdemeanor\" was a misprint for \"felony\" and the correction had already been made.\n\n(xvii), (xviii), (xix) and (xx) already corrected.\n\n(xxi) I agree with the criticism, but the form was necessary on account of the use of the words \"Life Insurance\" in the title and sub-title, in which the substitution of the word \"company\" could not be made.\n\n(xxii), (xxiii), and (xxiv) already corrected.\n\n(xxv) I think it better to repeal these Ordinances expressly as they had been inadvertently left on the Statute Book, and there is now an express reference to their repeal.\n\n(xxvi) item (63) introduced by No. 23 of 1903, s. 25.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-389 - Governor Sir Lugard Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1912 [3-4].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 437863, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-390 - Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1912 [5-6]", "page_number": 69, "title": "CO129-390 - Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1912 [5-6]", "content_text": "1 OF TWO\n\nthe grant of the desired site.\n\n1\n\nnot,ruwudaei..d to tasï m%ups (000,01)\n\nhol wu.siicer has\n\n2 quite 200 bilow to dokud.. end miota edie suï\n\nHis Excellency\n\n10 Jon III: İ⠀\n\navilo at\n\n0 : To swot end o\n\nper mos jai on; en la obesu w 20% nold-\n\nDile\n\n2009a od mi i mulu\n\n2 I WO SI ...\n\nUMA Bwi.

His Excellency further agrees that in Macao, as is the case in Hongsong, there are Merchants who limit their trade to the import and export of certificated Opium to China, but that hitherto none of them have compleined that the Farm in Macao acts prejudicially to their legitimate trade, being natural-ly of the conviction that they are unaffected by it.\n\n7. His Excellency the Governor further directs me to say that the Macao Government remains with the best intentions of co-operating with the Hongkong Goverment in fact it has hitherto really co-operated in repressing the entry of illicit Opium into China. If some modifications in the legislation become necessary in consequence of the Conference at the Hague, of which the results are not yet officially known in Macao, His Excellency the Governor would propose adopting all such modifica-tions, conforing however to the same rules as may be followed in Hongsong having regard to the identical interests which the two Colonies have in this matter. As the term of the present con-tract will expire next year it would appear best that such alterations as may be thought convenient to adopt should then be made thus avoiding the binding clauses of the existing contract on the Macao Government.\n\nHis Excellency, however, suggest the expediency of securing the adoption of those modifications at all the neighbouring ports interested in the matter, for unless this is done such modifications would not be productive of useful re-sults commensurate with the sacrifice made.\n\nHealth and Fraternity.\n\n(Sd.)

Misc. papers in the Registry are not sorted out in the Registry some time for months. 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. I could prove that we belong to the same village (This", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-409 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [1-3].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 447590, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-410 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [3-5]", "page_number": 132, "title": "CO129-410 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [3-5]", "content_text": "Page 400\n\n081\n\nLaitnebitnð\n\n.mobrol mob riƐ of max ygniT isst Istimiā\n\n„JnebleetŸ ens to soil10\n\n.DİKİ ..#II viautoel\n\ntoy to jqlover adi agbelvonios od zad I\n\n„miet, vil taob TÄ\n\nMay\n\n3 juinolone ·ottal end „d yanusdeft hus ES gımant bejah stejjel\n\nĐ\n\nmeil vib.a. nożyno to sarevað Með Mon? sottoi sáð 1o ygoo cnautoVoo Jibnes to Joejdos aut no Ils ¡yonalisoxa Sươ, Đà CAMÍ\n\n•\\distovinŲ Joongnail náð og anich stroll mor? mine but s\n\nguinisðnun jddes vinunat, betab settei weŸ Baw,Joejuus siid no toilä seĹsad) váž to neomesses bez uwagi acid við beðunim odw„Jnebisari edd A .A od hottiendra van bodeÏMBIJ AT AMBW,KOItvoulk to Tojeinial edit to nektarsolni adla zəl ámbaromb\n\nTiênio.fone,.Atc pravidel hatab sattel wor\n\n.det?\n\n-dve raw,yonelleox; we od „bič (towirt, bedab tejjel a'yınek bra noija...molni a'jmbiee9 and rot mauit»Íntend rijkw basİ İNG-\n\n.noticeb\n\n-leuri woY to anoitebna.MODOT (900%ře náið mů\n\nbas „Joil soitad 112 1o anoidetueseıqan doemise erit ne „yone1- srit Jand you yumeli til Tonerod aid to meosarunas şiɔilqre ad no -rw edidmi oj atue buta ads Jimmieq dan Ilkw weiðitostná zrodznoĦ arebro nevig stoleravíð sæi Jusbiseri end‚usebi Isolaklog ydtləndi- end of yĺdosxib bnes of conivov9,ildid) to tontare) LIVED ødt øð Timid overwg of athobute Juelmrzovoð Ju,io ydinravioli zmoigneḤ\n\n.mei bude\n\n1914\n\n& march\n\nLast previous Paper.\n\n4.700.94\n\nches\n\n12862\n\nCopy\n\nAdin 2\n\n23 Shel\n\nDisposed of by minute on\n\nadruty\n\nHONG KONG\n\n10605\n\nWireless I Cation.\n\nREC\n\nCO\n\n10605\n\nREG 21 MAR 14\n\n131\n\nIs informed by adminal peoram that he is suggeding that naval wincles's station should be relamed in Iaman. \"If this is approved, Col lost; is prepared to undertake construction\n\nof shation\n\ndr.

I am not prepared to say definitely that it is inadequate but compared with staff provided for Military works of a similar nature it certainly appears to be so.\n\nThe Director of Public Works states that he can reduce the Staff by 1 Overseer. Considering Mr. Chatham's large experience of work in the Colony his opinion is probably of greater value than mine. It must however be remembered that the foremen employed are natives (Chinese and others) who may play into the hands of Contractors unless very carefully supervised. Chinese Contractors are well known to be extremely clever in scamping work. For this reason alone the policy of cutting down European Staff is not sound and likely to lead to bad results and possibly to\n\nactual failures.\n\n5.\n\nMaintenance of Buildings and Roads.\n\nI have carefully considered the question of expenditure on maintenance of buildings and roads.\n\nFrom information contained in the estimates for 1909, page 15, I gather that the amounts voted are generally insufficient and that supplementary estimates have to be submitted yearly. The number of public buildings and roads are constantly increasing, the older a building the greater is the sum required to keep it in repair, hence it is obvious that the estimates for maintenance should show an annual increase unless large numbers of old buildings are pulled down and reconstructed.\n\nThe custom with Military works maintenance is to base the estimates on the average of the expenditure for the previous 3 years. In the case of the Public Works estimates, practically the same figures are repeated yearly and the experience of previous years as regards actual expenditure does not", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-411 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [5-7].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 448107, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-411 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [5-7]", "page_number": 326, "title": "CO129-411 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [5-7]", "content_text": "Page 332\n\n00.IX\n\nI syd\n\nJoelib snenidų brosea\n\nOGR\n\nII t\n\nI quit\n\nJoelail sonido brid\n\n008\n\nII ayat2\n\nJok\n\nI €32\n\nnoisalem.T\n\nOck\n\nOOSA\n\nII\n\nIII\n\n2\n\nond ui eta iti. 10 « ninsdo of milst otabibro a ti\n\nni min of bətımız ad IIiw euro on beretne and en doing tot 88io\n\n.88ʊlo ove ni noijo itilap laidung To Josqror\n\nening 1o wo a u bedoubnos ad Ilann anoidanilorË\n\n.(a)\n\n.Totovo end yu exqwq and 101 betnioqqo\n\nSu arod e.. od viimaney neqo eu I Lade anoi, anilove eni\n\n(3)*\n\n-:anvis Bos „nivolioi sild of Juajdus eoiviee Jnentsvol ens\n\nww no.

If this arrangement has been adhered to the position is a curious one, but the result would probably be that the transport of food supplies for the German forces over this line would be a breach of neutrality. Apart however from the difficulty of the ownership of the railway, we would, if we raised any objection, be met with the legal difficulty as to whether land transport of food stuffs which will probably reach a belligerent military and naval base, but which cannot be marked as intended for the belligerent's armed forces, is any breach of neutrality even if carried out over a railway which is worked on behalf of the neutral state.\n\n2.\n\nThe point of distinction between such a case and that of the Hongkong food supply by the Canton River is that in the latter case there is no transport by any railway or shipping belonging to the neutral state itself. The supply comes down in ships belonging to private persons and in many cases in British ships.\n\n3.\n\nUnder all the circumstances of the case I would not advise any protest being made without a reference to the authorities at home.\n\nSd.\n\nJ.

I commend this scheme, for the details of which I am indebted \nto Mr. Stevenson, the Electrician, to your consideration and, \nshould it be decided to adopt it, I would suggest that the exchange \nbe fitted up and Sections C, D and J be undertaken in the first \ninstance at a cost of 10,000. The remaining Sections could then be \ncompleted gradually or as funds permitted.\n\n14. The great advantage of the underground cable is that it needs \nno repairs and its life is very long. The actual cost of a cable \nwith 100 cores is comparatively very little more than a cable with \n20 cores as it is the covering and insulating material that is \nexpensive and not the cores themselves. Consequently, a cable with \na much larger number of cores than are at the moment required is \nalways laid in the first instance, but the cost of additional \nconnections afterwards is negligible. On the other hand, in the \naerial system, each connection is a considerable additional expense, \nboth on initial cost and in maintenance, and the number of wires on \nthe ordinary street pole is very limited. When this limit is \nreached on the main lines, all the poles must be replaced at a very \ngreat expense.\n\n15. I would add that the scheme now proposed for Hongkong allows \nfor extensions for many years to come and that, if it is adopted \nand the additional cable laid across the Harbour, the Government \nwould have a first-class telephone system which would pay for \nitself in 10 years out of savings on the present arrangements.\n\n000, ISR\n\nJa emeros eloche erit axettebш of ywaassen Jon si tI Laeoqong \nsiht to drove and nit,ban aroitos2 yd enob ed two JI .cono -:ebro \nniwollol ede mi besoory kluoda show erit,bedqobo zriad TAST 10,6 \n20,ɩ ‚¤ 10 anoitoel (861012 bro ægnittit) Istene)) Valduo laidint \nodd no RG ad Itw eanonedniam to Jaco BẶT SI\n\nSd.\n\nA.

Accord- ing to my information, arms have been sent from Hongkong to the island of Cheung Chau whence in fishing boats are sent to the junks which on the high sea serve as depots for the smugglers of arms.\n\nI am not aware if the laws of the Colony which Your Excellency so ably administers, would permit the absolute suppression of the trade in arms of warfare. But I can convincingly assure Your Excellency that as long as arms should be supplied to the pirates, if sale of such arms were made in Hongkong, all the measures that the Government of Macao employs against the entry of armaments would turn useless. The rest is easily seen, the importation of arms for the South of China can only be made by Hongkong the only port which normally links this region with the rest of the world. The only arms, which clandestinely come to Macao or for the pirates of the adjacent islands must necessarily be furnished by the importers of Hongkong.\n\n6.\n\nI am well aware that, in a great scale in the island of Tai Vong Kam (Montanha) and in a more reduced number in the islande of Lapa and D.Joso, many pirates take refuge, and it is presumed that these pirates when proceeding to Hongkong use as their way of passage the part of Macao where probably they stay for some time without being suspected.\n\nYour Excellency is aware of the situation of those islands from the point of view of the relations between Portugal and China. Portugal considers them as a dependency of Macao under the terms of the Treaty of 1887 and China refuses to recognise the jurisdiction of the Government of Macao over those territories. The island Tai Vong Kam which is of considerable extent is not policed. It is necessary and indispensable to have there permanent policing and not to send simple expeditions before which the pirates take to their heels and then return when the field is free.\n\nThe Government of Macao is fully disposed to affect such policing and believes to be able to guarantee that that part of the island, the policing of which to become the charge of its", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-413 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [8-10].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 449000, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-413 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [8-10]", "page_number": 249, "title": "CO129-413 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [8-10]", "content_text": "To aoitszeiseb mit zetis netab gatzsed atist yak\n\nKinolol edt of bertelen bra yliainage d‡èw diaeb ed łw KAV\n\n• TIBŤ SI DEƐ\n\nnotas blod \"insä eÅT\" SZYJIE HAS CKA NAZI (JO\n\n---\n\nodt ni atemen IIbw dołdw Isel blog to tdzłew 008 efest\n\nlo easd Obs blod oala \"lost oft\"\n\n**:{and ed** 10 VIUBBOTT\n\nTOYJIB\n\nezed 10 .Y'IENOTI 'e 'fas§ ed‡' al won el dolde\n\n---- BJJUDI8D \"Xama eft\" to tauosos no bied exa Amos Brad\n\nC\n\n.qide of y‡llideak of gaiwo ered benister ena bas doɑstā\n\n**:ius& od‡\" lo Javasos no ybojevo sisɛ at blød eza zzad red±0\n\nblo as tebou enecido of esse bine evať odw donate uotas)\n\nIIS TO JTAC to previleb tødt ofdieɛoq ti aj Jud Joantnos\n\nJnomyida A .‡Heryag Ánso tanlaga gnofzook at meist od yAN\n\nbobusi aww doɑszü nodns0 \"e 'XanƐ eft\" yd bioa zevita zad to\n\n-10g Jasy yam \"Insa eit\" bas berota ni di scadw amadolol ta\n\nTied to tauosos no ered bled azad edt zevo exet of doleria\n\ndiiw ebam tositaoo edt teniaga meit tec bra estilo attusieb\n\nsmadoxol at atad edt gaivsel bateja avoda notre◊ at eɛenido\n\n.eolì10 sttuðlað Tiedt io tavoɔde no Szedt blød ed of\n\nent walls of baƉogoïq mi ‡I ZMARDIJAT OVA BATTLI\n\nEA .duo gatog bas at gatmos szettel Ila Attw Iasb of ImƐ\n\n-Teban el .emattom:feat evad of bølg ed Iladu ow side of\n\nof berevtleb to moti betysosa ezs Baszzelet oa tadt basta\n\n.eldt writinos mase19 ‚liste Tiedt zo \"Xanā odƒ”\n\nIIIw egoitosanett Lis tol areďovov IIA JARZKIÐ\n\nLIIw odw‚\"evitatkozoïqeli odƒ\" to ebasd edt équordt baaŋ\n\nHoltosaasat oa tait ob of oɛ Tewog eźd ni ao Tai za 002\n\n•\n\ned to noqu belool ed yow yas al bluos doldw dgvozit reo3\n\n▼ bezeblaños\n\n---\n\nconsidered as new business.

However, the input text is too corrupted to apply these rules effectively.\n\n## Step 4: Format the Text\nSince the text is not coherent, formatting it into standard Markdown or HTML is challenging. The text does not contain recognizable headers, paragraphs, or tables that can be formatted.\n\n## Step 5: Reorder Newspaper Text and Handle Chinese Writing Direction\nThe text does not appear to be from a newspaper or contain Chinese text that needs reordering.\n\n## Step 6: Output in HTML Format\nGiven the corrupted nature of the text and the instruction to output in HTML using `` for paragraphs, the task becomes preserving the original content as closely as possible while adhering to the formatting guidelines.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\nas \n\n€681+ \n\n1 stada istome? sdi co gael grek to ronrevođ eðT \n\n.asinoloD adt \n\n(.AI) aed MS #1.6 Tie ecit10 Istmo Io beviepᢣ) \n\nPEC \n\nRec \n\nC.

The\n\nallegation is that Lee Hyson simply sold to himself, at a time wheri\n\nthe price of opium was rising quickly, and thereby made for himself\n\na big sum of money which ought to have been made by the Yu Hing\n\nCompany. The Company held 212 chests of certified opium.\n\n(Sd.) R. 0.

About 6 p.m. on the 17th March the informers came again and stated that about half of the 28 junks had already arrived and discharged their salt. They requested me to come with them at once to catch the remainder, which they said would arrive the following day. I told them that I would give orders immediately to have steam raised on the launch, but that I expected them to deposit $100 to pay for the coal the launch would consume, in case of this third trip having no result. They left for Kongmoon city to procure the deposit required, but did not return. The next day I received a report from the Tide-waiter in charge of Gaemoon Station, to the effect that a number of salt junks could be seen behind the islands from the station hill, which commands the view over the Gaemoon and Tao Moon passes as well as some of the outlying islands, and that quite a number of junks were discharging salt in the Sze Hau Chung. This place, I should mentioned can only be entered by vessels not drawing more than five feet of water, at high water, and it is very dangerous to enter same as the salt smugglers are well armed there, the arms being brought off to the junks in sampans before the junks enter the Taomoon pass; whilst on their way to and from British waters the junks are without arms, as being caught with arms on board in those waters, would make them liable to the infliction of a heavy penalty on the part of the British Government. At 7.00 p.m. on the 19th March I received another report from Gaemoon Station informing me that the Tide-waiter stationed there had seized three salt junks and requesting me to send the Customs launch to Gaemoon to take them up to Konmoon.

We ship, in fact, to every part of the world but if, as we suppose, machinery will presently be set up for the issue of special export licences from Singapore as from the U.K., we are quite content in regard to the other countries to put our applications through in the usual manner. \n\nWe would, however, mention that in regard to the U.S.A. it seems to us absolutely superfluous to impose any restrictions whatsoever, seeing that the U.S.A. are themselves by far the largest producers of Paraffin Wax in the world and export annually some 100,000 tons or more, which exports do not appear to be meeting with any interference whatever. In the circumstances, we think that as far as the U.S.A. is concerned, exports of Wax might well be permitted without any licence being necessary. \n\nWe trust we have given you the information which you require, and have the honour to remain, Sir, \n\nYours faithfully, \n\nTHE ASIATIC PETROLEUM COMPANY, LIMITED.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-429 - Public Offices & Others - 1915.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 459241, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-430 - Others & Individuals - 1915", "page_number": 99, "title": "CO129-430 - Others & Individuals - 1915", "content_text": "(S)\n\natneza viremio) 919# .05 å graɗrsX,blodnтA .87880)\n\n\"qode\" nwoud (Iew sɗt heau ħna rejasional to tsesti .araesk tol\n\nHPhołd\" \"Xovi & xo1\" -:stv (shoog sostą to zasia mistren a tot\n\n[strejem eidT .qodo 15mmeð s ed of saamiño adð yð bareblanco at\n\nesiam Jædd mri】 9msa eďt , vɗ bezudostmam bas,ot Tafimba at\n\nNi miit faldira galbení a yơ hloe qorie \"dose¶ bas sigsï* 9AF\n\nwon at I «moititeqmos need ni el ‡i deidw d‡kw,gnodynok\n\n\"You¤ & xol\" edd zol Jnegå en tɔa iliw dɗs. .IN JAKS bootareban\n\n.godo\n\n་\n\nrebnu hedrow vitamio), Issatgnä ns,[[s¶ no±Io¤ ‚Æ .ïM\n\nmid zabav gntreeqqe swan Tiedt,notnað at .60 ± gradial bloďNTA\n\nbra IIs mottok . ea abrate won amen aix „bisoď ssttto aid no\n\n.DIONTZA.E.H d‡santabau\n\nnonso at Jasblast reiJiTa s no balísa yitasost i[99 .7M\n\njant iroqet e tuoda tug har namItneg eldt Jadt nialquos oj\n\n(sgel hangjaerdt traded atd no bus namted a Bow BloďNTĂ .IM\n\n.sgrans and balash Jasblæst fattira ant „Isɗtí Tot agribosoot\n\nat modneɔ mi soitto e1blɑrinza .IM Joat to tajjam & ĐÀ\n\nB\n\nttata namieð eɗd has softto bio s'.00 $ 'graɗrax hlo:inti .ṣrsaak\n\nmfoaroridaH „A.TH Bi Togenam JN989IQ GAT .hantater need svar\n\n.00 à gradïBI ÞIONNTA Tot zodoeqant Xile piremio) asw ode aanteð\n\nhas ersibmanoqide as esented egzeí s bib .no & haecinais I\n\n-Bib yllsubærg gnied won si doots ziedi .19q39X9Tots [stensg\n\n.aretto yðłavtroqgo as arojabiupti ed‡ yd to heaoq\n\ndeitixa sáð yð batnseer foum vilatutaanu toa si BidT\n\nTeqorq Idszablamoɔ wo mit e1hæstiosi¤ .emit gatibusdoqida\n\nfash of hetilmieq Jon era støjsbłupti odt Hotsw.gnozanoH at\n\nVIST to heaoqalb asw looja „atsiḥnadoqkifa 100 A TORALISTOR\n\n.smil neqat å anino vst sit of azotabiupti add yď vi‡zode\n\nbas siasa syisi a no atmagA notaalmmo 9TOW .00 3 Tallbog D tas ni betasretni yisyrel Stew ye♫T .

Their stocks were considerable at the outbreak of the War and are now being gradually cleared off.\n\n95\n\nThey were Agents for the Rielmers Line, which was in opposition to the Conference.\n\nAt the outbreak of the War an Englishman in their employment, Mr. F. Taylor, advertised himself as a Commission Agent, no doubt with a view to carrying on the firm's business. He was warned by the Hongkong Government and did not proceed further.\n\nIt is reported that the firm is now trying to establish a business in Canton under a Chinese Name.\n\nFume & Reif. This firm was placed in the hands of Messrs. Gibb Livingston & Co. as liquidators. Mr. Bume is an Austrian subject. Mr. Reif, however, has been a naturalized British subject for some 20 years and is resident in Bradford. He is now carrying on his business as usual.\n\nA. Bune. Freight broker. Proceeded to Manila on the outbreak of the war and arranged transfer of certain German ships to the American flag. He is also believed to have helped in coaling and provisioning the German Cruisers then in these waters. He unwisely returned to Hongkong and is now a prisoner of War.\n\nMr. Bune comparatively recently acquired about a half interest in two vessels flying the British flag, viz \"Derawongse\" and \"Phranang\", which were engaged in the local trade. The price paid for each vessel was about £8,000. They have now been sold to a syndicate of Hongkong Chinese for $200,000 (£17,500) each.\n\nCarlowitz & Co. Looked upon as one of the most dangerous firms. Correspondence shows they have information about the movements of the British Fleet shortly before the war and were no doubt in close touch with the German officials. This probably will account for the fact that when war did break out they had comparatively small stocks in Hongkong. These are now being liquidated.\n\nOn the outbreak of hostilities, Mr. Charles Rayner, a former partner, who had retired from the firm for some time", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-430 - Others & Individuals - 1915.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 459702, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-430 - Others & Individuals - 1915", "page_number": 557, "title": "CO129-430 - Others & Individuals - 1915", "content_text": "HONG KONG\n\n24805\n\nC.O.\n\n27805\n\nREG 17 JUN 15\n\nTexas oil business\n\n16 June A signed letter has been received from Mr Heatham of which copy was sent 16.0.

There is no provision against the preparation of chandu in the United Kingdom and consequently opium can be obtained and made into chandu with considerable ease.\n\nUnder present conditions the export of the drug is forbidden but there is no doubt that the ingenuity of the Chinese, who are the chief agents in the trade, enables them to smuggle large quantities out of the country.\n\nThe Conference consider that the following procedure, which is largely based on the recommendations of a Committee appointed to consider what legislation would be required to enforce in the United Kingdom the provisions of the Hague Opium Convention, would be effective. All importers of opium should be required to be licensed in the same way as diamond importers must be licensed at the present time. All wholesale dealers, opium retailers, and manufacturers should also be required to take out a licence. No person other than a licensed importer, dealer, broker, or manufacturer would be permitted to import or deal wholesale with opium.\n\nThe only classes of persons to whom such sale should be permitted should be registered medical practitioners, dentists, pharmacists, persons licensed under the Cruelty to animals Acts and such persons as may be granted by the proper authority a licence to purchase\n\n1\n\nPage 330\n\nPage 331", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-439 - Others - 1916.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 466874, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-440 - Others & Individuals - 1916", "page_number": 456, "title": "CO129-440 - Others & Individuals - 1916", "content_text": "18904/16 #long\n\nathing Compl.

Apart from these subsidised schools, the only Vernacular schools which the Government aids are the 27 Grant Schools. They have an average attendance of 1,600. The Government has, since the Education Ordinance was passed, also inspected the numerous private schools of the Colony, which have very greatly improved under the process.\n\nThere is, however, a strong demand among the Chinese for more Vernacular education for the very poorest class of people. I am of opinion that such provision cannot be conveniently made by the existing machinery. And new machinery must be sought.\n\nIt will not be advisable to create a large number of Government Vernacular Schools. Such schools have been tried in time past and have failed for many reasons. A Government school has to be kept to a standard which need not be looked for in a Chinese-controlled undertaking; and the cost on buildings, equipment, and staff will be very great in proportion to the services rendered. Further, European rigidity acts harshly on poor Chinese, and there are grave objections against employing persons of the stamp of the teachers of such schools as Revenue collectors, while the fees collected would total a trifling sum.\n\nThe Grant Schools, which are managed by the", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-454 - Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1919 [4-6].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 480340, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-455 - Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1919 [7-9]", "page_number": 70, "title": "CO129-455 - Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1919 [7-9]", "content_text": "# TOP T.\n\n(To accompany `Jone.(.)` \n\n68 \n\nto mottca 9dT \n\nenido mi betodast vilenit el zabio Nedw emit JK989rq end of qu rajtam adt ni J nemnisvoð sɛsniño ent \n\nitavatlar od ot bala od \n\n.Tebi \n\n„dzaq sit no Iliw ti Jant estaolbat \n\ned won yam ji jant noijsztido yns to \n\nTM excted biri ad IIiw tejtam ant \n\n.r \n\n•ynolod sir Al SaviTTS ad nadw \n\n..oje svad I \n\n,addu*8 \n\nWENVIE CUA.IO \n\n(.be) \n\n.JNOMNISVOð súr gultataiNimba Teoft10 \n\n## PROPOSED TAXATION OF SALT\n\nThe objections to the proposed taxation of salt in the interests of China are :- \n\n(1) It will not provide Hong Kong with any additional revenue worth mentioning. \n\n(2) It involves an increase of some 250% in the price of a common necessary of life. It is true that the average Chinese consumes but little salt as such and that a special rate has been provided for the salt used in one of his principal articles of diet, salt fish; but, at the same time, it can hardly be doubted that the tax will result in a further increase in the already much enhanced cost of living, and even a few extra \"cash\" daily are a serious matter when the total food-bill for the month is between $4 & $5. \n\n(3) Its effects on the trade of the Colony in general are by no means certain. No provision is made in the Agreement for any special terms to \"pickle factories\" (tseung yuen). There is a considerable number of these in the Colony, and a very substantial export trade is done in various kinds of \"preserved\" produce, in which salt must be an important ingredient. It would be no mean loss if the factories were removed to Macao or Kwong Chau Wan. Further, even the reduced rate may be sufficient to divert much of our fishing fleet to these places. \n\n(4) Macao and Kwong Chau Wan are not the only places to which taxation in Hong Kong might drive our salt-using trades. From enquiries made among the salt-dealers of the Colony, it seems quite clear that salt can be obtained in fairly large quantities along the coast of China between Hong Kong and Swatow at a tax of 40 cents per picul or even tax-free. Taxation in Hong Kong is proposed for the purpose of preventing salt from being smuggled into China.

No information \n\nwas vouchsafed as to what offence I was supposed to have \n\ncommitted, which, seeing that no charge had been made, is \n\nnot surprising. I submit that the procedure at this inves-\n\ntipation was irregular and illegal. I was not allowed to \n\nhear the evidence adduced against me, nor to cross examine \n\nthe witnesses, of whose identity I am even now ignorant, as I \n\nam of the charge or charges preferred against me. I have \n\nreason, however, to believe that among the witnesses against \n\nme were some of those who sat in judgement on me, as well as the man (Chan Pui) against whom I had brought a charge of \n\ncomplicity in the crime,\n\n10. \n\nI submit that not I but the Colonial Government \n\nwas to blame for the loss, in as much that I took every pre-\n\ncaution in my power to guard against loss of public funds, \n\nwhile their refusal to allow the shroff's bond to be increased \n\nto a sum commensurate with monies he had habitually to handle, \n\ntogether with their disregard of my protests against the ap-\n\npointment of the dishonest accountant, rendered my efforts \n\nnugatory. The system which was at that time in force, of re-\n\nquiring each Government servant who handled public money to \n\nfind security for a sum exceeding any which would ordinarily \n\nbe in his possession, was apparently relied upon, to the ex-\n\nclusion of other safeguards, to protect the Government, and I \n\nsubmit that it was through no default of mine that the system \n\nwas abandoned in this case, but entirely through their own \n\nfault in failing to take my advice in the matter.\n\n11. Now Chan Pui (who, I discovered on returning from \n\nleave in 1912, had been promoted to a higher salaried post in \n\nthe Colonial service, presumably as a reward for his actions) \n\nhas himself absconded with a very much larger sum of public \n\nmoney (about ten times as much as he assisted Van Hau Nam \n\nto steal), and, having been apprehended, has been tried and \n\nconvicted.

If for any reason this arrangement is impracticable the aerial could be supported from a triatio stay slung between the two existing masts so that the apex of the triangular aerials would be about 70 ft. from the ground but it would then be necessary to make special arrangements to ensure that the transmitting aerial is insulated from earth whilst the Direction Finder is in use.\n\nOur Price to the Crown Agents for a Complete Set of Apparatus as detailed in the Schedule would be £450.0.0.

At that time it was pointed out that, since the Colonial Government's interest in China companies was (and still is) preponderantly as yielding income, cordial co-operation in our effort to make such companies genuinely British could \n\nscarcely be looked for. \n\nThe Colonial Office steadfastly upheld the Colony in its refusal to part with a source of revenue; and the British authorities in China finally accepted the compromise embodied in the Order together with a promise that in case a few years' working showed the control enacted to be ineffectual, the Order should be amended. \n\nApart from the theoretical objection recorded by the Crown Advocate the proposal to have an independent registry for China companies was rejected partly because of a fear (since proved unfounded), that a large and costly office organization would be essential and partly because English practice permitted, as such cases as those of the Anglo-Austrian Bank and the Austrian Export and Import Company, Limited, showed, of British companies as completely alien as the Hongkong practice had allowed. \n\nThe terms embodied in the 1919 Order were in 1917 discussed with His Majesty's Judge because it was found by experience that the existing control was not in fact adequate. The wording seems to have been misunderstood by many other than Americans. There is no prohibition of the employment of alien experts as technical managers or in any other important position, provided that such alien does not in fact exercise the general or substantial control of the company's working usually associated with the office of managing director. I venture to suggest that this fact provides such relief as is essential to the British-American Tobacco Company while securing adequate control for our authorities. \n\nThe enactment as to the seat of the directorate not being in itself sufficient to withdraw a company from the provisions", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-462 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1920 [7-10].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 484464, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-462 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1920 [7-10]", "page_number": 326, "title": "CO129-462 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1920 [7-10]", "content_text": "Page 16\n\nwat ol of ber sver em sonuce dedd mor?

Should this application be approved, the applicant will receive half pay, during his absence, and a certificate entitling him to a return passage to the Colony within the period specified; subject to his passing a satisfactory Medical Examination about three months before the expiration of his leave as to his fitness to return to a tropical climate.\n\n3. The Applicant shall enter into a bond for the refund of the half pay, or the difference between his pension and half pay as the case may be, drawn after his leaving the Colonies, unless he does not return at the period specified.\n\n4. The period may nevertheless be extended by the Secretary of State for the Colonies, on such ground as may to him be satisfactory, and such extension shall be deemed to be leave originally granted within the meaning of the above Sections 1, 2, and 3, anything therein contained to the contrary notwithstanding.\n\n5. Such leave shall enable the applicant to count his previous service as regards the time of service acquired before a pension is granted, and each period of two months on leave shall count as one month's service towards the computation of a pension.\n\n6. On the Applicant's return to the Colony, he shall be reinstated in his relative position in the Force, and he will be sworn in for a further period of five years' service under §§ 8 and 13 of Ordinance 11 of 1900.\n\n7. If at the expiration of five years' service leave is refused on the ground that the Applicant's service cannot then be spared, he shall be allowed leave at the earliest suitable date, and the time elapsing between the expiration of the above mentioned five years' service and the date of his going on leave, shall be calculated towards the period of five years' service to be served by him on his return from such leave. If the time of year at which a period of five years' service expires is on consideration of health unsuitable for leave to be taken, the Applicant may, by permission, go on leave at any time within six months from such expiration of service, and this interval shall count towards his next period of five years' service.\n\n8. The period of time spent on leave will not count towards the calculation of time constituting any term of five years' service for bonus or passage.\n\nNote:-Under Section 2 he is entitled to a return passage, 2nd class, per Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's Mail Steamer at the cost of the Colony, subject to his passing a satisfactory Medical Examination about 3 months before the expiration of his leave as to his fitness to return to a tropical climate. He is also entitled to 2nd class return passage as above for his wife and children, not exceeding four persons besides himself.\n\n1", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-475 - Governor Sir Stubbs & Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1922 [5-7].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 492928, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-476 - Acting Governor Claud Severn & Governor Sir Stubbs - 1922 [8-12]", "page_number": 281, "title": "CO129-476 - Acting Governor Claud Severn & Governor Sir Stubbs - 1922 [8-12]", "content_text": "MINUTES.\n\nMINUTES NOT TO\n\nON THIS\n\nBE WRITTEN\n\nSIDE.\n\nJur.

Furthermore, it is indisputable that if the Inspector-General were left to face the Chinese Government—his own employers—without the support of the Diplomatic Body behind him, he would soon cease to exercise any influence over the disposal of the customs releases.”\n\n67. From that date releases of customs surplus have followed one another more or less automatically, always with the allocation of the 137 per cent. to the South, but in May 1920 a complication arose. By that month the Southern Military Government at Canton had collapsed, and the chief leaders of the party, Messrs. Sun Yat Sen, Tang Shao-yi and Dr. Wu Ting-fang had fled from Canton to Shanghai. At the suggestion of Sir B. Alston the last quota of customs revenue allotted to them—548,000 taels—was deposited with the Inspector-General of Customs till further notice: and subsequent allocations to the South have been similarly handled.\n\n68. This has led to a series of protests both by the Canton authorities and by the ex-Southern Military Government (Tang Shao-yi, Sun Yat Sen, Wu Ting-fang); for some time these had no effect, but at one moment some of the foreign representatives, principally M. Boppe, French Minister and dean of the Diplomatic Body, began to show signs of indecision. M. Boppe was swayed by a desire to propitiate the South as Sept. 22, 1920, neighbours of French Indo-China. He even suggested at one moment that the Southern allocation should be divided up amongst the various warring factions into which the Southern party had split. But wiser counsels prevailed, and, thanks largely to the firm stand taken by Mr. Clive, His Majesty's Chargé d'Affaires, it was eventually decided to continue to withhold all payments from the South and continue depositing them with Sir F. Aglen.\n\n[P9005, 07/\n\n10.3\n\nThis\n\n69. When, in the autumn of 1920, Messrs. Tang Shao-yi, Sun Yat Sen and Wu Ting-fang returned to Canton and re-established themselves as a Southern Government, they sought to revert to the original arrangement and obtain possession of the Southern 137 per cent. of the releases, past and future. But, as they were held by the Diplomatic Body to have no following, their request has been ignored has led to yet a third threat to seize the Southern customs, a threat countered by the immediate intimation of the imminent application of the same counter-measures as contemplated in 1917 and 1918. As in both those years, this intimation has proved sufficient and no attempt has actually been made to interfere with the Customs administration or funds at the Southern ports.\n\n70. According to most recent reports from His Majesty's Legation, the Southern Government are becoming more and more discredited. But, in any case, the question of the allocation of future surplus customs revenue is likely to solve itself. Owing to dropping customs receipts and a heavy fall in silver, customs surplus has now dwindled to a minimum, and there is thus little likelihood of the problem of its disposal arising again in future. As regards the arrears of Southern allocations since May 1920, these have remained in suspense on deposit with Sir F. Aglen until a few days ago, when, with the unanimous consent of the Diplomatic Body, they have been handed over to the Central Government on condition that these funds are devoted to specific objects, such as payment of diplomatic and consular salaries abroad, from which both North and South draw benefit.\n\n71. When, in February last, the American Government, through their Embassy in London, sought to reopen the whole question of the control of these funds by the Diplomatic Body, and appeared to wish to challenge the status of the foreign representatives at Peking to exercise any further restraint upon the disposal of the customs revenue, they were informed that it seemed to us inopportune, in the real interests of the Chinese people, to modify the existing arrangements, which in practice were working well and equitably.\n\nMarch 31, 1921.\n\n[F396/246/10]\n\nAPPENDIX II.\n\nMemorandum on British Educational Policy in China,\n\nImportance of the Question.\n\nA PERIOD has commenced in China which may be compared to the 1853-1889 period in Japan, and more remotely to the 1453-1595 period in Europe—a period of renaissance. The medieval organisation of the country is being transformed by an influx of occidental knowledge. The choice and adaptation of such knowledge to China's needs is therefore the most critical question of the times for China herself; and, further, if during the next fifty or hundred years a united China, a country of 400,000,000 people, were to take a decisive step in the direction of Bolshevism or Christianity, or industrialism, or militarism, or pan-Asianism, a change of paramount importance would be effected in the world's history. It is unlikely that China, still amorphous and aloof, will take any such decisive step, as Japan did in 1868: but before dealing with Chinese education as a matter of commercial or political propaganda, it is as well to reflect on the scope and power of the forces which are being called into existence.\n\nWestern education has been propagated in China through two channels: (1) through Chinese who have gone abroad for their studies, mostly to America; (2) through Western educationalists, almost all missionaries, who, for philanthropic By far the greater and religious motives, have devoted themselves to this work. proportion of these are Americans. In fact, Sir J. Jordan (despatch No. 348 of the 23rd July, 1918) states that fully 70 per cent. of the whole foreign education of China is in American hands.\n\nThere is a growing chorus of opinion, coming from those educationalists, business men and China experts, who are best qualified to judge, that the time has come when (1) a more definite policy of education for Chinese along British lines should be initiated, (2) voluntary missionary effort should be supplemented and reinforced by a solid endowment, dedicated to this purpose.\n\nin\n\nMr. Wilton, in his comprehensive report on the subject, enclosed Sir J. Jordan's despatch No. 348 of the 23rd July, 1918, points out three aspects under which the question can be viewed—political, commercial and moral. It is on the second of these considerations that he lays special stress, as offering the most certain return for our outlay. He says: Assuming that China will become an expanding market for British goods, the spread of the English language and British methods in technical and commercial schools in China can hardly, I think, be over-estimated. There would be a distinct tendency, if not even a certainty, for young Chinese, speaking English, accustomed to British machinery, weights, measures and goods, and imbued with British ideas, to promote British enterprises in China. Quite apart from any question of personal sympathies, their mental equipment would make it difficult for them to work with others than Englishmen or Americans.'\n\nFor practical purposes, therefore, the commercial aspect should have first consideration; and the first question, which should confront every suggestion for a Government-supported educational scheme in China, is, Will it pay?\n\n>\n\nThe following quotation from the \"United States Commercial Handbook of China (vol. II. p. 420) gives some idea of the commercial and industrial future of the country:\n\nChina is the most populous of Asiatic nations: its trade offers more opportunities than does that of any of the other Far Eastern countries. It is now at the threshold of modern industrialism. Its 6,500 miles of railways must expand to 250,000 miles if it would have a mileage equal to that of the United States; it has a territory one-quarter again as great. Its cotton spindles must increase from 1,500,000 to 50,000,000, its looms from 5,000 to 800,000 and its textile-mill operatives from 20,000 to several million to equal those of England, which is poorer in potentialities in this industry than is China. Its cotton must increase from 2,500,000 to 12,000,000 bales to equal the United The output States, yet it has the land and labour necessary for this increase. of its coal mines must expand from 15,000,000 tons a year to 700,000,000 tons,\n\n[6823]\n\n337", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-478 - Public Offices & Others - 1922.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 494868, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-479 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1923 [1-3]", "page_number": 413, "title": "CO129-479 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1923 [1-3]", "content_text": "Page 408\n\nM\n\nSea\n\n18815\n\nH*T*\n\n] 159A0]A EL·\n\n123]\n\nS KOAO] AGLE' 500 Lonug&' \n\n320 Lom:qa\n\n08000\n\nToo Longa ¡GAUJAOL STUFFTON® Jolye\n\nH*T* e wfpe\n\nI jjunzel biafoj •\n\nJAS))\n\n-\n\n૩૬ Drapele\n\n7400 Lanug@*\n\n2 2 ¶ ♬ geao] Aela's \"angela'\n\n0300-0\n\n•\n\nBLOGŢgenf C]]* 10*15*CS* Ten гo!

Pass regulations have also been drawn up\n\nand these and the traffic regulations have been adopted by\n\nthe French Municipal Council. Pass regulations are designed\n\nto produce three effects:\n\n1. To give the police the necessary facility for pre-\n\nventing illicit traffic in passes and excluding undesirable\n\npersons after the gates are closed:\n\n2. To make the use of the passes as unrestrictive as\n\npossible to those entitled to them.\n\n3. To afford our Chinese employes an automatic iden-\n\ntification in case of conscription of labour in the city.\n\nIn all these three efforts we feel that we can rely\n\non the moral support of the Canton authorities. It is our\n\nintention to bring these regulations into force a fitting\n\ntime after publication and to give the necessary publicity.\n\nI venture to remind you that there is still a dis-\n\ncontented vein throughout the Chinese Press as to the\n\nCouncil's intentions, which I hope are now explained.\n\nI assure you that none of the Chinese newspaper representati-\n\nves have troubled to seek the correct information from your\n\nCouncil.\n\nI can\n\nIt must be borne in mind that the Shameen population\n\nhas increased considerably since the existing police regula-\n\ntions were published and that the advent of the new Shakee\n\nRoad, which, I am informed, will probably be finished this\n\nPage 365", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 501354, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925", "page_number": 381, "title": "CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925", "content_text": "1.8\n\n!\n\nBAD SESILLID to recall 9GTI VIÐV * bike Tolyat .TMM\n\n¿ iste aufl minčiau atan basileus ob et bæial eut acot9, nglerot súd zoti babasi risque naq seauidu to redzam syrA : .bu.IzI end of m nand UK hermes odai yri91 MOTî navĽA IN abrvon cheminiu ant de tre navic nit de zaeninud her verdt TI JABLOT BIR eru od #unitmo hivow yard 9... 11 (DeiausÛ-ILE KO .M.A.H!\n\nVe Beentrad\n\nmerd oor o♪ beltline Vilemstre -ong ilaw year „den even yend 21 nevá :roly?

This Regulation stated: \"After 9 p.m. none but foreign residents and visitors are allowed to enter or leave Shameen without the Police permit.

It was leased to the British and French Governments, and as such it was the private property of these two Governments. It was not a public place where everyone had the right to come and go. It was for the Council to make regulations to regulate traffic on Shameen.\n\nThe Chairman of the Municipal Council, referring to Rule 7 and Rule 15, said that people having business on the Shameen could go to their place of business by the shortest route.\n\nMr. Taylor asked what about people having business at certain foreign wharves down the river.\n\nH.B.M. Consul-General: Why do they want to come on the Shameen?\n\nMr. Taylor said there were a large number of Chinese who before going to the foreign wharves had to visit the ship-", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 501480, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925", "page_number": 507, "title": "CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925", "content_text": "Page 21\n\nMAKSU no 89ohto sub-hanted 29 10 were yd bermed er vikazanem va „udio and or muter of mosmia zo husi of li yak? bo pram 2 de contrad en\n\n* i. *C pel Cut ted yor birour I haBIDI 9.” .ITKTOT TAA 10? strars prerre mesta gder of *hersee 24 kuv k av pov 11 :[e~anabe_1:20 .M.8.H hair of side el Joi [It» voy,qalbS, IT, .CO%ed ZİYMƏT DIN mold!\n\n... !... 4 SI SUOIPMA ISHLASIX .ake Nu [a] gat ze brenicud gatu Ladpennantwadi 4.0 yd amidanidae 14. neo vedt,pay ;feren8d-Luan M.8.H TEL. 94 20 desgn of satiet verem Te to on HİNT JRAT\" „ültsen 94* C* .On Zoiduionen Juq Isr9190-IVA.IO.\n\ne and anoidoma proy qeted to suiteski Derenso Lelber I ɛnolvafprall time. 951109 9 bm oftent 9:4 brandt Lushi huvil neste 15 ant od bexanne avsl-syd art of var Itu lumen erit ni bedad en toette exet of ana. .ncatom and dentes, saltov zuei,be trans n' Jak een lenogong Jian erT Vi som ton ch boy 20 -rad Jansenia.

Mr. Tope asked if it was the intention of the Council to provide an armoury for the Island for the police, or whether it was the intention to have the police regularly armed, whilst they were on police duty.\n\nThe Chairman of the Municipal Council: It is the intention that the police will be regularly armed,\n\nDr. Reynolds asked what percentage had any experience of fire arms.\n\nThe Chairman of the Municipal Council: I think about 4 per cent.\n\nDr. Reynolds contended that the armed constables would be a danger to the public. He instanced an occasion when some Chinese, practising at a target some seven yards distant, failed to hit the target. He thought that half a dozen additional constables trained in the use of fire arms would be much more suitable.\n\nH.B.M. Consul-General mentioned that an amendment had been handed in which, in a measure, covered Dr. Reynold's suggestion.\n\nThe Chairman of the Municipal Council said that there were no facilities for the training of their present staff of constables in the use of fire-arms.\n\nMr. Kitching thought they could be trained. There was a place behind the Russian Consulate where they could be trained. The plates were still lying there.\n\nMr. Hogg asked, in the event of the resolution being passed, if it was the intention of the Council to employ men who were competent in the use of fire-arms.

The negotiations were at first conducted on the Chinese side by a number of Labour Union leaders, not one of whom\n\nNone of had any connection with the Shameen employees. The latter put in an appearance during the course of the negotiations, nor were they consulted as to terms; reports were made to C. C. Tu, and his instructions were taken daily. When discussions were initiated through Eugene Chen, the settlement which all desired was repeatedly wrecked in spite of Dr. Sun's instructions. Meanwhile, employees who attempted to return to work were either prevented by intimidation or badly beaten if they persisted; and when, largely owing to the growing restlessness of the Chinese mercantile community (chiefly the silk dealers who were threatened with ruin owing to the continuance of the strike), as well as of the Shameen employees, a settlement was reached despite the extremists, the latter immediately attempted to start another so-called \"strike\". With very few exceptions, however, the employees, who had suffered considerable hardships during the first strike, flatly refused to leave their work again. In other words, the object was to bring the foreign community to its knees, and the sudden withdrawal of all their domestic servants and office staffs suggested itself as the obvious means of doing so. In a mass meeting of the residents of Shameen called by my French colleague and myself during the course of the strike to give them information as to the progress of the discussions, I emphasised that, though the outstanding points at issue", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 501657, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925", "page_number": 684, "title": "CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925", "content_text": "in the term \n\nWI, BAT VLAUTUST \n\n.291003 E \n\n674 \n\n- \n\n59% við sj¡beiwonias OF THONGA sad ovení I \n\n83 \n\nOMIJIU NJO€ aứ 10 5.0. mtgeled quoy 10 \n\nVA 101,stgjā io vietor396 23 10 1 lasted no \n\nKOLMIRIAMOVI yalabon: Funnyneris u albtager \n\nDİSİSƏ glodyne.. io SnoARYTOVOD Bad Ishiwatache \n\noqtur filt nol yamom lo anwa niedres studitino 3 \n\nQuincetonpa eit at børeteamed meos\" geltsines \n\nvigen ni bar, ̧æð (ed revÌH (268) #nd al voertQ \n\nBwo[[0] PA SINTÉ \n\nMATTA BNJ #yesi nori bentudat I na nooɑ où \n\n* \n\n+ \n\nBDIJON VE IBDA) HO#3 noijzeup mi dana \n\nsta ed son blvora Jrismiraqza sih grm HOBART ON \n\n**Oq*%ą 91% 101 yonon ybser to Aɔml of gniwo,68 \n\neu bivoo ex9.9 Božiuque Lilie isoɔ yntasnowg Is \n\nAMİNST#0000 Visvispells seenind sat to Jósąsota no fostaq tavin. den: elysertam ali. 17kw basal no \n\nC \n\n· \n\nTOJBW Brið \n\niTts vlf KISHËRIT MOqyelet sið bæer I 11 2 noierarqit and rebnu ad of rasɗqe bilow BOITTO \n\nDe 10kJibrosno ne nĴORIES ŠIEMETER Voð greign0H BILJ \n\nLG BUAT BAT ve nistened ezenido atadred of ybindun \n\n2 91913 Bned Bid Jon et rispl •LOPISN 730 000.81# \n\nhat mimone jaszəng da,#21-in tu istokoz ano vino \n\n(THTRİDİM Pİydratex mi \n\nwith, or prepared to undertake active operation against pirates and bandits in the delta, and men on information received, he contemplates an expedition against them he submits his plans to the British Senior Naval Officer.

December 9th last, for instance, the first piratical expedition was arranged, after discussion with the British Naval Authorities and the Captain Superintendent of Police Hongkong, and it was agreed that, \n\nwhilst the Chinese troops should attack the pirate lairs on shore, His Majesty's vessels should stand by and cut off any fugitives attempting to retreat, \n\nby water. It was calculated that the Chinese launch- \n\nen conveying troops and assisting in the attack would require a given amount of coal and other supplies, and a sum of $5000 was accordingly handed over. The balance of the first allocation has since been similarly spent and it remains to be considered if results obtained are such as to justify an extension of the grant in aid, I personally am in favour of its continuance, as the total number of pirates thus accounted for during the December quarter was 166 \n\nand the return up to January 15th is forty.

The Consul-General did not\n\ntake the offer very seriously and the proposal was dropped.\n\nThe incident is of interest as suggesting that Dr. Sun\n\nhad not created his military academy under Bolshevik\n\ninfluence). The defeat of the Yunnanese increased the\n\npopularity of the Russians very considerably and gave them a\n\nmuch eurer footing in the provincial administration,\n\nMoreover, their renunciation of their rights as Europeans in\n\nChina, their condemnation of the unequal treaties' and their\n\ntreatment of the Chinamen as equal were very flattering to\n\nChinese self-esteem and tended to increase the respect in\n\nwhich they were held by the Cantonese and to strengthen their\n\npolitical influence at Canton. This is reflected in the\n\nimposition of certain irregular tariffe at Canton even\n\nbefore the Hay disturbances. In flat disregard of all\n\nexisting treaties an illegal tax was imposed on oil and\n\nflour with the obvious intention of affirming China's\n\nindependence in the matter of tariffs and her rejection of the\n\nexisting 'unequal treaties'. The Shanghai riots were\n\nfollowed by a sympathetic strike in Canton. It was not a\n\nbig affair, the resources at the disposal of the strikers\n\nwere alender, and in all probability there would have been\n\nan early return to normal conditions but for the\n\nunfortunate incident at Shameen on the 23rd June, when some\n\nChinese troops in a big procession wantonly fired on the\n\nBritish Concession, killing a French subject. The fire was\n\nimmediately returned and numerous casualties were inflicted\n\namong the Chinese. The strike now took on a new lease of\n\nlife. Funds began to pour in from all quarters and in a\n\nshort time a powerful strike committee assumed partial control of the functions of the National Government of Canton.\n\nrl\n\ncade\n\nreas.\n\nVar", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-497 - Public Offices - 1926.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 505963, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-498-12 Recommendations to strengthen defences against overseas attack 17-2-1926 - 17-2-1926", "page_number": 28, "title": "CO129-498-12 Recommendations to strengthen defences against overseas attack 17-2-1926 - 17-2-1926", "content_text": "(Folio No. 3026, Nacao to Pedro)\nSerial I 100, including \nHọng xong.\nConsecutiva No. J Tri 4\nConsecutiva 3. -Suez Juok in JUTPOTOKE 'Gott \n3026, co to Padi 2-1.\nFolio Io.

Thus the meeting is held for a double purpose, to welcome and to celebrate. I am sorry I am not worthy of your welcome.\n\nAs to the celebration of the elimination of the rebellious Communists, you officers and soldiers of various armies have bravely fought against the rebels and expelled the rebellious Communist troops of Ip and Ho. It is a matter to rejoice about. It may be calculated as the victory of our masses and success of our Revolutionists.\n\nWe are opening a conference here to-day. What can we do for our armed revolutionary comrades who have suppressed the rebellious troops? I should ask all of you to think of it. Hereafter we should continue the revolutionary spirit of our armed comrades and suppress all bad elements. It is a grave responsibility for us. On my return here I desire to discuss with you how to save our Kuomintang, how to rule our troops and nation through our Party, and how to bring all influence and power under the control of our Kuomintang.\n\nNow our Kuomintang has been reduced to destruction.

Nine out of the ten candidates passed and five of them have been recommended by the Board of the Faculty for honours.\n\nMr. Lim Ko who graduated in 1927 was awarded First Class Honours by the London Assessor, Professor S. M. Dixon, who commented very favourably on the standard of his work.\n\nProfessor C. A. Middleton Smith returned from leave in March and Messrs. A. H. Fenwick and I. Day were absent on long leave from April to the end of the session. The Board of the Faculty is much indebted to Mr. S. V. Boxer for his valuable assistance during Mr. Fenwick's absence.\n\nMr. Yue Shui Chiu, Demonstrator in Civil Engineering, resigned his appointment in December to join the staff of the Kwangsi Mineral Land Survey as Chief Surveyor. His departure is a serious loss to the Department of Civil Engineering and yet it is gratifying to know that he is engaged in the sort of work which we particularly have in view for our Chinese graduates.\n\nThe question of attracting more students, especially in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, has again been given considerable attention. The chief difficulty lies in combining the practical training with the theoretical and this partly accounts for the dearth of students in these two branches of engineering.\n\nAt the request of the Council, Professor M. H. Roffey, during the summer vacation, paid a visit to Malaya to investigate on the spot the problem of employment for our graduates and further to seek an explanation for the lack of engineering students from the Straits. There is no doubt his efforts will bear fruit in due course.\n\nThe graduates of 1927 have on the whole found little difficulty in securing employment. The following statement as to how they are being employed is not without interest :-\n\nCIVIL ENGINEERS.\n\nLim Ko..... Iau Tsung Kya...... Yih Chong Kung.\n\nI. Jacob...... Tang Sze Wing........ Mak Chun Poy.....\n\nLim Pck Tiong..... Chan U Kin...................\n\nAssistant Engineer, F.M.S. Railways.\n\nSurveyors, Sarawak Oilfields, Borneo.\n\nMessrs. Palmer & Turner, Shanghai. Harbour Works, Hoihow.\n\nCivil Engineer, Hok Shan.\n\nELECTRICAL ENGINEERS,\n\nMill Engineer-Java.\n\nStudent apprentice with the British Thomson-Houston firm-Rugby, England.\n\nMECHANICAL ENGINEERS.\n\nHung Huai Chen...... Student apprentice with the British Thomson-Houston Co., Ltd., Rugby.\n\nYao Erh Kang.........

It will be remembered that in the memorandum of Mr. Choy, which formed an enclosure to Foreign Office despatch No. 726 of 20th July, 1939, to the Legation, great emphasis was laid on the vital importance of maintaining a rapid train service between Canton and Hongkong. It was argued, and probably correctly, that only in this way could the railway successfully compete with steamers. Nevertheless, owing to the lack of provision of new sleepers it was found necessary on the 25th June to reduce speed on sections of the line from thirty to twenty miles per hour.

In fact, nearly half have come from homes in various parts of the British Empire, so that, while for all practicable purposes here there is no difference, it is nonetheless suitable to remember this fact in comparison with the numbers of Chinese students in other countries. (Since it is perhaps of interest to make some such comparisons, let me digress for a moment to give you the figures in other countries: Japan 2,500, U.S.A. 2,000, France 1,500, Germany 300. These figures are some which have been computed with the help of a publication by the World's Chinese Students Federation, with the exception of the figure for Japan, which is the estimate of the Chinese Educational Commissioner in Japan. I must say myself, however, that I should have placed them all, but especially the figure for U.S.A., considerably higher.) You will see, therefore, that the number of Chinese students in Great Britain is comparatively small.\n\nIn the second classification, you will note that a good 60 per cent. of the total have London as a headquarters. The obvious facilities of London as an international centre probably account for the large number, though the fact that London is the port of arrival of most, and also the fact that there are plenty of Chinese restaurants in London, must play important contributory parts. The first five in this classification are what we call the regular \"Centres\"; Oxford and Cambridge where one gets the so-called 'varsity type together with one or two research students, Edinburgh with its large quota of medical students, and Manchester where most of the Chinese students study either textiles or electrical engineering.\n\nIn the third classification, there are two main types to be noted, the first being the 70 odd studying Social, Economic, and Political Sciences, virtually all of whom come from China, and many of whom are postgraduates and attending lectures in the London School of Economics; the second type are the 60 or so reading Law, virtually all coming...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-531-10 Hong Kong University- encouragement of Chinese students to counteract American influence 30-5-1931 - 1-9-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 530455, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-534-2 Correspondence and reports of Salarie's Report Anomalies Committee 22-1-1931 - 13-7-1932", "page_number": 2, "title": "CO129-534-2 Correspondence and reports of Salarie's Report Anomalies Committee 22-1-1931 - 13-7-1932", "content_text": "## Gosv.

Moreover, the edict of March 31st, 1924, contains a series of provisions which are in the main very judicious. Some are intended to ensure the proper treatment of persons in a state of slavery, whereas the object of others is to free a large number of slaves progressively. This edict also prohibits the transfer of slaves, with or without payment, and grants to any persons so transferred the right to freedom. The road to enfranchisement was still further widened by an edict of July 15th, 1931, which further inflicts the same penalties on any person who hands over a slave, with or without payment—as on slave-raiders.\n\nIf we may judge from the documents supplied by the Abyssinian Government, judicial decisions between 1924 and 1930 have resulted in the liberation of hundreds of slaves by the application of the 1924 Edict. Moreover, a very large number of persons have been sentenced for offences against the law prohibiting the purchase and sale of slaves. These sentences and orders for the liberation of slaves have, however, been mainly pronounced by the Addis Ababa court; the provisions of the edicts are less frequently applied in the rest of the Empire, although the number of slaves liberated and sentences imposed is fairly large.\n\n9. It would be unfair to the Abyssinian Government to take exception to the fact that it has not yet abolished the status of slavery.\n\nIn dealing with Abyssinia, it must never be forgotten that that country was for two centuries cut off from the outside world, that its evolution has been retarded, and that all matters concerning it cannot be judged by the principles governing European nations. Moreover, although Abyssinia signed the 1926 Convention, she has not ratified it. Even if she had done so, she would only have been bound, under the actual terms of the Convention, to abolish slavery gradually. All that the contracting parties can demand of her is to make every effort to abolish slavery as soon as possible.\n\nEvery measure for the liberation of slaves, however, is opposed in Abyssinia by a barrier of ancient traditions. Very many officers of the Empire, including powerful chiefs, are against the abolition of slavery, either simply because they espouse the feelings of the people under their jurisdiction or because they themselves derive benefit from the present situation.\n\nThere is surely no need to point to the dangers to which the maintenance of the Government's authority would be exposed, or at all events the political disturbances with which it might be faced, if, contrary to the general feeling and despite the interests which it might harm, it proceeded to abolish the status of slavery too rapidly.\n\nEven supposing that, after abolishing the status of slavery, the Abyssinian Government were able to counteract these dangers in the political sphere, a measure which suddenly transferred vast numbers of persons from the condition of slavery to one of full freedom (as regards the number of the slaves, the Committee has no accurate information) might produce disastrous results in the social and economic fields. Doubtless this consideration played some part in the decision of the Abyssinian Government to refrain from abolishing slavery by a stroke of the pen. It gave as one of the reasons for its Edict of 1924 that, by adopting such a measure, the number of thieves, bandits and criminals would be greatly increased.\n\nIt must also be admitted that the mass liberation of slaves would have a considerable effect on the finances of Abyssinia, in that the Government might find itself bound to compensate the former owners, or take steps to ensure that freed slaves were in a position to gain a living, or, lastly, to support those who, owing to age or infirmity, were permanently incapable of earning their own livelihood, for which their master had usually provided until their death.\n\nIn short, conditions in Abyssinia make it impossible for the Government, however desirous it may be of abolishing slavery, to do otherwise than advance gradually along this path. If the Government ignored this policy of prudence, it might stir up political, social, economic and financial difficulties which would completely nullify the success already achieved.\n\nTrue, other States, previously referred to, have abolished slavery overnight—in fact as well as in law. But, without in any way underestimating the gravity of the dangers they have incurred and the sacrifices they have made, it is doubtful whether the application of this generous reform was beset with difficulties as great as are encountered in Abyssinia.\n\nIn this connection, the French expert stresses the fact that, in his opinion, it would be neither fair nor in accordance with the actual facts to describe as slaves all persons under servitude reported to exist in Abyssinia. Such servitude constitutes a special social status—serfdom—the characteristics of which, as understood by him, the French expert describes in Chapter VI.\n\nIO. The abolition of the status of slavery in the Moslem States and Sultanates referred to in paragraph 2 of the present report meets with the difficulty that its legality is upheld, not only by long-standing tradition, but also by religion—though these obstacles to abolition are not insurmountable.\n\nThe higher authorities of these countries cannot be said to be really hostile to the campaign against the institution of slavery, but they have in any case to reckon with public opinion, and often their power is not sufficient to allow them to initiate reform. For that reason, the United Kingdom's efforts to obtain from the King of the Hejaz and from the small States of Arabia, through the political agents she has placed there, an undertaking to abolish slavery have not yet brought about the desired results.\n\nII. In the absence of precise information, the Committee cannot express any opinion as to the manner in which slaves are treated in countries in which slavery still exists either in law or in fact. The general impression is that, on the whole, their lot is not an unhappy one from the material point of view. In any case, in the countries administered by Powers with western ideas acts affecting their rights are no longer tolerated; in particular, such abominable practices as human sacrifice, to which one or other class of slaves was sometimes victim in certain of these territories, are now no more than a memory.\n\nIn Abyssinia, according to information obtained by the Committee, slaves are generally well treated.\n\nAs regards the Moslem States, the information furnished to the Committee is divergent.\n\n12. The Committee has received a considerable number of documents regarding the situation of women and children in certain countries, a situation which is described as slavery in these documents. After all due consideration, the Committee arrived at the conclusion that, apart from questions which have a real bearing on slavery in the true sense of the word and which the Committee has taken into account in its report and suggestions, these documents refer to conditions which are not slavery in the technical sense of the term. They relate to abuses in the exercise of authority by husbands, fathers or employers, similar to those which may occur in a civilised state, or, at any rate, in one which has abolished the institution of slavery in fact as well as in law. On the other hand, they contain information on the subject of \"Mui Tsai\", will be dealt with later.\n\nB. Suggestions.\n\n13. Clearly the abolition, not only of the legal status of slavery, but also actual liberation are the essential objects at which Governments should aim in the territories in which slavery still exists. Not only can we not admit that human beings should be regarded as chattels, but, unless the practice of possessing slaves disappears, an end will never be put to the often abominable acts by which slaves are procured—in particular, slave-raids and the slave trade.\n\nWe realise the reasons which may have led certain Governments to decide not to separate the slaves from their so-called owners, but to wait until evolution brings about the liberation of slaves in practice. Nevertheless, this evolution should be hastened as far as possible. It would therefore be advisable to make it an offence for a person who is aware of the abolition of the legal status of slavery to avail himself of the fact that another person is ignorant of such abolition, in order to enforce a right of ownership or any analogous right over the latter person. All Governments should even consider the desirability of taking steps to spread among the populations they govern a knowledge of the fact that their freedom is guaranteed by law.\n\n14. The foregoing statement regarding the special situation in Abyssinia shows that it is at present impossible for the Abyssinian Government to abolish slavery by a stroke of the pen and that it is necessary that the Government should only advance by stages. The Committee's suggestions as regards this country will therefore be restricted to the steps which might be taken to carry out this policy.\n\n(a) The first step which may be suggested would be to aid the Abyssinian Government in combating slavery, should the latter make a definite request to this effect—in particular, in the form of financial assistance which would not interfere in any way with the independence of the country.\n\n(3) The main objective, however, should be to make the Abyssinians themselves realise fully the reprehensible character of slavery and the merit of spontaneous acts of liberation. Though laws may help to transform customs, the laws themselves are only fully applied if, in their conception, they reflect the sentiments of the general mass. It would appear that great progress has been made in this direction.\n\nThe Government will doubtless succeed in creating the necessary atmosphere if it obtains the assistance of the Abyssinian clergy. If it is true that the Abyssinian clergy themselves possess slaves, they should take the lead in applying the first of the suggestions put forward in the 1925 report of the Temporary Commission for the abolition of slavery in Abyssinia—namely, that they should set the example by freeing their own slaves.\n\nOther steps might be taken to stimulate the awakening in Abyssinian public opinion of a spirit favourable to the suppression of slavery. The Government might, for instance, bestow rewards on those who voluntarily free their slaves.\n\nFurthermore, it is certain that, if public opinion in all countries paid constant attention to the slavery question, the Abyssinian people would realise that no country can be regarded as fully civilised while it continues to tolerate slavery. This is the idea which has partly inspired the suggestion, made in paragraph 74 of the present report, for the establishment of a Permanent Commission.\n\n(c) As an interim measure to supplement the provisions of the 1924 Edict, the Temporary Commission recommended that all owners of slaves should be obliged to register their slaves within a given time limit, and that any slaves who on the expiry of the time limit had not been so registered should be freed. The present Committee cannot but endorse this proposal, but would point out that liberation should not be restricted to slaves who have not been registered after a certain time limit. Those slaves whose master when applying for their registration is unable to prove that he acquired them by legally authorised means should also be liberated. Severe penalties should be imposed on persons owning slaves who have not been registered,\n\n(d) The Temporary Commission recommended as another transitory method the abolition of the status of slavery, with the reservation that former slaves thus legally freed would be obliged,\n\n84", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-539-4 Mui Tsai system 28-6-1932 - 28-11-1932.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 535302, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-541-11 Cheng Kwok Yau- trial judge's notes 1-1-1932 - 31-12-1932", "page_number": 189, "title": "CO129-541-11 Cheng Kwok Yau- trial judge's notes 1-1-1932 - 31-12-1932", "content_text": "22.6.32\n\n189\n\nHe was all right.

This question undoubtedly arises in the present connexion. Until it is thoroughly examined by a competent tribunal, the real nature of the problem as a whole can not be disclosed. Evidence is required; and I suggest that it be taken from the European and Chinese inspectors, from a few mui-tsai and ex-mui-tsai in other employment, from some of the many respectable employers of mui-tsai, and from some of the leading members of the Chinese community.\n\nProsecutions for failure to comply with the law are of no avail, if, as the Committee seems to think, the law is faulty. In this connection, it will be observed that the last half-yearly report recorded 25 prosecutions for keeping unregistered mui-tsai, and four prosecutions for importing unregistered mui-tsai.\n\nReviewing the subject as a whole, I see that the Committee is gravely concerned by the position. Its first conclusion, on page 24, is that \"the most urgent need is for a full Enquiry into the sale and adoption of Chinese girls\". On page 15 (as already mentioned) it asks the question \"What is the position of a mui-tsai not registered as such?\". In the marginal note it states \"The Ordinances fail to deal with many problems\". Lower down on the same page it states, in a marginal note, \"To say that there have been no mui-tsai since 1923 is wholly wrong\". The next marginal note contains the remarkable statement that the \"number of registered mui-tsai is unknown\".\n\n\"un-registered\". Perhaps the word should be \"unregistered\".\n\nThe marginal note on page 24 is: - \"Committee fear British Government may be more concerned in Mui-tsai than children generally\". My mention of these points serves to indicate the Committee's concern. It does not mean that I agree.\n\nIn particular, I demur to\n\n55", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-551-2 Mui Tsai system 30-11-1934 - 22-11-1935.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 546817, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-551-2 Mui Tsai system 30-11-1934 - 22-11-1935", "page_number": 56, "title": "CO129-551-2 Mui Tsai system 30-11-1934 - 22-11-1935", "content_text": "-IO-\n\nthe Committee's use of the word \"Sale\", and think that the\n\n\"Adoption\" complex will confuse the issue.\n\nThe basic\n\nidea is \"Female Domestic Service\" - the words, that is to say -\n\nof the Ordinance on the subject.

Mr. Okazaki stated that Japanese aeroplanes would be waiting to prevent their flight and would, if necessary, attack any base which they might be using. His Majesty's Consul-General immediately pointed out that any attack by Japanese aircraft within British territory would have the most serious consequences.\n\nThe incorrectness of the information which had reached Mr. Okazaki was speedily established and he was informed accordingly. He replied, however, that Japanese authorities could take no chances, and would pursue Chinese war aeroplanes over British territory if necessary.\n\nIt is hoped that Mr Okazaki's attention will be drawn to the fact that the pursuit of enemy aircraft over neutral territory is not allowed in International Law. Consequently, any combatant aircraft violating the neutrality of Hongkong is liable to be received with anti-aircraft fire, in which event His Majesty's Government could take no responsibility for the consequences.\n\nBritish Embassy,\nTokyo.\n23rd June 1939.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-579-5 Sino-Japanese War- Japanese aircraft- Hong Kong air space and other activities 31-1-1939 - 5-8-1939.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 570526, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-585-1 Sino-Japanese conflict- attacks on shipping 25-1-1940 - 2-10-1940", "page_number": 343, "title": "CO129-585-1 Sino-Japanese conflict- attacks on shipping 25-1-1940 - 2-10-1940", "content_text": "342\n\n李娣\n\nLI TAI, age 60 years, steersman, residing on board Fishing Junk No; unknown, of Hong Kong, states:-\n\nAt about 15.00 hours on 1st January, 1940, I left 筲箕湾 Shaukiwan Harbour on board the above junk to go fishing in Chinese Waters together with seven of a crew.\n\nAt about 06.15 hours on 9th January, 1940, my junk was at anchor about five miles off the shore at 碣石 Kit Shk in Hoi Fung District together with five other junks when I saw the Crew of a Japanese motor boat which had set fire to five other junks come alongside my junk.

Where are the advertisements to be published, and where are the bonds and interest to be paid under Sections 5(7), 9 and 11?\n\nHere again I presume that the Governor's powers under Section 10 and those relating to interest and sinking fund should also be exercisable by the Secretary of State.\n\nMr. Chorley also raised the question whether we would require any consequential provisions establishing continuity between the exercise of the powers by the Governor or other authorities in Hong Kong, and their exercise by the Secretary of State, e.g., provided that notices given to the Governor shall continue to be effective. I have not found any need for provision of this sort.\n\nI presume you are content to leave the Defence Contribution Ordinance, 1939, alone, and that the Treasury will not claim payment out of the money in the hands of the Crown Agents. In this connection see especially Section 4 of the Ordinance.\n\nCopies of the Ordinances referred to above and in the Order are with this file. They were returned to me by Mr. Chorley.\n\nWhen you have considered the questions raised above you may like to have a meeting at which we can settle all the modifications required. I should not refer the draft to Counsel again.\n\nAs regards `(1)` above, it might be argued that in certain cases the purposes of the journey justify the cost.

TROON HARBOUR.\n\n191\n\n(33) This undertaking dates from the beginning of last century and formed part of the entailed estates of the Duke of Portland. By the Glasgow and South Western Railway Act, 1901, the harbour was transferred to that railway company for £167,500 plus certain royalties, and under the Railways Act of 1921 it became vested in the L.M. & S. Railway Company, by which it is operated, mainly as a coal export port for the Ayrshire coalfield.\n\nJ.—AYR HARBOUR\n\n(34) Ayr Harbour, which was operated under a series of local acts commencing in 1855, came to be vested under a provisional order of 1901 in a body of Trustees consisting of the Provost and 3 members of the Town Council of Ayr, 5 elected ratepayers, and 6 persons appointed by the Railway Company, which then agreed to guarantee payment of the debenture interest, already in arrears. The revenue continued to be insufficient to meet the liabilities of the undertaking, and in 1919 it was transferred by authority of a provisional order to the Railway Company, 4 per cent. debenture stock being issued to the extent of £240,000 as purchase consideration to the harbour stockholders. Since 1921 the harbour has been vested in the L.M. & S. Railway Company, by which it is operated mainly as a coal export port for the Ayrshire coalfield.\n\nK. MINOR DOCK AND PIER UNDERTAKINGS\n\n(35) Mention must also be made of a number of small dock and pier undertakings which still preserve a separate existence.\n\nThe following now belong to the L.M.S. Railway Company:-\n\n(1) General Terminus Quay: This Depot and Wharf on the South side of Glasgow Harbour between Springfield Quay and Mavisbank Quay originally belonged to the General Terminus and Glasgow Harbour Railway Company, by whom it was transferred in 1848 to the Clyde Navigation Trustees. Under the Caledonian and General Terminus Railways Amalgamation Act 1865 the rights and duties of the former General Terminus Company were transferred to the Caledonian Railway Company, now incorporated in the L.M. & S. Railway Company, who enjoy the right to deal with shipping traffic at the Quay and power to charge for shipping appliances.\n\nThe Quay has been used latterly for coal export purposes, but to a declining extent. Prior to the war proposals for the adaptation of the Quay for the handling of Iron Ore on a large scale had been discussed with the Clyde Trust and the Iron and Steel Trade, and these proposals have now been revived. Reference may be made to Paragraph (159).\n\n(2) Renfrew Wharf: This wharf, which has been out of action since an air raid in March, 1941, is situated on the south side of the Clyde at the termination of the Paisley-Renfrew Railway. It was constructed under statutory powers granted in 1835. Its traffic, prior to its destruction in 1941, was negligible.\n\n(3) Bowling Harbour: This harbour originally belonged to the Trustees incorporated under the Forth and Clyde Navigation Act, 1767. Immediately adjoining is another Harbour belonging to the Clyde Trust, and immediately to the west of that a wharf known as Frisky Wharf, belonging to the L. & N.E. Railway Company. The traffic consists mainly of Iron and Steel Imports and a small quantity of coal, but it has been questioned whether for such purposes it is worth while keeping the port open.\n\n(4) Gourock Harbour and Pier: This undertaking passed into the hands of the Railway Company in 1869, having been promoted and constructed by a local Harbour Company. It has considerable importance for the Clyde passenger traffic and also accommodates general coastwise goods traffic. The facilities have been largely used for emergency purposes during the War, and certain expenditure has been incurred with the aid of the Ministry of War Transport and the Admiralty for the provision of improvements and extensions.\n\n(36) The principal passenger railway piers for local traffic, apart from Gourock Pier already mentioned, are those belonging to the L.M. & S. Railway Company at Wemyss Bay, Fairlie, Largs and Stranraer, and to the L.N.E. Railway Company at Craigendoran. Both railway companies stress the importance of these piers being operated as single entities in association with the relative stations, in view of the need for co-ordination between train and steamer workings.\n\nSUBSIDISED STEAMER SERVICES\n\n(37) In order to complete the picture of the position in the Clyde Estuary, we think it right to note that in 1928 a contract was concluded between the Minister of Transport, the Postmaster General and Messrs. David MacBrayne Ltd. under which the latter company undertook to maintain certain services, including the carrying of mails, and to reduce freight charges to and from certain places in the Western Isles. This contract was renewed in 1938, when provision was made also for passenger and mail services between certain Clyde ports. The total subsidy under the 1938 contract is £60,000 per annum, and the services provided within the estuary are:-(1) the Ardrishaig service, from Glasgow or Greenock to Gourock, Dunoon, Innellan, Rothesay, Colintraive, Tighnabruaich and Tarbert; and (2) the Loch Goil service, between Greenock and Lochgoilhead, calling intermittently at Gourock, Carrick Castle, Douglas Pier, Kilcreggan and Cove. These services have been modified under war conditions, and it is understood that the financial arrangements have been superseded by the war-time requisition scheme.\n\nTHE HARBOUR PIERS & FERRIES (SCOTLAND) ACT, 1937\n\n(38) By this Act various provisions were made for the transfer to local authorities, and the construction and maintenance, of \"marine works\", defined as meaning any harbour, pier, ferry or boatslip which in the opinion of the Secretary of State and the Minister of War Transport is principally used or required for the fishing or agricultural industries, or is reasonably required for the maintenance of communications between the various parts of Scotland, but excluding the undertakings of the major harbour authorities and railway companies.\n\nSince this Act came into force 112 undertakings in Scotland have been deemed to be \"marine works\"; in 9 cases local authorities have acquired the undertakings; 15 constructional schemes have been dealt with; and in 97 cases the provisions of the Act dealing with maintenance have been applied. Only 4 of these marine works are situated within the Firth of Clyde, and the position with regard to these and certain associated projects is worthy of note.\n\n(39) Dunoon Pier: In 1939 the L.M.S. Railway Company had under consideration the provision of a vehicular ferry between Dunoon and Gourock,\n\nII", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-592-10 Future Policy in Hong Kong- Port Administration 10-4-1946 - 15-4-1947.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 582484, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-595-8 United Nations Relief Rehabilitations Administration Supplies 10-5-1946 - 1-1-1947", "page_number": 19, "title": "CO129-595-8 United Nations Relief Rehabilitations Administration Supplies 10-5-1946 - 1-1-1947", "content_text": "## 244.

The same questions may arise no doubt in relation to other services, but in this matter, the Police, who are concerned with security, are in rather a special category. I have amended the drafts accordingly.\n\nI am still not sure what impression the recipients of draft \"C\" will, or indeed are intended to, derive from it. The Hong Kong Government is, theoretically, in a position to avoid all possible complications which may arise in regard to nationality, by refraining from drawing any Indians for their Police Force from India. With the possible exception of Singapore (Mr. Man's minute of the 19th March) that position is not repeated so far as I know in any other Colony. Draft \"C\" is in fact intended for the Colonies which already have Indian elements in their Police Force, and, in fact, so far as my researches go, such Indians are for the most part drawn not from India but from local Indian resident population. The potential complications in respect of these Colonies are therefore in any case unavoidable, and will not be affected by the continued recruitment of a few persons from India.\n\nI think it will suffice - and save the copying of minutes - to send Draft C. A copy is placed in 2281/47. After the Drafts have been passed for mail, I suggest that Deolal and be disposed of after they have gone. The file should be recirculated & placed in TD. Do come arrange to consult Ecographical Dept.\n\nABA2416 should be sent immediately.\n\nNB. I have just heard that the IO is likely to reply on 2281/47 to the general effect that it is desirable to go ahead with the formulation of a definite policy regarding nationality.

He has postponed the office.\n\nPerhaps to follow.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-607-5 Police Department- Indian Section 8-1-1946 - 15-9-1947.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 588957, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-608-3 Occupation reports- education in Stanley Internment Camp 7-11-1945 - 18-7-1947", "page_number": 4, "title": "CO129-608-3 Occupation reports- education in Stanley Internment Camp 7-11-1945 - 18-7-1947", "content_text": "1745\n\n7.

The authorities of the territories from which nearly two-thirds of its students came contributed no grants for its support. It is clearly wrong to attempt to achieve an Imperial purpose and leave the full financial responsibility to one small Colony. If the University is to serve as an instrument for mutual understanding between the British and Chinese peoples, the major part of the financial responsibility should properly fall on Imperial funds. The Colonial Government cannot afford, nor can it appropriately be asked to do more than hitherto has been done. A university fulfilling the broad purpose we envisage would be serving the interests of the Commonwealth and not merely the United Kingdom. We hope therefore that consideration may in due course be given to the possibility of enlisting financial help from the Dominions as well as from Great Britain.\n\n(b) Isolation.\n\n21. The University suffered from isolation in various ways.\n\n(\n\n44 \n\nwith the \"unequal treaties have been gradually cleared away.\n\n**\n\n(i) Chinese nationalist feeling reached full tide at the time of the Second Revolution\", i.e. the collapse of the reactionary war-lords and the establishment of the new central regime in Nanking under the auspices of the Kuomintang. It was, in essence, an inevitable movement of resurgence against the accumulated humiliations and restrictions which had marked China's international relations in the preceding era. The establishment of the Nanking regime was in itself the first step towards more normal conditions, and the process received an immediate and momentous encouragement in His Majesty's Government's declaration, in December, 1926, of confidence in and sympathy with the new regime and the national aspirations it expressed. Since then the anomalies associated We would not venture to prophesy how Chinese feeling towards us and other countries may develop during the remainder of this fateful century, but at least it can be said that the stage is set for collaboration on terms of equality and reciprocity, and it follows that an opportunity now exists which never existed in anything like the same measure in the past, of which it behoves the Chinese and ourselves to take full advantage, as equal and essentially like-minded members of the family of nations. No one could guarantee that the Chinese sentiment towards a revived University in Hong Kong would remain uniformly friendly and cooperative and undisturbed by any fitful feeling of jealousy or by the influence of extraneous events. But there is, so far as we can discern, no special reason for pessimism on this score. It would, naturally, depend largely on the broad conception of the project, the manner in which it was launched, and the way in which it fitted into the general pattern of our relations with China.\n\n(ii) Situated in a Cantonese speaking area, the University was at a disadvantage in attracting Mandarin speaking students from other parts of China and its graduates were at a disadvantage on language grounds in seeking employment in China. This disability will be greatly reduced by the recent decision of the Hong Kong Government to encourage in its schools the study of the national language (Kwo Yü) which the Government of China is successfully disseminating.\n\n(iii) Moreover, like institutions of higher education in other Colonies, the University suffered from intellectual isolation. Its poverty prevented it from adopting an adequate system of home leave or sabbatical leave for its staff; it could not afford, financially or in terms of staff, to facilitate frequent study leave in China, visiting lectureships, summer schools, and those other forms of intellectual intercourse which would have kept it\n\nII\n\ncontinuously refreshed by vigorous contact with both British and Chinese academic developments. The proper financing of the University would remove many of these difficulties. Other developments also will contribute to their removal, such as the recommendations of the Asquith Commission for staff secondment, annual visits, improved conditions of service for staff, etc., with which the Inter-University Council for Higher Education in the Colonies is concerned. The impending reorganization of the Universities Bureau of the British Empire will also assist in reducing this isolation and will facilitate interchange of staff and ideas with the Empire universities.\n\n(c) Competition.\n\n22. When the University was founded in 1911 there were few universities in China. The past thirty years have seen the growth of numerous Chinese universities, a few of which have achieved standards which make them rank as equals with those of the United Kingdom. This development has meant not only the diversion of many students who might otherwise have proceeded to Hong Kong, but also that Hong Kong University was rapidly out-distanced in equipment and resources. We consider that far from preventing a reconstituted University from achieving its aim, this factor could in the future greatly assist it in doing so. There is now a manifold and energetic academic life in China with which a British university could make contact. The opportunities for exchange, for common study, for cooperation in research, create now the conditions in which \"the maintenance of good understanding on a university level is fruitfully possible. It is, however, an absolute requirement that the University of Hong Kong should in quality and standards be able to meet its sister universities in China at least as an equal.\n\nPOLICY GOVERNING THE UNIVERSITY'S RESUSCITATION\n\n23. We recommend, therefore, that a University should continue to exist in Hong Kong primarily as a centre for Sino-British contact in the sphere of learning and for the maintenance of good understanding with the neighbouring country of China. We have the following six comments or recommendations to add on further general aspects of the policy which should govern the resuscitation of the University on these lines. Detailed and technical points are dealt with in Part III.\n\n(a) Permanence.\n\n24. In the first place, plans must be for a permanent University. Even if, in the immediate emergency, temporary arrangements have to be adopted for buildings, for equipment, even for staffing, these must be regarded merely as first-aid measures and must not be allowed to prejudice, or to serve as an excuse for postponing, permanent plans. Quite apart from the fact that the cheap and the temporary always prove a false economy in university development, a university in Hong Kong could not recruit staff or in other ways attain the standards necessary to represent British scholarship and could not become a centre of learning unless it had the self-confidence provided by the intention and assurance of permanence. The chief purpose it is designed to serve, namely the maintenance of good understanding, is a permanent one, whatever changes may occur in the ephemeral political scene. It should be constructed and planned to survive any change that might take place in the status of Hong Kong; even if a radical change occurred, the University's functions would become more, not less important as a living source of British influence and as an established centre of Sino-British contact. Two practical consequences follow\n\n52226\n\nA 5", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-610-2 Rehabilitation of Hong Kong University 9-1-1948 - 18-1-1949.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 591652, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-612-1 Police Department- petition from European memebers of Inspectorate 21-1-1947 - 17-2-1948", "page_number": 128, "title": "CO129-612-1 Police Department- petition from European memebers of Inspectorate 21-1-1947 - 17-2-1948", "content_text": "# Impending Promotions to Chief Inspectors\n\n## Commissioner of Police\n\n### Subject\n### IO\n### From\n### Chairman, British Inspectors Committee\n\n126\n\nN\n\nSir,\n\nWith reference to our conversation regarding the impending promotions, I would, after further consideration and consultations, again request you that these promotions be deferred until you can give more consideration to the subject.\n\nI am directed to request that this Committee be informed of who constitute the Promotion Board.\n\n12.3.47.\n\nI have the honour to be, Sir,\nYours faithfully,\n`(ed) J.
