PRIME MINISTER'S STATEMENT. DESIRE FOR PEACE.\n\nTimes Time 16 WESTMINSTER, MONDAY.\n\nThe Socialist Party gave the Chinese rioters the gratuitous advertisement of expending all Monday's store of energy in insinuative inquiry as to the wrongs they have suffered and inflicted.\n\nThe available information, tapped by Ms. TREVELYAN, MR. LAWSON, and others, bubbled inexhaustibly from Mr. Samuel,\n\nThe primary cause of the riots, he said, was general industrial unrest of some months standing in the Japanese mills at Shanghai. The proximate cause was the killing of a Chinese employee in the latter, after the murder of a Japanese mill manager. But the immediate result was a joint and murderous attack by workmen and students upon the police-station, which was also an armoury. The police had fired, after due warning, to save their own lives and to prevent the crowd seizing arms. There had been 21 Chinese killed and 65 wounded. One foreigner had also been wounded.\n\n\"Any police?\" asked MR. LANSBURY eagerly. \"I hope not,\" retorted MR. SAMUEL in his best and shortest reply of the day.\n\n\"The whole trouble is due to the employment of children under 11,\" shouted MR. WILL THORNE. Subsequent explosions from his colleagues reduced the age to eight. MR. JACK JONES already saw the hidden hand of capitalism moving battleships to save the exploiters from the penalty of their crimes. MR. SAMUEL patiently endeavoured to extinguish these blazes with a stream of placid volubility.\n\nIt was true that labour conditions in the mills were deplorable, judged by our standards, but they were better in the British Concession than anywhere else. The British community, with the full assistance of the British Consul-General and the British Government, though possessing no control over the labour conditions in the Concessions, had secured the putting down of an ameliorative regulation for discussion by the Shanghai Council in April. There had been no quorum, but the matter would have come before the Council on June 2 but for the outbreak.\n\nMR. LOOKER, a resident of many years in China, came to Mr. Samuel's rescue with the statement that the British mills did enforce similar regulations of their own, and SIR WILLIAM DAVION saw in the matter the result of \"Red\" letters reaching their destination unchallenged. But CAPTAIN GEE was rebuked by the SPEAKER for suggesting that some had reached the Socialist questioners.\n\nOnly the assurance of the complete harmony of the Treaty Powers and congratulations to their senior representative at Peking upon his able handling of the situation passed without uproar.\n\nWORK OF AGITATORS.\n\nWhen MR. TREVELYAN raised the question of disturbances at Hankow and Peking itself, the House finally heard the immediate cause of the whole series. The general unrest had been exploited by agitators, and the Chinese authorities had entirely failed to cooperate in taking timely measures to deal with it.\n\nThe situation at Hankow, where an attack on the British Concession had resulted in 10 Chinese casualties, and whither a British warship had been dispatched, was still serious, that at Peking was not.\n\nThis brought up Mr. MacDonald to beg that every effort should be made to prevent the riots from developing into an \"international conflict with China.\"\n\nMR. BALDWIN at once repeated his earnest assurances of last week that peace in China was the chief objective of all our efforts. The root cause of the whole trouble was the non-existence of a strong Chinese Government.\n\nWe must protect the lives of foreigners both on the coast and inland. But the dispatch of foreign and Chinese investigators to Shanghai, whose inquiry would, he believed, be quite harmonious, gave ground for some hope that the unrest might be appeased and the way opened for the Treaty Powers to negotiate a stable settlement with China at a tariff conference, a conference which, he trusted, would lead to the formation of a strong central Government in China, capable of dealing with such troubles itself.\n\nMR. BALDWIN'S ASSURANCE DESIRE TO SECURE PEACE IN CHINA.\n\nMr. TREVELYAN (Newcastle, Central, Lab.) asked the Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs whether he could give any information as to the nature and extent of the disturbances at Hankow and the loss of life ensuing; whether there was any trouble in Peking; and whether, besides moving troops and ships of war, the Government had begun to make any proposals for removing the root causes of the widespread ill-will manifested in China to certain foreign nationalities.\n\nMr. A. M. SAMUEL: On June 11 there was a riot at Hankow by a large and violent mob, which, I regret to say, killed one Japanese subject and badly wounded two. The riot culminated in a determined attack on the British concession. Firing only took place in the last resort after the use of the fire-hose had failed; it resulted in 16 casualties, of which two were fatal. His Majesty's Consul reports that the firing was necessary and inevitable. Had the Chinese authorities cooperated promptly with the defence force, this deplorable loss of life would have been avoided; when they eventually did so, the situation became easier.\n\nAll the foreign naval forces present cooperated in the defence of the British, French, and ex-Russian concessions at Hankow. The situation there still gives cause for anxiety, but relief was reported yesterday to be due shortly from Nanking, and will later be replaced by H.M.S. Despatch.\n\nI have no official information as to the strikes in foreign factories in Hankow which, according to newspaper reports, have been occurring for some time past, and which apparently were the immediate occasion of the disturbance, but it is clear that the Hankow disturbances are similar in nature to those at Shanghai, that is to say, they are a symptom of a deep and widespread unrest exploited by interested parties—to stir up feeling against those foreign Powers which, precisely because they are the Powers with the largest interests in China, are deeply concerned to cooperate with her in the task of progress and reform.\n\nThere have been, and there continue to be, demonstrations by students at Peking, but they are not considered to be dangerous.\n\nIn the opinion of His Majesty's Government, the surest remedy for the ill-will towards foreign nationalities now being manifested in China will lie in an attempt on the part of the Treaty Powers to give practical effect to the spirit of the decisions reached at the Washington Conference, a spirit which contemplated the cooperation of China and the Powers in measures beneficial to China as a whole.\n\nHis Majesty's Government, now and for some time past, have been considering the best means of overcoming the difficulties that militate against the success of any such attempt. Those difficulties—and this may be said without any desire to apportion responsibility—arise largely from the absence of effective Governmental authority in China.\n\nHis Majesty's Government trust that the approaching Tariff Conference will afford an opportunity for removing such obstacles, for dissipating the present atmosphere of unhappy distrust, and for inaugurating a new era of fruitful cooperation between China and the Powers.\n\nMr. W. THORNE (Plaistow, Lab.): Is the hon. gentleman aware that one of the causes why many of us are taking a deep interest in this Shanghai business is that we were exploited when we were 18 years of age?\n\nMr. A. M. SAMUEL: We all take an interest in it. We all desire the peace and prosperity of China, and His Majesty's Government will do all they can to assist China towards that end.\n\nMr. MACDONALD (Aberavon, Lab.): May I ask if the Government is quite satisfied that it is taking, in cooperation with the other Allies, every step possible to prevent this disturbance changing its features into a really big international trouble in the Far East?\n\nMr. BALDWIN: I can certainly assure the House that that is the case. We are watching the situation most anxiously, and, as I believe was announced to the House, the Treaty Powers represented at Peking have sent a Commission of Inquiry to Shanghai to investigate and to report with all speed.\n\nThe Chinese Government have sent two high officials to conduct a similar inquiry, and I have every reason to believe that these two inquiries will work together in perfect harmony and with a desire to attain the same end, which is peace in China, and enable us to take the steps which have been foreshadowed to try to come to an arrangement on the internal tariffs, which may help in the consolidation of a Chinese Government, the absence of which, whatever other cause there may be, is one of the root causes, at any rate, of the present trouble, and of why it is so difficult to grapple, as a Central Government would be able to grapple, with troubles of this sort.\n\nMr. MACDONALD: May we be assured that the Government's position is not only, however absolutely essential it is, to protect life, but also to remove the very serious political troubles in China?\n\nMr. BALDWIN: We do not lose sight of that. One of the difficulties is that it is an essential duty, at a time like this, so far as we are able, to protect the lives of the European people, not only in the port towns, but it may be inland in China.\n\nMr. W. THORNE: Remove the cause.\n\nThe position is extremely difficult, but I can assure the House that the Government will do everything it can to secure the end we all desire.\n\nMR. A. CHAMBERLAIN'S RETURN.\n\nMr. BALDWIN, replying to ST-COM-Mandant Kenworthy, said the Foreign Secretary (Mr. A.

Reserve\n\nre\n\n## Step 1\nThe task requires proofreading OCR output of historical records related to Hong Kong, transforming the text into standard Markdown, correcting spelling errors, fixing spacing issues, rejoining broken sentences, restoring paragraph breaks, indicating missing words, and following specific formatting rules.\n\n## Step 2\nThe given text appears to be a mix of articles, news, and advertisements from a newspaper, likely the South China Morning Post, dated October 23, 1931. The text includes various topics such as legislative council meetings, budget debates, international news, and advertisements.\n\n## Step 3\nTo begin proofreading, we first need to identify and correct obvious OCR errors, such as misrecognized characters, incorrect spacing, and broken words.\n\n## Step 4\nUpon examining the text, numerous OCR errors are evident, including misspellings like \"zivil Hrvata\" which should be corrected to \"civil servants,\" \"éézust ruta\" to \"certain route,\" and \"kačzoaning\" to a more plausible word, possibly \"causing.\"\n\n## Step 5\nThe text also contains formatting issues, such as incorrect paragraph breaks and missing or extra spaces. For example, \"Page 13. „Duging yesterday'ı, Kadynt debati\" should be formatted as a header or title indicating a page break and the start of a new section or article.\n\n## Step 6\nSome sentences are broken across lines or columns without logical reason, and these need to be rejoined. For instance, sentences discussing the budget debate and legislative council decisions are fragmented and require reassembly.\n\n## Step 7\nThe text includes advertisements and news articles that need to be formatted correctly. Advertisements like \"Start-Rite Shoes\" and \"PEBECO TOOTH-PASTE\" should be identified and formatted as such.\n\n## Step 8\nFile references and page numbering need to be formatted according to the rules. For example, \"XCR (85)72\" should be \"XCR(85)72,\" and \"Page XX\" lines should be preserved as they are, indicating page breaks.\n\n## Step 9\nGiven the complexity and the volume of the text, a detailed, line-by-line correction is necessary to ensure accuracy and adherence to the specified formatting rules.\n\n## Step 10\nThe final output should be in HTML format using for paragraphs and \n only when necessary, without including markdown or code fences.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\nPage 13. „During yesterday's, Kadynt debate\n\nCod dem not the proposal, 14 ver the pay of sterling-peld civil servants at certain ruta af sochasDa asi anked fer KE KEPONIE PODKL Awan takım oy an Ammand-maxi, which was Zen, and the Brages ww carried\n\nPage 14\n\nUnofficial members of the Legislative Council\n\nFor the purpose of balancing the budget\n\nBetween the District Officer, Coast and the inhabitants' bone where he met tarday approved, caution fr North of people—savants, buningan | varying tobaccoena duchas, causing the a patamal degree where exte They reduction affects part of | magsales, lawyers, artista, bazzara | duties on light via and imponing a irritation would have been par- the Army and leave saulker per- and above all the economy of the duty on non-intrecasting latach, donable.
