KOWLOON DISTILLERY IN TROUBLE.

"ALLEGED SECRET DIS-

TILLING:

MYSTERIOUS MOVEMENTS OF

WINES.

The proprietor and managing Partner of the Wah Fung Distillery at Chuen Wan, Kowloon, appeared before Mr. R. E. Lindsell at the Central Magistracy on five charges of contravening the Wince Ordi- nances The chief count was that the Distillery is making wine secretly and not keeping correct records.

Mr. J. D. Lloyd, of the Import Export Office, prosecuted and Mr. M. K. Lo was for the defence."

Mr. H. A. Taylor and Revenue Officer J. Brown made a surprise visit to the Distillery on the after- noon of August 1st. They found spirits being secretly distilled and details being ignored in the record books to which representatives of the Revenue Office have access,

Furthermore, as a result of the sudden visit everything was found to be wrong with the order of work. The spirits were extraordi narily weak, and then the produc- tion book had not been entered up for that day, as required regula tions. The Distillery had distilled 16 jars of molasses spirits and five jars of rice spirits, but had made absolutely no entry in the produc tion books in respect of such out- put.

An Attempt To Make A New Entry.

Whilst the Revence Officers were inspecting the kongs in the Dis tillery yard somebody made an entry in the book for the day. In his haste the writer had put the wrong date and when the book was opened the lettering was found to be smudged.

As a result of the inspection in the Distillery yard, certain kongs which, in accordance with the gen eral routine, should have been empty were found to be full Again in another series, three of Plaintiff then saw defendants" the kongs which should have been The ex- again and asked them to send the empty were half full. goods to Punta Arenas in Chile planation given by the Distillery Defendants promised to do so.
