THE SANITARY BOARD.
The following is an extended account of the business transacted at yesterday's meeting of the Sanitary Bond:-
ATANDING ORDERS.
With regard to the proposed standings orders, the President said it was evidently the wish of the Government that applications regarding exemptions from the provision of open spaces should he dealt with by the full Board. A cmmunication to that effect had been received from the Colonial Secretary, and there fore he did not propose to f rther deal with the first of the proposed additional standis orders, With reference to the second, would exredite - the business of the Board, if it was agreed to by the members. He thought the agenda of the present meeting would show that some such stasding order was necessary, otherwise they would have something over 20 or 24 of such applications to deal with practically at each meeting of the ard. He moved that the Board à ate this standing order.
The Vice-President seconded.
Mr. Hewen, ia oppa,ing the motion, said that at the last meeting of the Board he had stated his objections to the insertion of these st..ding orders, and he was glad to find that, so far as -nest important one, the concer, ed that Government bud fall u in with their views.
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, FRIDAY, JULY 31, 1903.
In moving the resolution sunding in hs name, Mr. Pollock said he thought it must be apparent to every member of the Board that the legislation which w passed will reference
the
to cubicles and was contained in Ordinance 1 of 1993 was unworkable in practice. No douhi the Government when it passed Section 54 of that Ordinance must have been under the impression that every third house was likely shonly to be pulled down and that lateral windows were going to be made side-walls of the houses and that in that way the cubicles in the hou es would receive light and air. That was no doubt the impression in the minds of the Government whes that section was passed, but he thought it was quite obvious now that every third house was not likely to be
pulled down under existing arrangements, and, farthermore, he believed it was extremely doubtful whether it would be safe in the case of old houses in the Colony to pull down every
third house. This Colony is subject to typhoons and heavy rains and he imagined that in the case of old houses the taking down of every third house would be a very danger- ons operation unless some very expensiv method were employed to prevent the houses on each side from collapsing into the middle and thereby creating a worse state of affairs ihan existed at present. In view of the fact that it was not likely that every third house would was most important that matters of this soit be taken down; the effect of Section 145 of should be dedit with by the fall Board, in sup-
this Ordinance, assuming that the Magistrate held putitions to be legal at all, would be part of his contention he could only repeat What he in and at the last meeting. Sperk that cubicles could be grouped round the ing for himself, and he believed for all the windows, and all the rest of the floor which was unofficial manliers of the Bound, they were not taken up by the c bicles w. uld be very dark, very busy men, and it was impossible for them very badly ventilated, and, one might say, prac to give close attention to matters ciculated on tically useless for any purpose whatsoever. papers or to decide by such a means whether a Now, this was as different as almost anything ficence should be granted or not. The other could be from the scheme which was passed by night, when leaving his office at 5 o'cclock, he the Legislature as late as 190. In Ordinance had two tin boxes chock full of papers from the 13 of 1901, sub-section (c) of section 70, it was Board put to his hands, and another was expressly provided that no partition should be brought the following morning. These papers

If a man proposed to start in partition should begected or if already existing business as a baker or as a boiler of fat, he dil should be allowed to remain nearer than four not make up his mind all at once. He new feet to any window. Therefore the practical what he was going to do weeks or months be-effect abviously of section 154 of Ordinance fore, whether he wanted a new licence granted of 1903 would be that if it was desired to main- or an old one renewed, and if it was necessary for him to give earlier notice to the Board he could do so. Withou comment ng on the way the work was done, or making any unfavourriginally in conformity with Ordinance 13 of able criticism in the matter at all, it appeared to him that there must be some way of getting these applications through more quickly, and if him, be sllegal under the provisions of a way could not be found t'e applicants should be made to understand that it took a certain amount of time to get their applications passed through, and that they must make any applica- tions in good time any way.
The President-Do you move an amend-That was a very unsatisfactory state of affairs ment?
to cubicles, and it appeared desirable to insert something to that effect.
Mr. Pollack did not think it desirable to limit the resolution, because they might possibly have to consider other matters more or less connected with cubicles. They had better leave the motion general otherwise they might have to go back to the Board for a further mandate.
The Vice-President thought that the words "more especially with reference to the question of the provision of cubicles in dwelling-houses," or something to that effect, should be inserted. The President:-More especially with re- ference to section 154,
Mr. Pollack would rather not limit it to that extent.
The Vice President More especially with reference to cubicles in dwelling houses, or something to that effect.
Mr. Pollock-I don't think there is any object in limiting the resolution. The sub- committee might be trusted to
keep to certain points
The President:-It is somewhat wide in its scope, but I gather from Mr. Pollock's remarks that it is intended to apply to the cubicle question.

The motion was put to the meeting and carried.
The President nominated the following as members of the sub-committee:-Mr. Pollack, Mr. Rumjaha, Mr. Lau Chu Pak, Dr. Pearse, and the President.
Mr. Hewelt seconded. Mr. Lau Chu Pak suggested the inclusion of Mr. Fung Wa Chun's name.

Mr. Fung Wa Chun :--Yes, I think so; five are quite enough. (Laughter.)

There was 1.0 doubt, he thought, that in order to get atters thoroughly threshed out doubt other points also would require to be it was advisable that they should be discussed boked into, bus it was this question of cubicles and deliberated by the whole Board.
