For Revenue l'roducing. But our expenditure has gone up, quite apart from the higher standard the additional accoinmodation and afforded by the Tung Wah Eastern Hospital, and we want this ground to help us in providing revenue to meet our bills. And that is where the Government came in-another party to this successful co-operative system. H.E. the Governor recommended that the area should be used by the Tung Wah Hospital for revenue producing purposes. The Secretary of State approved without hesitation; and it was something of a relief to ace the old Irregularities so readily condoned and, indeed, now and wider privileges granted, in well-carned recognition of the work of both institutions.

Taking Stock.

The matter of watching our Ro- venue has beecine, in the circums tances of to-day, a more than usually important one, and I would like to refer to it rather more fully,

For years now the Tung Wah Hos- pital has been incurring largo addi- tional capital expense in the cause of Hongkong charity at all its three large hospitals; but with the cumple tion of the Tung Wah Eastern Hos- pital, which we hope Ilie Excellency the Governor will open to-morrow, the Committee can fairly say that they liave reached a stage where they should pause and take alock of their resources. All our developments mean extra annual expenditure-not only for extra patients, but, with the higher standards which general pro- Kress bas insisted upon, for each and every separate patient. I bellove the Chinese community has auch complote faith in the Tung Wah Committee that It will answer any call that the Com. mitteo decides make; but I won- der whether we cannot reduce those calls, and do it without in any way outraging the charitable instincts for which the Chinese people are so re- markable 7

Too Much Charity.

An obvious method, of course, in to concentrate for a time on our revenue and endowment. A good start has been made to-day, and I should like to see the rest of this site covered with buildings that will help us out atill further. But there is the more important and difficult question of the old Tang Wah Hospital Itself. Its life is nearly done, and reconstruction must very shortly be taken in hand; but the nature of the roconstruction is the problem. If you had twenty such free hospitals in the Colony you world no doubt be able to fill them. all but. I would ask the Committee. and the community to bardon Its charitable heart just a very little, and to ask whether we are not being ex- ploited to some degree. Are there not many patients in our hospitale who should not be there at all-who at the most should be out-patients number .of only? Are there not others who can well afford to pay?. And are there not ethors still who would be anxious to pay some small Lee-even 10 or 20-conta a day: less than the cont of a day's food-II the
