When the two Republican transports Ki patrick and McClellan passed through Singa pore for Manila, the latter owing to leaky boilers having bad to be taken in tow by her consort some time after the voyage from New York be- gan, it was stated by one of the American offi cers that the reason why no boiler repairs would ho made in Singapore or at Hongkong was that the work could be more cheaply done by the American Naval authorities in their own dockyard, this probably referring to Subig Bay close to Manila. This statement appears to be reflection on the scale of repairing charges at Tanjong Pagar, a matter which the Board might look into, because whether there is sound

is not goo reason for the statement or no, for the Singapore Docks or for Singapore itselt hat the rumour should obtain currency that docking here is an expensive business. The act that the Dockyard floard being now practically a Colonial Department is no longer able to include in its accounts the return com. missions and fees for the introduction" of business that came out so prominently in the recent inquiry, may have a good deal to do with repairing business passing our doors. But surely owners would refuse *pay charges that should be, if they are not, less than those in other ports by pro cisely the amounts thus surreptitiously paid out as douceurs to esurient slippers and en. gipeers. We invited, a few months ago, any unofficial member to ask in the Legislative Council what ratio the revenues of the Tan- jong Pagar Board for the second half of 1955 bore to the revenues of the Tanjong Pagar Dock Company in the first half year. Nomember did so. Why not? And again it is a matter of interest in regard to the passing of those American troopships without recourse to local repairing facilities, to learn whether the repair. ing and docking revenue had fallen off during the half year under the contiel of the git N The Government knows through its nominees on the board; and all other members of the. Board know. But the public, does not know nith-ugh it is the Colonial revenues which are implicated in the transfer. Everybody in this place is directly or indirectly concerned, that the resort of shipping to Singapore for coaling und repairs, should be so faciliated and should mean such cuanomiss to owners, that Singa-TWO GODOWNS at East Point, close to the Water, suitable for the storage of pore should become, what it is not yet, the most popular docking port in the Far East, any Cargo.

As regards the AfcClellan officer's allegation as to the cheapness of Manila compared with Hongkong, a "shareholder" writes to the Hongkong Telegraph to combat that statement. He desires to draw attention to the conviction that, if the allegation of the U.S. naval officer is true, "it behoves the authorities of our repairing yard to remove the stigma altach ing to the. Company. But if the unenviable notoriety given to our dock establishments of their high charges is 'baseless, i equally be- hoves the Company's directors to exercise their energy to set before the American Naval

Authorities a correct appreciation of the facts that the local estimates are framed within rea. son and the charges are governed by current rates ruling in the market of the East"

He further

says In the past the American Navy has been amongst the best constituents of the Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Co. Why any estrange ment should have existed between the Com pany and its patrons, is not easily conceivable to the man-in-the-street. As a matter of fact, hene should exist. Given tact, good judgment, and a desire to please (which, it must be con- ceded, those in high place as regards the Docks possess in a large measure) there is no good"

After detailing the difficulties experienced Lot during the Cellan's voyage from faulty boilers, and the risks of her being towed for thousands of miles, "Shareholder" concludes

thus:-

I urge these facts upon the attention of the Dock Company's directors, through the medium uf your columns, with a view of their exercising some enterprise-should they be faithful to their charge-and endeavouring to secure the repairing of the transport by the local company. This is an age of enterprise, and "Hustling" should be the watchword of the large indus trial undertaking of this Colony upon whoic fortunes so much and so many depend. Let the directors despatch an efficient cogiveer- factful man with al-one not given to bluntness and blundering, and negotiate with the Cavite Authorities for the McCellan. The job may be a comparatively small one; but if it should serve to remove the stigma whereby the Hong Kong Docks are libelled for its so-called
