The following letter was written

Sir-The telegraphic report in "The Times" of June 7 and pre- vious messages from your League Correspondent at Geneva on the subject of the Optum Advisory Committee's twentieth session Justify the conclusion that, "despite the appeal addressed to them a | year ago by the Americani, delegate (Mr. Stuart Fuller), the Commit- tee has not yet faced the danger- ous situation which has arisen out of the vast increase of opium cul- tivation in China and the conse- quent manufacture of narcotic drigs in that country. On the contrary, it would appear that the conferences of he Committee still afford occasions for the "Chinese.

The name of the Cheung Kee Cheong Firm was then called, but there was no answer.

» The ground for the petition was that the Corporation was unable to pay its debts. There were assets in the jurisdiction and the papers were all in order..

In regard to the question of costs

of the creditors, Mr. Jenkin sui- gested that as the four creditors were represented by one counsel there should be one set costs.

Mr. Lee supported the petition on behalf of the four creditors.

All costs including one set costs in respect of the four creditors who had given notice of their inten- tion of

supporting the petition, were ordered to be given from the assets of the Corporation.

the essential facts of this situation. He has avalled him- self, as reported by, your cor- respondent, of the present opport“ unity to inform the Committee:

(1) That if Persia continued to export opium to China, "the efforts which his Government were mak- ing to stamp out the opium evil would be rendered futile"; and (2) that his Government had given proof of its determination to put an end to the oplum evil and the traffic in narcotic drugs by execut- ing 263 persons for trafficking or clandestine manufacture.

The Persian drug is a luxury

the

article, imported for the beneft of wealthy connoisseurs, and trade in it could not exist without the knowledge and cooperation of Chinese officials.

As regards the second matter, a number of unfortunate individ- uals have undoubtedly been ex- ecuted, but the accounts of these executions. which have been pub- Ished seem to indicate that they have usually taken place, either as demonstration or anti-oplum zeal

by local enthusiasis, or as semi-i 'official' gestures calculated to deter private enterprise from encroach. Ing on a jealously-guarded mono- poly; they are certainly not regard- ed as normal penalties imposed under a generally recognized pro-

cess of law. This is confirmed by

a report to the "North China Daily News" from its correspondent In Kudiyang, which states that Ge- neral Chiang Kai-shek, discussing the problem of opium abolition there with the Kueichou authorit les three months ago, declared that It would be a crime to order sud- den suppression, without first pro- vidings the farmers with alterna-

THE English doctor is the most conservative medical man in the world, and when he not only recommends but personally uses a remedy there can be no more con- vlacing proof of its efficacy. This doctor is but one of many who constantly advise the use of Bisurated Magnesia, in all cases of indigestion. Most stomach trouble is chased by acidity, and the reason why Bisgrated Magoesia gives quick relief is that it in- stantly neutralises excess acid, and soothes, heals and strengthens the inflamed stomach lining.
