THE DUNCAN PLAN

REVIVED

BIG RECLAMATION AND NEW JETTIES

COSTLY PROJECT

GOVERNMENT'S ULTIMATE PLANS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF HUNGHOM BAY HAVE EMERGED AS A MATTER OF INTEREST IN VIEW OF THE COAL DUMP PROTEST AND THE SUG- GESTIONS FOR THE USE OF THE RAILWAY LAND FOR A BIG LIDO SCHEME.

Replying to the deputation which waited upon him yesterday, Mr. Tratman indicated that the area had been definitely ear-marked for port development.

It is interesting to note that the proposals have been before Government for nearly nine years, since in 1924 they were recommended for immediate construe- tion by Mr. John Duncan, the Port Engineer.

The scheme provides for about fifteen steamers berthing simultaneously and was estimated to cost, in 1924, over $14,000,000. Mr. Duncan regarded the pro- posals as linked with the construction of the remaining portion of the Canton-Hankow Railway, and with this project now under way, the Hunghom Bay scheme, shelved in 1925, may also be revived.
