FINANCIAL POSITION

Sir Henry Pollock, senior Unofficial Member asked that a reduction of liquor and tobacco duties be considered, as a means of getting increased sales and therefore more revenue. He was

Bir of opinion that opium "prohibition" was impractical Henry made a sharp criticism of the Government's delay in build- ing a new. Central British School. He regretted that the Medi- cal Services had had to be pruned. He also advised the Government to make future provision for the proper stafing

Approval was expressed by the senior Unofficial Member of the proposed Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve unit, and also of the find for the assistance of distressed ssamen

The bus services in the Island and on the Mainland came in for servere criticism."

The Hon. Mr. Mackle in the course of his speech expressed satisfaction that the Harbour dredging was being taken up seriously. With regard to the new motor Road in Magazine. Gap, he suggested that motor lorries should not be allowed to use the road unless they were employed in connection with building in that district, ....”

The Hog Mr. R. H. Kotewall asked that amesament tax be levied on flats in the ease of Chinese tememe home in stead of on each house ss in the present case. Haid that the landlords were being made to suffer by the system prevailing at present. In this view he was supported by the Hon. Mr. T, N. Chau. Mr. Kotewall naked when the Juvenile Court was ex- pected to function and took the opportunity to thank H. E. the Governor for allowing the Chinese the continued. use of the bathing beach at North Point,

The Hon. Dr. Tso was glad that higher posts were " made available to the Chinese in the Palice Force, but conside- red that the salaries were too meagre to attratt men of educa- tion.

The Official Replies

The Hon. Director of Medical and Sanitary Services gave and interesting account of the anti-Malarial work at Shing

Mun.

The Hon. Inspector General of Police said that representa- tions had been made to the licensees of the bus services to im- prove matters and that failing compliance it might become ne- cessary to apply the penalty clauses in the contract.

The Colonial Treasurer said that rents of Chinese tenement property in Hong Kong were falling due to over-building and to some extent to the trade depression.

The Colonial Secretary replied to the critfam of details in his "Budget.

H.E. the Governor in his speed said that the economical blizzard struck the Colony a tle later than it did other places, but it came with the severity of a typhoon.."

He indicated that the population will have to pay more for its water in future when possibly there will be no free allowance, but a minimum shance at a reduč -ed rate."..

He expressed the hope that a Cha of Health will be established in the University, where, many improve- ments have been provided for.

Sir William said that satisfactory ogress – was being made with the preparation of the site of he New Govern ment Civil Hospital. He described the present, gaol as

disgrace and told members that rapid progress” was being made with the new gaol.
