The task requires correcting these errors, reformatting the text, and making it readable in Markdown.\n\n## Step 2: Identify and correct obvious OCR errors and typos.\nUpon closer inspection, it's clear that the text is heavily distorted. Words and numbers are mixed and do not form coherent sentences or paragraphs. The first step is to identify any recognizable patterns or words.\n\n## Step 3: Look for recognizable patterns or words within the distorted text.\nUpon examination, there are no clear, recognizable English sentences or paragraphs. The text seems to be a mix of random characters, words, and numbers, possibly due to severe OCR errors or the original text being in a different language or format that was not correctly recognized.\n\n## Step 4: Attempt to reconstruct or correct the text based on the given guidelines.\nGiven the guidelines, the task is to correct the text flow, preserve paragraph structure, and correct unambiguous OCR spelling errors. However, the provided text does not seem to contain coherent paragraphs or sentences that can be corrected or reconstructed into meaningful English text.\n\n## Step 5: Consider the possibility that the text is not in English or is heavily corrupted.\nThe presence of characters like \"Š\", \"Ė\", and text in a non-English script (e.g., \"માં સ\") suggests that the original document may contain multiple languages or scripts. The text \"COPOZITE REJATELEE BOZQ KUZU\" and other parts do not form recognizable English words.\n\n## Step 6: Apply the rules for handling non-English text and missing or corrupted text.\nFor text that is clearly not English or is heavily corrupted, the guidelines suggest preserving the original content as much as possible and not translating text between languages.\n\n## Step 7: Since the text is unintelligible and does not follow a logical structure, determine the best course of action based on the guidelines.\nThe guidelines emphasize preserving the original content and correcting obvious errors. However, the text provided is too distorted to apply these rules effectively.\n\n## Step 8: Output the text in Markdown format as per the guidelines.\nGiven the text is not coherent and does not seem to be correctable into a meaningful English text, and considering the rules about preserving original content and not adding commentary, the output should reflect the original text as closely as possible in Markdown format.\n\n\nCOPOZITE REJATELEE BOZQ KUZU\n\nTOT art barv.uk BUTAMITED orionagon um vo CRATIT\n\n3.5...\n\nLeker:\n\nJDS ON\n\n3'015 00\n\nTAG\n\nMLINK\n\nMASON.

The building was filled to overflowing, many of the Chinese inhabitants of the neighbourhood being present.\n\nHis Excellency arrived at 3 P.M., when some 200 boys, representing the prize boys of 29 different Government Schools, were in waiting, together with their Masters. When the Governor had taken his seat, the Inspector of Schools, Dr. EITEL, addressed His Excellency as follows:\n\nMay it please Your Excellency, The Masters and pupils of the Government Schools of this Colony, outside the Central School, are here assembled to-day to receive the rewards and prizes allotted to them for the year 1879. The rewards to be given to the Masters are grants of $25 and $15 which have been sanctioned, since the year 1877, by the Secretary of State for annual distribution among those Masters of Government Schools whose schools are classed for the year as \"very good\" or as \"good\" respectively. In the present case I have, on the basis of my periodical inspections and of the annual examinations, determined upon the following classification.\n\n#### I.

We have therefore now four schools, outside the Central School, in which English is being taught by the Government. Taking these Anglo-Chinese Schools first, I found that the English School kept by Mr. FUNG FU in Third Street, Sai-ying-pún, had to be classed as the best school. I am sure that the results which the examination of this school disclosed are fully equal to the results of teaching given at the Central School in corresponding classes. But I must explain that this school was at work all the year on the optional principle which, with Your Excellency's permission, I applied to this school as an experiment, that the school was opened at the beginning of 1879 with some 61 pupils, that at first the parents of...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-187 - Governor Hennessy - 1880 [1-4].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 305457, "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": "CO129-187 - Governor Hennessy - 1880 [1-4]", "page_number": 198, "title": "CO129-187 - Governor Hennessy - 1880 [1-4]", "content_text": "# 2106 February, 1880.\n\n## Loverna M.

If His Excellency would allow him, he would first read the address in Chinese and afterwards request Dr. ETTEL to read the translation.

The average price paid in those places for a good-looking woman, 16 to 18 years old is, as far as my information goes, $350. Another source causing a demand occasionally supplied by kidnapping is the system of adoption and the system of domestic servitude, but as generally only young children are thus bought, the average price is, I am told, only $40, yet the demand being large and the age of the children required low, there is evidently, in spite of the low price, strong cause to suppose that the abuses naturally connected with these systems of adoption and domestic servitude tend to encourage kidnapping. As to the system of concubinage practised by Chinese, the average price a Chinaman here pays for a concubine is, I am told, about $100. But this demand is generally supplied by an arrangement of mutual consent with the woman concerned and her parents, or by an equally voluntary bargain with the woman and her so-called pocket-mother (often a brothel keeper), yet it may occasionally be supplied by kidnapping, though rarely. Brothels also form a source, creating a demand supplied by kidnapping, but I believe, Hongkong brothels dare not, unless in very peculiar cases, purchase kidnapped girls because the girls form so many acquaintances ready to betray the facts of the case to the friends of kidnapped girls. Besides these brothels have their own sources of supply. As to Chinese women kept by foreigners, the practice formerly obtained largely to buy a girl out and out, or in other words, redeeming her and giving her back her freedom by paying from $300 to $600 to her pocket-mother or owner. During the last 10 years this practice has very much decreased and may be said to be almost extinct in Hongkong whilst it lingers yet to a small extent among foreign residents at the Treaty Ports. The prevailing practice is now merely to pay a kept woman a fixed sum from $10 to $50 per mensem, whether she be her own mistress or owned by a so-called pocket-mother. The system of monthly payment has, I am confident, no connection whatever with kidnapping. To a certain extent, however, though small, the practice of buying a girl out and out still exists. The prices paid in buying a girl out and out are, as far as my information goes, from $200 to $500 in the case of a Chinese girl, and from $400 to $1,200 in the case of a half-cast girl. In all these cases buying a girl is virtually giving her back her freedom, the money being paid, on a deed made out in Chinese, to the pocket-mother, and the girl afterwards receives from $10 to $50 per mensem from the foreigner who keeps her. The buying of half-cast girls, high as the prices are, has, I am sure, no connection with and no influence whatever on kidnapping. The buying of Chinese girls, at prices ($200 to $500) higher than those paid by Chinese for their wives and concubines, may have an influence encouraging kidnapping, but it can only be indirectly. A kidnapped girl sold to a foreigner would be sure to get her kidnappers into trouble. I am therefore inclined to think that the high prices paid by foreigners for kept women have no appreciable influence in the way of increasing the demand supplied by kidnapping. In short I believe that kidnapping is caused almost entirely by the demand for Chinese girls outside the Colony of Hongkong and is fostered by that defect of the law which allows a ship to take 20 female passengers without their coming at all under the cognizance of the Emigration Officer, as I pointed out in an opinion I gave on C.S.O. 2616 of 1879.\n\n2. What becomes of these women and their children?\n\nThe women kept by foreigners in Hongkong are, as a rule, rather raised in their own esteem by the connection, of the immorality of which they have no idea; they are also, as a rule, better off than the concubines of Chinese well-to-do merchants; they are generally provided for, by the foreigners who kept them, when the connection is severed, and at any rate these women are as a rule thrifty, and always manage to save money which they invest in Bank deposits, also in house property, but principally in buying female infants whom they rear for sale to or concubinage with foreigners, by which they generally gain a competency in about 10 years.\n\nThe children of these women are invariably sent to school. In fact these women understand the value of education and prize it far more than respectable Chinese women do. The boys are invariably sent to the Government Central School where they generally distinguish themselves, and as a rule these boys obtain good situations in Hongkong, in the open ports and abroad. The girls crowd into the schools kept by Missionary Societies. These children are generally provided with a small patrimony by their putative fathers. They dress almost invariably in Chinese costume and adopt Chinese customs, unless they are taken up by ill-advised agents of foreign charity. I am quite positive, as far as my experience and the information I received from many gentlemen in the best position to judge goes, that they do not in any way resemble the mean whites in the Southern States of America.\n\nI regret I have to contradict so flatly on this point the statement of His Lordship the Chief Justice which is in my opinion based on insufficient information, but justice and truth demand it.\n\n3. Are the placards referring to run-away female servants obnoxious?\n\nI am quite sure that the Chief Justice's opinion regarding these placards has been formed on the basis of a bad translation. Besides these placards are issued on account of the responsibility the owners of a servant girl incur vis-à-vis the parents of the girl, if she cannot be found.\n\nFor the parents are by Chinese law and custom entitled to prosecute the owners for damages if the latter cannot prove that they have used reasonable diligence to find the run-away girl again.\n\n1st November, 1879.\n\nE.

The Colony borrowed £25,000 for the Colombo Harbour under ordinance of 1875. You will see an account of the loan at page 9 of the Estimates. The colony paid 5 percent interest and 1 1⁄2 percent sinking fund - 8 1⁄2 per cent in total.\n\nThe Governor of Hong Kong is therefore in error when stating that the money was borrowed at high interest by the Commissioners. If I have spoken to M. Blake, but you may Confidential Despatch no. 23 Aug.\n\nA loan borrowed from the Public Works Loan Commissioners would presumably entail an immediate Sinking Fund at 2 1⁄2 percent, and as the Crown Agents fund will probably be able to borrow at 4 1⁄2 percent with one percent Sinking Fund; there would, therefore, be no object in applying to the Public Works Loan Commissioners unless they have lowered their terms since 1875.\n\nThey would waste time; a note to that effect would seem the best course to negative this scheme at once. Application to the Treasury on the subject but it would probably only result in a negative response.\n\nWe might at any rate make private enquiries as to the present dealings of these loan commissioners and have his views direct from Ion Lucas, like `$73`.\n\nThe English Public Works Loan Commissioners have no standing authority beyond the UK & the Colonies. In the case of Colombo Dockyard (and Galle Dockyard) there are Acts of Parliament that have paved the way.\n\nYou had better look there ups. The loan in the former case was based, I think, on the consideration that there was one of Imperial importance. The Colony's works are not of this category. It is said that Mr. O'Brien Andrews has put down £15,000 to fall into the error of suffering that the money has lent at 3 1⁄2 per cent interest.

O.\n\nThe Daily Press.\n\nHONGKONG, JANUARY 19TH, 1894.\n\nA BRITISH DOLLAR FOR THE FAR EAST.\n\nITS COINAGE RECOMMENDED BY THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.\n\nThe following report by the Special Committee appointed by the Chamber of Commerce to consider the expediency of coining a British dollar has been forwarded to us for publication.\n\nHongkong, 18th January, 1894.\n\nThe Chairman, Hongkong General Chamber of Commerce,\n\nDear Sir,-We, the undersigned, were appointed a Committee, pursuant to a resolution of a special general meeting of the Hongkong General Chamber of Commerce, held on the 12th July, 1893, \"to enquire into and report on the desirability, in the interests of trade, of the coinage of a British dollar equal in weight and fineness to the Mexican dollar, for circulation in the colony of Hongkong concurrently with the dollars which are now legal tender,\" and we have now, after full enquiry and consideration, to report as follows:-\n\nWe find that the Mexican dollar and the Hongkong Government dollar are the only legal tender in the colony, and that the supply of Mexican dollars in the London and American markets has very considerably diminished during the past six months. This is chiefly due to the heavy fall in the gold price of silver since the closing of the Indian Mints to the free coining of silver on the 26th June, 1893, and to the repeal of the Sherman Act in the United States on 21st October last. The Mexican exchange has been unable to adapt itself to the serious decline in the price of silver, Mexican dollars continue extremely scarce, insufficient for the requirements of the trade of the Colony, and there is no likelihood of any increase in the supply under present circumstances. The scarcity of Mexican dollars has seriously reduced the circulating medium in Hongkong, has been highly inconvenient and may very easily at any moment become dangerous. The Hongkong Government dollar is now practically out of circulation, and appliances no longer exist for the coinage thereof.\n\nThe Japanese Government have on 16th October last, under Imperial Ordinance No. 103, appointed a Committee of Currency Investigation to enquire into the origin and general results in the relative value of gold and silver, the effects produced thereby upon the economy of Japan, \"whether any change should be made in the present currency system of Japan, and if such change be considered necessary, what currency unit should be adopted.\" What this committee may report it is impossible to say; it may decide to recommend to discontinue the coinage of Japanese yen. In that case, we are of opinion that it would be most expedient to recommend the legalization of the Japanese yen in Hongkong at present, in view of the great uncertainties which exist in connection therewith.\n\nFrom enquiries made of the Mint Master in London, it appears that his appliances, without costly additions, would not allow of his undertaking the coinage of a British dollar at all times, while the seignorage charged by the Mint authorities in Birmingham would be so costly, for the present, as to be practically prohibitive.\n\nWe are given to understand the Indian Government is prepared to coin a British dollar at the Bombay Mint, and that the charge for seignorage will be 1 per cent, or thereabouts.\n\nUnder the circumstances we are clearly of opinion that it is imperatively necessary in the interests of the trade of the colony, and otherwise, that immediate action should be taken in the direction of the coinage and legalization of a British dollar, equal in weight and fineness to the Mexican dollar, for circulation in the colony of Hongkong concurrently with the dollars which are now legal tender.\n\nWe are, dear sir, your most obedient servants,\n\nJ.

However, the output should be in HTML using `` for paragraphs.\n\n## Step 4: Analyze the given text\nThe text is a jumbled mix of characters, place names, and what appears to be a guide or map information. It includes English and Chinese text, with some words and characters that are not clearly legible or are mixed up due to OCR errors.\n\n## Step 5: Determine the output format\nDespite the instruction to output in HTML, the initial steps and rules suggest a Markdown formatting approach. However, the final output must be in HTML.\n\n## Step 6: Begin proofreading\nGiven the complexity and the mixed nature of the text, the first step involves identifying and correcting obvious OCR errors, such as misspelled words, incorrect spacing, and broken characters.\n\n## Step 7: Reorganize the text\nThe text seems to be a collection of place names, geographical features, and possibly touristic information. Reorganizing it into a coherent structure while maintaining the original content is essential.\n\n## Step 8: Correct specific errors and format\nCorrecting \"San-on-in\" to \"San-on-in\" (no change needed), \"Pakshel\" to \"Pak Shel\", \"Tho-tsun\" to \"Tho-tsun\" (no change), and other similar corrections. Also, reformatting tables and lists, and ensuring that file references are correctly formatted without spaces.\n\n## Step 9: Address the specific requirements for output\nSince the output needs to be in HTML and the input is a complex mix of text, the focus should be on preserving the original information while correcting errors and improving readability.\n\n## Step 10: Realize the complexity of direct conversion\nDirectly converting the given text into a coherent HTML format while correcting OCR errors and following the specific rules provided is highly complex due to the text's nature and the mix of languages.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\nSan-on-in \n\nPakshel \n\n'Tho-tsun \n\nyung \n\nCheung-ha \n\nKen-diau \n\n+++ Ma-Eck-we \n\n*** \n\nTaishan 1. \n\nTun-tan O \n\nAcung· \n\nChili wan \n\n...\n\nathaches were \n\n25 ft \n\ndelivered nu \n\ntobili \n\nA \n\nItalim now being \n\n& perpred \n\nItation \n\n47 \n\nbuilt \n\nhow the \n\nMing Couchuulid \n\nAAA \n\nhivshad \n\nWan ha \n\n# \n\n22ft \n\nisft \n\n+ \n\nSai-he \n\ndeung-chi hok \n\nMud banks \n\njuf't \n\nBluck rink \n\nDEEP \n\nBAY \n\nSha-ho \n\nShut-mi \n\nSan-tau \n\nOyster \n\nbeds \n\nKong ho \n\nWony-Bang \n\nShek-ha \n\nShui Woi \n\nMud \n\nM u d \n\n banks \n\nNgai hem \n\n-the Lad \n\nSan Wai \n\nTai-slati \n\nNam-vita \n\nis not \n\nPale-long \n\nTuk \n\nTang-ku 1. \n\ndang \n\nShiu-chau \n\nLang \n\nNot wai \n\nba \n\n\" \n\n$ \n\nLong-Ising \n\nf \n\nM \n\nShap-pal hening \n\nTaising \n\nHa-mi \n\nWang-chan \n\nShe \n\n6/ \n\nHa-Tu \n\nSa's Kha \n\nTang-shan... \n\n** Chrung uk-tuz \n\n• Piany shan+a \n\nGrewing po \n\nKak \n\nIn \n\nPaddy \n\n1 d \n\nVin-long-hi \n\nPak-ut. \n\nCheung-ah-chann \n\n0 \n\nYou-tin \n\nTi-same \n\nLo-ún \n\nShan Tung wi \n\nCL \n\n@Sui-hang O \n\nTing du wei \n\n*Tong-x-uni \n\nSt-Lin \n\n2000 \n\nThe TOURISTS GUIDE \n\nwith \n\nto HONG \n\nKONG \n\nSHORT TRIPS to the MAINLAND of CHINA \n\nREFERENCES \n\nPROGRAMMES \n\n℗ Mandarin Station & Village.

Major Browne has returned and his account of the action is that the Chinese had chosen their positions well and that if they had only fired well the British troops would have fared very badly.\n\nBrowne is wounded slightly; and so is another man. No other casualties on our side. The casualties on the Chinese side cannot be ascertained, but some men have been killed. Captain Simmonds is stationed at San Uk tsai in a position commanding both valleys, Berger wishes to advance to-morrow.\n\nI am strongly of opinion that the most effective manner of dealing with the situation is for the troops to be landed from Hong Kong at Castle Peak and for them and Berger to advance simultaneously whilst the \"Fane\" could cooperate from Deep Bay.\n\nThe leading villages which have been chiefly instrumental in creating the disturbance are Kam Tin, Ha Tsun, Un Long, and Ping Shan. My information is that these villages are determined to resist. I think they should be brought to reason, especially Kam Tin, which is an old offender.\n\nSo far as I can ascertain, the Chinese soldiers who engaged our troops are not regulars, but some...\n\nPage ...\n\n \n# Note that as per the instructions, I corrected spelling errors (e.g., \"HongKong\" to \"Hong Kong\", \"on-sualties\" to \"casualties\"), fixed spacing issues, and rejoined broken sentences.

On the 17th ultimo at 4 p.m., very heavy hostile Artillery fire was heard from the direction of Chung Uk Tsun. Captain Berger, with 250 men of the Hong Kong Regiment, had already gone to Shelter Trench Hill (the Chinese had constructed here a very creditable two-hour shelter trench made on orthodox principles, evidently under Military supervision) to dislodge the enemy who had taken up a position with guns on the crest of Wa Mi Hill and who had been firing at our camp, at 2500 yards range for some time. He swung to the left, entered the village of Fong Ma Po, closely followed by Lieut Barrett with a reserve comprising soldiers of the Hong Kong Regiment.\n\nBerger soon became hotly engaged, his force with the Reserve was amply sufficient to meet all eventualities, and I left him full control of the infantry. He carried out the work in a most praiseworthy soldierly manner.\n\nI now ascertained that the enemy was retiring slowly in a S.W. direction through the Lam Tsuen Valley, keeping up a hot Artillery and Rifle fire. I sent word to Captain Simonds to co-operate with Berger with his guns. Simonds unfortunately took a wrong turn, moving East towards Fanling instead of to the S.W. He afterwards explained that he had got his guns to Pong Ma Po, that his coolies were weary, that night was coming on, and", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-292 - Governor Sir Blake - 1899 [6-8].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 372434, "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": "CO129-292 - Governor Sir Blake - 1899 [6-8]", "page_number": 429, "title": "CO129-292 - Governor Sir Blake - 1899 [6-8]", "content_text": "DRAFT.\n\n1.

It was at the same time fully conceded that before long the Colony would have to face the necessity of setting aside a very large sum annually for the purpose of keeping the harbour properly dredged; but that the larger portion of the Revenues of the Colony would probably be required for some time to come in connection with questions of Public Health including schemes for increasing the water supply and sanitation, which were recognised to be of immediate and vital necessity to the prosperity and welfare of the Colony. Moreover, as it appeared to be of great importance to the Navy that at least certain portions of the harbour should be dredged, and as the Vice-Admiral had himself acknowledged that as a Naval base in the Far East, Hongkong was of indispensable imperial importance, it was urged on behalf of the Colonial Government that the Admiralty should, when the time came, take its full share in providing funds for so costly an undertaking.\n\nThe Vice-Admiral pointed out that though the proposal for removing shoals in the harbour did in a sense emanate from the Navy, it was put forward in order to show that the real though perhaps at first undiscerned cause of the wish to improve the lighting of the harbour waters was a connection of the dangers due to the existence of shoal water in certain places within it. His Excellency laid stress on the fact that had there been perfectly clear water inside, the proposals to improve the lighting, which had been referred to him would not have been made,\n\nHis Excellency also declined to admit that the object of the builders of the new deep docks already referred to would be met by deepening the immediate approaches to the docks. It might be taken as certain that they were providing, a time when very large ships would frequent the port and be likely to find docks capable of receiving them a necessity. His view was that while it would be a convenience to the Navy to have the area of deep water in Hongkong harbour increased, it was vital to the future prosperity of the port that the increasing size of Merchant Steamers should be recognised in time, as it had been probably in every other great port in the world. After some discussion it was unanimously agreed that the Government should communicate on the matter with the Chamber of Commerce, informing them that His Excellency the Vice-Admiral had expressed the conviction that it would be necessary to dredge the harbour in the very remote future, especially in the eastern part of it.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-311 - Acting Governor Major Gen Sir Gascoigne - 1902 [5-7].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 386184, "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": "CO129-313 - Governor Sir Blake - 1902 [10-12]", "page_number": 264, "title": "CO129-313 - Governor Sir Blake - 1902 [10-12]", "content_text": "## Sir J. Anderson's Memo\n\nHis Excellency,\n\nAs I read the Circulars of 9 Oct 1901 and 26 June 1902, it was suggested that Colonial governments should take steps to secure their having a monopoly of wireless telegraphy in time of war and of public emergency - which of course covers war and the usual period of crisis or unrest which precedes its outbreak.\n\nIt was in this assumption that I circulated the recent Straits paper on this subject. In the Straits, the Gov. in Council has power to take over all telegraphs in time of public emergency. There is no such power in Hong Kong.\n\nIf, however, the real intention is that Colonial governments should have a monopoly at all times, clearly no Crown Colony (least of all one which is also a treaty port) should put any patents with respect to wireless telegraphy into force without first coming to terms with the would-be patentees for the Government thereof.\n\nI do not agree with the 2 pars. at the top of page 2 of the A-G's Report. If the Imperial Govt acquire by agreement with the patentees the right to use an English patent, which has effect in the UK and the Isle of Man, surely they acquire the right to use that particular patent only in the UK and the Isle of Man and not throughout Her dominions. The patentees cannot agree to allow the Imperial Govt a more extensive use than they have hitherto. The colonies, therefore, require separate grants of patents and separate agreements are necessary.\n\nIf the intention is to secure a monopoly in time of public emergency only, it might be sufficient if Hong Kong were to pass an Ordinance on the lines of the Straits Telegraphs Ordinance 7 of 1895 Part II.\n\nIf, however, the intention is to secure a standing monopoly, the Col. Govt must come to terms with the patentees.\n\nWhat is required is not merely control in time of war but a power of regulation in time of peace as well.\n\nThe Patent need not be cancelled. What is necessary is to pass an Ordinance stating that no one may erect or use an installation for the purpose of wireless telegraphy without a license from the Governor, and that the Governor may grant such license subject to such conditions as he may from time to time be found necessary for the public interest.\n\nI agree, subject to this, that if the Govt wants to use the invention which is the subject of a patent in force in the Colony, it has the sole right to use it on payment of compensation to the patentee for the use thereof. This is an equitable position consonant with the British Patent Law.\n\nThe Govt would not be justified, in my opinion, in refusing letters patent for a grant... \n\nFB & L (x)—50654—3000-12-01 \n2.S.R. 15/12 \n51040-3000-3-02", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-313 - Governor Sir Blake - 1902 [10-12].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 386219, "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": "CO129-313 - Governor Sir Blake - 1902 [10-12]", "page_number": 299, "title": "CO129-313 - Governor Sir Blake - 1902 [10-12]", "content_text": "# DESPATCH.\n\n**C.O. 51637**\n\n## MONG KONG\n\nNo. 5/\n\n(Minutes.)\n\nGovernor.\n\nNo. Blake Lag 1902 13 Nov\n\nLast previous Paper.] 23920 Barth to Ear 142. 13589/83.\n\nNext subsequent Paper. 73589 03\n\n| Ref. | Details |\n| --- | --- |\n| WB & L | 1781-50951-90000-12-001 |\n| | 394-2000-9-03 |\n\nCalave; of Mont burners & Bullen lover particulars of recommend more Ans Mr. Collins\n\nCannet I don't think they are doing badly.

It is now quite certain that Chinese Masters, when under English supervision, can teach the rudiments of English in accordance with modern methods; and I now propose to open two Second Grade Anglo-Chinese Schools, giving instruction up to the 3rd. Standard, one at Tanglung-chau and one at Aberdeen, The people of these neighbourhoods are poor, and can hardly afford to keep their children at School more than 8 years. In those years it is proposed to teach them how to speak English, to write a simple letter in English or Chinese, simple Arithmetic, a good deal of general information, good manners. There are Government Buildings available, the one at Aberdeen being lent at present to the Church Missionary Society. I propose to put one Master at each School on a salary of $600.. \n\nFurniture and Incidental Expenses would amount to $100 at each School.\n\n.$1,200\n\nI propose further that Mr. Curwen be asked to continue the very valuable work now being done at the Normal Class by Mr. Williams, who will no longer be able to spare the time. Mr. Curwen should also visit the two new schools proposed above and give at least one morning a week to each of them. He should also supervise the Wantsai School in the way Mr. Williams is now doing. In consideration of the additional work and responsibility thus laid upon him, I think it only fair to suggest that Mr. Curwen's salary should be raised to £330 from the beginning of 1905 instead of 1906.

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.

SECTION 2. \n\n**(No. 511.)** Sir, \n\nSir J. Jordan to Sir Edward Grey.-(Received December 14.) \n\nPeking, October 30, 1907. WITH reference to my despatch No. 406 of the 16th instant, on the subject of the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze railway negotiations, I have the honour to inclose a copy of Article 18 of the draft Agreement in its revised form, whereby the Syndicate Banks are appointed agents for the railway during construction for the purchase of imported materials at a commission of 5 per cent., preference being given to goods of British and German manufacture. \n\nOn the 25th instant the Chinese yielded on the question of the price at which they should take the loan, and offered 93½. This was at once communicated to the Syndicate in London and Berlin, and on receipt of their acceptance the financial negotiations can be concluded.\n\nIn regard to the special arrangements between Germany and China for the modification of the Kiao-chau Railway Convention, the position, as explained to me officially by Mr. Liang at the Wai-wu Pu on the 29th instant, is as follows:---\n\nGermany has now agreed to consider the construction of the section of the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze Railway which will connect Chinan-fu with Tsinan, on the north-west boundary of Shantung, as fulfilling the Treaty stipulation allowing her to extend the Kiao-chau-Chinan-fu Railway to the border of the province. \n\nGermany agrees, after the signature of the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze contract, to modify her rights in regard to the Kiao-chau-Yichow line and its extension to Chinan-fu through Lai-wu Hsien. She agrees, in effect, to give up altogether the Yichow-Chinan-fu extension, and to recognize the section of the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze line running southwards from Chinan-fu as taking its place. Mr. Liang stated that this section would actually run from Chinan-fu to Yichow, but of this I do not feel quite satisfied, as it involves a large detour. She further agrees in regard to the Kiao-chau-Yichow line that, when the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze contract has been signed, she will be prepared to negotiate with China on similar terms for the construction of this railway. \n\nChina on her part agrees, with regard to the two lines running east and west, to connect the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze Railway with the Peking-Hankow Railway, referred to in Sir Ernest Satow's despatch No. 311 of the 23rd October, 1902, and Mr. Townley's No. 209 of the 29th May, 1903, that she will build these herself with Chinese capital, or, in the event of requiring foreign capital, that she will apply to Germany for a loan. \n\nFollowing upon these arrangements with Germany, the Chinese negotiator has now informed Mr. Bland that it is also desired to come to an understanding with the Chinese Central Railways (Limited) regarding the P'uk'ou-Sinyang Concession before the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze Agreement can be signed. His proposal to Mr. Bland is that the Syndicate should give a formal assurance that they will settle for this railway on the same terms as for the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze line, but without compensation for profits. \n\nMr. Bland has referred the question to his principals by telegraph, and I have informed Liang Ta-jên, who consulted me on the subject yesterday, that he can hardly expect the Syndicate to waive their rights under the Preliminary Agreement without some quid pro quo. \n\nI have, &c. \n(Signed) **J.

Jordan to Sir Edward Grey.--(Received December 28.)\n\nPeking, November 12, 1907.\n\nWHEN I wrote my despatch No. 513 of the 30th October, on the subject of the Hangchow-Soochow-Ningpo Railway, the negotiations were proceeding on the basis of the Decree of the 20th October, and two points in particular were occupying the attention of Liang Ta-jên and Mr. Bland.\n\nThe first of these was the amount of commutation to be paid to the Corporation in lieu of profit certificates. Mr. Bland claimed payment at the rate of 5 per cent. on the amount of the loan, while Liang Ta-jên pressed him to accept 4 per cent., which was the figure agreed upon in the case of the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze Railway.\n\nMr. Bland showed in favour of his claim that the sum named for the loan (1,500,000_l_.) did not represent more than 60 per cent. of the probable cost of the line, and as it had been decided that no commutation was payable in respect of supplementary loans, it was not just to bind him down in this calculation by the precedent of the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze Railway. Further, the original right of participation in the profits of the latter line, under the Preliminary Agreement, extended only over thirty years, while in the case of the Hangchow Railway it was for fifty years.\n\nThese arguments had little effect on Liang Ta-jên, who came to seek my mediation on the 2nd November. I was somewhat disinclined to become involved in a purely financial question of this nature, but Mr. Bland's contentions seemed to justify an attempt at persuading Liang Ta-jên to meet his wishes.\n\nThe result was that I induced Liang Ta-jên to agree to 4½ per cent., which gives the Corporation 67,500_l_., instead of 75,000_l_., as claimed.\n\nThe other point, raised by Liang Ta-jên, was in regard to the only other outstanding Railway Concession dating from 1898-9—the P'uk'ou-Sinyang line. The Chinese Government desired to come to an understanding with the Chinese Central Railways (Limited) that the Agreement for this line should be based upon those now under negotiation. On the 1st November Mr. Bland learnt from his Directors that they would agree to such an understanding, provided that commutation of profits was paid.\n\nMatters stood in this position, and it was arranged that the draft of the Hangchow Agreement should be initialled by both parties on the 5th November, a copy of the document based, mutatis mutandis, on the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze draft having been sent to Liang Ta-jên on the previous day.\n\nWhile Mr. Bland was occupied with Liang Ta-jên at the Wai-wu Pu on the afternoon of the 5th November, and was, as I hoped, initialling his draft Agreement, I was received in another part of the building by Yuan Shih-k'ai.\n\nAs soon as I alluded to the railway negotiations, and expressed the hope that final signature would follow quickly upon the initialling of the draft, his Excellency said that the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze Agreement must first be definitely decided upon by himself and Chang Chih-tung, and that when this was done the Hangchow Agreement could be discussed. This reply led me to think at first that perhaps his Excellency was speaking in ignorance of the progress made during the last few days, and that Liang Ta-jên had not kept him informed of his intention to initial the draft that day. But as the conversation developed, I judged, from his Excellency's nervousness of manner, that another hitch had occurred.\n\nIn reply to my insistence upon the signature of this Agreement simultaneously with or before the signature of the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze contract, his Excellency said that Prince Ching could not see his way to do this, and with much reluctance he explained that the opposition of the Chekiang gentry was still the deterrent factor, and that it had been exhibited in the desecration by a mob of Wang Ta-hsieh's ancestral graves.\n\nBeing unable to extract from his Excellency any further assurance than that efforts were being made to arrange matters amicably with the obstructionists, I returned home to find Mr. Bland, who informed me that Liang Ta-jên had refused to initial the draft, had repudiated the idea that he had ever arranged definitely to do so on that day, and \n\n[2768 ee-2]\n\n## Page 340", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-350 - Public Offices - 1908.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 416001, "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": "CO129-351 - Public Offices - 1908", "page_number": 166, "title": "CO129-351 - Public Offices - 1908", "content_text": "the railway being much higher than those paid by water-borne traffic. On the 26th December I received the Yu Chuan Pu's reply, intimating the establishment of the new Railway Department of that Board and the appointment of his Excellency Liang, who was empowered to deal with all questions arising out of the Shanghae-Nanking Railway's administration. Since that date I have had two interviews with his Excellency on the subject of li-kin. He states that the question is receiving his most serious attention, and that it is being actively discussed with the provincial authorities concerned, but that no definite arrangements are likely to be made until after introduction of the proposed new system of administration (i.e., delegation of the Board of Commissioners' powers to a Chinese Managing Director). He appears to recognize the serious responsibility which attaches to the Central Government in respect of this railway's finances, as well as its self-evident interest in its prosperity; nevertheless no steps have been taken to remedy a condition of affairs which shows absence of initiative and disregard of formal engagements on the part of the Chinese Government. As one-fifth of the profits of the line are the property of the profit-certificate holders, acquiescence by the Corporation in the present state of affairs would be a breach of trust; but so long as the Chinese Government (to whom the remainder of profits will accrue) does not see fit to apply the remedial measures, the Corporation's intervention and protests produce no appreciable result; so far as those remedial measures are concerned, the appointment of his Excellency Liang to be Director-General has effected no change in the situation.\n\nI append copy of a letter from the Corporation's Joint Agents at Shanghae, dated the 21st instant, the substance of which has been communicated to his Excellency Liang Shih-yi. The urgency of the question has been repeatedly impressed upon the Yu Chuan Pu during the past year, but that Board, as at present constituted, is notoriously inefficient.\n\nPeking, January 29, 1908.\n\n(Signed)\n\nJ.

I described in my despatch No. 33 of the 21st January the position then reached in the Hangchow-Soochow-Ningpo Railway question.\n\nMr. Bland held a meeting with the three officials deputed to bring these negotiations to a conclusion on the 24th January, when suggestions were made to him materially modifying the terms granted by China in the Tien-tsin-Puk'ou Agreement.\n\nThese modifications involved the financing of a loan by the Corporation to the Board of Communications under Imperial guarantee, and with no provincial revenue as collateral security. In place of provincial revenues the surplus earnings of other Government railways were offered as security. The Engineer-in-chief was to be entitled simply \"Engineer,\" and he was to be appointed irrespective of the Corporation's approval. The line of railway was to be changed so as to run from Shanghae to Hangchow.\n\nMr. Bland gave them no encouragement in thinking that such radical changes could be effected, yet at the ensuing meeting on the 28th January, they went further and wanted to eliminate the clause regarding the Auditor, contending that, as the railway was to be purely Chinese, the accounts would be kept in the Chinese language.\n\nMr. Bland informed them that he saw no prospect of arriving at a settlement along these lines, but agreed to receive from them a written draft embodying their proposals.\n\nThese proved so divergent from the terms of the Tien-tsin P'uk'ou Agreement that Mr. Bland, with my approval, has informed the Wai-wu Pu in the letter copy of which is inclosed that no such modifications can be accepted.\n\nThe New Year holidays are now stopping all but urgent business, so no development can be anticipated for some days. The interval will doubtless not be wasted by the provincial leaders in trying to revive public feeling against the loan.\n\nAs regards the attempted boycott at Shanghae, I received on the 23rd January from His Majesty's Consul-General a despatch, copy of which is inclosed, describing\n\nBut indications are not wanting in the native press that the spirit of opposition is not extinguished, as will be seen from the extracts included in the monthly summary.\n\nI have, &c.\n\n(Signed) J. N. JORDAN.\n\nInclosure in No. 1.\n\nMr. Bland to Wai-wu Pu.\n\nMy dear Mr. En.\n\nPeking, February 1, 1908. I received yesterday evening from the Wai-wu Pu a draft of the proposed Loan Agreement for the Soochow-Hangchow-Ningpo Railway, and have carefully examined the same.\n\nWill you be so good as to inform their Excellencies that the conditions proposed in this draft are incompatible with the issue of the loan and contrary to the assurances given by the Chinese Government in regard to this Agreement. I regret, therefore, that I am precluded from referring them to the Corporation's Directors. No such modification of the text of the Tien-tsin-Yang-tsze Railway Loan Agreement was suggested or discussed at my recent informal interviews with the Wai-wu Pu.\n\nI am informing His Majesty's Minister accordingly.\n\nBelieve me, &c.\n\n(Signed)\n\nJ.

Both upper and lower classes in Hupei are law-abiding citizens; yet it would have been unfair to take advantage of their complaisance to lay on them undue burdens. I understand that the Board of Communications intend that, in the future, railways under commercial management in all the provinces will be resumed by the officials; but there is as yet uncertainty as to the date when and the terms on which this will be carried out.\n\nUnder my scheme the capital of this section of the Ssu-chuan-Hankow Railway, no matter what the present proportion of funds provided by the officials and by the merchants is, either 25 or 30 years after the completion of the line, will be held, as in the case of the Tientsin-P'uk'ou line, by officials and merchants in the perpetual ratio of 50% each.\n\nThe Board of Communications, however, are anxious to get the control of the line into their own hands; I have ventured to object, and the discussion is now going on. For if the control reverts to the Board, the profits of the undertaking are entirely vested in them, and Hupei does not benefit a jot financially. Again, a loan made by the Board and repayable by the Board does no good to the mercantile community of the province. These two are the chief considerations for my objections to management by the Board. I do not say that the management should be left to my control; it should, I maintain, be under control of the province itself.\n\nSupposing the sanction of the Board can be procured to provincial management by Hupei, that management should be in the hands of Viceroy Ch'ên; it would be impossible for me to undertake it. Even supposing all the officials of Hupei and Ssuchuan were to request me to undertake the management of the Ssuchuan section of the Ssuchuan-Hankow Railway, it would be a great mistake.\n\nFormerly", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-353 - Public Offices - 1908.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 418252, "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": "CO129-354 - Public Offices & Others - 1908", "page_number": 202, "title": "CO129-354 - Public Offices & Others - 1908", "content_text": "201\n\nmo\n\n11447 Alare.\n\nof\n\n10.

The Chinese from the mainland on finding that they would be fined or imprisoned for spitting in this Colony would avoid Hongkong as much as possible and your Petitioners' trade and business would greatly suffer thereby.\n\nYour Petitioners also submit that it is impossible to enforce such a law in this cosmopolitan community of Hongkong; and if it were enforced, it would only create misunderstanding and stir up bad feelings without attaining the desired object for the following reasons:-\n\n(1). On account of the floating nature of the inhabitants of this Colony it is highly impracticable to make the majority of them guard themselves from offending a law against spitting which they have long regarded as a harmless habit.\n\n(2). The houses in this Colony are principally Chinese tenement houses and each house has a common entrance. The tenants of these houses would not prosecute any one against this law except out of spite.\n\n(3). There is no provision in the said Bill requiring public buildings to provide spittoons, and for want of such a provision it may lead the Chinese to think that the passing of this Bill was only a means of getting the Public Revenue increased by fines in view of the impending abolition of the Opium Farm.\n\n(4). In enforcing the law it is necessary to entrust to Police Constables the power and discretion to make immediate arrests of offenders. Although the Police Force of Hongkong is under the best of disciplines yet its members are composed of various nationalities, such as Europeans, Indians and Chinese, and it is very dangerous indeed to place into their hands such discretionary powers.\n\n...

Me 12571 is generally in agreement with her views. Except that I do not think the simple repeal of sections 5 (2)-(3) will do. It has occasioned a peculiar position (Shand only s Falklands St Helena - see my ex cond minuti on 26436/69) in that the only way to take out L.P. for there is to patent it first in the U.K. Patents granted under the Ith order are subjected to the English law of patents, both under the 1892 order (`5565`) and under the new order (`35`). This being so, it is peculiarly desirable that the new order should settle the question which the Govt. of Hong Kong has reconsidered with regard to sec 5 of the 1892 act - Doc SSC 27 of the Imperial Act of 1907 (revocation for non-working) applies to C.P. granted under the Ith order. Or, in other words, if a particular patent is worked in the U.K, is non-working in the U.K. to operate as a ground of revocation or to constitute a ground of revocation of the same patent in Hong Kong?\n\nIf you repeal the whole sec 5(2)(3), you will have this question open - In fact, the position will be worse than under that section, which applied the whole Act of 1907 in extenso. Under the old sec 5, the whole Act of 1907 was in force, the question was left open for the Court to decide whether sec 27 of the 1907 Act applied.\n\nUnder the new sec 5 (1) the question is, and these provisions are put above, I think that the new sec 5 should be amended as follows: \n- Subsec (1) should be substituted.\n- Subsec (2) and (3) \"omit.\n- Subsec * (3) should be added: \n(3) Provided that an order of revocation made under section 27 of the Act of the Imperial Parliament 7 Edw III cap 24 (\"The Patents and Designs Act 1907\") shall not operate so as to revoke, or to constitute a ground of revocation of, a patent granted under Letters Patent in this Colony under this order.\n\nThe other point I wish to make is that this act substitutes \"the Governor\" for \"Crown in Council\" for all purposes except Sec 5 of the Principal and the making of rules & regs. Perhaps the Eastern Dept would like to consider this point as the practice of substituting the Gov. for Crown in Council has been proceeded with in a rather wholesale manner lately in Hong Kong.\n\nCatt & File `OSA. 31/1`", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-357 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [7-9].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 419890, "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": "CO129-357 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [7-9]", "page_number": 436, "title": "CO129-357 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1909 [7-9]", "content_text": "# necessarily not, he revocation in the UK would [I think I must insert this revocation in the UK.

We have recently been informed by him that the progress of the railway has been greatly hampered owing to divided control and divergent views in regard to its management. This delay cannot be permitted to continue, and we therefore direct that in future the responsibility for procuring the capital, engaging employés, developing the advantages, and removing abuses in regard to this railway rests with Chang Chih-tung. Let him take a broad view of the whole situation, fix a strict limit of time for the completion of the undertaking, prepare regulations suited to the conditions existing in each of the three provinces concerned, and exercise his control and direction where necessary. The Board of Communications and the Governors-General and Governors of Hupei, Hunan, and Kuantung are required to assist him zealously, and not to hinder him in any way. The Directors and Sub-Directors appointed by the provinces must keep within the limits of their powers, and in the case of any peculation, incitement to disturbances, usurpation of authority, or other abuses on the part of any officials, gentry, or merchants connected with the railway, whereby the administration of the line is obstructed, Chang Chih-tung should at once deal with the offenders. After the issue of this Decree, Chang Chih-tung and the other officers concerned should combine to hasten the completion of the enterprise and permit no delay, so that there may be undivided control, and this important work may not be impeded.\n\n## Inclosure 2 in No. 1.\n\n**(No. 68.) Sir,**\n\n**Consul-General Fraser to Sir J. Jordan.**\n\nHankow, October 23, 1908.\n\nBEGGING reference to my despatches Nos. 62 and 65 of the 7th and 10th instant respectively, reporting his Excellency Chang Chih-tung's intervention in the question of the building of Hupei railways to Yochou and to Ichang, I have the honour to forward copies and translations of further telegrams from his Excellency to the Wachang authorities, and to report that the local native papers are full of protests against a foreign loan by leading gentry and by Hupei students in Japan.\n\nOn the 20th instant a mass meeting of gentry, students, military, and traders was called by Liu, Comprador of the `Banque de l'Indo-Chine` and five of his fellows in the Commercial Association, who had previously circulated a scheme for the building of the line to Ichang and Siang-Yang by a purely mercantile Company, and, according to the *Hupei News*, was attended by several hundred persons. It was addressed by Liu's supporters, who argued that a loan on any terms entailed sacrifice of all trading and territorial rights; that the construction could be let in short sections and paid for half in share scrip; that the Board, which knew well how profitable the line would prove, should not be allowed to do Hupei out of such a valuable enterprise, and that his Excellency Chang would be only too well pleased to find a loan unnecessary. It is curious to find the examples of other provinces where railways have been left to private management cited as though this arrangement had proved eminently successful, and had worked without friction or difficulty.\n\nThe subscription list published recalls the lists put out at the time of the Shanghae-Hangchow-Ningpo Railway agitation, and gives no indication of the very depressed state of all branches of trade in this port. Liu heads it with 500,000 shares—presumably at 5 dollars—though it is common knowledge that his readily convertible funds are to seek, and that his title to the land round Hankow claimed by him is in many cases dubious. A bank manager and a money-lender sign for 250,000 dollars each, and one of the gentry for 200,000 dollars. An ex-steamer comprador, now, by Shông Kung-Pao's favour, in a prominent post in the new Ironworks and Mining Company, comes next with 10,000 shares. Various impecunious gentry undertake to get vast blocks of shares taken up; but there are very few actual promises of even 5,000 dollars, apart from these. His Excellency Chang, when Viceroy here, used to admit that he shrank from rousing popular and student clamour by a loan; and it remains to be seen whether he will stand firm in his present attitude towards an agitation which arose only when his Excellency proposed to take the three years' apathy of the Hankow public towards this line as a justification for taking it out of their hands.\n\nI have, &c. (Signed) E. H. FRASER.\n\n## Inclosure 3 in No. 1.\n\n**Extracts from the \"Eastern Times\" of October 15, 1908.**\n\n**Cypher Telegrams sent by Chang Chih-tung to the Wuchung Viceroy, the first being also for the Provincial Council, the Railway Bureau, and Gentry.**\n\n### (1.)\n\n**(Translation.)**\n\nSeptember 20, 1908.\n\nMY telegram of the 19th September sent last evening must have reached you. The present telegram supplements it on a point I omitted to touch upon. I obtained Imperial sanction on several occasions to Hupei's having charge of the Hupei section of the Hankow-Szechuan line; and I telegraphed last year to the Wai-wu Pu about borrowing for its construction. The Board of Communication's present urging is only insistence on a fixed limit for provincial arrangements being made with all haste on pain of delay leading to the Board's taking over the business. It is absurd to call this forcible reversal of precedent just as arrangements are making, and grabbing for Board construction. Your Excellency is a newcomer and may not be familiar with the history of the case and so misapprehend my position, and, in addition, that I am simply afraid the sums needed are beyond raising.\n\n### (2.)\n\n**(Translation.)**\n\nSeptember 22, 1908.\n\nI am greatly impressed with your correct appreciation of the fact that Hupei ought to make its own arrangements for developing railways which are to its proper profit.\n\nThere is no need to be anxious whether the gentry and people will or will not approve of raising a loan. The lines are so long and the cost so vast that, in view of Hupei's extraordinary poverty, the work cannot start without a loan. The intelligent gentry and people should understand the folly of throwing away a great profit for their province. For a loan raised by the authorities, with the proviso that traders and people may buy bonds up to 50 per cent., on the general lines of the Tien-tsin-P'uk'ou arrangement is a most advantageous business, and precludes any justification for refusal. The Hunan gentry, after all their fuss and clamour against foreign loans, have recently changed their tune, and come to see that Hunan shares cannot attain success—proposing to move for an official loan to start work in combination with Hunan share capital. If even the Hunanese have awakened to comprehension, there need be no doubt about Hupei!\n\nI hope you will let me have an early outline of future deliberations.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-360 - Public Offices - 1909.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 421368, "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": "CO129-360 - Public Offices - 1909", "page_number": 157, "title": "CO129-360 - Public Offices - 1909", "content_text": "# \n## \n\n155 \n\n2 \n\nInternal evidence this would seem to be the case; but I understand from Mr. Harmon, of the Baptist Mission, that it is supposed by the Chinese to have been produced in Chefoo. I was unable to obtain a second copy of the leaflet, as every endeavour was being made to keep it not only from foreigners, but even from Chinese belonging to other provinces.\n\nThe leaflet is only one symptom among many of a very strong anti-German, rather than a general anti-foreign, agitation that is being fomented in Shantung, and that threatens, sooner or later, to develop into an organized boycott directed against the Germans throughout the province. The reasons for this agitation are twofold:\n\n1. The very heavy, not to say oppressive, taxes that are being levied by the German authorities everywhere in the leased territory, and which bear especially hardly upon the Chinese; and\n2. The Mining Concessions held by the Germans in Shantung and the German control of the Kiao-chau-Chinan Railway, not to mention the occupation of Tsingtau, ever a thorn in the flesh to the Chinese.\n\nIn my despatch No. 16 of the 8th October, in which I forwarded copy of the new Tsingtau Godown and Wharf Ordinance, I drew attention to several of these taxes, and expressed a doubt whether the Chinese would in the long run submit patiently to them. The event seems likely to justify my doubts; and these taxes being, as stated above, one of the chief causes of the present feeling against the Germans, it may be of interest to recapitulate some of them, and to discuss the developments that have taken place since I last wrote on the subject.\n\nFirst comes the Godown and Wharf Ordinance. As already reported by me, the Chinese merchants at Tsingtau did not rest until the Hamburg-Amerika Steam-ship Company had not only promised to pay all wharfage dues on behalf of their clients and acknowledged liability for any damage to or loss of goods discharged from or shipped by their steamers, but had further undertaken to render active assistance to the Chinese in their agitation against the Ordinance: only on these conditions was the boycott against the Company raised. Subsequently, however, the Chinese alleged that the latter was not carrying out its undertaking to assist them actively against the Government, and the boycott was renewed as stringently as before. Once again the Hamburg-Amerika line could not get a single package of cargo, either in Shanghae or in Tsingtau; and the effects of the boycott were even felt as far south as Hong Kong. The Company was reduced to holding out the inducement of half rates, but even on those terms could obtain no cargo; and, according to my latest information from Tsingtau, the boycott is still in full swing. This will give some idea of the very strong feeling against the Ordinance. The English Companies serving Tsingtau are reaping a rich harvest, and the Chinese are themselves chartering steamers in addition. The Hamburg-Amerika line has complained to the German authorities; but the latter declare that, after full investigation, they cannot trace any signs of a boycott, and they decline to take any action on behalf of the Company, an attitude probably due to a realization of their own helplessness in the matter.\n\nAs regards other taxes, the tax on Chinese huts mentioned in my previous despatch is in operation, and the Chinese complain that the taxes on each individual house or hut amount to no less than 75 per cent. of the rent. The tax on water has also been introduced at the rate of 10 cash for two kerosene tins full (this singular unit was adopted in order to secure absolute uniformity with the minimum of trouble). Those houses that have water laid on pay the tax monthly according to the meter, while in the streets an official stands at each main to take the money and to dole out the water to the coolies and others who come to fetch it. Fees have also been instituted for the use of what are called articles of public utility, among which may be mentioned the public scales set up at all the market-towns in the German territory. On market-days all articles sold by weight are to be weighed in the public scales, for the use of which a small fee is charged. Dues are also levied on sales of cattle and various other goods, while the fees on pedlars' licences were recently raised. In this case, however, there was a general strike of pedlars, and the opposition was so determined that the German authorities were compelled to give way and agree to levy the licence fees at the old rates. In some other cases also the Chinese have protested by closing the shops and by not attending the market; but these manifestations were only sporadic, and soon collapsed for lack of united action. The discontent evoked by these various taxes, which are so oppressive in their incidence, will readily be realized.\n\nAs to the second cause of the agitation, the occupation of Tsingtau and the control of the Kiao-chau-Chinan Railway may be left aside, and attention confined to the German Mining Concessions in Shantung. For the sake of completeness it may be as well to enumerate once again the Concessions actually held at the present moment:\n\n| Concession | Description |\n| --- | --- |\n| 1 | Exclusive mining rights for 15 kilom. on either side of the Kiao-chau-Chinan Railway, including the branch line to Poshan. These were transferred by the German Government to the \"Schantung Bergbau Gesellschaft,\" a Syndicate with a capital of 12,000,000 marks, and comprise the richest coal-fields in the province, near Weihsien and Poshan, as well as Tieh-shan, near Chinling-chen, where a very good quality of magnetic iron ore has been discovered, containing on an average 58 per cent. of iron. |\n| 2 | Mining Concessions in the so-called five zones, held by the \"Deutsche Gesellschaft für Bergbau und Industrie im Ausland,\" which include gold, coal, mica, and diamond mines. The Company, which is bound under the terms of the Agreement to commence work before the end of 1909, failing which the Concessions will be forfeited, has already started prospecting. I understand that it may possibly confine itself to working the gold mines in the Maoshan, near Chefoo, in the Ning-hai Department, and give up the other Concessions, the value of which is doubtful. |\n| 3 | Finally, there is the Chung-hsing Coal-mining Company at T-hsien, which is officially called a \"Deutsche-Chinesische Gesellschaft,\" but in which, so I gather, out of a capital of 2,000,000 dollars, the Germans are only interested to the extent of about 43,000 dollars. Besides, it has already been decreed that the Germans are to be bought out as soon as possible, and that the word \"German\" is to be eliminated from the name of the Company. On the other hand, rolling-stock for a short line of railway, 47 kilom. in length, for the carriage of the coal between the mines and Han-chuang, on the Grand Canal, has been purchased in Germany by means of a loan of 800,000 marks, bearing interest at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, and this doubtless gives the Germans a certain lien on the mines until the loan has been paid off. |\n\nThere is, of course, also the Agreement for the German section of the Tien-tsin-P'uk'ou Railway, but owing to the very different nature of the arrangements under which this line is being built, it is not the object of the same hostility on the part of those responsible for the agitation. It may, however, not be out of place to mention at this juncture that the Chinese have been careful to make no arrangements, for the present at all events, for any connection between the Kiao-chau-Chinan and the Tien-tsin-P'uk'ou Railways. A separate station is to be built at Chinan for the latter, the idea being, as I imagine, to preclude any possibility of the Germans asserting that the line is the continuation to the border of Shantung of the railway from Kiao-chau, thereby enabling them to claim mining rights in the 15-kilom. strip on either side of the line, as provided for in the Kiao-chau Agreement. And here I may add that I cannot find that, as reported by my predecessor in his Intelligence Report dated the 7th August, 1908, mining rights in the 10-mile strip on each side of the portion of the Tien-tsin-P'uk'ou Railway from Chinan southward to the border of Shantung have been granted to Germany.\n\nTo revert to the Mining Concessions, their retrocession is demanded from Germany, and, as stated above, a general boycott of German goods and industries is threatened in the event of non-compliance. The agitation appears to have made itself definitely felt some time last May, about the time when the present Governor of Shantung took over the seals of office. He was evidently considered by the local Young China Reform party as an official thoroughly hostile to all foreigners, and his arrival was hailed by them as the dawn of a new era. The so-called Society for the Protection of the Mines, which comprised the leading spirits in the movement, entered upon a career of active anti-German agitation by the distribution of leaflets, the exhortations of itinerant speakers, and other means, while the Chinese teachers in the high schools published the Kiao-chau Agreement in English and Chinese, with a view to raising feeling against the Germans.\n\nOne of the immediate results of the agitation was the usual crop of extravagant rumours, which would deserve no notice were it not that they as ever found ready credence among the people. The Germans were supposed to have occupied Chefoo with their soldiers, while the movements of the Chinese troops in connection with the local manoeuvres in Shantung were said to be an advance on Chefoo in force in order to drive the Germans out. It was reported later on that the Germans were bringing out reinforcements to Tsingtau with a view to the capture of Chinan. On the whole, these rumours...\n\n3 \n\n[2049 ee--5] \n\nB 2", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-360 - Public Offices - 1909.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 421390, "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": "CO129-360 - Public Offices - 1909", "page_number": 179, "title": "CO129-360 - Public Offices - 1909", "content_text": "## 177\n\nD H...

The Company replies that there is no option but to raise a loan for both Hupei and Hunan; that the intention is not to pledge the line and to borrow only as money is actually needed, thus saving interest, and gradually to hypothecate the rice and salt rates. His Excellency Chang's telegram declares that the local finances and the railway rights will in no way be prejudiced, and no other embarrassment will result. The only course is to raise as many shares as possible, as each share got reduces the amount to be borrowed.

It seems to me, however, to be advisable not to enter into a discussion upon the subject unless and until we are forced to do so, and I should say that, if Mr. Odagiri raises the question of Japanese rights under the 1905 Agreement, your best course would be to refer him to his Legation, which can obtain an interpretation of them from us.\n\n(Translation.)\n\nYours sincerely,\n(Signed) J.

I may add that evidence of its proved excellence is made clear by the fact that most of the Dominions have followed the UK legislation closely.\n\nThe question of Chinese Banks is one of policy, to be determined by local and not by imperial authority.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-367 - Acting Governor May - 1910 [6-7].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 426260, "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": "CO129-368 - Acting Governor May - 1910 [8-9]", "page_number": 42, "title": "CO129-368 - Acting Governor May - 1910 [8-9]", "content_text": "his report the Honourable Mr. Davis is not familiar)\n\n• literary\n\n20.255.\n\nproduced in Hong Kong\n\nnow\n\nin Hongkong.\n\nThe position is that the copyright in an artistic work first produced in the UK under the Copyright Act (set out in the 2nd schedule to the UK Copyright Act 18862) or in the Hong Kong register under the present Act\n\nSEC 4 \"first published\" is rather a queer phrase and it could have been better to use the expression of Sec 8 of the Act of 1956 \"first produced\" [of our comment to this effect it will draw the Attorney-General's attention to the 1956 Act.]\n\nThen\n\nthe objection so far as I am concerned is to applying these Acts to Hong Kong.\n\nSanction, writing\n\nCros\n\naf \"A\"\n\nJ.J.R\n\n12/10\n\nShouldn't we get observations of Rs of trade first? 9.1.2/10\n\nsent to B.W.T.\n\nAcc\n\n12\n\nAt once\n\n4BZ\n\nT7/10\n\nEnclosure\n\n1.\n\nMy Lord,\n\nEnclosure re 2.\n\n39\n\n0 27443\n\nSEP 10\n\nGovernment House,\n\nHongkong, 4th August, 1910.\n\nI have the honour to submit for the signification of His Majesty's pleasure the following Ordinance entitled:-\n\nAn Ordinance to amend the Law of Copyright.\n\n2.\n\n(No. 14 of 1910.)\n\nThe customary report by the Attorney-General is annexed.\n\nI have the honour to be,\n\nMy Lord,\n\nYour Lordship's most obedient,\n\nhumble servant,\n\nOfficer Administering the Government.\n\nTHE RIGHT HONOURABLE\n\nTHE EARL OF CREWE,\n\n&C.\n\nPage 80...\n\n&C.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-368 - Acting Governor May - 1910 [8-9].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 426485, "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": "CO129-368 - Acting Governor May - 1910 [8-9]", "page_number": 267, "title": "CO129-368 - Acting Governor May - 1910 [8-9]", "content_text": ".1900 \n\n263 \n\nIstened etalvano☺ .* .8 .E \n\n.0101 \n\n#BURUA LIJOI \n\n•yonelleoxi woy \n\nevari I muiqo bezsgang so yvel eds of soneneter gnivaH \n\n-sotnummos a to ygoo yonelieɔxa woÏ od #imanand oj \"wonori erfü \n\n– 1JNOKUTTØVoë gnolynoH arid mort bevieoen evad I moi\n\n, betroger one «nuiço maieroï to aetusies galwollot af** \n\n.xat odd to źnewysq con add 101 \n\nbestes crew muigo anisi to siled OS,Jauguá br3 20 *I* yjub to Jnomçaq ħedta iuriamað da moljaða moðsuo .M.

In reply thereto I would point out that I have in my possession a receipt given to a purchaser by the firm in question to the effect that the guarantee money has been paid along with the purchase price.

The crests of the hills on the Mainland and Island which command the water area of the inner harbour constitute the minimum line which must be defended, and therefore any point on the Mainland South of the hill tops and between Wong Uk and the Lyemun Pass, and any point on the Island North of the hill tops and between the Eastern end of Sulphur Channel and the West end of Lyemun Pass may be regarded as being a protected point to the fullest extent that the existing Garrison is capable of protecting any point in the Colony.\n\nOn the other hand if the commercial station is prepared to close down in war time without demur when ordered to do so, and such closing down implies that the station will be useless to an enemy, and will expect no defence of any kind I see no reason why the station should not be established at any point whatsoever on the South shore of the Island.

E. the Civil Governor of Kwangtung and the Green Island Cement Co.'s Representatives.\n\nIn the company of Messrs. Shewan Tomes & Co.'s Hongkong Compradore Mr. Ng Hon Tez, and the Green Island Cement Co.'s Shui King, Tai Tong and Ying Tak Limestone Contractors, I called on H.E. the Civil Governor of Kwangtung this morning in accordance with the wishes of H.B.M.Consul-General, Mr. J.V.Jeldesm, C.M.G.\n\nI informed H.E. that my call was the outcome of an interview between himself and H.B.M.Consul-General, which took place on the last instant at which H.E. had stated that his Government was prepared to issue to the Green Island Cement Co.'s Contractors permits for the quarrying and export of Limestone from the West and North Rivers in Kwangtung Province on payment of a licensing fee to be commensurate with that paid by the Canton Cement Co. I informed H.E. that I had brought with me the contractors who had formerly supplied the Green Island Cement Co. with limestone, and I requested that he would be good enough to explain fully what procedure was necessary to secure the continuation of this supply.\n\nHis Excellency replied that his Government is willing to grant permits to our contractors. They must, however, first file a formal petition with him giving full details of the situation of the quarries and area etc., thereof, and they must also file a similar petition with the magistrates of the Districts in which the quarries are situated. As soon as the magistrates of these Districts have forwarded to him these petitions, duly approved by them, the Civil Governor will issue the permits on payment of the licensing fee.\n\nI asked H.E. if he would be good enough to instruct the Magistrates of the Districts in which we are interested to lose no time in forwarding these petitions to him, and I also asked him if he could inform me what would be the approximate amount of the licensing fee. To my first question H.E. replied that he had already", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-409 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [1-3].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 447445, "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": "CO129-409 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [1-3]", "page_number": 543, "title": "CO129-409 - Governor Sir May - 1914 [1-3]", "content_text": "TONI SA IY\n\n(HA).A.1.0\n\n*0.8.8 to (1)23.600.1.2\n\n.0001 10 IVY h\n\n„Ianis no 810-\n\ni belli\n\nJINOU C\n\nShoppé taleg-\n\n.E.

Under section 1(1)(c) of the Act, a person born on a British ship is a natural-born British subject, and it was perhaps to exclude such persons that the requirement of continuous residence was introduced.\n\nA person who is on board British ships (with spells ashore with British ships) all the time is considered resident in Hong Kong for naturalization purposes.\n\nI have spoken to the Registrar of the R.O. and gather from him that before the War, the UK practice was to make naturalization possible for sailors serving on British ships during the war.\n\nThey have continued this practice during the war. He agreed with me that it is not fair if we were to reject this case without referring it to the R.O. officially, in order that, after obtaining a statement from the authorities on UK practice, we may be able to determine how the present case and similar ones from the Colonies in future should be dealt with.\n\nI add that the Secretariat is supported by only 3 statements, viz., those of the 6 May made in Circular Instruction (A) of 28 April 1915.\n\nContrast Original Case 121221.\n\nB. This rather looks as if Falk's connection with Hong Kong is so slender that he cannot find more than 2 persons to verify the statements made in his memorial.\n\n? Send the 4 marginal notes to this desk in cover for forwarding to R.O. with a request for a statement in writing as to whether, according to U.K. practice, Jack would be held to be qualified, so far as residence in H.M. Dominions is concerned, for naturalization.\n\nI think we should add a paragraph at \"B\" - for the Cape of Natal (now part of South Africa) - to the effect that after annexation, it was held that residence in the Colony counted towards naturalization.\n\nWA - It is pointed out that Falk cannot be held to have resided in Hong Kong for one year immediately preceding the application. It might be possible under section 2(5) to count the 4 years residence in South Africa, provided that particulars as to his arrival, reaching, and leaving, South Africa and as to the periods during which he was there are furnished, and that he had a full period of 1 year residence within H.M. Dominions.\n\nHis time in South Africa, however, could not count as residence under the Crown as it was admittedly less than the 5 years required by section 2(5) of the Act.\n\nPage 226", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-447 - Governor Sir May - 1918 [1-3].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 476062, "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": "CO129-447 - Governor Sir May - 1918 [1-3]", "page_number": 426, "title": "CO129-447 - Governor Sir May - 1918 [1-3]", "content_text": "## 419\n\nVital Guiwetujem Notelexe to exc~ne moliquore Juondiw mal on diet \n\nqead of te 70 ni ejsede dɛametuo ede to anoideguiroo & al beosIq \n\n**FPIRIT (LOW TO Aṛuk şu spa orada”** \n\nfrom ni æde ade retuo edit so so and gaimyo a0 \n\nmerit ZAİTEÞOOT collerá bem beibato ed at bewo) staw mereo sát to two gnistil no „beaosto onia snew walad seedt to taom bem unele mar at exord add to ynom „yi labores team arab naw doide,steada edi \n\nbestil nede ddałow to nient reed don hlượn yadë drát zakwada \n\nend to mujer e gallem ai requodarotë Tel© aựt has does de \n\n-Teq ed+ bna bedostoru ore bos beibaða med oved dekrim ndoade \n\nent egedeerd yd ngemeh adi men? diegu að lag \n\ndove si benequno ere sésade and solder Yo Labrodom and Yo otud E \n\nmeve to den hem alodied må Imiradem eft „ssefonu madi rabnar of \n\nnodizzando i Lundle thicke ordi? euroodsa ent .suomiokat vo stutowsta «lis do jdjiew on vred 10kw steede cóż ban \"drodis\" si med? \n\nbegombou Letovou noqu obom staat haií oveď I \n\nedo to yniosqu erit of laupe nagu a da iedreqque made são ocu ed ora gairolla? add bow .ai ð „s? 5.0.1 „loor add to amling \n\nodt de beligge beel bedøstnaongo a Tekau slord Jesdā .(a) \n\n.dt .po reg vedi 28 of ‡melavtupe nage and 10 astres One laviups beef boðaðirðulb ɣinove m robom odord Jood .(d) \n\n.37 „pa mag .edi buti od \n\nI morì bacçorb .adi RI to Jigiow a robnus salevd food? .(o) \n\nGet me odd da bellaga ha deana odě ovoce too? \n\nmenorq baku lažnozired a gatuerend \n\nedi 00 to \n\nadd de bluem Yoot nicớ no stumaang İsaran salt „Joo? .pe Taq \n\nbluar efeeds east bedt om „tœ↑ «pe mq .adí OS #uedo od mominim -doelgen Ile vi sidT .hool skríð bæcðadékw of dyreen amnên ed Jon to or add no erow com a ti boliqqa od blvem dolew bool odd gal• bne pateade and gaiyel somadeni jevit odd ni mre vo gaitkaqor Joods ▲ chhol e sbue droqque pidineoq dom bivoo Istredem virð \n\n## 4180\n\ncan easily be broken by standing on it before full the weight is applied and many pieces can be broken by hand. \n\nUnder these circumstances I have condemned the material as being useless and I think you will agree with me as to this being the only course open. \n\nWe are now faced with the proposition of finding a substitute and I think that the best thing to do will be to construct a reinforced concrete slab roof since it will take a considerable time to get a supply of genuine \"Lammit\" and if you agree I will have drawings prepared and tenders called for.

Had the Crown Agents sent out the material specified or even some material of equal quality for I understand there are other makers, I am certain that matters would have been different. \n\nWhile on the subject of this Indent I would point out two other instances in which the Crown Agents have passed the material for this extension though not in conformity to the Drawings. \n\n(a) The down pipes were shown on the drawing which was sent home as being in three six foot lengths all of which were dimensioned. On the drawing prepared by the Crown Agents which was practically traced off the one we sent the middle length of down pipe has been marked, and check marked also, as a five foot length though it scales six feet. This has caused the downpipes to be one foot short, and we will require to have extension pieces made. \n\n(b) Bed plates were shown on all the cross girders where they rested on the walls and these were omitted.

In the meantime between the receiving order and adjudication we may, knowing him as we do, expect trouble with regard to his two pensions, over which he will probably contend that the Secretary of State possesses no power of control whatever and which he will probably maintain to be his \"property\" for the purposes of the Bankruptcy Act. (cf. ex parte Huggins discussed in the memorandum mentioned below). \n\nHe may \n\nalso possibly rely on the case of Lucas v.Harris (L.R. 18 Q.B.D. 127) though that was not a bankruptcy case but one of an appointment of a Receiver in equitable execution. It was there held that an Order appointing \n\na Receiver of Pensions made non-assignable by statute \n\nwas bad. \n\nI dealt comprehensively with the effect \n\nof bankruptcy proceedings on Colonial pensions in a memorandum attached to Northern Nigeria 31656/11 which \n\nGold Coast appears not to have been noted (as there directed) by the Eastern Department. \n\nIt will be seen from Part A of this memorandum that before adjudication the official Receiver has no legal power to obtain possession of a Colonial pension but has only authority to receive it, and that the receiving order does not bind the Crown or the Colonial Governments concerned. Consequently \n\npending adjudication the Secretary of State's control over the pensions (the existence of which control we must maintain however much Sir F.Piggott may rage against us) continues, but the proper course is to \n\narrange", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-464 - Public Offices - 1920.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 485231, "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": "CO129-464 - Public Offices - 1920", "page_number": 173, "title": "CO129-464 - Public Offices - 1920", "content_text": "HONG KONG\n\n42012\n\n42012\n\nR: 25 AUG 20\n\n168\n\n1920\n\nMang\n\nLast previous Paper.\n\nL\n\n19740\n\nPension of thr.

However, the OCR process has introduced numerous errors, including spelling mistakes, incorrect word separation, and nonsensical phrases.\n2. **Error Identification**: The text contains a multitude of errors, such as \"un folus be tage came frommettet\" instead of a coherent phrase, \"absons\" instead of \"absconders\" or a similar word, and \"undersmith\" which could be \"undesirable\". Many words and phrases are not recognizable or are incomplete.\n3. **Contextual Understanding**: The text appears to be related to historical documents concerning Hong Kong, specifically dealing with the repatriation of British subjects from Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City) and other related diplomatic and administrative matters.\n4. **Correction Approach**: To correct the text, we need to identify and fix spelling errors, rejoin broken sentences, restore paragraph breaks where necessary, and ensure that the text is formatted correctly in Markdown. We should also be cautious not to alter the original meaning or tone of the document.\n\n## Fixed solution:\nDue to the extensive nature of the errors and the complexity of reconstructing the original text, a fully corrected version would require a detailed understanding of the historical context and the specific content of the documents. However, a corrected version of the initial part of the text is provided below in HTML format as per the instructions:\n\nSeeing \n\nto Sungin \n\nRusty \n\nthat \n\nunusual baggage came from Saigon.\n\nand act for how's absconding.\n\nlitter \n\n$ 24 \n\nthe March to the Abort \n\nwhich is understood was \n\nfor Ph. copy of which \n\nsent to the Colonial Office.\n\nand inform No. that we are in communication \n\nwith the External Office.\n\non the subject.\n\nCJP. 31/5/in.\n\n2.

Additionally, the corrected text can be used for historical research or archival purposes, providing a more readable and understandable version of the original documents.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-464 - Public Offices - 1920.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 485843, "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": "CO129-465 - Public Offices & Others - 1920", "page_number": 197, "title": "CO129-465 - Public Offices & Others - 1920", "content_text": "15.

As there may be some stir about this, a summary of the position may be useful.\n\n1. In August, 1918, the Marconi Company signed an Agreement with the Chinese Government for the supply of 200 sets of wireless telephones. The Company lent the Government £600,000, of which £300,000 was the actual purchase price, the residue being for the erection of the sets. (In point of fact, we have always known that it was the price paid to the Government for giving the Company the contract; in fact, the price for establishing British wireless predominance in China).\n\nThe Government undertook that until the loan was repaid, they would exclusively adopt the Marconi system of wireless telephony, and they further bound themselves \"in the event of the Government deciding to establish a repair shop or factory for the maintenance of wireless installations in China, or for the manufacture of wireless apparatus, the Government will first open discussions with the Company with a view to arranging joint operation of such factory by the Government and the Company\".\n\n2. Arising out of this article, the Chinese Government on May 24th, 1919, signed a subsequent agreement with the Marconi Company for the formation of the \"Chinese National Wireless Telegraph Company\", a joint concern between the Chinese Government and the Marconi Company. The object of the Company was \"the manufacture of wireless telegraph and telephone apparatus, materials and supplies, and to repair and maintain wireless installations now existing and hereafter established, but nothing in this agreement confers...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-470 - Public Offices - 1921.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 489609, "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": "CO129-471 - Public Offices - 1921", "page_number": 100, "title": "CO129-471 - Public Offices - 1921", "content_text": "## MINUTES\nMay 30th (27266)\n\nIt was suggested that it might be desirable to consider steps to prevent the transhipment of opium at HK.\n\nWe were informed (31996) on June 27th that further licences to export opium to Formosa from the UK were given until Japan has furnished satisfactory explanations.\n\n## MINUTES NOT TO BE WRITTEN ON THIS SIDE.\n[Bundle A] 99\n\nIt has been provided that the H.K.

Chang Tso-lin is assisting Dr. Sun with funds. (I gathered that Er. Yeh is here for the purpose of arranging this). Chan Kwing-ming cannot move from Waichow because of the presence of Hsu at Swatow,\n\n5.\n\nMr. Liang emphasised the possibilities of a dangerous situation at Shanghai. Lu Yung-heiang, Tuchun of Cheklang, and Ho Feng-lin, Military Commander in Shanghai, with some 10,000 troops, are at loggerheads with Wu Pei-fu who is egging on the fleet at Shanghai to attack them; the fleet consisting of 3 large and 10 old small vessels. The Admiral, To Shih-kwei, is not with the fleet, and the Commanders of the ships have declared their independence. If, however, the fleet should go over to Wu Pei-fu, he would attack Shanghai and there would be serious fighting round\n\nthe city, whose supplies might be cut off. Kr. Liang insisted that the danger was a very real one, and he suggest-ed that the Consul-General should be warned.\n\n6.\n\nMr. Liang, supported by Kr. Yeh, argued strongly that the opportunity should be seized, in spite of all obstacles, to construct the loop-line. I pointed out the difficulties and, after much discussion, they said that they would explore the possibility of building it privately with capital subscribed by Chinese merchants. The Chinese Govern-ment would certainly be prepared to take it over as soon as it was a fait accompli, and in any event, with a large Central Station, it would be a paying concern.\n\n7. Mr. Liang said in conclusion that the policy adopted by this Government towards Dr. Sun had given the greatest satisfaction, both in Hongkong and in Canton.\n\nV.

That it is the firm and solemn conviction of the Chinese merchants of this Colony that as long as the present Bolshevic Government in Canton remains in power, so long will the prevailing conditions in Hongkong and Canton continue, and that there can be only one termination to the present situation, which is the general ruination of the commercial and financial life of Hongkong and of Canton.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-489 - Governor Sir Stubbs & Sir Clementi - 1925 [8-12].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 500834, "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": "CO129-489 - Governor Sir Stubbs & Sir Clementi - 1925 [8-12]", "page_number": 546, "title": "CO129-489 - Governor Sir Stubbs & Sir Clementi - 1925 [8-12]", "content_text": "# DRAFT\n\n## Copy to\nW.O. \nH.O. \nMost Official \n\nSir, \n\nI am directed to transmit \nthe accompanying copy of a telegram from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, requesting \nthat a Removal Order under the Colonial Prisoners Removal Act of 1884, for the removal from Hong Kong to the UK of \nthe prisoner \nGunnar James \nunder sentence of imprisonment with hard labour \nfor three years for the crime \nof attempted rape. \nIt is desired that this prisoner should be removed to the UK.\n\n## References\nTAC 13/81 \nGov 51142/25 1th \n\n63 \n26:18 \n\nFir J.

He also stated that we need not be concerned about the question of payment to the employees during the strike, as any deficit would be made up by some merchant guarantors.\n\nEugene Chen and Mr. Cohen, Sun's bodyguard, were present and both then and at other times proved very friendly and gave valuable assistance.\n\nThat evening the first and only civil letter received from C.G. arrived stating that orders had been given to bring the strike to an end.\n\nOn Tuesday afternoon, August 19th, the Shameen employees returned to work and the following morning the wharf labourers turned up to work. Sun sent a picked detachment of his own bodyguard troops down to the bund to see that no hitch occurred. These troops were a very smart and well-equipped lot.\n\nWithin five minutes of the first employees' return, silk began to pour into Shameen; by that night $2,500,000 worth had come in and by the end of the next two days it is estimated that $8,000,000 worth had been brought in.\n\nThere is still no possibility of trouble arising again. Most firms and employers paid half wages for the period of the strike. A few have refused to pay their boys anything.\n\nAccording to the Agreement, these cases should be dealt with by the other side but it is probable that the agitators are getting most of the funds and misrepresenting the facts to their dues.\n\nIn any case, efforts are being made to make more trouble and the usual lies are appearing in the vernacular press.\n\n\"Cicala\" sailed for Hongkong on the 21st and took back the Marine detachments, with the exception of 2 Corporals and 2 Marines who were detained for a few days to help in training the new Police.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-490 - Public Offices - 1925.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 501929, "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": "CO129-491 - Public Offices - 1925", "page_number": 175, "title": "CO129-491 - Public Offices - 1925", "content_text": "1925\n\nFROM\n\nto\n\nFOR CIRCULATION;\n\nMr.\n\nBeckyti\n\nMr.\n\nMr.\n\nAsst.

They let Mr. Williams, Mr. Kwok and myself in without further talk of searching, but as Mr. Gerrard carried a revolver, which he rightly objected to giving up, we agreed that he should stay outside. Inside we met Mr. Tu Cheuk Ying, acting chief strike picket Ca Ch'at. Tui Cheung) with a miscellaneous assemblage of armed people, some in khaki, some in the grey blue uniform of the Whampoa cadets and others in mufti.\n\nCom \n\nMr. Ju unfortunately talks the King Chau Dialect (Hainan) but he understands Cantonese and speaks it a little.\n\nA person in khaki did most of the talking, - I forget his name. We were all very polite. They said that the captives were on the spot: that they were protecting them rather than detaining them, because they were afraid that the populace and the \"Kren Tui” (military troops, non-picket) would have done them hurt. They said that it appeared that the encroachment on Chinese territory was deliberate, and a calculated insult.\n\nI explained that it was a pure accident and that certainly our police had not intentionally landed on Chinese territory, and asked that the men should be allowed to accompany us back. I added that this was a most unfortunate moment for any such contretemps through any misunderstanding as their action would tend to embarrass the Canton Government, now engaged in a friendly conference to settle the situation.\n\nThey said they had wired to their Canton Headquarters and must await instructions. Eventually they agreed to hand over men, arms and boat if I would sign a document which they could hold as proof. I asked what the wording would be, and Mr. Fu Cheuk Ying drafted a form to which I took exception because it contained the characters", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-493 - Governor Sir Clementi - 1926 [6-8].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 503394, "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": "CO129-493 - Governor Sir Clementi - 1926 [6-8]", "page_number": 469, "title": "CO129-493 - Governor Sir Clementi - 1926 [6-8]", "content_text": "£3000.\n\n(*) \n\nBOM \n\nto the bit no znied elistw uk Ladazalt wo\" 10% námst to troda platumudroim al dedic-tal gratifi \n\n• \n\n,000,000,3@ tưroda sbeen eli malaginso \n\nwant:D m2 Ji to Mad seler od sida ed lib \n\nand exem of InemrivoƐ IniyoqmI sia kð þœ sit to JmermTIG VOË \n\nsild Jadi molalit mI . \n\n1 \n\n,000,000,3# gnlatamex edi to naol \n\n•{i Jadi açan of brus „darowu yidoluda ¿qui ed mao jebem li \n\nze İldır vəvo biar eď of rallob a rot das dom seob Lariatsli -00 [lbw gnet-narki më Lammeð Jadd mykg at loom protos? rogoną a Jadi ben ‚ändɛ-kal yaidi tante a midi sitke odzraço anh đào do đạn tìm t „beðalærio: need and ryżaquao To \n\nsilt Jud vivons betallanço nam 000,000,40 pino aya add now ,beznetɔni sorris and dedu-kað greind to digande yzat kim 20 701 piscaaden ed of berbisnoo el 000,000,S# Iamo it i hla food best Lafatali srt Jang sekt mi angingmao odt to caecaus \n\nvi Jud,#revo¶ mężarof muni anaol gritɔvidnoo od besoqqo \n\nmit To↑ nład IrƐ JoeƐ of out of bedrdised dun sarf ed erxo \n\nors aniźdgit ni Jadi szabłanos en snussed sonatalana Lato 30 8'gnozanoë geldt 11 ouls al od grustynowi ni adalvorla(of nch delde Frenaiddes yna Jarit moltolinos desmod ski zl JI e. esusood gnidaaf ed don blow notasɔ diis of amoo ya vagino effi Itos and mi badoor piqesh disi ed IIita bluor eu doula od el asosig and add 101 saang gribida emoes o BaİSİæðna İnterm:stoƐ googooR sat 11 „toon edt vontas ni rodeink! dakikal sdt damonqua IIIw Lariwzaki wild, Lanoqorç broqqua uill swoen od prizes \n\n1926 \n\nYou.

On 14th August a man and a woman were carrying some baskets of fruit along the frontier road, within British Territory, opposite the Lo Fong Customs Station, and were fired at by a labour picket of three men. The man and the woman dropped their baskets and ran away. The Labour picket then crossed the frontier and seized the baskets. The woman is a resident of British Territory, but the man has not yet been found.\n\n11. On 13th August two junks registered in Hongkong, bearing a mixed cargo valued at $1,600 and consigned to a shop in British Sha Tau Kok arrived at Sha Tau Kok for the purpose of unloading. They were ordered by the officer-in-charge of the police station at British Sha Tau Kok to come up to the beach at a point about 500 or 600 yards on the British side of the frontier. On the following day, August 14th, a party of armed men in uniform assisted by labour pickets invaded British Territory and took possession of the junks. They ordered the coolies to take the goods, which had already been unloaded, into Chinese Territory for examination. This was done. On August 15th the soldiers ordered the crews of the junks to move them away into Chinese Territory. An attempt was made by the police officer-in-charge of British Sha Tau Kok Station, in the police rowing boat to prevent this move, but the boat was driven off by rifle fire. By arrangement with the Naval Authorities H.M.S. Foxglove was ordered to assist in the recovery of the junks which were to be regarded as having been pirated. On August 17th this vessel arrived off British Sha Tau Kok, and under her cover a party proceeded to recover the junks. This was done without opposition and most of the cargo was found to be on board.\n\n12. On 15th August at about 2.45 p.m. two rifle shots were fired at a range of about 500 yards from a tower in Lo Fong, Chinese Territory at Ta Ku Ling Police Station. One bullet struck the wall of the barrack room of the Indian police. A number of persons standing by the tower applauded.\n\n13. On 18th August a body of armed men, having the appearance of soldiers, raided the village of A Ma Wat and stole property to the value of $100.\n\n14. On 20th August a gang of coolies under the charge of a foreman of the Public Works Department were at work repairing a bridge on the British frontier road opposite Lo Fong Customs Station (Chinese Territory). Shots were fired at them and they scattered. Pickets crossed the frontier and took away a bicycle belonging to the foreman.\n\n15. On 21st August several Chinese dressed in khaki and armed with rifles were seen to fire at the Lok Ma Chau Ferry on its passage across the Sham Chun River (British waters) from Chinese to British Territory. A party of Police who approached the ferry with the intention of protecting the passengers were also fired on. One passenger, who jumped overboard and tried to swim to British Territory, disappeared and was not seen again.\n\n16. On 27th August at about 2.30 p.m. a picket of Indian soldiers, which had as a result of a series of incidents in this neighbourhood, been stationed on the frontier opposite Lo Fong, was fired on by a picket of Chinese soldiers. Fire was returned and one Chinese soldier was hit.\n\nLater, at about 10.30 p.m., there was a demonstration against Ta Ku Ling Station, and a number of shots were fired at it from two sides. A relieving party was sent up from Sheung Shui. After the demonstration the attacking party retired without making an assault.\n\nTwo days later on 29th August communication by field telephone between the Indian picket and Sheung Shui was interrupted and 20 yards of wire were subsequently found to have been removed.\n\n17. On 11th September two Chinese drivers and two Chinese stokers employed on the Fanling branch railway were arrested by labour pickets at British Sha Tau Kok. As these men were returning to Shum Chun under escort an attempt was made by a police patrol to effect their release. The road from Chinese Sha Tau Kok to Sham Chun passes through British Territory at Lin Hang Gap, and at this point the police endeavoured to intercept the party. The attempt failed, but the captured men were released the next day.\n\n18. On 23rd September a raid by armed pickets was made on the Yuen Tai Tsan shop, British Sha Tau Kok. It was to this shop that the cargoes of the two junks seized on August 15th were consigned. On this occasion 25 pigs, besides money and goods from the shop were stolen. The officer in charge of the pickets tried to restrain his men, but was intimidated by them into submission. Eventually he took refuge in British Territory.\n\nOn 27th September a further raid by armed pickets was made on this shop, and 12 pigs and more property were stolen. The total value of the pigs and property stolen was estimated at over $7,300.\n\nOn 4th October the Assistant Superintendent of Police, New Territories, reported that British Sha Tau Kok was in the hands of the strikers and that it was impossible for the police to venture there. The trains stopped at the police station, about a mile from the village. This state of affairs continued for a month until, on 7th November when His Excellency the Governor personally visited the scene, on his instructions British Sha Tau Kok was reoccupied by two companies of the 2nd Punjabis. The strikers, about 200 in number, fled without resistance and a detachment of 30 men was quartered near the railway station. Although the station was badly damaged the normal train service was immediately resumed. The Yuen Tai Tsan shop which was raided on 23rd September and 27th September was found to be completely ransacked.\n\n19. On 6th November, about mid-day, police Motor Boat No. XI while patrolling the Sham Chun River, (British Waters), opposite the Sheung Po Temple, was fired upon by men concealed in bushes on the Chinese side of the river. About thirty shots were fired of which eight struck the boat.\n\n20. At about 9 p.m. on 31st October a number of men boarded an oyster-boat belonging to a certain oyster-farmer Chan Siu Ying who lives at Shek Po village in the Ping Shan District, (British Territory). The boat was anchored in Deep Bay. From it they kidnapped four of his coolies, and stole a shot gun and a musket valued at $32.00. The aggressors proved to be pickets who took the kidnapped men to the Strikers' headquarters at Nam Tan, where they were detained until they ransomed themselves for $50.00, but were not permitted to return to British Territory.\n\n21. On the morning of 14th November, fishing-boats sailing from Un Long to Ling Ting Island were chased by a strikers' boat in Deep Bay, (British Waters), off Mong Tsing, and were fired at several times. After the shooting the strikers' boat sailed away towards Nam Tau.\n\n21 (a). At 10.30 a.m. on 16th November three shots were fired from Chinese Territory at No. XI Motor Boat while proceeding down the Sham Chun River. The bullets passed just over the boat.\n\n22. On 23rd November, a Chinese farmer in the Lok Ma Chau district sold 12 bags of padi to the Tsai Cheung Tong Shop, in Un Long, New Market. At mid-day when coolies were conveying the rice to a motor-lorry waiting on the new road at Lok Ma Chau, while proceeding by the main path, three strike-pickets armed with rifles suddenly appeared from some bushes and compelled the coolies to carry the rice into Chinese Territory. This outrage took place nearly a mile on the British side of the Sham Chun River.\n\n23. During the forenoon of 23rd November, while two British Police Officers were patrolling the British bank of the Sham Chun River, four or five shots were fired at them from the Chinese side of the river when they were near the temple at the end of the Lok Ma Chau new road. The shots passed very near them. The police then saw a strike picket armed with rifles standing near some mangrove bushes. They returned the fire when the picket, seven men in all, ran away towards Lung Tsun.\n\n24. On 1st December three Chinese women were robbed on the Ta Ku Ling Road in British Territory, and the sum of $3.00 in small money was taken.\n\n25. On 1st December near the Sham Chun River, at San Uk Lang in British Territory, Sub-Inspector Barnett of the Hong Kong Police was fired at by three men.

General Li also desires him (Mr. Luk) to say that His Excellency can go on his holiday without anxiety for the conditions in Canton, for the province will continue to enjoy peace and good order. General Li was very pleased to hear from Mr. Fung Tsuk-man an account of his interview with His Excellency, and he expresses the hope that better friendly relations between Hongkong and Canton will result from it. He asks His Excellency not to listen to the rumours that have been in circulation during the last week or so. They are not true, and are the work of ex-Government officials who have been disappointed with the recent turn of events. Chang Fat-fui returned to Canton on the 27th September on the invitation of General Li. He called on General Li immediately upon his arrival, and then called on Mr. Fung Tsuk-man. In the evening he dined with General Li and Mr. Fung Tsuk-man, and the three of them had a long discussion till 11 p.m. Chang said to General Li that, as he himself was a comparatively young man and was his immediate subordinate, he would like to serve under General Li, and that it would...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-500-4 Canton situation- governor's despatches 15-9-1927 - 24-11-1927.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 508929, "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": "CO129-502-4 Acquisition of Kai Tak for an aerodrome- provision of funds 11-1-1927 - 12-5-1927", "page_number": 60, "title": "CO129-502-4 Acquisition of Kai Tak for an aerodrome- provision of funds 11-1-1927 - 12-5-1927", "content_text": "# EK KU LUNG \n婚 \nKAK RAN \nTSL \nN \n\nNGA IU TAU \n## REQUIRED FOR CIVIL COMMERCIAL AERODROME \nRESERVED FOR \nPAL MARKE \nCHE \nSAI \nNK.

The C.O. does not in this despatch mention the possibility of such assistance from the Fund. There is to my mind little room for doubt that the construction of the new piers and the consequent re-organisation of the ferry system appear essential if the development of the Colony is not to be stifled, but scarcely tolerable conditions under the existing system. \n\nBefore approving the course proposed by Mr. Southorn, I suggest that we consult Mr. Freeston more fully with a view to suggesting to the Governor that he should submit in the detailed form required by the Colonial Development Advisory Committee an application for assistance from the Fund in respect of these works of harbour development.\n\n(M. Cale)\n\nThe scheme is one technically within the scope of the Act. The objections I see are:- \n\n(i) that it is, to the extent of roughly half, a replacement scheme, and not a scheme of development. This assumes that wharves only are constructed.\n\n(ii) that the proportion of the expenditure to be incurred in the UK will probably be small. That is not a vital consideration; but it will naturally influence the C.D.A.C. to some extent.\n\n## Objections to the Scheme\n\n(iii) inasmuch as the reasonable anticipation is that there will be ample revenue to pay the loan charges, and as the construction period will be short—say two years—the maximum assistance which the C.D.A.C. are likely to give would, I think, be somewhere in the nature of a free grant of the interest on half the loan for a period of two years—with possibly some slight margin to allow for contingencies, etc. This works out to—say—£300. The total grant is not likely to exceed—say—£500 or £1000. \n\n2. That assistance is, however, worth having? I suggest that we should ask the advice of the C.As, and meantime that we should consult Sir Basil Blackett, semi-officially. It would be inadvisable to hold out any hopes of aid until we had ascertained that the application had a reasonable chance of succeeding. In my own view, it is rather on the border-line.\n\nThe 11th June 1930.\n\n## Further Considerations\n\nBut I am suspicious about the existing ferries. Will they not have a claim to compensation? We might inquire by despatch meanwhile whether the Gov. is satisfied that the existing ferries will have no claims for compensation.\n\n## Memorandum for Sir B. Blackett\n\nAfter speaking to Mr. Freeston, I submit Memorandum based on Mr. Gent's minute of the 6.6.30 herein for reference to Sir B.

Queensland Mus., vol. 9, pt. 1, April 28, 1927, p. 107). \n\nThe Hong Kong Naturalist. \n\nORNITHOLOGY. \n\n[145] \n\nNOTES AND COMMENTS. \n\nCHINESE BLACKBIRD (Turdus merula mandarinus). \n\nThis bird, hitherto not recorded in our notes, has been seen during the months of February and March of this year, on no less than three occasions in different localities each time. Firstly a pair of these birds took up residence in the University compound in February since when they have been constantly seen; secondly on March 19th a single bird was watched at close quarters near the village of San Uk Ling, Sham Chun valley; lastly on March 30th at Hang Ha Po Village, Lam Tsuen valley a single bird was seen flying in and out of a hedge row. The colouring of the male bird is upper parts universally black, under parts brownish-black, the female has more brownish-black, upper parts with throat buffish-chestnut. The bill is a conspicuous yellow in the case of the male, it may be tipped brown in the female, legs black. \n\nGREAT CHINESE BARBET (Megalaima virens virens). \n\nThe first Barbet was seen on March 9th in the Lam Tsun valley, by the following week, they had increased in numbers in this district and their monotonous call was heard constantly. In one grove near the village of Fang Ma Po no less than five birds were seen to fly out together. These birds appear to be increasing in numbers, it is hoped that this season observers will be able to make notes on the nesting habits of this species. \n\nCHINESE BLACK DRONGO (Dicrurus macrocercus cathœcus). \n\nFirst seen on March 19th in the Shum Chun valley, two birds were observed hawking insects each time returning to perch on the same tree; a little further on a party of three more were seen. It was noticed that the birds were making a noisy chattering and were seen several times to indulge in a tumbling flight whilst in the air. On March 30th a drongo was seen in the Lam Tsuen valley, this was a favourite haunt of these birds last year. \n\nThe Chinese Hair-crested Drongo (Chibbia hottentotta brevirostris). A pair of these birds was seen on April 13th in the Lam Tsuen valley, this bears out our previous observations that this bird arrives in the Colony about a month later than the Chinese Black Drongo. \n\nTHE DUSKY SHRIKE (Lanius fuscatus). \n\nOn March 30th a Dusky Shrike was seen in company with a Chinese Rufous-backed Shrike (L. s. schach) perched on a hedge row in the Lam Tsuen valley. Last year the nest of Lanius s. schach was found in almost this identical spot. There is no doubt that Lanius fuscatus is a larger bird. As this species are constantly seen in this locality we ask observers to help us to solve the separate species theory, the nesting season being the only time when this can be accomplished. See the H. K. N. Vol. I, No. 4, page 149 and Vol. II pages 141 and 221. \n\nMay 1932. \n\n165 \n\nPage 100\nPage 101 \n\n166", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-538-1 Hong Kong University 31-12-1931 - 6-8-1932.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 532861, "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": "CO129-538-1 Hong Kong University 31-12-1931 - 6-8-1932", "page_number": 101, "title": "CO129-538-1 Hong Kong University 31-12-1931 - 6-8-1932", "content_text": "146\n\nNotes Comments\n\nLARGE WHITE-RUMPED SWIFT (Apus pacificus pacificus).\n\nOn March 6th several of these birds were seen flying round the summit of the mountain Ng Tung Shan (Height 3,100 ft.). Last year on March 2nd they were observed near the top of Kowloon Peak, this was noted as an unusually early date to see these Swifts.\n\nPEREGRINE FALCON (Falco peregrinus calidus).\n\nA pair of these birds were seen on the slopes of Ng Tung Shan on March 6th; on March 19th a single bird was seen over the frontier road near Sha Tau Kok.\n\nEASTERN GREY CRANE (Megalornis grus lilfordi).\n\nOn November 30th two of these birds were seen at Ping Shan feeding on a paddy field near the sea; observers at Chilang Point have informed us that several of these birds frequent this district throughout the winter months. These huge birds are unmistakable, their length varies between 42 and 60 inches. They are difficult to approach on account of their extreme wariness, they are usually found on saltings or cultivated land near the sea.\n\nCROW PHEASANT (Centropus s. sinensis).\n\nOn February 21st the crow pheasant was heard calling for the first time, the bird is said to breed in April, though actually no nests were found until May last year.\n\nJAVA SPARROW (Munia orizivora).\n\nThis bird was first seen on 10th November, it is one of the two Weavers to visit the colony. A small number of these birds took up residence in shrubs in the dockyard for some time, but as these birds were very tame they may have been escapes from captivity, especially as they are favourite cage birds with the Chinese. A gaily coloured little bird with a bright pink bill and legs, head and neck black with a conspicuous white patch on sides of the head below the eye, dove-grey upper parts, underparts dove grey to white under tail-coverts, tail black.\n\nCHINESE STARLING (Sturnia sinensis).\n\nSmall numbers of these birds were seen on April 6th in trees around the village of Kam Tin. This species is a common spring visitor and stays to breed; it is a much smaller bird than either of the Mynahs. The head, neck and upper parts are creamy grey, wings white with black primaries, underparts creamy grey, tail black tipped white, bill blue, legs plumbeous. This species is noisy and has a variety of calls and whistlings after the manner of the Sturnidæ, April 1st arrived Island House Tai Po.\n\nINDIAN KOEL (Eudynamis orientalis honorata).\n\nFirst seen and heard on April 6th in a grove by the village of Sek Kong, Kam Tin district. On April 8th a bird was seen in the Lam Tsuen valley and on the same day in the woods at Fanling. The call of this bird can be confused with that of no other bird except that of the Great Chinese Barbet (Megalaima virens virens); there are several districts in the New Territory where both species are fairly numerous such as the Lam Tsuen valley. During the nesting season the incessant mournful calling of the male birds is heard both day and night until it positively becomes a nuisance. The Koel is known to Europeans as the Rain bird. Common to the habit of Cuckoos this bird lays one or more eggs in the nest of another bird preferably that of the Black-necked Mynah (Gracupica nigricollis); the eggs laid bear a considerable resemblance in colour to these of this bird. On April 26th last year a single egg was found in the nest of a Black-necked Mynah, on June 30th three young Koels were found in another of these Mynahs nests. The Indian Cuckoo (Cuculus m. micropterus) was not seen till April 13th when six birds were seen in the Lam Tsuen Valley.\n\nGREY-HEADED BLACK-FACED BUNTING (Emberiza spodocephala spodocephala).\n\nOn March 26th several birds were seen together near the village of Tung Chung, Lan Tau Island. They were perched about the bushes bordering a stream. These birds are noticeable at once by their bright colours, the head and neck is grey with a conspicuous chestnut patch on the cheeks, upper parts bright chestnut, primaries brown edged with chestnut, under parts buffish-white tail brownish-black.\n\nWe have recorded this species once before also on Lan Tau, this was in December 1930, on this occasion several birds were seen together on the South Coast of the Island.\n\nEASTERN HOUSE SWALLOW (Hirundo rustica gutturalis).\n\nFirst seen on February 20th. An observer tells us that as early as March 12th a nest was being built on an uninhabited house in the Castle Peak Tsuen valley.\n\nCHINESE LITTLE BITTERN (Ixobrychus s. sinensis).\n\nOn 15th March a specimen was picked up at Aberdeen (Hong Kong) in an exhausted condition and died soon afterwards. This bird proved to be a young male. The Chinese Little Bittern is said to be common and breeding in Kwangtung, but we have no records of their doing so in the Colony, although a few birds appear to remain throughout the winter.\n\nTHE JAPANESE ROBIN FLYCATCHER (Siphia Mujimaki).\n\nOn March 19th a single bird was seen in a paddy field near the village of San Uk Ling, Sham Chun, the bird was hawking insects. This bird has the habit of feeding on migration close to the ground, actually alighting to take its food off the ground then regaining its perch on a neighbouring bush.\n\nA most attractively coloured bird the upper parts grey-black with white car-coverts, bar and blotch on wing and bases to side feathers and tail, under parts orange and white, bill black, legs reddish-brown. In summer the upper parts are black. This is the first record we have made of this flycatcher.\n\n147\n\nThe Hong Kong Naturalist.\n\nMay 1932.\n\n167", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-538-1 Hong Kong University 31-12-1931 - 6-8-1932.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 532862, "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": "CO129-538-1 Hong Kong University 31-12-1931 - 6-8-1932", "page_number": 102, "title": "CO129-538-1 Hong Kong University 31-12-1931 - 6-8-1932", "content_text": "168\n\n148\n\nNotes Comments\n\nTHE BLACK-NAPED ORIOLE (Oriolus chinensis indicus).\n\nFirst date reported this year March 29th perched in the top branches of a Cananga tree in the Botanical gardens, this must be an early comer as the bird was not seen until April 30th last year. On April 13th an Oriole was seen and heard in full song in a garden at Tai Po. THE ASHY DRONGO (Dicrurus leucophaeus hopwoodi).\n\nThis rare visitor has been observed in the Botanical gardens since January 6th, at the time of writing April 6th the bird is still with us. On page 65 Vol. III, No. 1, of the Hong Kong Naturalist, it was stated that this was the first time we have recorded the Ashy Drongo, this is incorrect for in February and March 1930 a solitary bird was seen in these gardens, see page 90 Vol. I, No. 2, of the Hong Kong Naturalist.\n\nOn April 6th, the day on which the Black-naped Oriole was first seen, an observer watched these two rare species perched close together on the same tree in the Botanical gardens,\n\nBIRDS OF THE SHAM CHUN VALLEY.\n\nAs a typical example of the number of species of birds that can be seen in an afternoon in the New Territory, the following list is given, it was compiled by a party of five observers on March 19th whilst walking up the Sham Chun valley towards the villages of San Uk Ling and Muk Wo.\n\nThis district was entirely new ground to all in the party:-\n\nChinese Pied Kingfisher (Ceryle rudis insignis).\nEastern Little Blue Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis bengalensis).\nEastern White-breasted Kingfisher (Halcyon smyrnensis fusca).\nChinese Fan-tail Warbler (Cisticola juncidis tintinnabulans).\nBrown Bush-Warbler (Oreopneuste f. fuscata).\nEastern Quail (Coturnix c. japonica).\n\nSouth China Grey Tit (Parus cinereus commixtus),\nChinese Black Drongo (Dicrurus macrocercus cathœcus).\nChinese Tailor Bird (Orthotomus sutorius longicauda).\nBlack-necked Mynah (Gracupica nigricollis).\nChinese Crested Mynah (Aethiopsar c. cristatellus).\nChinese Red-vented Bulbul (Molpastes hæmorrhous chrysorrhoides).\n\nChinese Red-whiskered Bulbul (Otocompsa emeria jocosa).\nChinese Bulbul (Pycnonotus sinensis sinensis).\nRichard's Pipit (Anthus r. richardi).\nEastern Tree Pipit (Anthus trivialis hodgsoni).\nChinese Dayal Bird (Copsychus saularis prosthopellus).\nChinese Rufous-backed Shrike (Lanius s. schach).\n\nEastern House Swallow (Hirundo rustica gutturalis).\nWhite-rumped Swift (Apus p. pacificus).\nChinese Stonechat (Saxicola torquata stejnegeri).\nDaurian Redstart (Phœnicurus a. auroreus).\nCrow Pheasant (Centropus s. sinensis).\n\nSouth China White-Eye (Zosterops simplex simplex).\n\nNotes & Comments\n\n149\n\nChinese Tree Sparrow (Passer montanus saturatus).\nEastern Turtle Dove (Streptopelia o. orientalis).\nBlack-eared Kite (Milvus lineatus).\nEastern Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus calidus).\n\nChinese Magpie (Pica pica sericea).\nLittle Egret (Egretta g. garzetta).\nCattle Egret (Bubulcus ibis coromandus).\nChinese Blackbird (Turdus merula mandarinus).\n\nGrey Wagtail (Budytes cinereus caspicus).\nWhite-faced Wagtail (Motacilla alba leucopsis).\n\nTOTAL 34 SPECIES.\n\nIt will be noticed that several of the common species were not seen, such as the Blue Magpie, Babbling Thrush, Violet Whistling Thrush, Kestrel, Collared Crow and Cuckoo, so that it seems reasonable to suppose that by putting in a whole day upwards of 40 different species might be observed. We ask readers to endeavour to better this total and forward to us their list for comparison.\n\nNESTING NOTES.-March and early April, 1932.\n\nNests have been observed as follows:-\n\nChinese Magpie (Pica p. sericea) March 14th in University compound; March 17th Kai Lung, nest in a pine tree at 30 feet containing 3 youngsters estimated at not less than a fortnight old; March 17th near Lower Kai Lung in a pine tree at 20 feet, nest with one egg; March 19th Victoria Road in a pine tree at 15 feet,—2 eggs; March 22nd Kam Tin in a Melia tree at 30 feet,-4 eggs, these eggs were especially large for a magpie measuring 1.1 by 1.45 inches as compared with an average of 0.9 by 1.3, but as the nest was that of a Magpie and the bird was seen leaving the nest there can be no doubt as to the identity of the eggs.\n\nCollared Crow (Corvus torquatus) March 17th at San Tin situated 40 feet up in the fork of a Banyan Tree. The nest was composed of small branches, grass and mud, and contained 3 young birds about a week old; March 19th Aberdeen district in a Pine Tree at 18 feet, nest composed of small branches and pine needles lined with cotton wool, 5 eggs, four eggs were a uniform colour one egg much lighter average size of the eggs 1.6 by 1.2 inches. These are the first records we have made of the nests of these birds in the colony. The note of the Collared Crow is a harsh deep croak somewhat reminiscent of the raven.\n\nBlack-necked Mynah (Gracupica nigricollis). On April 6th two nests seen in the process of building in the fork of Bombax trees near Kam Tin village. The nests are untidy looking made chiefly of dried grasses which the birds could be seen taking to the nest.\n\nBlack-eared Kite (Milvus lineatus).\nMarch 18th below Lugard road 18 feet up in a Litsea tree, one egg very pale colour; March 18th below Harlech road 25 feet up in a Pine tree, three eggs all very pale colour; March 22nd below Stubbs Road 18 feet up in a pine tree-3 eggs, two of these eggs were heavily marked with chocolate and dark brown spots and\n\nThe Hong Kong Naturalist.\n\nMay 1932.\n\n169", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-538-1 Hong Kong University 31-12-1931 - 6-8-1932.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 533331, "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": "CO129-538-4 Remuneration of Chief Justice of Hong Kong for services as Appeal Judge at Shanghai 18-1-1932 - 2-2-1932", "page_number": 5, "title": "CO129-538-4 Remuneration of Chief Justice of Hong Kong for services as Appeal Judge at Shanghai 18-1-1932 - 2-2-1932", "content_text": "C.

In paragraph 6 of No.1 Hong Kong was asked to contribute £5000 per annum as a subsidy for the scheme under which all first class mail would be carried by air as from 1937. They were told that this sum had been assessed especially low in recognition of the fact that connection by other services (viz. by ocean steamer from Singapore) would be involved to complete the journey to Hong Kong. Since these arrangements were made and that despatch sent, it has been decided that the Imperial Airways Line must be extended to Hong Kong via Bangkok in the course of 1935. This seems to me to upset the basis of the Hong Kong assessment of £5000.\n\n8\n\nAs far as the War Office is concerned, our experience of their attitude towards demands for the exemption of particular classes of revenue from the Defence Contribution assessment, is judged entirely from the point of view of the amount of money involved, and while they might agree to exempt £5000 it would not follow that they would exempt some larger figure.\n\nThe Colony's Defence Contribution in Hong Kong is substantially less than the cost of the garrison and therefore any concession to the Colony as regards the revenue required to meet this expenditure on the Air Mail Scheme would mean a corresponding increase on home (War Department) funds for the cost of the garrison.\n\nThis Air Mail scheme is definitely of an imperial character, the cost of which is primarily a charge on home funds with contributions to such extent as can be collected from those individual Colonies which are touched by it. It seems to me reasonable, therefore, for Hong Kong to take the view that they would be prepared to levy x pounds.\n\nPage 9\n\n$300,000 over 5 years, first year's instalment to be $100,000.\n\nThese figures merely offer on to be paid with Imperial Airways. No. It had been thought that the Hong Kong taxpayer would bear the cost of the scheme, but since under the Defence Contributions Ordinance 20% has to be handed over to the War Department, they will only have x minus 20% to pay over to the Air Ministry Scheme. In that case, the 20% would fall to be met from Home Funds by addition to the Air Vote or be relieved of the Defence Contribution obligation in respect of this particular item of revenue, in which case Home Funds would be charged with this 20% by an addition to the War Office Vote.\n\nI don't think it is necessary to connect this question of Hong Kong's contribution to the Air Ministry's scheme with the other question of Hong Kong's subsidy to Air line link with the Colony. The Governor has not asked that the latter should be exempted from Defence Contribution, and in view of the particular interest to Hong Kong of that link, a claim to exemption would not be as strong as the present claim in No.2. If we can confirm with the Air Ministry the figure of £5000 in the altered circumstances of Hong Kong, it might then be considered whether we need delay negotiations with the War Office for exempting the necessary revenue for Hong Kong's contribution to the Empire Air Mail Scheme.\n\nPage 9\n\nIt seems to me that it would be wrong in principle to levy defence contribution upon Hong Kong's contributions towards air services designed to connect that Colony with the Empire.\n\nPage 10\n\nNo. This would not be the result. Hong Kong would have to pay £5000 to A/M in any case. The question is whether she should also pay Defence Contribution on the amount needed to make up the £5000. Hong Kong's contributions to both the trunk service from England to Australia and feeder service from Bangkok to HK, will be joint contributions, and if the result of levying defence contribution upon those contributions is that Hong Kong's share is less than it would otherwise be, the reduction will fall on the UK, i.e., W.O. votes will benefit at the expense of Air Ministry votes. It seems to me preferable, therefore, that we should try for the exemption in principle rather than on the specific amount.\n\nThe sum (say £5000) HK subsidy for the trunk service only.\n\n£7500 mentioned by Mr. Bader does not appear to come into the picture once that is ordinary postal expenditure which will in the normal course be set off against receipts from the sale of stamps. We are not yet in a position to say what contribution HK will be expected to make towards the subsidy required for the feeder service.\n\n31/12/34\n\nThere appears to me to be some confusion of thought and misunderstanding in the above minutes. The Hong Kong defence contribution is a percentage of assessable revenue.\n\nPage 10\n\nPage 11", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-550-3 Empire Air Mail Services- cost of participation to be exempted from assessment for military contributions... 19-10-1934 - 17-1-1935.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 546749, "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": "CO129-551-16 Vera Volkona- application for visa to enter United Kingdom 2-11-1935 - 30-12-1935", "page_number": 2, "title": "CO129-551-16 Vera Volkona- application for visa to enter United Kingdom 2-11-1935 - 30-12-1935", "content_text": "CI \n\nCommal / AF Williams \n\nm.r. \n\n2. \n\n11. 35- \n\n2 \n\nStates that Volkova desires visa to proceed to UK from Hong Kong and expresses hope that same will be franked.\n\n2.

Reference was made therein to the point of view of raising funds in the Colonies themselves. It will be some time before the Press can give any indication of the views. We have suggested assistance from the Exchequer, e.g., from the proceeds of any UK loan, to finance Colonies' requirements generally, apart from purely war purposes, especially in cases where, but for the war, loans would have been raised on the London Market. This case illustrates the danger of Colonies having to pay a much higher rate of interest as their credit may be delayed in being obtained in the UK.\n\n## \nWe discussed this problem with Sir Henry Moore yesterday, and I think it is a case which should be made available in London. Obviously, while the rate proposed may reflect current market conditions, these are either artificial, and I do not think the St. & S. Bank should have all the good things.\n\n## Copy of correspondence \nCopy of correspondence was shown to Foot's Agent, who is aware of the position regarding the financial proposals. Hot Boyce contemplates, I think, a partial issue, but the Bank is in a position to be left in the major part.\n\n## \nThis is the talk foreshadowed at 'X' in `54002/39`, and in view of the terms of the latter, I am rather surprised at the statement at the end of this one that \"no immediate need of cash is foreseen\". The surplus balances of $13,627,526 estimated to be available at the end of 1939 will be against the raising of loans. The sum advanced is expected to be $12,271,976 (of which $11,140,000 will be against the 1934 Loan and $1,131,976 against a future loan, mainly for waterworks, which has not yet been provided for by Legislation). The actual available carry-over, therefore, will be only $655,550, of which at least $450,000 is required in the form of cash, resulting in an overdraft of $321,783, if not more.\n\n## Revised estimates \nThe position in 1940/41 is at present difficult to appreciate, but it was proposed in the draft Estimates to continue advances against a future loan until at 31/3/41 advances against loans would have totalled $14,433,562. If the expenditure on minesweepers and aeroplanes, which the Government wishes to incur (see `(21)54002/39`), is approved, the Government will need the cash to pay for them as soon as they are ready. If it has not been collected in the form of income tax or some other emergency taxation by then, it will have to come out of surplus balances or the Exchange Fund surplus.\n\n## Loan \nIt is true that the need for more than the available liquid surplus of some $200,000 may not be strictly speaking \"immediate\", but in view of the generally uncertain economic and political position, it may arise much sooner than expected. There is nothing in the 1934 Loan Ordinance to say where it shall be raised, but the currency is HK dollars, the interest is HK payable, the bonds redeemable in HK, and nowhere else. The number of issues is not limited, only their total nominal amount, and it would not be essential to issue the whole of the balance now if it were not required, and there were a reasonable prospect of raising more on better terms later.\n\n## Proposed action \nI think that in writing to the Treasurer asking them to agree to the raising of the Loan in this country, as proposed by W. Boyce, we should point out that the immediate need for raising this loan is the intention to incur heavy expenditure in HK upon defence measures, which might otherwise have had to be met by HM Government. We should also send them a copy of the 1934 Loan Ordinance.\n\nPage 9\nPage 10\nPage 11", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-576-4 Loans for public works 3-7-1939 - 4-1-1940.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 564847, "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": "CO129-576-4 Loans for public works 3-7-1939 - 4-1-1940", "page_number": 15, "title": "CO129-576-4 Loans for public works 3-7-1939 - 4-1-1940", "content_text": "## 15\n\n& 6.

Part of the advances against them might well be written off against revenue. \n\nAll this seems very sound, though I do not agree with the last point of (v), since it may well be to HK's advantage not to diminish her existing borrowing powers, such as they are. \n(iv) seems an attractive idea.

As regards the letter from the Ministry of War Transport, paragraph 1 - they do not seem to have appreciated the effect of Clause 2(1) of the draft Order under which the Secretary of State will be able to make Defence Regulations for Hong Kong and amend existing regulations. He could therefore substitute references to himself or the Ministry of War Transport for references in the present regulations to the Governor or any other authority. Moreover, for Hong Kong purposes within the scope of Section 1(1) of the Emergency Powers (Defence) Act, 1939, he can by such Regulations amend enactments including Acts of Parliament.\n\nParagraph 2. See passage marked A in my minute of the 22nd of January. This is the sort of point I had in mind. It may be that the necessary amendments of the Merchant Shipping Acts could be made by Defence Regulation, but if the Ministry of War Transport prefer that we should deal with the matter in this Order, we can, using such powers as H.M. in Council possesses under the Merchant Shipping Acts, insert references to those Acts in the second and third paragraphs of the draft Order and add a specific provision to clause 2. (Power to amend the Order under the Act of 1932 was contained in Section 738 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894.)\n\nThe Order referred to by the Ministry of War Transport extends certain sections in their application to ships registered in Hong Kong and confers no powers upon the Governor. It seems to me that it is the Merchant Shipping Load Line Convention (Hong Kong) No.1 Order, 1938 (`S.R. & O. No. 781`) which has to be considered.\n\nI think the Ministry of War Transport must take ultimate responsibility for the wording of the provision they require, but I suggest that something on the following lines should be inserted in Clause 2 of the draft Order between the present paragraphs (1) and (2):-\n\nA \n(2) The provisions of Part II of the Merchant Shipping (Safety and Load Line Conventions) Act, 1932, which by the Merchant Shipping and Load Line Convention (Hong Kong) No.1 Order, 1938, were extended to Hong Kong, adapted and modified as set out in the Schedule to that Order, shall apply to Hong Kong subject to the further modification that the powers and functions exercisable thereby conferred upon the Governor or officers authorised by him shall be regarded as having been transferred to, and shall be exercisable by the Minister of War Transport or officers or persons authorised by him.\n\nI do not know whether any other modifications, e.g., in references to other officers, will be required.\n\nWith regard to the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, this Order cannot amend an Act of Parliament or an Order under it, nor can it amend...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-590-21 Government funds- temporary provisions 23-12-1941 - 4-12-1942.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 575048, "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": "CO129-590-21 Government funds- temporary provisions 23-12-1941 - 4-12-1942", "page_number": 15, "title": "CO129-590-21 Government funds- temporary provisions 23-12-1941 - 4-12-1942", "content_text": "## MR Caine \n9/6/42 \n\nI have discussed this with Mr. Gent, Mr. Blaxter, and Mr. Monson, and attach a fresh draft on the lines tentatively agreed. It is intended to meet Parliamentary Counsel's objections except as regards disposal of Hong Kong funds. The further I look into the proposal to transfer all the powers of the Governor and Government officers to the Secretary of State, the more I doubt whether it would be wise. It will be seen from the Second Schedule to the draft Order that some specific alterations of the pensions enactments seem to be necessary in order to make the transfer workable, and I should think it is highly probable that many other Ordinances would have to be dealt with similarly.\n\nI have not studied the pensions laws closely, and my amendments are merely suggestions. No doubt Pensions Branch will go into this matter. Perhaps Mr. Caine should be asked to consider the financial provisions, and Mr. Jones would like to see the draft in its final form to make quite sure that it is not likely to cause difficulties in prize matters. I have not inserted any provision about retirement of officers for the reason given in my minute of the 22nd of April.\n\nuk \n30/4/42. \n\nSin K.

Later drops of the Order presently being drafted by other departments will be circulated.\n\nWe must let the other interested Departments see this new draft explaining why we have amended it.\n\nI pass it through Mr. Whittle who will perhaps look at the draft from the point of view of the Second Schedule. If further additions to that Schedule in respect of pensions laws of Hong Kong are required, perhaps he will suggest what should be inserted, and then Mr. Roberts-Wray ought, I think, to see that Schedule again.\n\nWith regard to the last sentence of Mr. Roberts-Wray's minute of 30.4, will Mr. Whittle please say whether he is content on that point? \n\nMr.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-590-21 Government funds- temporary provisions 23-12-1941 - 4-12-1942.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 575456, "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": "CO129-590-23 Situation in Hong Kong 25-4-1905 - 25-4-1905", "page_number": 98, "title": "CO129-590-23 Situation in Hong Kong 25-4-1905 - 25-4-1905", "content_text": "97 \n\nand food. A glance at Ride's map and Lee's information confirmed that we were on the opposite side of the water to the SHATIN Straight, a position which it was our original intention to avoid at all costs!\n\nOur intention was then to follow the easy coast path from the village to any convenient sampan base in TOLO Harbour, but frequent groups of villagers and, more particularly, two Japanese in rowing boats, caused us to change our minds and make overland for such a base.\n\nThis decision involved the ascent of TURRET HILL, which was done towards the middle of the afternoon, and then we passed through a series of villages en route to our \"base\". The first village was SAN UK, where Lee reported the absence of Japanese and food. If questioned en route through these villages, it was our intention to describe ourselves as Germans. This precaution was unnecessary as the villagers were not too inquisitive, since Japanese had not penetrated so far at that time. Probably, in future, all such villages would have to be avoided. This means more food and a billy-can for boiling river water. A similar reception was obtained at the next village.\n\nFinally, near the village of MAU PING, we met a group of villagers who attached themselves to us and obtained for us a Chinese meal at MAU PING.\n\nSome of the same villagers then offered to guide us to SAIKUNG, our \"base\", and bargain there for a sampan to take us out of TOLO Harbour. Lee and one such guide went on ahead to make preliminary enquiries, while we three and another guide followed at a slower pace, this time on the main path to SAIKUNG, as the villagers believed correctly that we would not meet Japanese en route.\n\nWe reached SAIKUNG before dark and were left outside the village.\n\nAfter a two-hour wait, we contacted Lee, who quickly ushered us away from the village because of known NANKING sympathisers there, and out on to the hills, where we spent a miserably cold night.\n\n12th January, 1942.\n\nWith the dawn, we found a more sheltered spot in a nearby wood about two miles from SAIKUNG. Lee then returned to SAIKUNG to look for a boat. He returned with three pieces of bad news:\n\n(a) that the only offer of a boat that he had received was for 500 dollars;\n(b) that NANKING sympathisers in the village had had word of the arrival of three Europeans; and\n(c) that his original MAU PING guide had warned us to be on the look-out for a band of robbers known to be operating in that neighbourhood.\n\nThe last two pieces of news caused us to retreat still further into the wood, just in time, for", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-590-23 Situation in Hong Kong 25-4-1905 - 25-4-1905.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 575851, "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": "CO129-590-25 Accounts of events leading up to surrender and subsequent treatment of prisoners- etc 23-4-1942 - 28-9-1943", "page_number": 4, "title": "CO129-590-25 Accounts of events leading up to surrender and subsequent treatment of prisoners- etc 23-4-1942 - 28-9-1943", "content_text": "the loss of\n\na\n\nthe Prince of Wales & the Repulse.\n\nProbably\n\nЛовачите \n\nbr.\n\non rehim \n\n4\n\nGr Rollest \n\n13\n\n13/7\n\nIK /kid \n\nއއ \n\n14\n\nW827.14an \n\n8 Extract for.

They were sent to various stations and dispersal points. Mr. Wilson, Assistant Superintendent of Police, New Territories, from then onwards assisted Mr. Thompson, Superintendent of Police in general charge of Hong Kong divisions.\n\nUnder Special Branch supervision divisional Police completed round up of about 22 Japanese males. They were assembled at Tsim Sha Tsui for Kowloon and the Gaol Clearing Station for Hong Kong and finally all transferred to Stanley Internment Camp.\n\nSquads sent out to control crowds at rice shops in Hollywood Road, Des Voeux Road, Bonham Strand East and Queen's Road Central.\n\nAir Raid on Kowloon Docks took place with slight damage and few casualties.\n\nFurther air raids on Sham Shui Po Camp, with no casualties, most of bombs falling into the sea.\n\nOfficer in charge destroyed 6000 gallons of kerosine at San Uk Ling. Senior Superintendent of Police Kowloon had previously consulted Col. Newhman, General Security Officer I, who stated that special arrangements were in hand by the Military Authorities themselves to destroy gasoline supplies at the Texas Oil Company, if and when necessary and that no Police action was required.\n\nSecond air raid on Kowloon City occurred with some casualties.\n\nPolice evacuated to the Red Swastika Building, Dragon Terrace, under orders from the No.2 Sub Area Commander. (This move had been decided prior to the war to take place if hostilities broke out as the station was too near the A.P.C. tanks.)\n\nCompletion of evacuation of Tai O and Cheung Chau and arrival of personnel at Tsim Sha Tsui reported to Assistant Superintendent of Police Kowloon.\n\nPolice Sergeant A.32 Dowman went to Customs Pass to locate Police liaison party who had not reported to Military Authorities.

The Officer stated that the British troops would fall back slowly towards Tsim Sha Tsui taking up positions for street fighting on the way. Acting Sub Inspector Wallingford then returned to his post. L. S. A. 115 Watson and L. S.A.114 Ross were posted at Sham Shui Po Camp to watch for the enemy's advance. L. S. A. 7 Dempsey shortly afterwards reported that firing was taking place between the Royal Scots near the Tai Po Road and the enemy on the hillside above the Basel Mission. Further information was received that heavy firing had been heard coming from the vicinity of the Police Training School. L. S. A. 136 MacPherson reported that the enemy were above So Uk Village and the Tai Hang Rubber Factory. Rifle and Machine Gun fire was by now intermittent.\n\n(Inspector Saunders, Divisional Inspector Sham Shui Po state that he endeavoured to keep the Senior Superintendent of Police, Kowloon and his Sub Area Commander informed of the situation as often as possible but it was very difficult due to the heavy overloading of the telephones.)\n\nThe telephones were discovered to be out of order. The telephones were found to be dead. Inspector Saunders, Divisional Inspector Sham Shui Po, could get no contact with Kowloon Police Headquarters or with his Sub Area Commander, so in view of the previous evacuation of the Police Training School, of which he learnt when he rang up the Police Training School to enquire from them their situation shortly before they moved off and the local situation he gave the order to evacuate the Station on his own initiative.\n\nOn the way to the Vehicular Ferry it was noticed that troops were in position at street junctions in Sham Shui Po ready for street fighting.\n\n12.30(:) The Senior Superintendent of Police, Kowloon, rang up the Commissioner of Police and reported the situation at Sham Shui Po, Police Training School and Mong Kok, and received instructions to evacuate Kowloon combining phases \"A\" and \"B\". (Kowloon Police transport evacuate to Hong Kong and Kowloon Police main body evacuate to Hong Kong together.) The Senior Superintendent of Police, Kowloon and Chief Inspector Smith both tried in vain to get in touch with the Yaumati grouping line, and also Sham Shui Po, both on the public and Government lines. Sham Shui Po telephone bell rang but no answer was obtained.\n\nThe Senior Superintendent of Police, Kowloon, gained the impression that the enemy had probably already captured Sham Shui Po and that the Yaumati telephone clerks had absconded. He had previously prepared with assistance from Chief Inspector Smith two sets of orders for each station covering the two evacuation movements, phases \"A\" and \"B\" separately. These were now scrapped and he wrote out new orders, covering evacuation in one stage, instructing Officers in Charge of Stations that immediate evacuation should take place and that they were to go in an orderly manner as quickly as possible to the main gate in the Kowloon Godowns near Haiphong Road.

The Government found it expedient to give its cadets two years in China for language study, but the University could not afford to do anything of the kind. Its staff had always had an excessive burden of teaching duties, and not unnaturally, men used the little leisure they commanded for such research as was possible in their own branches of learning rather than to embark on the long period of intense study necessary to master so difficult a language as Chinese. The most regrettable result was that ignorance of the language limited their capacity to associate with Chinese in China itself, to their own loss. This increased a tendency in Chinese Government and educational circles to regard the University as an alien institution only partially integrated with Chinese life.\n\nNevertheless, graduates of the University play an honourable part in China, though their numbers are not great relative to the total of foreign-trained men. Associations of Hong Kong graduates exist in Chungking, Shanghai, Singapore, and Hong Kong, and there is a small but active associate in London. Two important members of the Chinese delegation to UNO were graduates of Hong Kong University. In the professions, especially in medicine, in banking, and commerce, graduates of the University are to be found in places of responsibility in the towns of the China coast, in the Dutch Indies, and Malaya, as well as in Hong Kong.\n\nThus, in spite of difficulties and of partial failure in respect of its greater aims, mainly due to evidence of sound teaching over a somewhat narrow field, a University Committee set up by Sir Geoffrey Northcote, the Governor acting as Chancellor of the University, was able to convince the Government that even for the adequate fulfilment of its purely colonial functions, its resources were insufficient.\n\nAcceptance of this conclusion brought into discussion the question also of fitting the University to play its part more fully in the promotion of friendly relations with China. It was realised that to do this, the University must be of a kind and scope beyond the needs and far beyond the resources of the Colony. Even if all the recommendations of the 1939 Committee had been implemented, as possibly, but for the war, they would have been, the result would have been an institution still inadequate for the greater aim. H.M. Government, in both the Colonial Office and the Foreign Office, was satisfied of the essential soundness of the aim and of the necessity of financial assistance from the Treasury for its fulfilment.

C. Chau, Manager of the Emporium Ballroom, when he was interviewed by a *Post and Telegraph* reporter.\n\nMr Chau said that by a coincidence in all cases the acid was thrown on the lower part of the girls' dresses and made from behind their backs. The various cases occurred mostly between the hours of 7.30 and 8.30 p.m. when the girls were going to their work, and only one case happened at 11 a.m. in daytime. He said one girl suffered burns to her back and another suffered similar burns on her leg. The first incident, added Mr Chau, occurred about three weeks ago and the last case was reported to the Police last Sunday. All these cases were reported to the Police, who are still making enquiries.\n\nMr Chau said that so far as he knew no arrests had been made and no-one was in a position to state why such attacks were made.\n\nMoscow says the British provoked the Cairo rioting.

It had been injured by a passing lorry. She went in and informed her mother, who came out, but the pig was gone. Following information she had received, the complainant went to the accused's village, where she found them slaughtering the pig. She recognised the pig as hers and asked them to return it. Upon their refusing, she went and reported the matter to the Police. When the Police arrived, the accused were cutting up the remnants of the pig. The pig weighed 60 catties and was valued at $400.\n\n## Radio\n### Hanghing Studio\n\nZBW Hong Kong broadcasting on a frequency of 640 Kilocycles and from 12.30 to 1.30 p.m., 6.30 to 7.30 p.m., and 9.00 to 11.00 p.m. also on 9.52 Megacycles.\n\nH.K.T.\n| Time | Programme |\n| --- | --- |\n| 12.30 | Daily Programme summary |\n| 12.32 | Eddie Carroll and Music |\n| 12.45 | \"Romance and Rhythm\" ENSA |\n| 1.00 | News and Announcements |\n| 1.10 | Casani Club Orchestra |\n| 1.30 | Music from the films |\n| 2.00 | Close Down |\n| 6.30 | Swing and Sway Sammy Kaye |\n| 7.00 | London Relay-News |\n| 7.15 | \"Ivor Pye\" The Singing |\n| 7.30 | Studio: Radio Play \"The Blagden Legend\" |\n| 8.00 | Classical Request Hour |\n| 9.00 | London Relay-News |\n| 9.05 | The Vagabond Sailor ENSA |\n| 9.35 | Music for Dancing |\n| 10.10 | Billy Thorburn and Music |\n| 10.25 | Ivor Novello and some of his successes |\n| 11.00 | Close down |\n\nProgrammes marked ENSA are recorded specially for Services Entertainment by the Dept. of National Services Entertainment.\n\n## A STOLEN COW\n### Disappears From Outside Dealer's House\n#### FOUND IN OTHER VILLAGE\n\nLau Sam was brought before Mr W.

He pleaded not guilty.\n\nThe complainant was called as the first witness and stated that he was a cattle dealer in Un Long. At 3 a.m. on Sunday he was asleep in his house. He had tied up his three cows outside. On waking, he found that his cows were no longer tied outside. He therefore made a search but failed to find them. He then made a report of his loss to the Police at the Ping Shan Police Station. At 7 a.m. he returned to his house and found two of his cows tied outside once more. Also, he received certain information so he went to the Ping Shan Police Station again and reported to Detective Sub-Inspector Rothwell. Then accompanied by the Police he went to Lo Fau Shan, where the third cow was recovered outside a house belonging to the accused. This was at about 10 a.m.\n\nThe second witness was P.C.C. 560 who stated that at about 9 a.m. on Sunday, on instructions given by Detective Sub-Inspector Rothwell, he went with the complainant to recover a cow which the complainant had reported lost. They recovered it from outside the accused's house.\n\nThe accused was found guilty and sentenced to six months hard labour. The cow was to be returned to the complainant.\n\nDetective Sub-Inspector Rothwell prosecuted.\n\n## ESCAPE FROM HOSPITAL\n\nChan Hung, an alleged house-breaker, was captured 15 minutes later at about 11.15 p.m. on Monday night in Waterloo Road near Peace Avenue.

From there Dr King reached Kukong.\n\nDr Woo, introducing the speaker, said that Lieut-Col King was formerly Professor of Gynaecology at Hong Kong University and at present was Assistant Director of Medical Services.\n\nA large attendance of members and their friends were present to hear the talk, and visiting Rotarians welcomed by the President, Dr Arthur Woo, were Messrs W. K. Way (Chungking), Y. K. Chow (Mukden), Peter Y. Kwok (Singapore), and H. Kaddorie (Shanghai).\n\nRotarian Kwok brought a message of greeting from the Singapore Club which, he said, had re-commenced functioning shortly after the establishment of the British Military Administration. There was at present a membership of about 70. Though no luncheon or dinner meetings were held owing to the difficult food situation, the Club held weekly tea meetings.\n\nRotarian Kadoorie also conveyed the greetings of the Shanghai Club which was holding meetings fortnightly, he said.\n\nThe Secretary, Rotarian T. E. Jackson, announced that the meeting next Tuesday would be a closed one, and one of the main topics of discussion would be their community-service.\n\nGuests welcomed were Messrs K. Crawford, J. Wilson, Kwok Chan, D. Djoung, W. Stoker, D. I. Bosanquet, Comdr Kirby, Lieut-Col T. W. Ware, Lieut-Col Y. S. Wan, Col Luke T. C. McDouall, Wai Lee, Messrs J. Man-wai and Major R. E. Farrell.\n\n### Dr Gordon King's Story\n\nLieut-Col Gordon King said:\n\n\"I had early been relieved of my duties as Medical Officer in charge of the Relief Hospital, but I was still able to do a certain amount of work in one of the other hospitals where I had some very loyal friends. Soon after the internment of a third of my colleagues, my position in this hospital was made quite untenable by an appointee of the Japanese, who made it quite clear to me that my visits would not long be tolerated.\n\n\"After considering all the possible means of exit I came to the conclusion that the greatest chance of success lay in finding a guide who would take me out by the East River route. I should have been entirely at a loss without the help of two Chinese friends and former students to whom I shall never be able adequately to express my gratitude. Through their aid, an agreement was made with a reliable man and all preparations were made. At first, I was to be disguised as a coolie, but later (somewhat to my relief) it was decided that it would be better for me to dress in shabby European clothes. A supply of food sufficient to last a week, together with a razor, a towel, and a sleeping bag were to be carried by the guide, and a suitcase full of clothes and other necessaries was to follow later if a way could be found. I was, of course, committed to complete secrecy about the whole affair.\n\n\"Just before dawn on February 10, 1942, I left my house, dressed in a shabby old raincoat, wearing an old felt hat and carrying a Chinese umbrella in my hand, met my escort at an appointed place and took an early tram to the Star Ferry. It was scarcely light, but already numerous people were crossing over. The two of us were both fully occupied and then quietly slipped on to the boat.\n\n\"On the Kowloon side, I mingled with the crowd, and, by dropping my head and shoulders and pulling my hat well down over my eyes, managed to leave the ferry without attracting the attention of the Japanese guards who were busily engaged in searching the passengers.\n\n\"My decision to escape from Hong Kong was made at an early date after the capitulation. Several factors influenced me in reaching this decision, and I think I can best set them before you in their chronological order.\n\n\"First of all, I had tried to carry on medical work for nearly a year under the Japanese regime in North China. In Hong Kong, after the surrender, I found that, as far as medical work was concerned, my position was very much worse than it had been in the North.\n\n\"The final spark which fired my determination was provided by an unfortunate encounter with the Japanese Gendarmerie over the cutting down of some trees. In the University Relief Hospital, for which I was responsible during the war, we had run completely out of fuel and we had no means of cooking for some 500 patients and staff unless some trees in the compound were felled for this purpose.\n\n\"Towards the end of January, however, the Japanese decided to transfer the University community to Stanley whither the majority of the internees had already been sent. I was then with Cheeloo University and was the Medical Superintendent of the University Hospital in Tsinan when most of my colleagues were transferred to Stanley. Before his departure, the Vice-Chancellor made it clear to me that the conditions under which we had been interned in the University had ceased to exist, and that as a servant of the University, I was entirely a free agent in making my future plans.\n\n\"During the months that ensued, I quickly realised how impossible it was, even as a servant of the University, to carry on medical work under the Japanese, and I decided that I should be doing much more useful work either in Hong Kong or in Free China. Towards the end of 1938, I was appointed to a post in the University of Hong Kong, and it was with very great relief that I left Shantung.\n\n\"After several requests, permission was finally obtained from the senior officer of the Japanese military unit which was billeted in the University, and three large trees were felled at dawn the next day. The trees were being cut up in the courtyard of one of the emergency hospital buildings when I was hurriedly summoned to the scene, and there I found the chief of the newly formed Gendarmerie with a small party of his men and an interpreter. The officer was livid with rage; he gave me no opportunity to explain and asked me who had given authority for the trees to be felled, and when I told him that a military officer in the compound had done so, he asked me to produce a written permit. When I told him that the permission was only verbal, he flew into a paroxysm of rage and Rotarian...

Much we need would unduly overdo it. Students from some countries (India; Sudan, etc.) get allowances which are much higher than ours & could be an embarrassment to them.\n\nTo: My point was that a student who received high wages, had high tax, since we abate allowance in gross salary, the man who had a large tax got less, in total, than the man who paid small tax. The man who got no salary, & therefore had no tax, got most of all. The tax-paying student in my fact never got £30 a month.\n\n## Reference to Pre-War Scheme\n\nReference is made in the application at No.12 to the pre-war scheme operated by the FBI and the Chinese Government, and it is stated that the students brought here under that scheme received an allowance to bring their net earnings up to £30 a month. Miss Ruston in her minute of 16/5/47 quotes the FBI as saying that the present-day Chinese students financed by the Chinese Government receive an allowance calculated so that the actual income tax liability which the student himself bears is the amount of tax taken from the wages of the lowest paid of the students.\n\nTo pay our CD students the difference between their net earnings and £30 a month would therefore place them at a slight advantage as compared with the Chinese Government students, which would perhaps present the Chinese Embassy with a problem should the two groups of students ever be in a position to compare notes.\n\nNevertheless, I feel that to supplement the net earnings is the best way, in spite of the fact that it involves the virtual refund of tax from UK funds. It ensures that every student receives the same sum to live on as all the others (which the present Chinese scheme also admittedly does), but it would avoid the constant necessity for watching what the lowest paid student pays in tax and bring the others into line - a complicated affair, particularly if, as is probable, the students will go to different firms for their apprenticeships.\n\nMr. Titchener has referred to the possibility of a particular student being given higher wages by his firm as a reward for good work, the student however being unable to reap the benefit of the increase because his wages would still be evened out to the £30 a month maximum. I do not think, however, that we should take this point too seriously. Other CDW students in this country plough through four and five year courses without benefit of increased allowances, unless they pass the 25-year age point, or some general increase in allowances is approved. Some of these make better progress than others, some get University scholarships, which bring them no monetary benefit, at present.\n\n## Method of Payment of Allowances\n\nAs regards the method of payment of the allowances, the position is a little difficult. The students will be in receipt of a weekly wage, which we have to augment by means of an allowance expressed in monthly terms. Other maintenance allowances are paid in advance, and the first point to be decided is whether the allowances under this scheme should be paid in advance or in arrear.\n\nSince the wages will be paid in arrear, and the allowance is to be directly linked to the wages, it would be best, I think, to pay the allowance also in arrear. This would be in agreement with the practice regarding the payment of certain post-graduate allowances paid to e.g., Colonial Products Research Council workers, and would avoid confusion in the minds of the students themselves.\n\nThe second point is whether we should make a single monthly payment direct to the student, or possibly get the firms concerned to pay the allowance weekly, so that the student receives a regular weekly income, the firm claiming on us for refund at regular intervals. I think the first of these alternatives is best, on...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-596-5 Hong Kong University- Apprenticeship scheme 28-10-1948 - 23-12-1948.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 583330, "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": "CO129-597-2 Estimates 1949 1-3-1948 - 14-7-1949", "page_number": 26, "title": "CO129-597-2 Estimates 1949 1-3-1948 - 14-7-1949", "content_text": "42.\n\nreviews of the Cines are their Extricates are on which Hong Kong Yas cemed the 1949-50 but it appears pram para 7 of (40) that we may expect to heer something I think perhaps about this fairly need do at this all we knowledge receipt of this that the general stage is 1 a agreeing Vera's general position is satisfactory, adding that with interest probable trends then survey, 1949-50, await of the Bladerd 11/2 19.1.49.\n\nExtract pron For Eastern Economic Reviews I find hate food of th.

The salient points, which I summarise for your attention, appear to be:\n\n1. The year had been a record one for trade and the theme of the speech revolved round that factor since Hong Kong is essentially an entrepot.\n\n2. The total value of Imports and Exports of £229,000,000 (Sterling) showed an increase of approximately 32% over the equivalent 1947 figure.\n\n3. Trade with China had shown an unfortunate decline although she is the Colony's principal customer.\n\n4. Industry. Increased competition in foreign markets had made the year a difficult one. New manufactures introduced during the period under review were: cotton spinning, metallurgical industries, plastics and the manufacture of textile machinery for local use. Generally speaking, the long-term view on industry is uncertain.\n\n5. Symptomatic of the year were the following:\n - In 1947 18,990,420 tons of shipping were handled, whereas for 1948 this had risen to 22,400,750 tons.\n - Twenty-five thousand air passengers arrived and departed every month from Kai Tak.\n - In carrying nearly 3 million passengers, the railway showed a passenger increase of 34% over 1947 and 31% over 1936.\n - Handling in excess of 1,000 bags of mail daily, the Post Office showed an increase of 44% over 1947 in ordinary mail and of 33 1/3% in airmail.

If all of territories took this attitude, our primary object to carry out our obligations towards finding alternative posts for officers will be frustrated. Malaya is already opposing it and wants to recommend local officers, who were not previously considered suitable, for promotion rather than the gazetted officer from Palestine.\n\nMy personal view would be to press for the appointment of officers from Palestine now, but in the face of the Commissioner's strong objection, it will probably be felt that it would be very difficult to do so, and that it would be better to drop the matter for the time being and wait till Mosley returns to H.K. If this decision is taken, we must reply to (2) to the effect that the first two vacancies have been filled, but that the Commissioner of Police has asked that the third post should remain open until he returns to H.K.; our reply to (3) should also be sent to the effect that it is regretted that it has not proved possible to find an officer from elsewhere for the H.K. mechanised unit, as the only available candidate (M.

The intervening journey to Melbourne and the three weeks I stayed there gave opportunity for relaxation as well as work.\n\nImmediately after my arrival I visited the Navy Office and discussed with the DNI and the D of I RAAF the future training of language-officers. Meetings were also arranged with members of JCOSA, including General Cawthorne, formerly directly concerned, as DI India, in the products of the SOAS courses; Air Vice-Marshal Graham, the UK Air Representative, and Commodore Armstrong, Second Naval Member, AC Naval Board.\n\nI was not, unfortunately, able to visit Sydney, where Japanese and Play courses for civilians were still in being at the University. The daily expectation of a plane, though it prolonged my visit for a fortnight beyond the limit originally proposed, made it unwise to leave Melbourne, but I had time and opportunity there to see some of the University Professors and Heads of Colleges. Towards the end of my stay the Vice-Chancellor returned from New Zealand, and I heard from him of the difficulty of establishing the department of Oriental Studies in Melbourne University for which money has been available for some considerable time.\n\n## POINT COOK RAAF TRAINING CAMP\n\nI spent half-a-day at the Japanese School at Point Cook Training Camp, about 16 miles from Melbourne. The officer-in-charge of the course, S/Ldr. Wiadrowsky, showed me his proposals for a future programme of training, but as they were still under consideration I was not able to do more than glance at them on the spot. It was from this School that students were being sent to Japan after four months' training - a system as little satisfactory to Point Cook as to CSDIC in Japan, especially as opinion was agreed in both places that the available students (volunteers) were not on the whole of a satisfactory standard educationally.\n\n26", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-616-1 Correspondence on the production of a Cantonese-English dictionary; Report on a tour of South East... 1-1-1946 - 31-12-1947.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 593763, "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": "CO129-616-1 Correspondence on the production of a Cantonese-English dictionary; Report on a tour of South East... 1-1-1946 - 31-12-1947", "page_number": 57, "title": "CO129-616-1 Correspondence on the production of a Cantonese-English dictionary; Report on a tour of South East... 1-1-1946 - 31-12-1947", "content_text": "## RESEARCH CENTRES IN THE EAST\n\nThe Report of the Scarborough Commission proposes that research centres in some form should be established in Peiping for Chinese, in Kyoto, Sondai or Tokyo for Japanese, and in Singapore (and possibly Bangkok and Rangoon) for South East Asian studies.+ Such centres in these places should represent the maximum as well as the minimum necessary for many years to come to provide facilities for research and if a Modern Department were included in each for courses in modern language and \"background\" subjects for practical purposes. On the modern side, however, some additional provision for practical courses in dialects of Chinese (Cantonese and Hokkien) would also be required.\n\n## CO-OPERATION WITH THE DOMINIONS\n\nEfforts being made in Australia to encourage Oriental, or \"Pacific\" studies as they are sometimes called there, suggested that the proposal to invite the Dominions to co-operate with the UK in developing research might be welcomed, not only by the State universities at Sydney and Melbourne, but also by the Australian Government, which proposes to include research in Oriental studies in the future Federal University at Canberra. On the modern side senior members of the Fighting Services in Australia also felt that co-operation between Australia and the UK in the training of language-officers was desirable (Para. $24).\n\nCanada suffers, so it is said, in her efforts to promote Far Eastern studies from the attractions offered to scholars in this field by the United States, and might therefore be ready to co-operate in developing joint centres with the UK, especially in the Far East.\n\n## CO-OPERATION WITH THE UNITED STATES\n\nHowever desirable co-operation with the US in Peiping may be, a joint Anglo-American centre should follow the establishment of a British centre. The Americans have far surpassed us in their provision for research + The proposal was unknown to me until three months after I discussed the possibility of a centre of Chinese studies in Peiping with HE the Ambassador in Nanking.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-616-1 Correspondence on the production of a Cantonese-English dictionary; Report on a tour of South East... 1-1-1946 - 31-12-1947.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 593788, "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": "CO129-616-1 Correspondence on the production of a Cantonese-English dictionary; Report on a tour of South East... 1-1-1946 - 31-12-1947", "page_number": 76, "title": "CO129-616-1 Correspondence on the production of a Cantonese-English dictionary; Report on a tour of South East... 1-1-1946 - 31-12-1947", "content_text": "## AUSTRALIA \n76\n\n### (a) REPRESENTATIVES OF SERVICES\n\n- Abrahams, Major, Army representative at School of Japanese, RAAF Training Camp, Point Cook, Melbourne.\n- Armstrong, Commodore J.M., D.S.O., R.A.N., Second Naval Member, Australian Commonwealth Naval Board.\n- Iaden, Air Vice-Marshal, RAAF.\n- Burrell, Captain H.M., Deputy Chief of the Naval Staff of the RAN.\n- Burridge, Air Vice-Marshal, O.C.

These conditions are to a large extent caused by the influx of refugees from China.\n\nThe intention is to construct two groups of four blocks of five-storeyed flats, the two groups being located on adjacent pieces of land in the SHEUNG LI UK area of New Kowloon to the south west of the Tai Po Road. The location has been selected largely because it is in close proximity to the large industrial areas of Shamshuipo and Lai Chi Kok, and is therefore conveniently placed for the type of persons whom it is particularly desired to benefit.\n\nThe blocks of flats will contain a varying number of tenements according to their size, and the total number of flats will be 370, of which 190 will be on one site and 180 on the other. Sketch plans of the flats and of the layouts are enclosed as Appendices C and D.\n\nThe total cost of the 190 flats is estimated at $1,132,968, including $120,000 for site formation and 6% of the building costs only for architects' fees. The corresponding figure for the 180 flats is $1,076,500 including $96,000 for site formation and the same scale of architects' fees. These figures do not include the value of the land which is $293,700 and $207,080 in each case and which it is proposed should be recovered over the duration of the lease in annual instalments with interest.\n\nIt will be noted that the plans allow for one living room, a kitchen, w.c. and small balcony in each flat. This is considered to be the minimum possible standard of accommodation on health and social grounds and is preferred to a cheaper form of barrack accommodation with communal kitchen, bathrooms and w.c.'s on each floor. The plan is designed to allow for the maximum through ventilation and is sufficiently strong to withstand typhoon conditions without being extravagant.\n\nIn order to make a start with this scheme at the earliest possible date, it is proposed that the Public Works Department should undertake the site formation, construction of access roads, and installation of water and drainage for which assistance from Colonial Development & Welfare funds is now sought, and that the sites, when formed, should be handed over to the Hong Kong Housing Society. I enclose as Appendix E a memorandum setting out the aims and objects of this Society. If these proposals are approved, the Society will be required to become incorporated and, on formation of an Improvement Trust on the lines indicated in the covering despatch, to merge its functions into those of the Trust and make over the flats to it.\n\nIn view of the magnitude of the housing project now contemplated, it is proposed that the Hong Kong Council of Social Service should be advised to use the grant of £14,000 from the Lord Mayor of London's Empire Air Raid Distress Fund for other purposes, but the services of their trained Housing Manageress, who has since arrived in the Colony, are expected to be of great assistance.\n\nPage 40\n\nPage 41", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-627-3 Housing project- contains drawings 1-2-1951 - 31-10-1951.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 599390, "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": "CO129-627-3 Housing project- contains drawings 1-2-1951 - 31-10-1951", "page_number": 47, "title": "CO129-627-3 Housing project- contains drawings 1-2-1951 - 31-10-1951", "content_text": "ARCHITECTURAL OFFICE\n\nP.W.D.
