LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.

TRIBUTES TO SIR SHOUSON CHOW.

SHING MUN SCHEME,

The retirement from his poui- tion as an Unofilela Member of the Legislative Council of Sir Shouson Chow formed the subject of valedictory speeches by Bis Excellency, the Governor,

After Mr. T. N. Chau had taken the Oath of Allegiance as

an Un- official Member of the Council, in place of the Hon. Sir Shougo Chow, whe has retired, IIts Ex- cellency said:

Honourable Members: Since we Just met in this Chamber, thin Council has sustained a serious loss. Sir Shouson Chow had been a member for a period of ten years. having been appointed originally on the 2nd December, 1921, for six Pears, and re-appointed on the 2nd December, 1927, for four years. The Secretary of State has ruled that, except. In special circums fastce, a member shall not serve more than two terms. I should, however, have been ready to Rubinit Sir Shonson's name for re-appoint meni, had he not expressed a wishi, on account of age, not to seek re- appointment. Tripe wisdom, sage counsel and his consistent loyalty at oner to my predecemmoTA and myself, the Government the Colony, have been of inmenso yahu, and it is somewhat difficult to envisage this Commit without him,

The loss, however, is somewhat tempered by the fact that he still renanins a member of the Executive Council, having been re-appointed last July for a second period of five years. His advice and counsel will, therefore, 1 am glad to
