two years prior to the Application for Retra. THE in.-Regulations 8, 19. and 21 contain the provisions for the protection of established marks, sach protection consisting in the fact that such marks "cannot be registered "--(I may here note that other translations interpret this" wil be refused rezistration") and in the event of infringement, the proprietor has the right to procead against the offender who (if he be a Ckinese) on the case being proved will be punished.

This is the reading of the regulations by one section of the Members of the Chamber, while there is another section to whom it is not clear that those three articles contain evca efficient. protection for old marks which are not register. ed in Chine.

But assuming that the former interpretation is the correct one, it means that the proprietors of old morks must koop a constant watch, par-

not being infringed--a contingency that would certainly arise otherwise, as the marks not being registered. the Registrar would not at tho time of application by another, be in possession of the information which would justify him in refusing registration.

The grounds on which the request for post-manently, in order to see that their marka ara ponement is based are, that farther consideration is deemed advisable on the following points, and that as many firms and individuals here are acting as Agents for others in Europe, there is not sufficient time before 231 October fur No. 5, 190, just renovated,

(4) According to Clause VII of the British Treaty 1902, the Engistration Offices are to be under the Imperial Maritime Customs. In all Departments of the Customs, English is the universal language for the transaction of business with foreigners, and there would appear to he no safficient reason why an excep-

tion should be made in respect of the Registrar's Department-more especially as the staff will be foreign and English is the one language common to all the nationalities of which the Customs staff is composed.

As it was evidently not the intention of the

that Merchants should be in a worse position than, they were bofore, this Chamber cannot doubt that a more reasonable and less burden- some form of protection than the prosent Regu- lations contain will be insisted on.

In all countries where Trade Marks are

protected, protection is based on Registration, which appears to this Chamber to be the only sound basis, but the cost of registering 200 or 300 marks under the seals laid down in Regula- {tion 23 is probibitive, and this Chambor rentures to suggest that the difficulty might be met by requiring owners of Trade Marks registered abroad. und marks which have been usad in China for over two years, to deposit such marks with the Registrar, accompanied by satisfactory proof of title, in order that the Registrar might have in his possession the necessary particulars for reference wheu considering applications. Should this suggestion not meet with approval, another way out of the difficulty might be found in permitting proprietors of such marks to register the same for the payment of an initial Fee of day Tls, 30, and a further fee of TI, 1 for every mark so registered.

Finally, this Chamber is strongly of opinion that it is very desirable that an authorised which shall be accepted as the official guide in English translation of the Regulations be issued dealing with all Foreign Trademarks,

In giving the foregoing details, it has been ny aim to dwell only on those points which appear to be of fundamental importance and to pass ever minor ambiguities, which one may suppose will receive attention before the Pro visional Regulations are made absolute.

I have endeavoured to show that the claim for an extension of six months is well founded, and I earnestly trust that Your Excellency may con- sider that the reasons given warrant your mak- ing a request to the Chinese Government in this

sense.

I have the honour to be, Your Excellency's most obedient and humble Servant, WILLIAM D. LITTLE, Chairman.-N.-C. Daily News. ----
