That afforestation has now been taken thoroughly in hand, Your Lordship will see from Mr. Ford's recent report of the 15th of May 1880. Instead of planting out fifteen thousand trees per annum, Mr. Ford has already planted 60,000 this year, and he anticipates a total of over a quarter of a million for the year's work.\n\n10. With the co-operation of the Chinese, to which Mr. Ford refers in paragraph 5 of his report, we may perhaps be able, from the middle of next year, to plant out half a million of trees per annum.\n\n11.

Mr. Bland said that conditions of this kind while without possible detriment to the interest/ of the Chinese Governtent, were absolutely necessary to inspire con-fidence amongst investors. He had sent to Shanghai for one of the Bonds and hoped to be able to reassure His Excellency as to its form\n\nbeing unobjectionable.\n\nArticle 2. M. 5. T'ang Shao-Yi objected to the wording of this article in so far as it referred to the Working Agree-ment to be hereafter negotiated between the Viceroy and the Hongkong Government. He considered this as a ratter beyond the proper scope of\n\nthe present Loan Agreement which referred only to the Chinese section of the Hailway and be therefore proposed to delete all sention of the\n\nsaid working agreesent, incidentally, he objected to the ters as liable\n\nto create misapprehension and difficulty in the future, and stated that\n\nthe Chinese Government would not bind itself to the condition that the\n\ntwo sections of the line should be worked as one undertaking it being\n\ntheir intention to have separate frontier stations and an independent\n\nsystem, under conditions similar to those existing at the Hengtsi\n\nJunction of the Northern and Ching Han Hailways.\n\nkr. Biand expressed regret that this\n\nintention had not been made clear from the outset since the loan issue\n\nmust inevitably be prejudiced if there be any doubt as to the Railway\n\nbeing worked under reciprocal arrangements calcuisted to promote its\n\nearning powers, he pointed out that the Working Agreement had been\n\nfrequently mentioned and its eventual arrangement assured at earlier\n\nmeetings; siso that in Article 21 of the viceroy's draft it is specific-\n\n-ally provided for.

I approve of the embodiment in future leases of Crown Lands of the conditions suggested by General Black in the latter part of the last paragraph of his despatch; and I am therefore unable to approve of the proposed exceptional treatment of the lands on the Praya Reclamation.\n\n4. I should be glad if you would communicate my decision to the writers of the various letters enclosed in the despatch under acknowledgment.\n\nGovernor,\n\nSIR H. A. BLAKE, G.C.M.G.,\n\nHONGKONG,\n\nNo. 124.\n\nI have, &c.,\n\nJ. CHAMBERLAIN.\n\nDOWNING STREET,\n\n5th July, 1899.\n\nSIR-With reference to my telegram of the 23rd ultimo, relative to the leasing of Crown Lands in Hongkong, I have the honour to point out to you that in my despatch No. 132 of the 23rd May 1898, I decided that future leases should be for periods not exceeding seventy-five or at the outside ninety-nine years.\n\n2. In my despatch No. 320 of the 9th December last, I accepted the suggestion made in Major-General Black's despatch No. 284 of the 6th October last, viz. that in the case of leases for seventy-five years it should be definitely laid down that the original lessee or the assignee in possession, on the expiration of the term, should be offered the renewal of the lease for a further period of seventy-five years upon such an advance of Crown Rent as is justified by the then value of the land and without fine, and that, if the land should be resumed by the Government for any public purpose, compensation for improvements and disturbance should be awarded to the lessee or assignee.\n\n3.

If the Chamber would say what range they want the question would be easy. We could get a 3-kilowatt or even 5-kilowatt installation. In the case of the 5-kilowatt station in Fiji, we had a guarantee by Marconi that it would be effective up to 300 miles at all times and under all conditions, but we found that at night it was effective for a much greater distance, up to 800 or 900 miles, and even further sometimes.\n\nMr. Ross.-If we only had a low-power station, there would be no revenue except from ships.\n\nHis Excellency.--If you want to communicate with shore stations in surrounding countries, a medium-power station would, of course, be necessary, but I do not see why you should, as there are cables, unless the idea is to compete with the cable companies, and reduce their rates by competition.\n\nMr. Edkins.—I have not followed the discussion on this subject, as I was absent from the Colony when it was introduced. It is quite possible that compulsory wireless telegraphy may be imposed on all ships, and it would be very desirable for a ship in distress to be able to communicate from half way between here and Singapore, say 600 miles. Manila would be nearer, it is true, but they would prefer to communicate with British ports in the event of repairs being required. If wireless installations on merchant ships are made compulsory, they will probably have a longer range than 300 miles, and the ships will try to recoup themselves for some of the cost by charging for messages to shore. The Admiralty will not receive such messages at their high-power station. These are, in my opinion, points for consideration.\n\nMr. Shallard.-The installations on ships are still in the trial stage. Those on our ships have a nominal range of 250 miles, but it is in practice as much as 750 miles, and as time goes on these installations will be increased in power as shore stations to receive their messages are increased in number. For example, our ships communicate with Bombay on Wednesday evening, when they are due to arrive on Friday morning, and a number of messages are sent from shore.\n\nHis Excellency. My experience is that a ship with a nominally small apparatus can send a longer message than a similar apparatus on shore, because she has the engines of the ship to give increased power. In Fiji we had a 5-kilowatt Marconi installation, and there was a ship with only a 2-kilowatt Telefunken installation, but she could communicate with us as long as we could communicate with her, up to as much as 1,300 miles at night, simply because her engines were more powerful than our shore engine. I gather that what you gentlemen think is required is a station on shore with a range of 600 miles under favourable circumstances.\n\nMr. Shallard.-We want to communicate with vessels two days out, not less than 600 miles.\n\nHis Excellency.-If you want to do that at all times you get into a medium-power station straight away. What about Bombay? Must it be in the day time?\n\nMr. Shallard. They communicate mostly at night.\n\nMr. Edkins. It seems to me that, if we can run to the expense, the practical distance is half way between here and Singapore, say 700 miles.\n\nMr. Stewart-Would it not be enough to be able to communicate such a distance at night.\n\nMr. Edkins. Not if a ship was in distress.\n\nMr. Ross.-The question is in the initial stage so far as ships are concerned.\n\nMr. Shallard. I understand the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's ships can communicate 1,200 miles.\n\nMr. Ross.-That is so. I have had experience of it.\n\nMr. Stubb.-Is it possible to increase a low-power station to a medium-power station.\n\nHis Excellency.--I think not.\n\nMr. Ross.-You can have a low-power station attached to a medium-power station.\n\nHis Excellency--I understand that you do not make a point of communication with neighbouring countries.\n\nMr. Ross. The idea of communicating with land stations was on the score of revenue. We thought we could bring down cable charges and get revenue from it.\n\nMr. Stabb.--The Cable Companies have made a large reduction for deferred messages. You can send for half rates.\n\nHis Excellency-The question of producing revenue is really a separate consideration. I understand that the primary object of the installation is to communicate with ships.\n\nMr. Edkins-Also for typhoon warnings, if, for example, anything is to be done as regards the Pratas Islands.\n\nHis Excellency. That has to come perhaps. In the case of mail steamers you want to communicate with them at two days' range, not necessarily by day, and in the case of ships acquiring higher power installations than at present, you do not wish to lay behind. That, I understand, is what was in the mind of the Chamber of Commerce in recommending a medium-power station.\n\nMr. Stewart.-Where did the Chamber get the estimate of £6,000 for a medium-power station?\n\nMr. Shallard.--I think there was some misunderstanding on the subject.\n\nMr. Stewart.-Is the Colony tied to Marconi?\n\nHis Excellency-I cannot say. The Telefunken installation is much cheaper to begin with, but I believe the Marconi Company say that their installations are cheaper over a number of years. I am informed that the Telefunken Company make high charges for renewal of parts of the machinery. I do not know whether this is so. Well, gentlemen, I am much obliged to you for coming, I will make a note of the conversation and send it to you for confirmation before communicating with the Secretary of State again on the subject.\n\n## III-GOVERNOR OF HONG KONG to COLONIAL OFFICE.\n\n(Telegram: received, Colonial Office, 9:51 a.m. 4th October 1912.)\n\nWith reference to speech delivered by Postmaster-General, House of Commons, 7th August wireless telegraph installation, commercial community strongly desire Hong Kong should be included in initial scheme. Despatch follows by mail.\n\n## MAY.\n\nSIR,\n\n### STRAITS SETTLEMENTS.\n\n#### 1.-COLONIAL OFFICE to GOVERNOR OF STRAITS SETTLEMENTS.\n\n16th February 1912.\n\nI HAVE the honour to inform you that the proposal referred to in my predecessor's despatch, Miscellaneous, of 1st February 1910, and subsequent correspondence, that a wireless station for communication with ships should be established at Singapore by Marconi's Wireless Telegraph Company and the Eastern Extension Australasia and China Wireless Telegraph Company, has now been abandoned as the companies desired to attach a condition to the grant of the proposed licence which I was not prepared to accept.\n\n2. In these circumstances I would ask you to consider whether it would not be desirable for the Colonial Government itself to establish such a station in view of the fact that many ships are now equipped with wireless apparatus.\n\n3. The cost of 1 kilowatt station with a range of about 300 miles would probably be about £2,000 exclusive of site, and the annual cost of maintenance might be about £700.\n\n4.

The deliberations of the congress were formulated in the shape of resolutions demanding from the administration certain concrete reforms. The first resolution was for a Royal Commission to enquire into the working of the Indian administration. The tribute from India was a heavy drain on the Indian taxpayer. They asked for simultaneous examination for the Indian Civil Service in India and in England. Another resolution reads: \"That this congress considers the reform and expansion of the Supreme and existing Local Legislative Councils by the admission of a considerable proportion of elected members essential, and holds that all budgets should be referred to these Councils for consideration, their members being, moreover, empowered to interpellate the Executive in regard to all branches of the administration.\" These resolutions were sent to the proper quarters.\n\nThe next session of the congress met in Calcutta in Christmas week, 1886, and ever since then they have met every Christmas in nearly all the most important centres of India. The assembly has been presided over by men well-known for their probity and service. The congress movement has drawn to its fold such names as the late Mahadev Govind Ranade, Surendro Nath Banerjea (\"the uncrowned King of Bengal\"), Krishna Kumar Mitra, Motilal Ghosh (editor of the Amrita Bazar Patrika), Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Dadabhai Naoroji, S. Subramania Iyer, Pherozshah Mehta, Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, Lala Lajpat Rai, and the late Gopal Krishna Gokhale, founder of the Servants of India Society.\n\n### INDIA NOT PROPERLY UNDERSTOOD\n\nIn welcoming the second congress in Calcutta, Dr. Rajindralal Mittra, the famous scholar, said: \"We live not under a National Government, but under a foreign bureaucracy; our foreign rulers are foreigners by birth, religion, language, habits, by everything that divides humanity into different sections. They cannot possibly dive into our hearts, they cannot ascertain our wants, our feelings, our aspirations. They may try their best, and I have no reason to doubt that many of our Governors have tried hard to ascertain our feelings and our wants; but owing to their peculiar position they have failed to ascertain them.\"\n\n### BITTER POVERTY OF INDIA\n\nHon. Dadabhai Naoroji, who later on sat in the Imperial House of Commons, was the president of this session. He laid stress on the bitter poverty of India. Mr. D. E. Wacha, who afterwards became secretary of the congress, said that the condition of the ryots, or peasants, had steadily deteriorated since 1848, and that forty millions of people had only one meal a day, and not always that. The main cause is the tribute to Great Britain, exported to fructify there, and swell still further the unparalleled wealth of those distant isles, never in any shape to return here to bless the country from whose soil it was wrung, or the people, the sweat of whose brow it represents.\n\nAnother delegate spoke of the extortion of the revenue authorities.\n\n### INDIA SPEAKS\n\nAnother resolution, and the most important, was moved by Raja Rampal Singh, a well-known public man from North India, appealing to the Government to sanction volunteering. The moral debasement caused by the disarmament of the whole nation, was and is felt acutely. He said: \"We are deeply grateful to the Government for all the good that it has done us, but we cannot be grateful to it when it is, no matter with what best of intentions, doing us a terrible and irreparable injury. We cannot be grateful to it for degrading our natures, for systematically crushing out of us all martial spirit, for converting a race of soldiers and heroes into a timid flock of quill-driving sheep. Thank God, things have not yet gone quite so far as this. There are some of us yet, everywhere, who would be willing to draw sword, and if needful lay down our lives, for hearth and homes, aye, and for the support and maintenance of that Government to which we owe so much. But this is what we are coming to... and when we once come to that, then I think that, despite the glories of the Pax Britannica, despite the noble intentions of Great Britain, despite all the good she may have done or tried to do us, the balance will be against her, and India will have to regret rather than rejoice that she has ever had anything to do with England.\n\n\"This may be strong language, but it is the truth; nothing can ever make amends to a nation for the destruction of its national spirit, and of the capacity to defend itself and the soil from which it springs.\n\n\"High and low, we are losing all knowledge of the use of arms, and with this that spirit of self-reliance which enables a man to dare, which makes men brave, which makes them worthy of the name of men.\n\n\"I might dwell on the fact that in the way the Arms Act is now worked in many localities, the people, their herds, their crops, are wholly at the mercy of the wild beasts. I might dwell on the insult, the injustice, the violation of the most sacred and solemn pledges by England to India, that are involved in the rules that permit Indian Christians, but do not permit Indian Hindus or Mohammedans to volunteer.\" This resolution was carried, and yet 29 years later the Arms Act is still on the Statute Book, and no Hindus or Mohammedans are permitted to defend their hearths and homes. In this connection, it is well to remember that although even in France and Russia the native Algerians and Moslem Russians and others can get commissions in the army and command regiments, no native of India can get a commission or ever join a military college in India, paid for and supported by the taxpayers of India. The congress has passed resolutions every year asking that commissions be granted to Indians, but to no purpose.\n\n### SELF-GOVERNMENT THE GOAL\n\nThe first and foremost plank in the congress is, of course, **Swaraj**, or self-government. Indians are at every step reminded of being a subject race. They want a Government national in spirit and an administration that will feel that India's interests are its first consideration. India wants to be governed by Indians, who will know the real sentiments and desires of the people. The government of the people by the people and for the people is the watchword. If \"Canada for the Canadians\" holds good, why not \"India for the Indians\"! That does not mean hostility to anyone, but it does mean a federated India consisting of various autonomous provinces or States, under one whole. When Indians were harshly treated in South Africa and Canada, things would have been far different if they had some representatives to look after their interests in those countries.\n\n\"No taxation without representation\" is the first commandment in the Englishman's political Bible; how can he falter with his conscience and tax us here, his free and educated fellow-subjects, as if we were dumb sheep or cattle? But we are not dumb any longer. India has found a voice at last in this great congress, and in it, and through it, we call on England to be true to her traditions, her instincts, and herself, and grant us our rights as free-born British citizens.\" So said the famous scholar, Pandit Madan Mohun Malaviya, who long afterwards became one of the founders of the Hindu University of Benares.\n\nAnother plank in the platform of the congress is the separation of judicial and executive functions. In India, the police is the handmaiden of the bureaucracy, and very often the prosecutor and the judge are the same person, and not as in advanced countries, where the two offices are separate. The police, even according to the official class, is not exactly what it ought to be. For carrying out impartial justice, it is absolutely essential that the two functions be not in the same hand.\n\n### SWADESHI AND PROTECTION\n\nThe third great plank is **Swadeshi** or promotion of home-made goods. In Canada, there is the \"Made-in-Canada\" programme, but not so with India. The authorities looked askance at this. Although Indian industries are hampered at every step, e.g., there is a countervailing duty of 3 1/2 per cent on cotton goods manufactured in India herself. (One wonders if there is any country in the wide world which has this curious anomaly of imposing a tax on her own manufactures, and yet this is so in India.)\n\nGerman and Austrian goods were dumped on India's shores. German and Austrian ships, flying the flags of the Central Empires, called regularly at Bombay and other Indian ports, although Indian shipping, which was well-known all over the Orient in the past, has on account of unfair competition been swept away. **Swadeshi** demands that home-made goods be given preference to foreign manufactures, and as the Government of India is not national, the Nationalists, if they had their day, would have protection for India's infant industries, and are trying to do the next best thing, which is promoting the industries of India.\n\n### COMPULSORY EDUCATION ESSENTIAL\n\nThe congress has, through the efforts of the late Mr. Gokhale, passed a resolution demanding free and compulsory education. It seems strange that in a country like India, which has been under British control for over a century, education is not so advanced as in the Philippines, which during the last ten or fifteen years have made wonderful progress under American suzerainty. Even in States like Baroda, which is under an Indian prince, and where there is a purely Indian administration, the system of elementary education has been made free and compulsory both for boys and girls. Why not in India, with all her efficient administration?\n\nThe congress has in most of the Provinces a Provincial Committee, holding a conference every year, where the Nationalist sentiment finds expression. The head offices for the All-India National Congress are at Madras, there being two secretaries, Nawab Sayed Mohammed and Mr. Subba Row. G. A. Natesan & Co., of Madras, have published some interesting literature on the congress. They also issue every year a book giving the proceedings of the congress.\n\n## CANADA AND INDIA\n\n### INDIAN ASPIRATIONS TO-DAY\n\nIn a pamphlet dealing with India and the war, Mr. Bhupendra Nath Basu, ex-member of the Imperial Legislative Council of India and President of the Indian National Congress, held in Madras at Christmas, 1914, writes:\n\n\"There is in India a spirit of frank recognition of the benefits of British rule and of its immense potentialities for good, if carried on under the lead of the British democracy and free from the trammels of constant tutelage, which certain Anglo-Indian administrators would like to impose upon it. Several generations in India were born and lived during the reign of Queen Victoria. To her, as their great Queen and Mother, from whom emanated the great charter of their rights and liberties, the Indian people were passionately attached and devoted. This feeling of personal attachment and devotion has been greatly stimulated and strengthened by the visits to India of members of the Royal Family. They knew how to say and to do the right thing at the right moment, and by their inbred courtesy and geniality of manner, they have helped to soften the atmosphere of aloofness which some British officials, under the erroneous sense of dignity and prestige, at times surround themselves.\n\n### INDIAN DEMAND FOR EDUCATION\n\nThe visit of the King and Queen, as the visible embodiment of sovereignty, and the generous and noble utterances of the King in his various addresses in India, did much to hearten the people in their faith in the ultimate fulfilment of the great Proclamation of Queen Victoria, for hopes deferred had made them falter. The Indian people justly demand a great extension of education among the masses, for it is the foundation of all progress, and the words of the King in his reply to the address of the University of Calcutta have been taken by them as a fresh landmark in the development of education in India. His Majesty said: \"It is my wish that there may be spread over the land a network of schools and colleges, from which will go forth loyal and manly and useful citizens, able to hold their own in the industries and agriculture and all the vocations in life. And it is my wish, too, that the homes of my Indian subjects may be brightened and their labour sweetened by the spread of knowledge with all that follows in its train, a higher level of thought, of comfort, and of health. It is through education that my wish will be fulfilled, and the cause of education in India will ever be close to my heart.\"\n\n### WANTS CITIZENSHIP RIGHTS\n\nThese are precious words to the Indian people as the declaration by the Sovereign of a policy which must be carried out. Great and far-reaching as have been the benefits of British rule in India, it has not yet risen to the full height of the British people in whose name and on whose behalf it is administered, nor of the people, heirs to an ancient civilization, for whose benefit the great Queen asked Divine help to administer her rule. Important questions, such as the right to carry arms, to enlist as volunteers, to enter the commissioned ranks of the Army, the recognition of equal citizenship in British colonies, the better administration of justice, a more equitable participation in the government of the country, still await solution, and India has necessarily felt at times sore and heart-sick; but there never has been any desire to break away. India has definitely set herself to forge ahead.\n\n### WORKING FOR SWARAJ\n\nShe has never doubted. Her heart has been wholly with British rule; the foundations of her faith and loyalty have been too well and firmly laid to be lightly disturbed; all that she desires is that British rule in India should be compatible with the self-respect of her people, growing in education, knowledge, and experience; that it should develop into a rule by the people as part of the British Empire as was foreseen and foretold by the great statesmen who moulded her destinies in the early part of the nineteenth century. And India has been working towards this goal; she realizes it must be a slow and laborious process.\n\n### INDIAN NATIONALISM AND THE WAR\n\nMr. John Matthai, in a recent pamphlet on \"Indian Nationalism and the War,\" says: \"The effect of the war will for the present be confined to the educated class in India, whose importance, however, is not to be measured by their number. It has shown them to be a loyal body, willing to co-operate with the Government. At the same time, it will strengthen the spirit of nationalism among them. The primary cause of the hostile element in the Indian Nationalism is the extent to which Indians are shut out of the higher offices; to remedy this is the immediate necessity. In the meantime, the question of elective Government and the extent of its possible application must be carefully weighed and thought out before any large committal is made. On the positive side, nationalism will be prompted under the influence of the war to devote itself more than before to the condition of the masses. This added sense of social needs will strengthen the desire for security and peace; it will also lead to a deeper cultivation of the ancient spirituality of the race.\n\n\"If these considerations are at all valid, it may be added that there is nothing in them to alarm or to alienate either people. There is much to give hope and confidence to both. There have been things in the past to hurt and wound. They need not have been. But it seems we have decided to forget the things of the past. In the face of the un-speakable tragedy which is enacted before our eyes, in which men of many nations are mingling their blood for a common cause, we can afford to fix our eyes away from the past across this vale of tears, on the love and hope and abiding peace of the future. There was no black and brown and white in the blood which flowed from Calvary. Nor is there in the warm, precious, human blood which flows over the battle-fields of Europe. All of it is red alike, and every drop of it, without distinction of race, betokens the sob of a broken mother-heart. Therefore, while this great elemental struggle is driving us back to a sense of eternal values, let us put back—all of us, both those who won and those who lost, those who laughed and those who wept—let us put back the things that divide and hold fast to the things that bind.\"\n\n### DR. BOSE AT CALCUTTA\n\nDr. Jagdish Chandra Bose, D.Sc., C.S.I., C.I.E., the famous Hindu scientist, has arrived in India after his travels in Europe, America, Japan, and the Far East. The other day, an address of welcome was presented to him at Madura, and recently a reception in his honour was held at the Ram Mohan Library at Calcutta.\n\nInspired by his visits to the ancient universities of India at Taxila, at Nalanda, and at Conjeevram, Dr. Bose had the strongest confidence that India would soon see a revival of those glorious traditions. There will soon rise a Temple of Learning where the teacher, a real sanyasin, would go on with his ceaseless pursuit after truth, and, dying, hand on his work and enthusiasm to his disciples.\n\n### ECONOMIC DANGER IN INDIA\n\nDr. Bose referred especially to the economic danger in India, and the revival of Indian industries cannot be too highly appreciated. That is the question in India to-day. The tocsin of alarm raised by him ought to go straight into the hearts of both the people and the Government. If India is to be saved from the disastrous effects of the increasing poverty, her commerce and industry must be revived. And this is her opportunity now that the great war has driven Germany from her markets.\n\nBut what do we find? Instead of that, Japan has captured all our industrial markets. Dr. Bose assures us that she has made gigantic preparations for that purpose. Within a few decades, she has even surpassed her past master Germany in developing her manufactures and shipping. One of the methods employed by her, Dr. Bose tells us, is to practically exclude all foreign manufactured articles from her soil by prohibitive tariffs. The coast-wise and foreign shipping of India is in alien hands. Japan is more and more encroaching upon this preserve.\n\n### PROTECTION THE RIGHT POLICY\n\nWhy should not the Government of India follow Japan in this respect? It is free trade which has ruined India commercially. It is free trade which is really at the bottom of the economic state, forcing a Sikh from North India to seek his fortune in lands where he is unwelcome. If protective duties had been imposed upon imported articles, India would have long ago become one of the great manufacturing countries of the world, and to which she is rightly entitled, producing as she does such a large variety of raw materials. Germany and Austria would have never made a footing in our markets if free trade principles had not been allowed to rule supreme in India. Java has killed our sugar industry completely. When a small countervailing duty on foreign sugar was levied in India, such a howl was raised against it by the advocates of free trade in England that it had to be given up.\n\n### HINDU MINISTER OF EDUCATION\n\nWhen Sir Sankaram Nair joins the Viceroy's Executive Council this month, the Departments of Education, Local Government, and Sanitation will, for the first time in the history of British India, pass under Indian control. The significance of the event cannot be exaggerated. It is in these three directions that progress is especially demanded at the present moment; and the order in which we have placed the departments exactly represents their respective importance.

However, without clear context, we'll leave it as is for now but correct \"swill\" to \"will\" and \"forwarder\" to \"forwarded\".\n - \"Depraga pake poppet\" is unclear; it might be a misrecognition of a date or a specific term related to the context. \"Thin Controther's\" is also unclear.\n - \"dermansh\" could be \"Censorship\" or another relevant term, but it's not clear. \"Controller\" seems plausible in context.\n - \"acemulation\" should be \"accumulation\".\n - \"ong mal\" should be \"original\".\n - \"sunt time\" is unclear; it could be \"some time\" or another phrase.\n - \"smormons\" is not clear; it might be a misrecognition of \"voluminous\".\n - \"amy read\" should be \"easy read\" or another relevant phrase, but \"easy reference\" seems plausible.\n - \"J.E. Stubb\" should be \"J.E. Stubbs\".\n\n2. **Formatting and Markdown**:\n - The text is not formatted in Markdown. Headers, bold text, and tables should be formatted accordingly. However, the given text doesn't seem to require complex Markdown formatting beyond correcting spacing and obvious errors.\n\n3. **Reordering and Completing Sentences**:\n - Some sentences are broken or contain OCR errors. Reordering and completing them based on context is necessary.\n\nHere's a corrected version in HTML as per the instructions:\n\n- adding a war J \n\n15 \n\n; \n\nN° \n287 \n353 \n\nOricon \n\nThe communications have been taken and will be forwarded to Germany as desired. \n\nLicense for direct communication, which provided that copies of such communications & the original replies shall be kept and handed to the Controller, was specially worded to prevent copies of everything being sent to the clearing office, in accumulation of material for easy reference. \n\n16.1.76 \n52>85 \n\nMy Lord, \n\nGOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG. 17th September, 1920. \n\nIn continuation of my despatch No.277 of the 3rd September, 1920, I have the honour to forward for transmission to the Central Clearing Office the following letters:- \n\n(1).

The text contains a mix of English, Arabic, Chinese (not directly visible but inferred from the context of \"Hong Kong\" and the mention of rule 15 regarding Chinese writing direction), and possibly other languages or garbled text.\n\nTo adhere to the provided rules and compact knowledge for proofreading OCR output related to Hong Kong historical records, the task involves correcting spelling errors, fixing spacing issues, rejoining broken sentences, restoring paragraph breaks, indicating missing words, and formatting in Markdown, among other tasks.\n\nHowever, given the input text is heavily corrupted and doesn't form coherent sentences or paragraphs in any single language, a direct application of the rules is challenging. Nonetheless, identifiable elements and potential corrections are as follows:\n\n# DRAFT MINUTE\n\nHong Kong\n\nMINUTE. \nMr. Harman 1/14/20 \nMr. Bernett. 1/2/ \nMr. Grindle. \nSir H. Lambert. \nSir H. Read. \nSir G. Fiddes. \nCol. Amery \nLord Milner,\n\nThe text appears to be a draft minute from Hong Kong, involving several individuals with dates. The names and dates are somewhat clear, suggesting a historical document related to administrative or governmental proceedings.\n\n## Potential Corrections and Observations\n\n1. The presence of \"DRAFT. Hong Kong Jo Stubb MINUTE.\" suggests a document title or header, potentially related to a meeting or official record.\n\n2. The list of names with dates (e.g., \"Mr. Harman 1/14/20\") could indicate signatures or approvals with corresponding dates.\n\n3. The text \"that of the ... of rabies\" might be part of a discussion or report on the disease, possibly in the context of public health.\n\n4. References to \"the handon fazette\" could be a misrecognition of \"the Hong Kong Gazette,\" a historical publication.\n\nGiven the constraints and the nature of the input, a detailed proofreading as per the rules is not feasible without a clearer, more coherent source text. The output is thus limited to basic observations and potential corrections where the original text is intelligible.\n\nPage information and other metadata, if present in the original scan, should be preserved. However, the input text does not clearly delineate such information in a standard format.\n\nTo follow the instructions precisely and given the limitations of the input text, further processing is constrained.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-462 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1920 [7-10].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 484766, "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": "CO129-463 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1920 [10-12]", "page_number": 144, "title": "CO129-463 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1920 [10-12]", "content_text": "At Siong\n\n143\n\nmo\n\nAusd 20081\n\nDRAFT.\n\nMong\n\nNS 15\n\nTw.

Moller and Company (Hongkong) Ltd. His method of dividing potential liabilities among a number of one ship limited liability companies had obvious advantages from his point of view, as his creditors discovered later.\n\n5.\n\nAt the end of the war Mr. Moller was possessed of very considerable means, but his subsequent management of his affairs was not successful. Creditors began to ask questions and Mr. Moller, who to all appearances was still a rich man, looked round for a scape-goat and chose the Hongkong Government, which might be trusted not to have recourse to the inconvenient retort of a libel action, and even, if Mr. Moller's luck held, might not retort at all. The case made out against the Hongkong Government was sufficiently plausible to gain wide acceptance, more especially as it had the support of Mr. Burkill,\n\n6.\n\nMr. Burkill is a man of quite different type, and is generally well spoken of in Shanghai where he has a considerable import and export business. Prior to the war he had no experience in matters connected with shipping, and it is widely suggested that his present association with Mr. Moller is due to his ignorance of the subject.\n\nI have the honour to be,\n\nMy Lord Duke,\n\nYour Grace's most obedient humble servant,\n\n7.2.
