WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
In China, Standards of Weights, Measures and Length vary all over the
country. Generally speaking, two , kinds of standard are now in use, namely,
the old and the new. The old standard was forinulated from the Weights and
Measures liaw promulgated in 1914, establishing a. double system, the standard
metric unit and that based on Yinq i\ao I liih or “ Builder’s Fbdt ?> for length and ‘
Kuping tkel or Lw/nQ' for weight. The law governing the hew standard waA
promulgated by the National Government on February 6. 1929 and it is intended
to be the legal standard .of weights- and ,:gieasures acceptable throughout China.
For convenience sake and (Mstomary usage'it'also established a double system;
one is the standard metric unit and. the other, whichds temporary in .nature, and,
to be abolished as soon as the people are accustomed to l|he use of standard units,
is designed only for market use. However, the latter is derived from the former .
by taking ,one litre of Kung Shehg as one Shih Sheng whieh is nearest to the “
Chinese customary unit of capacity Sheng one, half kilogram as one Shih Chin
which is the average weight of the different varieties of “Chin” in different
localities; and one third of a meter or Rung Ch’ik as one Sk’ih Ch’ih which is the
average length of different varieties of Chinese “ Foot ” in different localities, thus
constituting the so-called 1-2-S-system of "Chinese weights and measures based on
IntetnationaTmetric standardi Such'a system, as devised by the Ministry"of'
Industry; Commerce and Labour aftff proclaimed by the National Goyei nrhent'to1
be put into force may also have great bbaring on the Users, of British “.Foot-Bound” ;
system -By taking the following approximate value : 1 quart equals to 1 litre,
1 pound equals to £ kilogram and 1 yard equals to 1 meter. The Russian and
Japanese system can also be thus varied accordingly s© as to fit themselves to the
International System. The following is a comparative table showing both the cld
and the new standards together with.ithe/r approximate foreign equivalent^.;— r

SUPPLEMENTARY COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH CHINA
Signed at Shanghai, 5th Septembek, 1902
Ratifications exchanged at Peking, 28th July, 1903
His Majesty the King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of
the British Dominions beyond the Seas, Emperor of India, and His Majesty the Em-
peror of China, having resolved to enter into negotiations with a view to carrying- out
the provisions contained in Article XI. of the Final Protocol signed at Peking on the
7th of September, 1901, under which the Chinese Government agreed to negotiate the
amendments deemed useful by the Foreign Governments to the Treaties of Commerce
and Navigation and other Subjects concerning commercial relations>ith the object of
facilitating them, have for that purpose named as their Plenipotentiaries, that is to
say:—
. His Majesty the King, of Great Britain and Ireland, His Majesty’s Special Com-
missioner, Sir James Lyle Mackay, Knight Commander of the Most Eminent Order of
the Indian Empire, a metpber of the Council of the Secretary of State for India, etc.
And His Majesty the EmperOr of China, the Imperial Commissioners Lii Hai-huan,
President of the Board of Public Works, etc., and Sheng Hsuan-huai, Junior Guardian
of the Heir Apparent, Senior Vice-President of the Board of Public Works, etc.
Who having communicated to each other their respective full powers, and
found them to be in good and due form, have agreed upon and concluded the
following Articles
Art. I.—Delay having occurred in the past in the issue of Drawback CertifDates
owing to the fact that those documents have to be dealt with by the Superintendent
of Customs at a distance from the Customs Office, it is now agreed that Drawback
Certificates shall hereafter in all cases be issued by the Imperial Maritime Customs
within three weeks of the presentation to the Customs of the papers entitling the
applicant to receive such Drawback Certificates.
These Certificates shall be valid tender to the Customs Authorities in payment
of any duty upon goods imported or exported (transit dues excepled), or shall, in the
case of Drawbacks on foreign goods re-exported abroad within three years from the
date of importation, be payable in cash without deduction by the Customs Bank at
the place where the import duty was paid.
But if, in connection with any application for a Drawback Certificate, the
Customs Authorities discover an attempt to defraud the revenue, the applicant shall
be liable to a fine not exceeding five times the amount of the duty whereof he
attempted to defraud the Customs, or to a confiscation of the goods.
Art. II.—China agrees to take the necessary steps to provide for a uniform
national coinage which shall be legal tender in payment of all duties, taxes and other
obligations throughout the Empire by British as well as Chinese subjects.
Art. III.—China agrees that the duties and lelcin combined levied on goods carried
by junks from Hongkong to the Treaty Ports in the Canton Province and vice versa
shall together not be less than the duties charged by the Imperial Maritime Customs
on similar goods, carried by steamer.
Art. IV.—Whereas questions have arisen in the past concerning the right of
Chinese subjects to invest money in non-Chinese enterprises and companies, and
whereas it is a matter of common knowledge that large sums of Chinese capital are
so invested, China hereby agrees to recognise the legality of all such investments past
present and future.
THE BRITISH COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH CHINA
It being, moreover, of the utmost importance that all shareholders in a Joint Stock
II ^Company should standbn a footing of perfect equality as far as .mutual obligations
are concerned,.China further agrees that Chinese subjects who ba,ve br ruav become
11 shareholders in any British Joint Stock Company shall be held to have accepted, by
j: 'the very act of becoming shareholders, the Charter of. Incorporation Or Memorandum
j and Articles of Association of such Company and regulations framed thereunder as
interpreted by British Courts, and that Chinese'Courts shallenforceCOmpliance there-
with by such Chinese shareholders, if a suit to that effect be entered, provided always
i that their liability shall not be other or greater than that of British shareholders in
I the same Company.
Similarly the British Government agree, that British subjects 'investing in
i1 Chinese Companies shall be under the same obligations as the Chinese .shareholders
in such companies.
1 The foregoing shall not apply to cases tvhich have already been before the Courts
and been dismissed.
Art. V.—The Chinese Government undertake to remove within the next two
years the artificial obstructions, to navigation in the Canton River. The Chinese
I Government also agree to improve the accommodation for shipping in the harbour of
f 'Canton and to take the necessary steps to maintain that improvement, such work to
< be carried out by. the Imperial Maritime Customs and the cost thereof to be defrayed
j by a tax on goods , landed and shipped 1by British and Chinese alike according to a
\ *cale to be arranged between the merchants' and the Customs Authorities.
The Chinese Government are'aware of the desirability of improving the naviga-
i bility by steamer of the waterway between Ichang and Chungking, but are also fully
[ aware that such improvement might involve heavy expense and would affect the
interests of the population of the provinces of Szechuen, Hunan, and Hupeh. It is,
therefore, mutually agreed that until, improvements can be curried out steamship
owners shall be allowed., subject to approval by the Imperial Maritime Customs, to
■erect, at their own expense, appliances, for hauling through the rapids. Such
appliances shall be at the disposal of all vessels, both steamers and junks, subject to
I regulations to he drawn up by the Imperial Maritime. Gnstoms. These appliances
| shall not obstruct the waterway or interfere with the free passage of junks. Signal
| stations and channel marks where and, when necessary shall be erected by the
Imperial Maritime Customs. Should any practical scheme be presented for improv-
? ing the waterway and assisting navigation without, injury to the local 'population or
l cost to the Chinese Government, it shall be considered by the latter in a friendly
1 spirit.
Art. VI.—The Chinese Government auree to make arrangements to give increased
? facilities at the open ports for bonding and for repacking merchandise in bond, and,
on official representation being made by the British Authorities, to grant the privi-
leges of a bonded warehouse to any warehouse which, to the satisfaction of the
Customs Authorities, affords the necessary security to the revenue.
Such warehouses will be subject to regulations, including a scale of fees according
to commodities, distance from Custom-house and hours of working, to be drawn up
by the Customs Authorities who will meet the convenience of merchants so far as is
| compatible with the protection of the revenue.
Art. VII.—Inasmuch as the British Government affords protection to Chinese
i trade marks against infringement, imitation, or colourable imitation by British
subjects, the Chinese Government undertake to afford protection to British trade
marks against infringement, imitation, or colourable imitation by Chinese subjects.
The Chinese Government further undertake that the Superintendents of Northern
and of Southern trade shall establish offices within their respective jurisdictions under
control of the Imperial Maritime Customs where foreign trade marks may he
registered on payment of a reasonable fee.
Art. VIII.—Preamble. The Chinese Government, recognising that the system
of levying lelcin and other dues on goods at the place of production, in transit, and at
6 THE BRITISH.COMMERCIAL TREATY. WITH CHINA
destination, impedes tlie free circulation of commodities and injures the interests of
trade, hereby undertake to discard completely these; means of raising, revenue with
the limitation mentioned in Section 8.
The British Government, in return, consent to allow a surtax, in excess of th&
Tariff rates for the time being in force, to, be imposed on foreign, goods' imported by
British subjects, and a surtax in addition to the export duty on Chinese produce'
destined for export abroad or coastwise.
It is clearly understood. that after teJc\n barriers. a,h,d, otliei; stations for taxing
goods in transit have been removed, no attempt shall be made to revive them in any
form or under any pretext whatsoever; that in no case shall the surtax on foreign
imports exceed the equivalent of one and a half times the import duty leviable in
terms of the Final Protocol,signed by China and the Powers on the 7th day of Sep-
tember, 1901; that payment ol the import duty and surtax sliall secpre for foreign
imports, whether in the hands of Chinese or non-Chinese subjects, in original packages
or otherwise, complete immunity from all other taxation, examination 6r delay ; that
the total amount of taxation leviable on native produce foe expovt abroad shall, under
no circumstances, exceed 7| per ad 'valorem:
Keeping these fundamental principles 'steadily in vibw1'; the high "coiltractihg
parties have agreed upon the following methods of procedure
Section 1.—The Chinese Government undertake that all barriers of whatsoever
kind, collecting lehin or such like dues or duties, shall be permanently abolished on all
roads, railways, and waterways in the Eighteen Provinces of China and the Three
Eastern Provinces. This provision does not apply to the Native Custom-houses' at
present in existence on the seaboard or waterways, at open ports,!rin land routbs, and
on land frontiers of China.
Section 2.—The British Government agree that foreign gdods' bh importation, in
addition to the effective 5 per cent, import duty as provided for1 in the Protocol of 1901,

pensate for the abolition of ZeZa’n, of transit dues in lieu of lekin, and of all other
taxation on foreign goods, and in consideration of the other reforYns .provided for in
this Article; but this provision shall pot impair the right of Chiftado tax salt, native
opium and native produce as provided for in Sections 8, 5, 6 and 8.
The same amount of surtax shall be levied on goods imported into the Eighteen
Provinces of China arid the Three Eastern Provinces acrbSs'the land frontiers as on
goods entering China by sea.
Sectioii 8.—All Native Custom-hbuses now existing, whether at the Open Ports,
on the seaboard, on rivers, inland waterways, land routes br larid frontiers, as
enumerated in the Hu Pu and Kung Pu Tse Li (.Regulations of the Boards of Revenue

British Government, so that the list may be' cbrreked'; the originally r •stated number
of them shall not, however, be exceeded. '
Goods carried by junks or sailing-vessels trading to or f rom open ports shall not
pay lower duties than the coiribimed duties and surtax on similar cai’go carried by

Section 4.—Foreign opium duty and present leTcin—which latter will now. become
a surtax in lieu of feArn—shall remain as provided for by existing Treaties.
Section. J).—-The British (government.haveno intention whatevef;:of interfering
with China’s right to tax; native opium, but it is essential to; declare that jin her

China is free to retain at important points oil the borders of each province—either
on land or water—offices for collecting.duty on native opium, where duties or contribu-
tions leviable shall be paidin one lump sum ; which payment shall cover taxation of all
kinds within that province. Bach cake of opium will have a stamp affixed as evidence
of dutyjpayment. Excise officers and police may: be employed in connection with these
offices ; bat no, barriersi or other obstructions, are to be erected, and the excise officers
or police of these offices shall not stop or; mplest any, other kinds of goods, or collect
taxes thereon, ■
A list of these offices shall be drawn;up and communicated to the British Govern-
ment for record.
Section 6.—Lekin on salt, is hereby abolished and the amount of said lekin and of
other taxes and contributions shall be added to the salt duty, which shall be '.collected
at place of production or at first station after entering the province where it is to be
consumed.
The .Chinese Government shall be at liberty to. establish salt reporting offices at
which boats conveying salt which is being moved under salt passes'or certificates may
be required to stop for purposes of examination and to have their certificates vised,
but at such offices no lekin or transit taxation shall be levied and nb barriers or
-obstructions of any kind shall •be erfected.
Section 7.—The Chinese Government may re-cast the Export Tariff with specific
duties US far as practicable on a,scale hot exceeding; five per cent, ad valorem-, but
existing export duties shall not be raised until at least six months’ notice has been
■given.
In cases where existing export duties are above five per cent, they shall be
.reduced to not more than that rate.
An additional special surtax of one, half-i the export duty payable for the time
being, in lieu of internal taxation and lekin, may be levied at time of export on goods
exported either-to foreign countries or coastwise.
In the case of silk, whether hand or filature reeled, the total export duty shall not
exceed a specific rate equivalent to not more than five per cent, ad valorem. Half of
this specific duty may he levied at; the first Native Custom-house in the interior which
the silk may pass and in such case a certificate shall be given as provided for in Section
3, and will be accepted by the Custom-house concerned at place of export in lieu of
balf the export duty. Cocoons passing Native-Custom-houses shall be liable to no
-taxation whatever. Silk not exported but consumed in China is liable to tbe Con-
sumption Tax mentioned in. Section, 8;.. ■ v
Section 8,—The abolition of the lekin system in China and the abandonment of all
other kinds of internal taxation on foreign imports and on exports will diminish the
tevenue materially. The surtax’on foreign, imports and exports and on coastwise
-exports is intended to compensate in a measure for this loss of revenue, but there
THE BRITISH COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH CHINA
remains the loss of lehin revenue on internal trade to be met, audit is therefore agreed
that the Chinese Government are at liberty to impose a Consumption Tax on articles-
of Chinese origin not intended for export.
This tax shall be levied only at places of consumption and not on goods while in
transit, and the Chinese Government solemnly undertake that the arrangements which
they may make for its collection shall in no way interfere with foreign goods or with
native goods for expoi*t. The fact of goods being of foreign origin shall of itself free*
them from all taxation, delay, or stoppage, after having passed the Custom-house.
Foreign goods which bear a similarity to native goods shall be furnished by the-
Custom-house, if required by the owner, with a protective certificate for each package,
on payment of import duty and surtax, to prevent the risk of any dispute in the*
interior.
Native goods brought by junks to open ports, if intended for local consumption—
irrespective of the nationality of the owner of the goods—shall be reported at the
Native Custom-house only, where the consumption tax may be levied.
China is at liberty to fix the amount of this (consumption) tax, which may vary
according to the nature of the merchandise concerned, that is to say, according as the
articles are necessaries of life or luxuries; but it shall be levied at a uniform rate on
goods of the same description, no matter whether carried by junk, sailing-vessel, or
steamer. As mentioned in Section 8, the Consumption Tax is not to be levied within
foreign settlements or concessions.
Section 9.—An excise equivalent to double the import duty as laid down in the
Protocol of 1901 is to be charged on all machine-made yarn and cloth manufactured in
China, whether by foreigners at the open ports or by Chinese anywhere in China.
A rebate of the import duty and two-thirds of the import surtax is to be given
on raw cotton imported from foreign countries, and of all duties, including Consump-
tion Tax, paid on Chinese raw cotton used in mills in China.
Chinese machine-made yarn or cloth having paid excise is to be free of Export
Duty, Export Surtax, Coast Trade Duty, and Consumption Tax. This Excise is to be
collected through the Imperial Maritime Customs.
The same principle and procedure are to be applied to all other products of foreign
type turned out by machinery, whether by foreigners at the open ports or by
Chinese anywhere in China.
This stipulation is not to apply to the out-turn of the Hanyang and Ta Yeh Iron
Works in Hupeh and other similar existing Government Works at present exempt from
taxation; or to that of Arsenals, Government Dockyards, or establishments of that
nature for Government purposes which may hereafter be erected.
Section 10.—A member or members of the Imperial Maritime Customs Foreign
Staff shall be selected by each of the Governors-General and Governors, and appointed,
in consultation with the Inspector-General of Imperial Maritime Customs, to each pro-
vince for duty in connection with Native Customs affairs, Consumption Tax, Salt and
Native Opium Taxes. These officers shall exercise an efficient supervision of the work-
ing of these departments, and in the event of their reporting any case of abuse, illegal
exaction, obstruction to the movement of goods, or other cause of complaint, the
Governor-General or Governor concerned will take immediate steps to put an end to
same.
Section 11.—Cases where illegal action as described in this Article is complained of
shall be promptly investigated by an officer of the Chinese Government of sufficiently
high rank, in conjunction with a British officer and an officer of the Imperial Maritime
Customs, each of sufficient standing; and in the event of its being found by a majority
of the investigating officers that the complaint is well founded and loss has been
incurred, due compensation is to be at once paid from the Surtax funds, through the
Imperial Maritime Customs at the nearest open port. The High Provincial Officials
are to be held responsible that the officer guilty of the illegal action shall be severely
punished and removed from his post.
If the complaint turns out to be without foundation, complainant shall be held
responsible for the expenses of the investigation.
THE BEITISH COMMEKCIAL TREATY WITH CHINA
His Britannic Majesty’s Minister will have the right to demand investigation
■where from the evidence before him he is satisfied that illegal exactions or obstructions
ihave occurred.
Section 12.—The Chinese Government agree to open to foreign trade, on the same
footing as the places opened to foreign trade by the Treaties of Nanking and Tientsin,
the following places, namely:—
Changsha in Hunan;
Wanhsien in Szechuen;
Nganking in Anhui;
Waichow (Hui-chow) in Kwangtung; and

Regulations on the same footing as Chinese residents, and they are not to be entitled
to establish Municipalities and Police of their own within the limits of these Treaty
Ports except with the consent of the Chinese authorities.

granting by China of ahy political concession, or of any exclusive coinnaefcial concession.
Section 15.—Should the Powers entitled to most favoured nation treatment by
China have failed to agree to enter into the engagements undertaken by Great Britain
under this Article by the 1st January, 1904, then the provisions of the Article shall
only cpme into force when all, the Powers have signified their acceptance of these
•engagements.
Section 16.—When the abolition of lekin and other forms of internal taxation on
goods as provided for in this Article has been decided upon and sanctioned, an Imperial
Edict shall be published in due form on yellow paper and circulated, setting forth the
abolition of all iekin taxation, lekin barriers and all descriptions of internal taxation on
goods, except as provided for in this Article.
The Edict shall state that the Provincial High Officials are responsible that any
official disregarding the letter .or spirit of its injunction shall be severely punished and
removed from his post.
Art. IX.—The Chinese Government, recognising that it is advantageous for the
country to develop its mineral resources, and that it is desirable to attract Foreign as
well as Chinese capital to embark in mining enterprises, agree withiu one year frorn the

•question of Mining Rules and, selecting from the rules of Great Britain, India, and
other countries, regulations which seem applicable to the condition of China, she will
re-cast her present Mining Rules in such a way as while promoting, the interests of

12 THE BRITISH COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH CHINA
Shanghai: E. H. XXVTIL, 7th moon, 11th day
(Received August 15, 1902;
We have the honour to inform you that we have received the following telegram
from His Excellency Liu, Governor General of the Liang Ohiang, on the subject of
Clause II. mutually agreed upon by us:
“ As regards this clause, it is necessary to insert therein a clear stipulation, to the
“ effect that, no matter what changes may take place in the future, all Customs’ duties
“ must continue to be calculated on the basis of the existing higher rate of the Haikwan
“ Tael over the Treasury Tael, and that ‘ the touch ’ and weight of the former must be
“ made good.”
As we have already arranged with you that a declaration of this kind should be
embodied in an Official Note, and form an annex to the present Treaty, for purposes of
record, we hereby do ourselves the honour to make this communication.
Annex A—(2)
Gentlemen, Shanghai, August 18th, 1902.
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch of the 14th instant
forwarding copy of a telegram from His Excellency Liu, Governor-General of the
Liang Chiang, on the subject of Article II. of the new Treaty, and in reply I have the
honour to state that His Excellency’s understanding of the Article is perfectly correct.
I presume the Chinese Government will make arrangements for the coinage of a
national silver coin of such weight and touch as may be decided upon by them.
These coins will be made available to the public in return for a quantity of silver
bullion of equivalent weight and fineness plus the usual mintage charge.
The coins which will become the national coinage of China will be declared by
the Chinese Government to be legal tender in payment of Customs duty and in
discharge of obligations contracted in Haikwan taels, but only at their proportionate
value to the Haikwan tael, whatever that may be.
I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,

with the Governors-General of the Liang Chiang and the Hu-kuang Provinces, Their
Excellencies Liu and Chang, addressed the following telegraphic Memorial to the
Throne
“ Of the revenue of the different Provinces derived from lekin of all kinds, a
“ portion is appropriated for the service of the foreign loans, a portion for the Peking
““ Government,
concerned. and the balance is reserved for the local expenditure of the Provinces
THE BRITISH COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH CHINA li
“ In the negotiations now being conducted with Great Britain for the amendment
“ of the Commercial Treaties, a mutual arrangement has been come to providing for
“the imposition of additional taxes, in compensation for the abolition of all kinds of
“ leJcin and other imposts on goods, prohibited by Article VIII. After payment of
“interest and sinking fund on the existing foreign loan, to the extent to which.
“is thereto pledged, these additional taxes shall be allocated to the various Provinces
“to make up deficiencies and replace i-evenue, in order that no hardships may be
“ entailed on them. With a view to preserving the original intention underlying the
“ proposal to increase the duties in compensation for the loss of revenue derived from
“ lekin and other imposts on goods, it is further stipulated that the surtaxes shall not
“ be appropriated for other purposes, shall not form part of the Imperial Maritime
“ Customs revenue proper, and shall in no case be pledged as security for any new
“ foreign loan..
“It is therefore necessary to memorialize for the issue of an Edict, giving effect
“ to the above stipulations and directing the Board of Bevenue to find out what
“proportion of the provincial revenues derived from lekin of all kinds, now about
“ to be abolished, each Province has hitherto had to remit, and what proportion it
“ has been entitled to retain, so that, when the Article comes into operation, due
“apportionment may be made accordingly, thus providing the Provinces with funds
“available for local expenditure and displaying equitable and just treatment towards
“all.”
On the 1st instant an Imperial Decree “ Let action, as requested, be taken,”
was issuecl, and we now do ourselves the honour reverently to transcribe the same
for your information.
Annex B—(2)
Shanghai, September 5th, 1902.
Gentlemen,
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch of the 2nd instant
forwarding the text of the Memorial and Decree dealing with the disposal of the
surtaxes.
I understand that the surtaxes in addition to not being pledged for any new
foreign loan are not to be pledged to, or held to be security for, liabilities already
contracted by China except in so far as lekin revenue has already been pledged to an
existing loan.
I also understand from the Memorial that the whole of the surtaxes provided by
Article Till, of the New Treaty goes to the Provinces in proportions to be agreed
upon between them and the Board of Bevenue, but that out of these surtaxes each
Province is obliged to remit to Peking the same contribution as that which it has
hitherto remitted out of its collections, and that the Provinces also provide as
hitherto out of these surtaxes whatever funds may be necessary for the service of the
foreign loan to which lekin is partly pledged..
I hope Your Excellencies will send me a reply to this despatch and that you will
agree to this correspondence forming part of the Treaty as an Annex.
I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
YoUr obedient Servant,
(Sighed) Jas. L. Mack ay.

Imperial Chinese Commissioners for dealing with questions connected with the

Shanghai, September 5th, 1902.
We have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of to-day’s
date with regard ti) the allocation of the surtax funds allotted to the Provinces, and to
inform you thatr the views therein expressed are the same as our own.
We would, however, wish to point out that, were the whole ambuht of the alloca-
tion due paid over 1to the Provinces, unnecessary expense would be incurred in the
retransmission by them ■ of such portions thereof as would haveto be remitted to
Peking in place of the contributions hitherto payable out of lehin revenue. The
amount, therefore, of the allocation due to the Provinces, arranged between them and
the Board of Revenue, will be retained in the hands of the Maritime Customs, who
will await, the instructions of the Provinces in regard to the remittance of such
portioq thereof as rqay be necessary to fulfil their obligations, and .(on receipt of
these instructions) will send forward the amount direct. The balance will be held
to the order of the Provinces.
In so far as lehin is pledged to the service of the 1898 loan, a similar method of
procedure will be adopted.
As you request that this correspondence' be annexed to the Treaty, we have the
honour to state that we see no objection to this being done.
Annex C
INRAIfD WATERS STEAM NAVIGATION
Additional Rules
1. —British steamship owners are at liberty to lease warehou
banks of waterways frou; Chinese subjeels for a term not exceeding 25 years, with
option of renewal on ftefms • to be mutually arranged. In cases where British mer-
chants are unable to secure warehouses and jetties from Chinese subjects on satis-
factory terms, the local officials, after consultation with the Minister of Commerce,
shall arrange, to provide these on renewable lease as above mentioned at current
equitable rates.
2. —Jetties shall only be erected in such positions that they
inland waterway or interfere with navigation, and with the sanction of the nearest
Commissioner Of Customs ; such sanction, however, shall not be arbitrarily withheld.
3. —British merchants shall pay taxes and contributions on t
jetties on the same footing as Chinese proprietors of similar properties in the neigh-
bourhood. British merchants may only employ Chinese agents and staff to reside in
warehouses so leased at places touched at by steamers engaged in inland traffic to
carry on their business but British merchants may visit these places from time to
time to look, after their affairs. The existing rights of Chinese jurisdiction over
Chinese subjects shall not by reason of this clause be diminished or interfered with
in any way.
4. —Steam vessels navigating the inland waterways of China
for loss caused to riparian proprietors by damage which they may do to the banks
THE BEITISH COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH CHINA 15
or works on them and for the loss which may be caused by such damage. In the
event of China desiring to prohibit the use of some particular shallow waterway by
launches, because there is reason to fear that the use of it by them would be likely
to injure the banks and cause damage to the adjoining country, the British
authorities,, -*yhen appealed tQ^ tshall, if satisfied of the .validity of the pbjectipn,
prohibit-the u«e of that waterway by British launches, provided" that Chinese
launches are also prohibited from using it.
Both Poreigman^jChineselaiinchfes .are prOhibitedjfyptri crossingidajns and weirs
at present in existence on inland waterways where they are likely to cause injury to
such works, which would be detrimental to the water service of the local people.
5. —The main object of the BritishT Government in desiring to
•waterways of China opened to steam navigation being to afford facilities for the rapid
transport of both foreign and native merchandise, they, undertake to offer no impedi-
ment to the transfer to a Chinese company and the Chinese flag of any British
steamer which may now or hereafter be employed on the inland waters of China
should.the owner be* willing to make the transfer.
In event of a Chinese company registered under Chinese law being formed to run
steamers on the inland waters of China the fact of British Subjects holding shares in
such a company shall not entitle the steamers to fly the British flag.
6. —Registered steamers and their tows, are forbidden, just as jun
been forbidden, to carry contraband goods. Infraction of this rule will entail the
penalties prescribed in the Treaties for such an offence, and cancellation of the Inland
Waters Navigation Certificate carried by the vessels, which will be prohibited from
thereafter plying on inland waters.
7. —As it is desirable that the people living inland should be dist
as possible by the advent of steam vessels to which they are not accustomed, inland
waters not hitherto frequented by steamers shall be opened as gradually as may be
convenient to merchants and only as the owners Of steamers may see prospects of
remunerative trade.
In cases where it is intended to run steam vessels on waterways on which such
vessels have not hitherto run, intimation shall be made to the Commissioner of
Customs at the nearest open port who shall report the matter to the Ministers of
Commerce. The latter, in conjunction with the Governor-General or Governor of
the Province, after careful consideration of all the cifcumstah!ees: of the case, shall at
once give their approval.
8. —A registered steamer may ply within the waters of a port, or
port or ports to another open port or ports, or from one open port or ports of
places inland, and thence back to such port or ports. She may, on making due
report to the Customs, land or ship passengers or cargo at any recognised places of
trade passed in the course of the voyage; but may not ply between: inland places
exclusively except with the consent of the Chinese Government.
9. —Any cargo and passenger boats may be towed by steamers.
and crew of any boat towed shall be Chinese. All boats, irrespective, of ownership,
must be registered before they can proceed inland.
10. —These Rules are supplementary to the Inland Steam Navig
of July and September, 1898. The latter, where untouched by the present Rules,
remain in full force and effect; but the present Rules hold in the case of such of the
former Regulations as the present Rules affect. The present Rules, and the
Regulations of July and September, 1898, to. which thev are supplementary, are
provisional and may be modified, as circumstances require, by mutual consent.
Done at Shanghai this fifth day of September, in the year of Our Lord, 1902,
corresponding with the Chinese date, the fourth day >of the eighth moon of the
twenty-eighth year of Kwang Hsu.

WASHINGTON CONFERENCE RESOLUTIONS
THE QUADRUPLE ALLIANCE
OFFICIAL TEXT
At the fourth plenary session of the Conference on Limitation of Armaments
held on December 10th, 1921, Senator Lodge made public the following draft of a
treaty and accompanying reservations:—
The United States of America, the British Empire, France and Japan, with
a view to tKe preservation of the general peace and the maintenance of their
rights in relation to their insular possessions and insular dominions in the
regions of the Pacific Ocean, have determined to conclude a treaty to this effect
and have appointed as their plenipotentiaries :—
The President of the United States
His Majesty the King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Ireland, and of the British Dominions beyond the seas, Emperor of
India
And
For the Dominion of Canada
For the Commonwealth of Australia
For the Dominion of New Zealand
For India
The President of the French Kepublic——-
His Majesty the Emperor of Japan
Who, having communicated their full powers found in good and due form, have
agreed as follows
Aeticle I.—The high contracting parties agree as between themselves to
respect their rights in relation to their insular possessions and insular dominions in
the region of the Pacific Ocean. If there should develop between any of the
high contracting parties a controversy arising out of any Pacific question and
involving their said rights, which is not satisfactorily settled by diplomacy and is
likely to affect the harmonious accord now happily subsisting between them, they
shall invite the other high contracting parties to a joint conference to which the
whole subject will be referred for consideration and adjustment.
Article II.—If the said rights are threatened by the aggressive action of any
other Power, the high contracting parties shall communicate with one another
fully and frankly in order to arrive at an understanding as to the most efficient
measures to be jointly or separately taken to meet the particular situation.
Article III.—‘This Agreement shall remain in force for ten years from the
time it shall take effect, and after the expiration of said period it shall continue to
be in force subject to the right of any of the high contracting parties to terminate
it upon twelve months’ notice.
Article IY.—This Agreement shall be ratified as soon as possible in accord-
ance with the constitutional methods of the high contracting parties and shall
take effect on the deposit of ratifications, which shall take place at Washington,
and thereupon the Agreement between Great Britain and Japan which was con-
cluded at London on July 13th, 1911, shall terminate.
Reservations.—The signing of this Treaty is on the part of the United States
subject to (reservations affecting) the island of Yap and what are termed the
Mandate Islands in the Pacific Ocean, north of the Equator, the negotiations in
regard to which are almost concluded, and also the reservations with respect to
what are termed the Mandate Islands in the Pacific Ocean south of the Equator.
*o
36 WASHINGTON CONFERENCE RESOLUTIONS
tt should also be observed that the controversies to which the proposed Treaty refers
do not include questions which, according to the principles of international law,
lie exclusively within the domestic jurisdietipn Of the respective Powers.
In the course of his address, Senator Lodge stated : “ To put it in a few words
the Treaty provides that the four signatory Powers will agree between themselves
in regard to their insular possessions and dominions in the region of the Pacific,
and that if any controversy should arise, as .to such rights aU the high contracting
parties shall be invited'to a joint conference looking, to the adjustment of such
controversy. Thev agree to take similar action in the chse of aggression by any
other Power upon these insular possessions dr dominions; This Agreethent is to
remain in force for ten years, and, after ratification under tthe constitutional
methods of the high contracting parties, the existing agreement between Great
Britain and Japan, which was concluded at London on July 13, 1911, shall
terminate. Each signer is bound to respect the rights of the others, and before
taking action in any controversy to cOnsult with thbtn. There is no provision for
the use of force to carry out any of the terms of the Agreement, and no military or
naval stations lurk anywhere in the background hr1 under cover of these plain and
direct clauses. The surest way to prevent war is to remove the cause of war.
This is an attempt to remove the cause of war over a great area of the globe’s
surface by reliance upon the good faith and honest intentions of the nations which
signed this Treaty solving all differences through a process of diplomacy and joint
consideration and conciliation. : ^
TERRITORIAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE INTEGRITY OE CRINA
The Far Eastern Committee of the Conference unanimously adopted a resolu-
tion declaring in favour-of the territorial and administrative integrity Of China.
The resolution, which was drafted and-presented by Senator Root, was signed by
eight Powers, Chiba refraining from appending her signature as - being unfitting
in a document regarding herself.
Following-is the text of the resolution:—-“It is the firm intention of the
Powers attending the Conference, firstly, to respect the sovereignty, independence
and territorial and administrative integrity of China ; secondly, to provide the fullest,
unembarrassed opportunity for China to develop and tO maintain an effective and
stable Government; thirdly, to use their influence for the purpose of effectively
establishing and maintaining the principle of equal opportunity for commerce and
industry to all nations throughout Chinese territory; fourthly, to refrain from taking
advantage of present conditions in order to seek special rights ahd privileges
abridging the rights of subjects of friendly States, and also to refrain from
countenancing any action inimical to the. security of such States.”
The Far Eastern Committee passed a resolution, suggested by Sir Auckland
Geddes, under which the Powers attending the Conference declared their inten-
tion “ not to enter into any treaty; agreement, arrangement, or understanding with
one another, or individually or collectively with any Power or Powers, which
infringes or impairs the principles declared by the resolution adopted by the Com-
mittee on the 21st ult.” (i.e., Senator Root’s resolution declaring for the terri orial
and administrative integrity of China).

FOREIGN POST OFFICES IN CHINA
Representatives of the nine Powers sitting as a Committee on the Pacific and
Far Eastern questions adopted a resolution in favour of the relinquishment of
Toreign post-office privileges in China. All the Powers agreed upon January Ist,l 923,
As the date of relinquishment. - -
The text of the resolution is:— “ Recognising the justice of the desire expressed
by the Chinese Government to secure the abolition of foreign postal agencies in
China, save or except in leased territories Or otherwise specifically provided for by
freaty, it is resolved:
“I:—That the four Powers having such postal agencies agree to their
abandonment, subject to -the following conditions : Fifst,’ that rah efficient Chinese
postal service‘ be maintained - second; that'ah assurance be given by the Chinese
Government that they contemplate no change in tins present postal administration
as far as the status of the foreign Co-DirectOr-General is concerned.
‘MI :—To enable China and the, Potveia cohcefned to make the necessary
dispositions this arrangement shall cdine into fotce not later than (date blank).
Pending the complete withdrawal of foreign postal agencies the four Powers concerned
severally undertake to afford full facilities to the Chinese Customs authorities to
•examine all postal matter (except ordinary letters,'whet’her’registered op not, which
upon external examination appear to contain written matter) passing through with a
view to ascertaining whether they contain articles of dutiable contraband or other-
wise contravening the Customs regulations and laws of China.”
EXTRA-TERRITORIAL RIGHTS IN CHINA
A resolution was unanimously adopted by the Far Eastern Committee relative to
the Extra-Territorial Question, ft provides that the Powers concerned shall establish
a Commission, to which each shall appoint a member, to enquire into the present
practice of extra-territorial jurisdiction in China, and into the laws, the judicial system
and methods of judicial administration, with a view to reporting findings of fact, with
recommendations regarding the means to improve the existing conditions of adminis-
tration o‘f justice in China and to assist the efforts of the Chinese Government to
effect such legislation and judicial reforms as will warrant the Powers in relinquishing
progressively or otherwise their rights of extra-territoriality..
The Commission shall be constituted within three months after the adjournment
of the Conference, and be instructed to submit its report and recommendat ions within
a year after the Commission’s first meeting. Each of the Powers shall be deemed free
to accept or reject all or any portion of the recommendations, but in no case are any
•of the Powers to make acceptance directly or indirectly dependent on China’s granting
any special concession, favour, benefit, or immunity, whether political or economic,.
An additional resolution provides that non-signatory Powers having extra-terri-
torial rights in China may accede to the'resolution in regard to extra-territoriality
within three months after the adjournment of the Conference.
A further additional resolution expresses China’s satisfaction with the sympathy
-of the Powers in regard to the abolition of extra-terfitoriality, and declares China’s
intention to appoint a Chinese member of the E xtra-Territoriality Commission, it
being understood that China is free to accept or reject any or all of the recommenda-
tions of the Commission. China is prepared to co-operate in the work of the
-Commission and in every way to, facilitate the successful accomplishment of its task.
38 WASHINGTON CONFERENCE RESOLUTIONS
RADIO STATIONS IN CHINA
A report was submitted by the Sub-Committee on Drafting relating to radio'
stations for China which states that representatives of the nine Powers at the
Conference decided that all radio stations in China, whether maintained under the
provisions of the International Protocol of September, 1901, or, in fact maintained
on the grounds of any of the foreign Legations in China, shall be limited in use to
sending and receiving Clovernment messages and shall not receive or send commercial,
personal, or unofficial messages, including Press matter.
It is provided, however, that in case all other telegraphic communication is inter-
rupted, then, upon official notification, accompanied by proof of such interruption, to
the Chinese Ministry of Communications such stations may afford temporary facilities-
for messages excluded as before-mentioned until the Chinese Government notify the
termination of the interruption.
All radio stations on Chinese territory operated by foreign Governments’ sub-
jects under treaties or concessions shall limit the messages sent or received by the
terms of the treaty or concession under which the respective stations are maintained.
Any radio station maintained without .the authority of the Chinese Government shall
be transferred to China to be operated under the direction of the Chinese Ministry of
Communications, against compensation to the owners for the value of the installation,
as soon as the Ministry is prepared to operate the same effectively for general public
benefit. Should any question arise regarding radio stations in leased territories,
the South Manchuria railway zone, or the French Concession in Shanghai they
shall be regarded as matters for discussion between the Chinese Government and the
Governments concerned. Owners or managers of all foreign radio stations shall
confer with the Chinese Ministry of Communications for the purpose of seeking a
common arrangement to avoid interference in the use of wave lengths by wireless
stations in China, subject to such a general arrangement as may be made by the
International Conference convened for revision of the rules established by the
London International Radio Telegraph Convention of 1912.

TREATY BETWEEN GREAT BRITAIN AND SIAM
Annex 3
Mr. Puget to Prince Devawongse
M. le Ministre, March 10, 1909.
In view of the position of British possessions in the Malay Peninsula and of the
contiguity of the Siamese Malay provinces with British-protected territory, His
Majesty’s Government aye desirous of receiving an assurance that the Siamese-
Government will not permit any danger to arise to British interests through the use-
of any portion of the Siamese dominions in the peninsula for military or naval
purposes by foreign Powers.
His Majesty’s Government would therefore request that the Siamese Govern-
ment shall not cede or lease, directly or indirectly, to any foreign Government any
territory situated in the Malay Peninsula south of the southern boundary of the-
Monthon Rajaburi, or in any of the islands adjacent to the said territory; also that
within the limits above mentioned a right to establish or lease any coaling station, to-
build or own any construction or repairing docks, or to occupy exclusively any harbours,
the occupation of which would be likely to be prejudicial to British interests from a
strategic point of view, shall not be granted to any foreign Government or Company.
Since this assurance is desired as a matter of political expediency only, the
phrase “coaling station” would not be held to include such small deposits of coal as
may be required for the purposes of the ordinary shipping engaged in the Malay
Peninsula coasting trade.
Prince Devawongse to Mr. Paget
M. le Ministre, Foreign Office, Bangkok, March 10, 1909.
I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your note of this date, in which
you express the desire of your Government that the Siamese Government shall not
cede or lease, directly or indirectly, to any foreign Government any territory situated
in the Malay Peninsula south of the southern boundary of the Monthon Rajaburi
or in any of the islands adjacent to the said territory; also that withiu the limits-
above-mentioned a right to establish or lease any coaling station, to build or own anjr
construction or repairing docks, or to occupy exclusively any harbours, the occupation
of which would be likely to be prejudicial to British interests from a strategic point
of view, shall not be granted to any foreign Government or company.
In reply, I beg to say that the Siamese Government gives its assurance to the
above effect, taking note that the phrase “coaling station” shall not include such
small deposits of coal as may be required for the purposes of the ordinary shipping-
engaged in the Malay Peninsula coasting trade.
(Signed) Devawongse Varoprakar.
Prince Devawongse to Mr. Paget
M. le Ministre, Foreign Office, Bangkok, March 10, 1909.
With reference to the provision contained in Article IY. of the Jurisdiction
Protocol to the effect that in all cases in which a British subject is defendant or
accused a European adviser shall sit in Court, I would express the hope, on behalf of
His Majesty’s Government, that His Britannic Majesty’s Government will be prepared
in due course to consider the question of a modification of or release from this
guarantee when it shall be no longer needed; and, moreover, that in any negotiations-
in connection with such a modification or release the matter may be treated upon its
merits alone, and not as a consideration for which some other return should be expected.
The Siamese Government appreciates that a Treaty like the one signed to-day
marks an advance in the administration of justice in the kingdom. The conclusion
of such a Treaty is in itself a sign of progress. It is the intention of the Siamese
Government to maintain the high standard in the administration of justice which it
has set before it, and towards which it has been working for some time.
In this connection I take pleasure in acknowledging the contribution which Mr..
J. Stewart Black has made to this work.
TREATY BETWEEN UNITED KINGDOM AND SIAM 51
I wish also to say that provision will be made for the treatment of European
prisoners according to the standard usual for such prisoners in Burmah and the
Straits Settlements.
(Signed) Devawongse Varopkakab.
Mr. Paget to Prince Devawongse
M. le Ministre, March 10, 1909.
With reference to the guarantee contained in the first paragraph of Article IV. of
the Jurisdiction Protocol, I have the honour to state that His Majesty’s Government
will be prepared in due course to consider the question of modification of or release
from this guarantee when it shall no longer be needed. His Majesty’s Government
are also willing that in any negotiations in connection with such a modification or
release the matter shall be treated upon its merits alone, and not as a consideration
for which some other return shall be expected.
His Majesty’s Government learn with much satisfaction that it is the intention
of the Siamese Government to maintain the high standard in the administration of
justice which it has set before it, and towards which it has been working for some
time; and I may assure your lioyal Highness that it will be the aim of His Majesty’s
Government in every manner to second the efforts of His Siamese Majesty’s Govern-
ment in this direction.
I wish also to say that the International Courts referred to in Section 1 of the
Protocol on Jurisdiction annexed to the Treaty signed to-day need not necessarily be
Courts specially organized for this purpose. Provincial (“Monthon”) Courts or
District (“ Muang”) Courts may constitute International Courts, according as British
subjects may be established in greater or less number within the jurisdiction of those
Courts. The fact that an ordinary Court is designated as an International Court will
have as a consequence the introduction into that ordinary Court of all the provisions
relating to International Courts secured by the Protocol on Jurisdiction.

“The Nationalist Government, with a view to adapting themselves to the
present day circumstances and with the object of promoting the welfare of
and the friendly relations between 'China and different countries, have always-
considered the abrogation of all the unequal Treaties and the conclusion of
new Treaties on the basis of equality and mutual respect for territorial
sovereignty as the most pressing problem at the present time. These aims have
been embodied in declarations repeatedly made by the Nationalist Government.
“Now that the unification of China is an accomplished fact, it is the task
of the Nationalist Government to make every effort to fully realize these aims.
While they will continue to afford protection to foreign lives and property in
China, according to law, the Nationalist Government hereby make the follow-
ing specific declaration with regard to all the unequal Treaties:
“(1) All the unequal Treaties between the Republic of , China and other
countries, which have already expired, shall be ipso facto abrogated, and new
Treaties shall be concluded.
“(2) The Nationalist Government will immediately take steps to terminate^
in accordance with proper procedure, those unequal Treaties which have not
yet expired, and conclude new Treaties.
“(3) In the case of old Treaties which have already expired, but which
have not yet been replaced by new Treaties, the Nationalist Government will
promulgate appropriate interim regulations to meet the exigencies of such,
situation.”
Interim Regulations.
At the same time the Nationalist Government issued the following Pro-
visional Regulations Governing the Relations between China and the Powers*
after the Abrogation of the Old Treaties and pending the Conclusion of New
Treaties: —
“1 Foreign countries and foreigners, as designated in these Regulations,

with China have already expired, and with whom new Treaties have not jet
been concluded.
“2 AH diplomatic officials and consular officials of foreign countries sta-
tioned in China shall be entitled to proper treatment accorded under inter-
national law.
“3. The persons and properties of foreigners in China shall receive due
protection under Chinese, Law.
“4. Foreigners in China shall be subject to the regulations of Chinese Law
and the jurisdiction of Chinese Law Courts.

of China.”

THE A NT f-WAR TREATY (KELLOGG PACT).
1.—UNITED STATES, INVITATION TO CHINA.
Legation of the United States of America
Excellency: .' f< Peking,. August 27, 1928.
I have the honour to inform you that the Governments of Germany, the
United States of America, Belgium, France, Great Britain, Canada, Australia,
New Zealand, South Africa, The Irish Free State, India, Italy, Japan, Poland,
and Czecho-SIovakia have this day signed in Paris a treaty binding’ them to
renounce
another andwartoasseek
an only
instrument of national
by pacific means thepolicy m theirof relations
settlement withof one
or solution al!
disputes which may arise among them.
This treaty, as Your Excellency is aware, is the outcome of negotiations
which commenced on June, 29,, Z927, when M. Briand,. Minister for Foreign
ofAffairs of thefriendship
perpetual French Republic,
between submitted
France andto my
the Government
United States.a draft of acourse
In the pact
of the subsequent riegotiations this idea was extended so as to include as
•original signatories of the anti-war treaty not only France and the United
KELLOGG PACT 133
^States but also Japan, the British Empire and all the Governments which
participated with France and Great Britain in the Locarno agreements, namely,
Belgium, Czecho-Blovakia, Germany, Italy, and Poland. This procedure met
the point raised by the British Government in its note, of May 19, 1928,, where
it stated that the treaty from its very nature was not one which copcepned that
‘Government alone but was one in which that Government could not undertake
to participate otherwise than jointly and simultaneously with .the Government
in the Dominions and the Government of India; it also settled satisfactorily
the questibh whether there was any inconsistency between the new treaty and
the treaties of Locarno, thus meeting the observation^ pf the Freneh Govern-
ment as to the necessity of extending the number of original signatories.
The decision to limit the original signatories to the Powers named above,
that is, to the United States, Japan, the parties to the Locarno treaties, the
British iDominidns, and India was based entirely upon practical considerations.
It was the desire of the United States that the negotiations be successfully con-
cluded at the earliest possible moment, and that the treaty become operative
without the delay that Would inevitably result were prior universal acceptance
made a condition precedent to its coming into force. My Government felt,
moreover, that if these Powers could agreed upon a simple renunciation of
war as an instrumtnt of national policy, there could be no doubt that most if
not all the other Powers of the: World would find the. formula1 equally ahoeptable
and would hasten to lend their unqualified support to so impressive a move
ment.for the perpetuation of peace: The United States has, : however, been
anxious from the beginning that no state should feel deprived of an . .opport-
unity to participate promptly in the new treaty and thus !not only align
itself formally and solemnly with this new, manifestation of the popular demand
for . world peace but also avail itself of the identical benefits enjoyed by the
original signatories Accordingly, in the draft treaty proposed by it, the
United States made specific provision for participation , in the treaty by any
and every Power desiring to identify itself therewith and this same provision
is found in the definitive instrument sighed’to-day in Paris. It will also be
‘Observed that the Powers signing the treaty have recorded in the preamble
their hope that every nation of the world will participate in the treaty and
in that connection I am happy to be able to report that my Government has
already received from several Governments informal indications that they are
prepared to do so at the earliest possible moment. This convincing evidence
of the world wide interest and sympathy which the mew treaty has evoked is
most gratifying to all the Governments concerned.
In these circumstances I have the honour formally to oommumcate to
Your Excellency for your consideration, and for the approval of your Gov-
■ernment, if it concurs therein, the text of the above-mentioned treaty as
isigned to-day in Paris, omitting only that part of the preamble which names
yfcbe several, plenipotentiaries. The text is-as follows:
“The President of the German Reich, the President of the’United States
of America, His Majesty the King of the Belgians, the President,;of the
French Republic, His Majesty the King of Great Britain, Ireland, and the
British Dominions beyond the Seas, Emperor of India, His Majesty the
King, of Italy, His Majesty the Emperor of Japan, the President of the
Republic of Poland, the President of the Czecho-Slovakian Republic, deeply
sensible of their solemn duty - to promote the welfare of mankind;
“Persuaded that the time has come when a frank prescription of war
as an instrument of national policy should be made to the end that the
peaceful and: friendly relations now existing between their peoples may be
perpetuated;
“Convinced that all changes in the relations with one another should be
sought, only by pacific means and be the result of peaceful and orderly
ptocess and that any signatory Power ^bich shall hereafter seek tb pro-
mote its national interests by resort to war should be denied the benefits
furnished by this treaty;
134 KELdOGG PACT
“Hopeful thatr’encouraged by their example all the other nations of
the' world will join in this humane endeavour and by adhering to the-
jfregent treaty as soon as it comes into force, bring their peoples within the
scope of its beneficent provisions, thus uniting the civilized nations of the
world in a common renunciation of war as an instrument of their national
policy: '
“Have decided to conclude a treaty and for that purpose have ap-
,pointed as their respective plenipotentiaries (here follows the list of plqn-
■ ipoteptiaries). who, having communicated to one another their full powers-
found in good and due form have agreed upon the following articles:
“Article I.—First, solemnly declare in the name of their respective-
« peoples that they condemn recourse to war for the solution of international
• controversies^ and renounce it as an instrument of national policy in their
relations with one another.
“Article II.—The High Contracting Parties agree that the settlement
or solution of all disputes pf conflicts of whatever nature or of whatever
origin t^py may be, which may arise among them, shall never be sought-
except by pacific means
Article III.^The present treaty shall be ratified by the High Con-
tracting Parties named in the preamble in accordance with their respective
constitutional requirements, and shall take effect as between them as soon
as all their several instruments of ratification shall have been deposited
at Washington.

shall immediately upon its deposit become effective as between the Power
thus adhering and the other Powers parties hereto.
“It shall be the duty of the Government of the United States to
furnish each Government named in the preamble and every Government
subsequently adhering to this treaty with a certified copy of the treaty and
of every instrument of ratification or adherence. It shall also be the duty
of the Government of the United States telegraphically to notify such.
Governments immediately upon the deposit with it of each instrument of
ratification, cr adherence.
“In faith whereof the respective plenipotentiaries have signed this
treaty in the French and English languages, both texts having equal force,
and hereunto affixed their seals.
“Done at Paris the 27th day of August in the year one thousand nine
hundred and twenty^eight.,’
The provisions regarding ratification and adherence are, as Your Ex-
cellency will observe, found in the third and last Article. That Article pro-
vides that the treaty shall take effect as soon as the ratifications of all the
Powers named in the preamble shall have been deposited in Washington and
that it shall be open to adherefice by all the other Powers of the world, in-
struments'evidencing such adherence to be deposited in Washington also. Any
Power desiring to participate in the treaty may thus exercise the right to
adhere thereto and my Government will be happy to, receive at any time
appropriate notices of adherence Horn those Governments wishing to contribute
to the success of this new movement for world peace by bringing their peoples
w’if-hin its beimficent scope. It will be noted, in this connect;qn that, the treaty
expressly provides tjiat when it has once come into force it shall take effect
immediately between an adhering Power and the other Parties thereto, and
it is therefore 'dear 'that any Government adhering promptly will fully share
in the benefits of the treaty at the very moment it comes into effect.

Kanking, Sept. 13, 1923.
Excellency:
I have the honour to, aokhjOwledge the recej.pt,of yonypominunicatioi^cdated
August
for my 27consideration
in which theandGovernment of the United
for the approval of my States of America,
Government .present*
the text of a
treaty that was sighed on the; same day in Paris by the Governments of Ger-
many, the United States of America, Belgium, France, Great, Britain, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, the Irish Free State, India, Italy,
Japan, Poland, and Szecho-Slovakia binding them to renounce war as! an
instrumental

means the in their orrelations
solutionwith
of one another and
all disputes whichto may
seek
arise among them.
“The ideals which are embodied in this treaty of extraordinary significance
are the, foundation on which the national life of the Chinese people is con-
structed and I wish, therefbre, immediately to avail myself of this opportunity
to inform you that this impressive movement for the perpetuation of universal
peace and’for the advancfement of world civilization, arousied opr sympathetic
interest from the very beginning and thiit in its present form as a definitive
•treaty, my Government has decided'to'adhere to it without delay.
The Chinese Government, and people feel, deeply confident that the inter-
dependence of the different nations of the world is making it increasingly
manifest to all thinking minds that the renunciation of yyar, and a frank
-avowal of the need of friendly relations is the only means to save civilization
from the danger of destruction. We :are, indeed, brought before'the supreme
test whether, after those painful experiences of a few years ago which still
linger in our memory, we are not yet convinced of the absolute necessity of
a real spirit of mutual co-bperation to guide us in our national policies to-
wards one another. It is therefore a source of profound satisfaction to see
that this action of momentous impoi’tance, so ably sponsored by the United
States of America, is receiving universal response.
As you are aware, the whole conception of life among our people centres
rohnd the ideal of harmony. It is indeed difficult, if not impossible, to find
in all our thinkers a view of life which justifies conflict in any form as the
basis of a national policy, and I venture to think that it is this idea of
harmony and peace which accounts for the stability of pur civilization and
the extraordinary length of our history. The present treaty to renounce
war is, in fact, a vindication’of the teachings of our revered ancestors, and
especially as these teachings, which have been amplified by our late leader,
Dr. Sun Yat-sen, so clearly embodied in such noble principles as Universal
Justice and The Brotherhood of Nations, are also at the present moment being
-applied in the building up of a new China, the Chinese people are prepared
to join with America and the other signatory Powers with more than the
usual enthusiasm in endeavouring to attain the noble ends of peace.
We are deeply sensible, however, that in order to make war really im-
possible, it is necessary to eliminate all causes which arfi likely to give rise
to any international dispute, and rigidly to uphold the principle of cquhfity
EXTRATERRITORIALITY
and mutual respect for territorial sovereignty among all nations. My Gov-
ernment, therefore, firmly believes that all the signatory Powers will abide by
the spirit of the present treaty and remove, at the earliest opportunity, all
of China’s unequal treaties and encroachments upon her sovereignty, as for
instance, the stationing of large numbers of alien troops on her soil. For it
is clear that a free and independent China is one of the most vital factors,
whereby permanent world peace may be promoted and strengthened.
I avail myself of this opportunity to extend to you the assurance of roy
highest consideration.

Minister for Foreign Affairs.
EXTRATERRITORIALITY.
On April 27, 1929, the Minister for Foreign Affairs addressed Notes to>
the British, American, Brazilian, Dutch, French and Norwegian Envoys,
urging the early abolition of extraterritoriality. The Notes were similar in
wording, those addressed to the British, American and French Ministers being,
identical.
The text of the Notes to the British, American and French Ministers is-
as follows: —
Ministry of Foreign Affairs,.
Nanking.
April 27,1929.
Your Excellency:
I have the honour to recall to Your Excellency that the Chinese Govern-
ment, through its representatives, had had occasion to express at the Paris.
Peace Conference its strong desire for the removal of limitations on China’s-
jurisdictional sovereignty imposed upon her by the old treaty concluded between
China and the foreign Powers and that the Chinese Delegation emphatically
reiterated the same desire at the Washington Conference, which placed cn
record its sympathetic disposition towards furthering the aspiration of China
for the removal of restrictions on her political, jurisdictional and administra-
tive freedom of action.
With the unification of China and the establishment upon a firm founda-
tion of the National Government, a new era has been happily inaugurated
in the relations between our two countries through the conclusion of the recent
Tariff Treaty, and it is tp be confidently hoped that the material well-being,
of our two countries will henceforth be greatly enhanced. But it is the belief
and the conviction of the Chinese Government that the promotion of such
material well-being will be accelerated by a readjustment of the relations be-
tween our two countries, on a basis of friendly equality in matters of juris-
diction, and if Your Excellency’s Government could see its way to meet the
wishes of the Chinese Government and people in this regard, it is certain
that another obstacle to the full and frank co-operation, in trade or other-
wise, between the Chinese people and foreign nationals in this country
would be happily removed and that the desire of the Chinese Government
for promoting to the fullest extent the material interests of all who choose
to associate themselyes with our own people would find its early realization.
It goes without saying that extraterritoriality in China is a legacy of
the old regime, which has not only ceased to be adaptable to the present-day
conditions, but has become so detrimental to the smooth working of the judicial
and administrative machinery of China that her progress as a member of
the Family of Nations has been unnecessarily retarted. The inherent defects
clearlyip conveniences
and pointed out byof the
the Chinese
system Government
of, consular onjurisdiction have been
various occasions and most
also,
by the jurists and publicists of other countries in their official utterances as.
EXTRATERRITORIALITY 13:
'well as in their academic discussions. It is a matter for sincere regret that,
'while many Governments which are playing, an important role in interna-
tional affairs are eager and persistent in their endeavour to promote geniune
friendship and harmony among nations, such anachronistic practices as only
tend to mar the friendly relations between the 'Chinese people and foreign
nationals should .be allowed to* exist at a time when justice and equity are
•supposed to govern the relations of nations.
With the; close , contact between China and the foreign .Powers,; the asp-
milation of western legal conceptions by Chinese jurists and incorporation
of western legal principles in Chinese jurisprudence have proceeded very
rapidly. In addition to the numerous codes and laws now in force, the Civil
node and the Commercial code have reached the. final stage of preparation
and will be ready for promulgation before January 1st, 1930. Courts and
prisons, along modern lines, have been established, and are being established,
throughout the whole country.
Inasmuch as doubt has been entertained with regard to the advisability
of relinquishing extraterritorial privileges at this juncture by the interested
Powers, it may be pointed out that certain countries, having ceased to enjoy
extraterritorial privileges in China, have found satisfaction in the protection
given to their nationals by Chinese law and have had no cause for complaint
that their interests nave been in any way prejudiced. Your Excellency’s
■Government may, therefore; rest assured that the legitimate rights and in-
terests of your nationals will not be unfavourably affected in the least by the
relinquishment of the exceptional privileges which they now possess.
As Your Excellency’s Government has always maintained a friendly atti-
tude towards China and has always shown its readiness in the adoption of
measures for the removal of limitations on China’s sovereignity, X am happy
to- express to Your Excellency, on behalf of the Chinese Goverpment, the
desire of China to have, the restrictions on her jurisdictional sovereignty re-
moved at the earliest possible date and confidently hope that Your Excellency’s
Government will take this desire of China into immediate and sympathetic
consideration and favour me with an earty reply so that steps may be taken
to enable China, now unified and with a strong Central Government, to right-
fully assume jurisdiction over alX nationals within her domain.
I avail myself of this opportunity to .renew to Your Excellency the as-
■surnoe of my, highest consideration.

THE AMERICAN REPLY.
His Excellency Peking, Aug. 10. 1920.
Dr. Chengiing T. Wang,
Minister for Fore-gn Affairs,
Nanking.
Excellency:
I have the honour to a».knowledge the receipt of the Chinese Government’s
iNote of April 27th in which there is expressed. the; desire that the United
States should relinquish file further exercise of extraterritorial jurisdiction
over its citizens in China and the hope that the American Government will
take this desire into immediate and sympathetic consideration.'
I am directed by my Government to state that it is prepared to give
sympathetic consideration to the desires expressed by the Chinese Govern-
ment, giving at the same time, as it must, due consideration to the responsi-
bilities which rest upon the Government of the United States in connection
138 KXTllATF.R III TOR! ALIT Y
with.-^he...problem of jurisdiction over the persons and property of Americans!
citizens in China. My Government, has* in fact, for some time past given
constant and sympathetic consideration to the national aspirations of the-
people of ,China, and it has repeatedly given concrete evidence of its desire-
to promote the realization of these aspirations in so far as action of the
United States may contribute to that result. As long ago as the year 1903,
in Article 15 of the Treaty concluded in that year between the United States
and China, the American Goyernment agreed that it would be prepared to-
relinquish the jurisdiction which it.exercised over its nationals in China “when
satisfied that the state of the Chinese laws, the arrangements for their ad-
ministration, and other considerations warrant it in so doing.” As recently
as last year, the American Government gave very definite evidence of its
desire to promdte the realization‘of China’s aspirations by concluding with
the Government of China, onf; July 23, 1928, a Treaty by 'vyhich the two countries
agreed to cancellation of prSvisions in earlier treaties j whereby China’s
authority in reference to Customs duties on goods' imported into China by‘
American nationals had been restricted.
The exercise by the United States of jurisdiction over its citizens in
China'had its genesis in an early agreement that, because of differences be-
tween the customs of the two countries and peoples, and differences between'
their judicial systems, it would be wise to place upon the American Govern-
ment the duty of extending to American nationals in China the restraints and
the benefits of the system of jurisprudence tp which they and their fellow
nationals wercafecustomed in the United States.'
My Government deems it proper at this point to remind the Government
of China that this system of American jurisdiction as administered by the
extraterritorial courts has me,vef been, extended by the United States beyond
the purposes';-to which i,C,was by tbe’Treaties originally limited. Those pur-
poses were, the lawful controUand protection of the persons and property of
Americap citizens, who have.:established themselves in China in good faith in
accordance
sent of Chinawith, the .normal
in the terms ofdevelopment
the Treatiesof and with the knowledge
the commercial and culturaland rela-
cm
tions, between... the.'two countries. The United States has never sought to extend
its sovereignty oyer anyi portion of the territory of China.
Under the provisions qf the JEreaty of 1844, and other agreements concluded
thereafter which established that system, American citizens have lived and
have Carried oh their'legitimate ehterprises in China with benefit both to the
Chinese and to themselves They have engaged extensively in cultural and
in commercial enterprises involving, large sums of money and extensive pro-
pertiesj, , and, as ,your Government has so graciously indicated in the Note

EXTRATERRITORIAtLITY
My Government has instructed me to say that the statement of the
Minister of Foreign Affairs of China, telegraphed to the press of the United
'States on July 26th, to the effect that “all foreign interests in China purely
for legitimate purposes will be duly respected” has been noted by it with
pleasure as indicating that the Government of China ha-S not failed to appre-
ciate the value to its foreign relations of the factors abpye mentioned. jVly
Government bids me add that it is therefore persuaded that the Government
of China will concur in its'belief based as it is upon the facts set forth in
-succeeding paragraphs, that the sudden abolition of the system of protection
by its extraterritorial courts in the face of conditions prevailing in China
to-day Would in effect expose the property of American citizens to danger of
unlawful seizure and place in jeopardy the liberty of the persons of American
citizens.
The Chinese Government has, on several occasions during recent years,
expressed the desire that the .Powers relinquish the exercise.of extraterritorial
jurisdiction over their citizens In the Note under acknowledgment reference
is made to the position haken at the Washington Conference. It will ; be re*
called that, in pursuance, of-the resolution adopted ■ at that Conference, there
was created a Commission to inquire into the present practice of extraterri-
torial jurisdiction in China and into the laws and the judicial system.and the
methods of judicial administration of China,;and that, under date pf Sept-
ember. L6, 1926, that Commission made its report. This report contained; an
account of t.hp conditions then , prevailing in the judicial system of China, as
well as. a number of recommendations carefully : suggested as indicating the
changes and improvements which would be necessary before there would be
adequately developed a system of, known law and an independent judiciary
capable of justly controlling and protecting the lives' find property'' of the
citizens of foreign ' countries doing; business in China. Ybujr: Govbrhmeht will

mendations was composed of representatives from thirteen 'countries including
both China and the -United States and :that its fecbrnmendhtionh'thbughtfiilly
and reasonably conceived Were unanimously adopted and'were signed' by ail
of the Commissioners.”

BRITISH REPLY.
British Legation, Peking,

10th August, 1929.
Sir,
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your Note of April STtin
in which you inform me of the desire of the National Government of the Re-
public of China that the restrictions imposed on the jurisdictional sovereignty
of China by the system of extraterritoriality now in force should be removed-
at the earliest possible date with a view to the assumption of jurisdiction by
China over all nationals in her domain.
2. I have communicated the contents of your letter to my Government
and I am now instructed to transmit to you a reply in the following sense:
3. Animated by the friendly feelings which they have always entertained
towards the Government and people of China His Majesty’s Government have-
given
relatingtheirto sympathetic
the abolitionconsideration to the request
of extraterritorial of the inChinese
jurisdiction China.Government
The high importance of this subject in its bearing both on the political
development of China and the future relations between China and Great
Britain appears to demand that it should be closely examined from every
aspect. In particular a just appreciation of the reasons for which and the
manner in which the present system of extraterritoriality came into existence
seems essential to a consideration of the proper method for dealing with the
problem.
4. The system of extraterritoriality in force in China has its root deep
down in the past. For thousands of years before science had improved com-
munications, the Chinese people were secluded from the rest of the world by
deserts and the ocean and they developed a civilisation and a policy peculiar
to themselves. A wide gulf was thus fixed between Europe and America cm
the one hand and China on the other.
5. In particular the conception of international relations as being inter-
course between eqtial and independent states—a conception which was woven
into
entirelythe alien
very texture of the
to Chinese political
modes ideas ofWhen
of thought the nations
traders ofof the
the West—was
West first
found their way to the coast of China, the Chinese Government found it diffi-
eult to allow them freely to enter into their country and mingle with their
people nor did they recognise that the nations to which they belonged were
the equals of China. These traders were therefore confined to a small section
of a single city in one corner of the Empire and while on the one hand they
were subjected to many disabilities and to grave humiliations, on the other
hand, by a species of amorphous and unregulated extraterritoriality, which
was the natural outcome of these conditions, the responsibility of managing
their own affairs and maintaining order amongst themselves was in some
measure lift to their own initiative.
6. Relations continued for many years upon this insecure and unsatisfac-
tory footing. Friction was often dangerously intense and conflicts not infre-
quently arose, generally out of demands that some innocent person should be
surrendered for execution to expirate perhaps an accidental homicide or that
foreign authority should assume the responsibility for enforcing the revenue1
laws of China.
EXTRATERRITORIALITY 44*
7.. The object; of the first, itreaties was to secure recognition by China of
Great Britain’s equality with herself and to define and regulate the extrater-
ritorial status of British subjects. Relations between the two countries having
thus been placed on a footing of equality and mutual respect, Great Britain
was content that her nationals should continue to bear those responsibilities
and to labour under thosb disabilities which respect for the sovereignty of
China entailed upon them. Conditions did not permit the general opening of
the ihteiior of China and the residence of foreigners has consequently continued
down to the present day to be restricted to a limited number of cities known
as Treaty Ports.
8. His Majesty’s Government recognise the defects and inconveniences
of the system of consular jurisdiction to which tfie Government of China have
on various occasions drawn attention. In 1902 in Article 12 of the Treaty
of Commerce between Great Britain and China signed in that year, His
Majesty’s Government stated their readiness to relinquish their extraterritorial
rights when they were satisfied that the state of Chinese laws the arrangements
for their administration and other considerations warranted them in so doing.
They have since watched with appreciation the progress which China has
made in the assimilation of western legal principals to which referencei is made
in your Note under reply and they have observed with deep interest the facts
set out and recommendations made in the report of the Commission on Ex-
traterritoriality in the year 1926.
9. More recently in the declaration which they published in December
1926 andi the proposals which they made to the Chinese authorities in January
1927 His Majesty’s Government have given concrete evidence of their desire to
meet in a spirit of friendship and sympathy the legitimate aspirations of the
Chinese people. They have already travelled some distance along the road
marked out in those documents and they are willing to examine in collabora-
tion with the Chinese Government the whole problem of extraterritorial juris-
diction with a view to ascertaining what further steps in the same direction
it may be possible to take at the present time.
10. His Majesty’s Government would however observe that the promulga-
tion of codes embodying Western legal principles represents only one portion
of the task to be accomplished before it would be safe to abandon in their
entirety the special arrangements which have hitherto regulated the residence
of foreigners in China. In order that those reforms should become a living;
reality it appears to His Majesty’s Government to be necessary that Western
legal principles should be understood and be found acceptable by the people at
large, no less than by their rulers, and that the Courts which administer these
laws should be free from interference and dictation at the hands, not only of
military chiefs, but of groups and associations who either set up arbitrary
and illegal tribunals of their own or attempt to use legal courts for the fur-
therance of political objects rather than for the administration Of equal justice
between Chinese and Chinese and between Chinese and foreigners. Not until
these conditions are fulfilled in h far greater measure than appears to be the
case to-day will it be practicable for British merchants to reside, trade and
own property throughout the territories of China with the same equality of
freedom and safety as these privileges are accorded to Chinese merchants in
Great Britain. Any agreement purporting to accord with privileges to British
merchants would remain for some time to come a mere paper agreement to-
which it would be impossible to give effect in practice. Any attempt prema-
turely to accord such privileges would not only be of no benefit to British mer-
chants but might involve the Government and people of China in political
and economic difficulties.
11. So long as these conditions subsist there appears to be no practicable
alternative to maintaining though perhaps in a modified form the Treaty Port
system that has served for nearly a century to regulate intercourse between
China and British subjects with her domain. Some system of extraterri-
toriality is the natural corollary for the maintenance of the Treaty Port sys-
142- EXTEATERRITOEIAiLI'TY
tem and the problem as it present itself to His Majesty’s Government at the
present moment is to discover what further modifications in that system beyoal
those already made and alluded to above it would be desirable and practicable
to effect.
12. His Majesty’s Government await further proposals from the National
Government as to the procedure now to be adopted for examining this question
and they instruct me to assure Your Excellency that they will continue to
maintain towards any such proposals the same friendly and helpful attitude
to which 'Yotir Excblleiicy has paid so generous a tribute in the eoncludihg
paragraph of your Note under reply.

ahce of my highest hbnsideratioii;'

FRENCH REPLY.
The following is the English translation of the reply of the French Gov-
ernment to Ghina'S Note concerning'’the abolition of extraterritoriality.
August 10, 1929.
Monsieur le Ministre,
I have the honour *to acknowledge the receipt of the note dated April 27
in which you express'the hope that the French Government would take into
immediate and favourable consideration the desire of the Chinese Government
to.be enabled to exercise its jurisdiction over all nationals residing in China.
Having taken note of this communication which has been the object of its
•careful attention, the French Government authorizes me to recall to Your Ex-
cellency that during the Washington Conference it gave voluntarily its approval
to the resolution of December 10, 1921, according to the terms of which an
international Commission was established to study the question of extraterri-
toriality in China.
This Commission, in its report of September 16, 1926, made recommenda-
tions, the application of which, might, in its judgment, permit the Powers
to relinquish extraterritoriality.
Taking into consideration the facts stated by the said Commission, the
French Go’veir.mcnt consi-iprs that, in order to realize the conditions favourable
for the renunciation of extraterritorial, rights enjoyed -by. its nationals in
virtue of the treaty, of X3aS, it is indispensable that the Chinese Government
proceed to the reforni of its laws, its , judicial institutions gnet its method
of judicial administration, in confprmity with the recommendations of the
'Cdn.imission, .recommendations , to. whiqh Ih.e Delegate has given his
approval. It is when these reforms, have been carried out and effectively put
into practice that the rights of residenpp, of property owning and trade
throughout the whole pf China, the necessary counterpart of the relinquishment
■o^/extrgiterritpriajity, might constitute for the French nationals a regl ad-
vantage equivalent to that which the Chinese enjoy in France,
; The French Government, animated by the friendly / feelings which it was
always cherished towards the Chinese people and of which another proof was
, given last year, by the signing of the Tariff AntQbomy Treaty, has no doubt
that the Chinese Government will make every effort to fulfill the conditions
necessary to the examination of the problem of extraterritoriality.
It is in this spirit that the Ffeneh Government,, faithful to its liberal
traditions,, basi aulhprized me to give-you assurance that it i will continue to
EXTRATERRITORIAjLITY m
take an active interest in the reforms to that end which remain to be acconv
plished and that it will carefully note all the facts which tend to show '^hafc
these reforms are effectively carried out in the administration and judicial
practice of the Government authorities and the people of Ghina.
On the other hand, the French Government will riot fail to avail itself
of the opportunities as they arise to co-operate profitably with Chinese authori-
ties in the endeavour to hasten a State of affairs which would permit it to
modify with the necessary guarantees the present jurisdictional status of the
French nationals in China.
THS NETHERLANDS’ REPLY.
The following is the English translation of the reply of the Netherlands
Government tb China’s ndte concerning the abolition of extraterritoriality.
Legation des Pays-Bas
Peking, Aug. 10. 1929.
Monsieur le Ministre,
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of Your Excellency’s Note of
April 27 last in which the Chinese Government expresses the hope that Her
Majesty’s Government would take into sympathetic consideration the desire
of China to come to an agreerfient by which the limitation on China’s jurisdic-
tional sovereignty will be removed and which will enable the Chinese Govern-
ment to assume jurisdiction .over all nationals within its domain.
Your Excellency expressed the conviction that the reciprocal advantages
resulting from tire tariff convention recently concluded between our two
countries would be considerably enhanced if the relations between our two
countries were regulated on the basis of equality in matters of jurisdiction,
and that by the abolition of the system of consular jurisdiction an obstacle
would be removed for the full cooperation between the Chinese people and
foreign nationals especially in commercial matters ; the desire of the Chinese
Government for promotig the material interests of all who choose to associate
themselves with the Chinese people would in that case find its early realization.
Her Majesty’s Government has givbn this request its mbst careful consi-
deration, and now instructs me to inform Your Excellency that just as it
was happy to join the other powers in bringing about the Resolution adopted
on iDecember : XOth 1921 Ly the Washington Conference ; on the Limitation of
Armaments, which placed on record its sympathetic disposition towards China’s
aspiration, so. it will ;be pleased to co-operte with these Powers and with
China for the realization and fulfilment of China’s desire w-ith regard to the
question of jurisdiction.
It may here be recalled that w ith this end in view Her Majest’s. Govern-
ment wholeheartedly participated in the work of the International Commission,
which was instituted as a result of the. above-mentioned Resolution and which,
drew up a number of valuable recornmendations for the benefit of the Chinese
Government.
It cannot be gainsaid that there exists a close, relationship between the
internal situation of China, the guarantees which the laws offer to foreign
rights and interests and their administration in the whole of China on the one-
hand, and the measure of progress which it will be possible to make .on the road
to abolition of the special arrangements now in. force with regard to foreigners
on the other. The possibility for Netherlands subjects tt> enjoy liberty of trade,
of residence and of the exercise'of Civil rights including that of owing property
throughout the whole'Of China is in the same way , closely connected with the
degree Of security existing in the interior of the country and with the questioh
of what safeguards the Chinese judicial institutions offer with a view to their
independence and their immunity from interference by military and political
authorities.
144 EXTRATERRITORIAiLITY
I am desired by Her Majesty’s Government to assure with Excellency
of, its unalterable sympathy : towards 'China with regard to this question and
of its readiness when the introduction and the effective acceptance by the
country of modern institutions guaranteeing the administration of just laws
by an independent and unassailable, judiciary will have rendered useful re-
forms possible, in the matter of jurisdiction over Netherlands nationals, to
act in unison with the Governments of the Powers who were represented at the
Conference of Washington with the object object of examining the possibility
of meeting the aspiration to which the Chinese Delegation at the said Con-
ference gave expression and which is reiterated in Your Excellency’s Note
under reply. .,

NORWEGIAN REPLY.
The following is the English translation of the reply of the Norwegian
Government to1 China’s Note concerning the abolition qf extraterritoriality.
(Legation de Norvege
Peking, Aug. 14, 1929.
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of Your Excellency’s note
of April 27 expressing on behalf of the Chinese Government the desire of
China to, have the restriction on her jurisdictional sovereignty removed and
the hope that the Norwegian Government will take this desire into immediate
and sympathetic consideration in order tq enable China to assume jurisdiction
over all nationals within her domain
Having communicated the contents of the Note to my Government I am
now instructed to recall to Your Excellency that the Norwegian Government
has already, in concluding, on November 12 last year, a new treaty with the
Chinese Government, given concrete evidence of the friendly feeling which
Norway has always entertained towards China and the Chinese people.
My Government now desires me to, reiterate, the assurance, already ex-
pressed on that occasion, that the same friendly feelings will not be found to
have changed when the question of revising other clauses of the treaty of
1847 between Norway and China is brought up for discussion.
As to the question of removing the restrictions on China’s jurisdictional
sovereignty (by relinquishing the consular jurisdiction) this question was
already given sympathetic consideration when, in 1926, a Norwegian delegate
joined the international Commission to inquire into extraterritorial jurisdic-
tion in China.
I may add that the administration of the Norwegian jurisdiction in China
has never been extended beyond the purpose for which it was introduced, and
I am directed to state in conclusion that my Government has no desire to
maintain the Consular, Court longer than considered necessary and is pre-
pared to abolish the same when all the other Treaty Powers will do so.

EXTRATERRITORIALITY 146
CHINESE REPLY TO AMERICA.
Nanking, September 5, 1920.
Monsieur 1c Ministre:
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your Excellency’s Note
of August 10th in which you are good enough to transmit to me the views
of your Government in regard to the request of the 'Chinese Government, con-
tained in my Note of April 27, for the removal of restrictions on China’s juris-
-dictional sovereignty.
The Chinese Government is pleased to be reminded by the American Gov-
■ ernment that it has, for some time past, given constant and sympathetic con-
sideration to the national aspirations of the people of China and that it
has repeatedly given concrete evidence of its desire to promote the realisation
of those aspirations. The traditional friendship between China and America
:has not only a common material basis, but is also deeply rooted in the idealism
which is common to the Chinese and the American people. The American peo-
ple, with their love of liberty, their zeal for justice, their desire to further
the advance of civilisation and their sympathy for the aspirations of nations
in their spiritual re-birth all of which reveal unmistakably the noble attitude
of the American mind, have aroused the admiration and won the, love of the
Chinese people. This idealism has manifested itself in the abolition of slavery,
, the growth of democracy, and the endeavour to establish a reign of universal
peace, which has given a new hope to the human race. It is this idealism
that accounts for the steadfastness of the American Government and people
in their friendship for China through all the vicissitudes of her fortunes! It
is again this idealism that has prompted the American Government to give
.sympathetic consideration to the desire of the Chinese Government in connec-
tion with the question of jurisdiction and to decide to enter into negotiations
for the devising of a method leading to the eventual abolition of Extraterri-
;torial privileges.
It seems to me, however, from a careful consideration of your Note that
'the America Government is not yet free from misgivings as to the safety of
American lives and property after the abolition of Extraterritoriality. The
American Government is undoubtedly aware of the fact that the liberty of
American citizens and the security of their property rights do not so much
depend upon the continued exercise of jurisdiction by their own Consular
Courts, as upon the timely removal of hindrances to the free and full assertion
of China’s sovereign rights. Extraterritorial privileges, while apparently bene-
ficial to foreigners in China in giving the impression of security and safety,
i have really had the most injurious effect on their relations with the Chinese
| d)y producing! in the latter the feeling of humiliation and a sense of resentment
which have always caused mutual suspicion and the consequent loss of mutual
•confidence, thus undermining the very foundations of friendly relations and
not infrequently giving rise to complications and conflicts. Such conflicts and
complications could be easily avoided wTere there none of those special privileges.
In this connexion, it may be pointed out that towards nationals of certain
countries who have lost their extraterritorial privileges and have submitted to
, The jurisdiction of China, the Chinese people enterian the most friendly feel-
ings and repose in them great confidence, a valuable asset, it will be admitted,
, in the intercourse, commercial or otherwise, of any two peoples. Such marked
difference in the relations between Chinese and nationals of Extraterritorial
Powers on the one hand and those between the Chinese and the nationals of
non-extraterritorial Powers bn the other will, as long as the extraterritorial
■system is retained, become more and more pronounced, and much as the Chinese
Government may try to discountenance this difference of attitude on the part
of its citizens, it will not be within its powers to control the natural expression
-of their feelings.
In the event, however, of American citizens relinquishing their Extraterri-
I ctorial privileges, they may rest assured that they will enjoy the same confidence
146 EXTRATE RIU TORI AiLITY
of the Chinese people and. henc^ the same material benefits as the nationals of
nou-extraterritorial Powers. Moreover, the Chinese Government will continue
to exercise, in accordance with the well established principle of international
law, due diligence in preventing any possible violations of the private rights,
of American citizens and perform its duty,, in the fullest possible measure, in
all matters relating to the redress of wrongs.
In your Note under acknowledgment reference is made to the report of
the Gojnmission on Extraterritoriality submitted to the interested Governments-
pursuant to a resolution adopted at the Washington Conference. The American,
Government must be aware of the fact that since the completion of that re-
port, conditions in’Chixia have greatly changed, and in particular both the poli-
tical and judicial systems hUvC asshmed a new aspect! To pass judgment on the
present state of law and judicial administration in China in the light of
what is contained in the report of 1926 is doing no justice to the steadfast
policy Of the National Government.

The
American Government, which did full justice to the Turkish people in the
matter of jurisdiction, without apy apprehension and with satisfactory results,
will no doubt, pive the problem of Extraterritoriality in China in the same
friendly and sympathetic spirit.
It has been perhaps brought to, the knowledge of the. American Govern-
ment that the Chinese Government has recently concluded treaties with several,
other Powers'which have agreed fo 1 relinguash :Jlxtraterritpfiglity on January
1, ,1930. If it had appeared .to the Government of those Powers, as it appears-,
to ,the American Government, that there did not yet exist in this country
a judiciafy capable of rendering justice ,to their nationals and a ,body pf Taws-
adequate to give protection to their lives and property, they would certainly
have refused to give up their privileged position and enter into the engage-
ments; they have made. Now that many of the Powers which, participated .in

its usefulness al-
should be replaced by one in Eafmony with the actual state of things, there-
is no reason why the United States, upon which fell the honour of initiating
the labours of that Conference, should not act in unison with those Powers,
thus removing the difficulties which the Chinese Government might otherwise
encounter in extending jurisdiction, over .all foreign nationals.
It is the hope of the Chinese Government that whatever misgivings and
apprehensions the American Government may have in considering the subject,
under discussion will be now dispelled, and that, in the further examination
of this subject, it will be actuated by much weighter considerations, namely,
the enhancement of friendship between tho Chinese and the American people, .
and hence the promotion of the material interests of both. It is with this last,

Extraterritoriality in China in the same friendly and. sympathetic spirit.
It has been perhaps brought to the knowledge of the French Government
that the Chinese Government has recently concluded treaties with several other
Powers which have agreed to .relinquish extraterritorial privileges on January
1st, 1930. If it had appeared to the Governments of those Powers, as it appears
;t0 the French Government, that there' did not. yet exist in this country a
judiciary capable of rendering justice to their nationals and a body of laws
adequate to give, protection fo their lives and property, they would certainly
Rave refused to give up their privileged position and enter into the engage-
ments they have made. Now fhat many of the Powers which participated in
the diseussioris of Extraterritoriality of the Washington Conference have
.already shown by an overt act that that system has outlived its usefulness afid
•should be replaced by one in harmony with the actual state of things, there is
no reason why the French Government, which played an important part in the
•deliberation, of ,;that Conference, should not act in unison. with those Powers,
thus removing the difficulty which the Chinese Government might otherwise en-
counter in metending jurisdiction over all foreign nationals.
148 RENDITION OF TIENTSIN
It is the hope of the Chinese Government that whatever misgiving an apprehensions the French Government may have in considering the subject un-
der discussion will be now dispelled, and that, in the further examination
of this subject, it will be actuated by much weightier considerations, namely
the enhancement of friendship between the Chinese and the French people,,
and hence the promotion of the material interests of both. It is with this;
last object in view that the Chinese Government now requests the French?.
Government to enter into immediate discussions with the authorised repre-
sentative of the Chinese, Government
whereby Extraterritoriality in China for
willmaking the necessary
be abolished arrangements-
to the mutual satis-
faction of both Governments.
I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to Your Excellency the assur-
ance of my highest consideration.

REORGANIZATION OE THE SHANGHAI
PROVISIONAL COURT
On May 8, 1929, the Ministry for Foreign Affairs addressed identic notes-
to the Ministers of Great Britain, The United States, France, Netherlands,
Norway and Brazil requesting them forthwith to begin negotiations for tlie
reorganization of the Provisional Court of the Shanghai International Settle-
ment. Mr. Oudendijk, the iDutch Minister, on behalf of the interested Powers,
replied on June 7, stating that the Court was a strictly local affair, and its
reorganization should be examined on behalf of the (Legations concerned by a
Commission chosen from among their local representatives together with the re-
presentatives of the Chinese Government. Dr. C. T. Wang protested on July
3, and insisted on the settlement of the affair directly with the Ministers them-
selves. On August 2, Mr. Oudendijk accepted Dr. Wang’s proposal.
Beginning from December 9, 1929, the resultant conference held twenty-
eight meetings at Nanking. A draft agreement was drawn up and referred by
the Delegates to their respective Governments. On February 17, 1930, the
Agreement was signed at Nanking by the representatives of the Ministers of
the interested Powers, with the exception of the French delegate Mr. Koechliu,
who had not then received the necessary instructions from his Government. The
latter’s signature was, however, affixed on behalf of the French Minister, at
Shanghai, five days later.

TOKYO
The capital of Japan is situated on Tokyo Bay, bn the East coast of
Japan. The river Sumida runs through the city, the larger part lying to the
west of this waterway, while on the east lie the two wards named Honjo and
F ukagawa
Tokyo as viewed from the bay is a pleasant-looking city, being well situat-
ed undulating ground, and possessing abundant foliage. The city covers 198
square miles and is divided into 35 wards.
In 1603, when lyeyasu became Shogun, he made Yedo, as it was then
called his capital, and from that time, in spite.of the earthquakes which
several times nearly destroyed it and the fires which ravaged it, the city con-
tinued to grow until it exceeded Kyoto, the ancient capital, in population and
in splendour. The transfer of the Imperial Capital from Kyoto to Tokyo, as
it was then re-named, in 1868, brought increased prosperity to the city, and
from a population of a little more than 580,000 in 1878, it increased to
1,2:'
census.0,000wasin taken.
1888, to According
1,140,000 into1898, and to 2,170,000
an estimate made byin city
1920officials
when the first 1934
during national
the
population was 5,663,350.
Tokyo is one of the three cities in Japan which stands in a prefecture;by
itself, with a Governor appointed by the Central Government. The city itself
is governed by a Mayor and a Municipality, Which now has control over most
of the public utilities, including the water aiid electric supplies, and the
tramways. Of recent years the feudal aspect of Tokyo has almost entirely
disanpeared, the streets having been widened so as to permit of modern traffic
conditions. Many fine buildings have also been erected, such as the Imperial
Theatre, one of the finest in the Far East, the Imperial Hotel and large
blocks of business houses. Tokyo Central Station situated in the heart of the
business quarters, is now connected with all the main lines in Japan, thus
adding to the convenience of passengets.
TOKYO 2 <7
A section well worth a visit is the public park or garden named Uyeno,
where formerly stood tbe magnificent temple founded and maintained by the
Shoguns, and whibh was destroyed by fire during the War of Restoration in
July, 1868. In Uyeno is‘also situated the fine Imperial Museum (Haku-butsu-
kwan), the Tokyo Gallery of Fine Arts, the Academy of Music and a small
Zoological Garden.
Undoubtedly the finest recent addition to the capital is the Meji Shrine-
dedicated to the Emperor Meiji, (1868-1911), and its beautiful outer garden
which includes a fine stadium for athletic meetings and football matches, a
huge baseball ground, a swimming pool and an imposing Mei.u Art Gallery.
Among the places much resorted to by visitors is the ancient temple of
Kwannon, at Asakusa, not far from Uyeno, one of the most popular and most
frequented temples in Japan. At the right of the temple there is a fine old
Pagoda, and near it are two colossal stone statues. A new park was also
opened close to the temple about the same time as that of Uveno. Thus,
with Shiba, in the, southwest, where are to be seen some of the splendid
shrines of the Shoguns, among the chief glories of Tokyo, there are three
large public gardens within the city, in addition to the Meiji Shrine garden
mentioned above.
Tokyo, does no direct foreign trade, all goods from abroad or coming
from abroad, being handled by lighters to and’ from’ Yokohama.- Of . late years
Tokyo has become the centre of a large industrial district. In addition to
the smaller industries that are carried on in the city itself, there are in the
immediate vicinity of the capital large cotton mills, iron foundries, and
machine shops which employ thousands of hands.
The districts of Honjo and Fukagawa form a distinct industrial portion
of the capital. Here is the centre of the lumber and other trades. This
quarter is connected with the rest of the city by ten splendid bridges all re-
built since the earthquake. The biggest of them are called, commencing on
the

may obtain a fine view of the animated river life of the Sumida, whose Waters are
always covered with junks and boats of all descriptions.
Several great first have swept Tokyo during the last two decades, and
these have led to ..great improvements and widening of the streets. -The last
of these broke out on September 1st, 1923, following upon a very severe earth-
quake- The casualties due to this terrible visitation were as follows, accord-
ing to a return isstied in November by the Home Office:—Dead 68,215; missing
(believed to be dead). 39,304; injured. 42,135. The number of houses des-
troyed is said to have been 316,000, or 71 per cent, of the whole of the build
ings of the city; and no fewer than 1,360,000 people were rendered home-
less.
The soldiers and police are dressed in uniform on the western model.
Though large numbers appear in European garb, the native dress still com-
monly worn, and in the case , of the women has practically not at alUbeen
superseded.

Many of the most famous educational institutions are situated in Tokyo.
In addition to the Imperial University, there is the celebrated Waseda
University, the Keio Gijuku, the Meiji Gakuin, the Aoyama Gakuin, and a
large number of technical, normal, commercial and other colleges.

Tokyo was opened to foreign residence in 1870 and an area of land at

YOKOHAMA 265
Yakohama chiefly subsists on its foreign trade, especially the valuable
■silk trade, which from the. time of the opening of the country has always
foeen handled at the port. The earthquake of 192.'! for a time disabled the port,
and the. silk trade was temperorarily transferred to "Kobe, but with the
rehabilitation of the northern port the trade hasl been in part recaptured.
The present degression in the silk trade,1 however, due partly to the
economic situation in the U.S.A. and partly to t,h$ competition of rayon, has
had a serious effect upon the port; fortunately it was offset to a great extent
by-the increase in other exports since the abandonment of the Gold Standard
by Japan.
Yokohama is administered by the Municipality, : which . owns the electric
lighting and power plants, the eleotric tramways’ and the gafe and water
supplies.

Not only is Nagoya.'Station an irnportant intejmciliate, station on the

to Osaka-,, passing through Mie .a|Xfj.,tfara Pr.efectutes, and, of the :€huo Tine .
which running through Gifu, Nagano and Yamanashi Brefectures
finally reaches Tokyo. It is thus one of the most important railway centres
in all Japan. Besides these lines there is 'direct connection between the'
station.,and the harbour, in order to link up the transportation by Land and
water. Within . the city limits, besides, Nagoya . Station, There are1 Atsuta,
Chikusa, Ozone, Biwajima,y Hatta, LSkirathri, llbrilawaguchi, and Nagoya
Harbour Stations, inaking nine in all. The numbef of passengers: using these
stations in the course of one year is approximately fifteen millions' while nearly
three million tons of egoods are hahclled.
In addition to ,th se Imperial, Goyernmept, Eaijlways, thereare ,a number
of private'electric railways operating radial lines from the city, putting it
into dose connection with a large number of cities and towns in the neigh-
bourhobd.

Electric Railway, Ship-Mikawa Electric Railway and Nakamura Electric
Railway. These private, lines_ make.: connections between the centre of the-
city and the outlying parts. Light motor-buses are operated on all the prin-
cipal streets, at a uniform fare-of six sen. ■
278 NAGOYA
There are 66 post and telegraph offices throughout the city and for wireless
messages, a despatching station at Yosami, and a receiving station at Yok-
kaichi, both towns near Nagoya, have recently been opened. These stations
are supervised and operated by the Nagoya Central Wireless Telegram Office,
and at these stations communication is maintained with Germany, Poland,
France, and Great Britain. Telephones are a Government Monopoly in
Japan, and are extensively used.
With the remarkable progress made in industry and communications
during the Meiji Era, the conamerce of the city has extended throughout
the Empire. As a distributing and collecting point Nagoya has become
known both at home and abroad, being placed just after Osaka and Tokyo.
In reviewing the movement of goods a number of years ago, it is noticeable
that most of the transportation was by land, and very little by water. But
since the opening of Nagoya Harbour to foreign commerce in 1907, the volume
of goods shipped by water has greatly increased.
In 1933 the total tonnage passing through the harbour was 1,649,324 tons,
while that handled by land amounted to about 2,800,000 tons.
- Commodities that are brought into the city are chiefly raw materials such as
sheep's
iron, etc.wool,while
wheat,
thosecoal, poultryoutfood,
shipped are lumber,
mainly bean
cottoncakes, ginned
fabrics, cotton, beer,
potteries, rice,
rock sugar, glassware, weaving looms, clocks and other manufactured goods.
From early times Nagoya has made remarkable progress, especially in
industrial arts, on account of low wages, and the diligence and special skill
in handicraft of the workers. Following the spirit of the times machinery
has been introduced and factories have largely taken the place of household
industries. The city is fortunate in having at its disposal an abundant
supply of electric power which is indispensable in modern industries. This
fact, together with the facilities for transportion on land and sea, has made
Nayoga the largest industrial centre in Japan next to Osaka.
'Textile head the list of industries, including piece-goods, cotton
yarns, knitted. goods, silk yarns floss-silk, etc. The chemical industry comes
second, including porcelain and pottery, glassware, cement, chemicals, medi-
cal supplies,Thelacquer-ware
manures. food and drinkand lacquered
industriespapier-mache
are third, ware, and artificial
including alcoholic
drinks, cakes and confectionery, flour etc. Miscellaneous industries include
wooden articles, paper goods, stationery,toys, leather goods, Buddhist family
shrines, etc. The fifth industry is machinery, including weaving machines,
pumps, vehicles, cloaks etc. Special industries include steel, castings,,
bronze, coal-gas, etc.
In this part of Japan are a number of rivers which are capable of pro-
ducing an abundant supply of hydro-electric power- Thus, power can be had
in sufficient quantity for all needs, a fact which has contributed greatly to
the development of industries in Nagoya. At present the electric power
used in the city is being supplied by the Toho Electric Power Company, the
Great Consolidated Electric Power Company, the Japan Electric Power
Company, the Hakusan Waterpower Company, and the Yahagi Waterpower
•Company. In addition, the Toho Electric Power Company has in the city
a steam generating plant with a capacity of 83,000 kilowatts, and is installing
water-pow'er plants on the Hida and Tenryu Rivers having a capacity of
420,000 h.p.
The port of Nagoya lies to the south-west within the city limits, and is
situated at the northern extremity of Ise Bay, which opens to the south-west
and is located between thirty-five degrees and thirty-five degrees five minutes
North Latitude, and orie hundred and thirty-six degrees forty minutes and
one hundred and thinty-six degrees fifty-three minutes East iLongitude. As
Chita Peninsula stretches to the south-east, it is protected from the dreaded
HAKODATE £79
typhoons which come from th£ut direction, and the port receives little damage
from wind and wave. The heart of the city is tilosely'connected with the
port by the Harikawa, Shinborikawa, and Nakagawa Canals, and the Rinko
Railway Line.
The construotion of Nagoya Harbour began in 1896.1 Years ago1 the third
stage of the work was completed with an aggregate expenditure
of 15,490,000 yen. The area of the wharves is 1.52 square kilometres, with an
anchoring capacity of 96,000 tons for thirty-eight steamers of ten thousand
tons or-less. At'present the harbour can accommodate 40 vessels with a'total
tonnage of 206,000 tons: Rut in order to meet the requirements of Nagoya and
of mid-Japan which had been making rapid expansion, the fourth stage of the
construction was begun in 1928 at an estimate of 10*120,000 yen. This work
will be completed in 1988, when the area of the wharves will be increased! to
2.23 square kilometres, and the anchoring capacity to 333,000 tons for 66
steamers including 11 ten thousand tonners.
Nagoya. Harbour is an important port of call for many lines, trade
with America, Europe, China, the South Sea Islands, Australia, and Africa,
is carried on directly from : this "port hy thihty-three lines.
The port was opened to foreign trade in 1907, and domestic and foreign
trade have developed with remarkable rapidity.

HAKODATE
This, the most northerly of the old treaty ports of Japan, is situated in
the south of Hokkaido, in the Straits of Tsugaru, which divide that island
from Honshiu. The port lies in latitude 41 deg. 47 min. 8 sec. N., and longi-
tude 140 deg. 45 min. 34 sec. E., and the harbour is nearly land-locked. The
town cluster® at the foot and on the slope of a bold rock known to foreigners
as Hakodate Head, about 1,000 feet in height, wjiich is within a fortified area
to which the public are not admitted. The surrounding country is. hilly,
volcanic, and striking, but the town itself possesses few attractions- There are
•some Public Gardens at the .eastern end of the town which contain a small
but interesting -Museum. Waterworks for supplying the town with pure
water were completed in 1889. The climate of Hakodate is healthy and bracing.
The hottest month is August, but the thermometer there rarely rises above
•90 degrees Fahr. • in the: winter-- it sometimes sinks to 10 degrees Fahr. or
•even less, the minimum in an average winter being about 12 degrees Fahr.
The mean temperature throughout the year is about 48 degrees The popula-
•lation of Hakodate according to the last official Census in October 1930 was
197,252.
The foreign trade of the port is small, but has been steadily;, growing
during the last few years, mainly owing to the development of the Kamtsqhatka
-salmon fisheries, for which Hakodate is the principal entrepot. In the
valuable and extensive fisheries on the coast and in the surrounding seas,
however, the chief exports of the future from Hakodate are to be looked for.
Increasing quantities of dried fish and seaweed are exported annually, mostly
to China. The mineral resources of Yezo are large. Washing-for gold dust
has been carried on in Kit ami, and the belief is entertained that with proper
machinery the gold mines of Hokkaido may be worked with fair profit.
Magnetic iron is also obtained. Qit'resource, is not considered to bp so rich. The
kerosene wealth of this district is said to be considerable, but none of .the borings has
so far given a high yield. At Nukimi-Mura on Soya Strait—in the extreme north—
oil wells were discovered long ago, and have been worked by hand for some years.
The oil, in fact, overflows into the' sea, and in stormy weather boats take ref uge at Nuki-
mi-Murai, as the sea is rendered smooth by the oil. Oil also exists at Nigori-
Kawa, near Hakodate: ap' Kayabegori. near Shiribeshi; at Itaibetsu, on a
tributary of the Urin Kiver (output 800 gallons per day) ; at Kotamimura and
Tsukisama Muraare(Imperial
-where the wells consideredproperty),
i'ieh. near Sapporo; and near Abashiri,
HAKODATE—OTARU 281
Hakodate is reached in 17^ hours from Tokyo, via Aomori, between which
^lace and Hakodate there is a very good steamship service, maintained by the
Government Railways. From Hakodate all the principaF points in Hokkaido
ian now be reached by rail, and there is also a Government Steamship service
to .Odomari, in Karai.uto (Japanese Saghalien). The Hakodate Harbour Im-
provement Works were completed in 1900, and a patent slip capable of taking
vessels up to 1,500 tdhs was also finished. There is a dry dock to accommo-
date ships up to‘10,000 ton's at ordinary spring tides, and at highest spring
tides the dock is capable of receiving the largest battleships in the Japanese
N avy.
In August, 1907, half the city of Hakodate was destroyed by a fire. The
number of houses destroyed in the conflagration was ascertained to be 8,^7'j
rendering about 60,000 persons homeless. All the foreign residents Ttith the
exception of the American Consular Agent were burnt out, saving nothing,
and the total loss was estimated at not less than 50,000,000 yen.
Another disastrous fire occurred on the evening of March 21, 1984 in' the
eastern section of the city during a terrific hurricane,' Three-fifths of the city
were completely burnt out within a few hours, and only-the changed direction
of the wind just before midnight saved the city from being entirely wiped out.
The loss , of lives and property was estimated at nearly 2,000 deaths,
140,000 persons rendered homeless, 25,000 houses destroyed1, and Yen 160,000,000
worth of property.
As a result of these disastrous fires, a scheme is now: in force by which a
Municipal Subsidy is granted to encourage building with fireproof materials.
OTARI}
This pleasantly situated town, 157 miles north of Hakodate, is the; prin-
cipal of the open ports of Hokkaido being of easy access to the rich agricul-
tural lands in the Island, and having convenient railway facilities tp all the
timber bearing areas. The agricultural resources have been considerably
developed, and the rich pasture lands are well adapted for breeding cattle and
horses.; The exports are timber, mostly hardwood, beans peas, onions, potatoes
and general produce. Otaru is a regular port of call of the principal steam-
ship lines trading to the Far East. Extensive harbour improverpents are-now
in course of construction which will give wharfage accommodation for steamers
up to 7,000 tons. The population of Otaru, according to the last census in
October, 1930, -was 144',880. It is the third largest city in the island of Hok-
kaido. There is a small foreign community engaged in the timber or ship-
ping trade. The climate is healthy and bracing, with heavy snow during
the winter which provides ample facilities for skiing and toboganning. The
skiing season lasts from December to March. The waterworks, which supply
pure water to the town, are situated in the surrounding hills within easy
access to the city. The city possesses an efficient fire brigade which keeps in
touch with any part of the town by means of automatic fire alarms. There
is the largest and most up-to-date can-making factory supplying all the
cans to the salmon and crab fishing areas in the northern waters.

and canals that make excellent waterways for the transport of merchandise. |1
F rom the point of view of the foreign tourist, the most interesting
OSAKA 283
and imposing sight is Osaka Castle, erected in 1583 by the famous warrior
Toyotomi Hideyoshi. It is now the Headquarters of the Fourth Army Divi-
sion, the grounds having been converted into a public park.
It is the seat of numerous industries, including cotton-spinning mills,
shipbuilding yards, iron-works and sugar refineries. Cotton-spinning
and weaving are the most important industries and there are a large num-
ber of big mills in the city and neighbourhood. Recently there has been a
surprising development in the manufacture of all kinds of goods for the
export trade in Osaka’s well-equipped factories. The Imperial Mint also is
established here. From the outset the street Electric Tramway within the city
limits was a municipal undertaking and at present 104 kilometres are open
to traffic.
Extensive harbour improvements have been in progress for a number of
years and still further plans are to be given effect to. By 1940 it is expected
that the Osaka North Harbour Co. will have enclosed an additional marine
area of 2,317,000 sq. metres between the Shinyodo River and the Aji River. The
present harbour has berthing accommodation at 29 buoys for ships of 5,000 to
20,000 gross tons. Five piers and six quays, all with shed and railway
facilities, have water depth of 29 ft. or over. Floating and fixed wharf cranes
and dry docks are available.
The trade statistics of Osaka since the war have shown great growth
The Osaka trade returns, however, do not afford a reliable index of the foreign
trade, a great part of which passes through the Kobe Customs.

KOBE
Kobe, finely situated on Osaka Bay and now the fifth largest city in Japan*
was originally, until its opening to foreign trade in the- year’1868, a small
fishing village situated in the 'ncinity of the once important town of Hyogo.
The new port was known at first under the name of Hyogo, its older neigh-
bour, but in 1892 the two towns were united under the name of Kobe City and
are now indistinguishable, while subsequent additipns haye considerably ex-
tended the municipal boundaries. Water supply, electric lighting and tram-
ways are municipal services, and there are numerous lines of motorbuses run
by the city and by a private company. Taxicabs are plentiful and cheap.
Extensive harbour works have been carried out, and there are now available
for foreign-going steamers four large concrete piers, with quays on either
side, owned by the government, together with a number of smaller piers, some
by private concerns, all of these being connected with the main Tokyo-Shi-
monoseki line of railway. Two more large piers,.-onp with a slip in the centre,
are now nearing completion, while large hew piers have' been built for the
domestic trade in Hyogo Bay. There is also an extensive anchorage, protected
by breakwaters. In Hyogo are the Kawasaki and Mitsubishi shipyards, both
equipped vpith all modern facilities., In addition to the.above, Kobe possesses
steelworks, locomotive and carriage works, theDunlop Rubber Company’s
works, a plate and sheet mill, the Nippon Keori'Company’s woollen mill, the
principal mill of the Kanegafuchi cotton spinning company, sugar and flour
mills and also match, chemical and other factories. The city faces the land-
locked bay, and at a distance of'a mile and upwards from the sea front there
rises a chain of steep and picturesque hills, at the foot of which are the re-
sidential districts. To the north-east, a range of hills known as Rokko-zan,
2,500 to 3,000 ft. above sea-level, is rapidly growing in favour as a summer
resort, both among Japanese and Europeans, and more apd more bungalows
are being built. The links of the Kobe Golf Club, which owe their inception
to the enterprise of a small number of former British residents, are a. great
attraction to the resort. Rokkozan is reached by a cablecar, a ropeway and
three motor roads and possesses numerous paths which afford good walks
Two modern hotels offer good accohimodation. Kobe stretches for some ten
miles along the strip of land between the hills and the water and is rapidly
extending on both sides, particularly in the direction of Osaka, with which
it is connected ,by rail and by three electric tramways, as well as by a broad,
well-constructed motor-roa.d. A number of large modern buildings have added
much to the appearance of the city during recent years. Kobe has three main
railway stations—Bannomiya, Kobe and Hyogo, of which the first-named is
the most important for foreign residents—all three being on the main Tokyo-
Shimonoseki through line. There are several clubs—the Kobe Club
(including members of all nationalities’), the Masonic Club, the India Olub,
the Club Concordia (German), and the Kobe Regatta and Athletic Club (inter-
national).

and an up-to-date International Hospital run by the foreign community.
The population of the city of Kobe is given as 853,800 (October, 1934).
Kobe possesses the largest number of foreign residents of any city in Japan.
KOBE 293
The Temple of Nofukuji,. which possesses a large Bronze Budda, is situ-
-ated in the old town of Hyogo, and is worth a .visit; and there is a monument
to the Japanese: hero Kiyomori, erected in 1286, in a grove of trees Tn the
vicinity of the temple, which claims some attention from its historic asso-
ciations. The bed of the old river Minatogawa was reclaimed in 19l0. The
upper part of the reclaimed area is now known as MinatogSwa Park, where
there is a City HaB* behind which is a large market. The lower part pf the
river-bed is, a centre for public entertainments, such as theatres, cinemato-
graphs, etc. The shrine dedicated to Kusunoki Masashige, who fell on this
spot in 1336 during the unsuccessful wars for the restoration of the Mikado’s
power, stands: between Kobe Station and the Okurayama Park,,, where there
is also, a large City Xibrary. In the park stands a bronze,'statue of the late
Prince ltd, who was one of the most influential and powerful statesmen of
Japan in the Meiji period.

MOJI AND SHIMONOSEKI
These two towns are situated on either side of Shimonbseki Straits,' the
•western entrance of the tiiland Sea—Moji with a population of, 1,08,0^) pn^ the
•south arid Shimohpseki' with a population of 6&,Oi&0 on the north. Shimoho-
seki is under the jurisdiction of Yamagpchi (population i00!0(>0)y 5J. miles
away, and Moji under that, of Fukuoka (population 234,000), 47 mile? aw:ay.
The foreign merchants formerly all had their offices in Sh imonoseki;, but
owing to the very rapid growth of Moji during the last 29 years, due mainly
to its becoming an important, noal centr|e, most of the foreign and Japanese
main and local branch offices have removed to Moji. The city hah now hne
roads, and commercial buildings The head office of the Kyushu section of
the Railway Bureau at Moji controls also part 'of the. mhinland, and the'eight

town of Dair-i (on. the West side), where thjern are • now many.- factories and
some foreigners’ offices. There, is ,a fairly strong . tidal, current through the
Straits,, hut/the. anchorage, which is at Moji, is only affected by an. eddy,
and good holding ground is general. S|teamers entering from the West can
get pilots at Itokuren Light, where boats have to stop in any case for medical
inspection and harbour-master’s instructions. From the eastward this inspec-
tion takes place at Hesaki Light. Means of transport are good. Liners run
regularly to all foreign prdinafy ports of call; and, while from Shimomoseki
the Sanyo Railway taps the north, from Moji the Kiushiu Railway (taps’the
south of Japan The Shimbnoseki Station Hotel provides good accorttmoda-
tion for foreigners. The Imperial Railway Department has also four layge ferry
boats plying between Moji and the ShimonoSeki Station, while a tfen-niinpte
ferry plies between the usual landing places at Moji and ShirhOnoseki. There
was a project on foot to construct a tunnel under the Straits. Howeve’r, this
has been abandoned and a scheme faf bridging the. Straits ,is pow on. foot,
and the work may be started iii 1934 if tests are satisfactory.
Both towns have municipal waterworks, are lit by electricity, and are con-
nected by telephone with the principal towns, from Kagoshima and Nagasaki,
in the south, to Tokyo in the north-east. It should be specially noted that
photographing-, and .sketching are forbidden within a radius of . tpm miles

Kyushu is the southernmost of the larger islands forming the Japanese
archipelago and occupies an area of some 15,000 square miles. It is the centre
of the coal mining industry. The principal citjes are Moji, Kokura (pop.
88,000) and Wakamatsu (pop, 57;326) on the' north; Fukuoka (Pop. 228,290),
with which is included the pout of Hakata, and Nagasaki on the west; and
Kagoshima (pop. 137,232) on the "south. On the east coast lies the favourite
watering place of Beppu (pop. 43,076). The island is' encircled with rail-
ways, with some breaks, but the centre is still unopened to railway traffic.

NAGASAKI
At the end of the sixteenth century, when the nations of Western Euronej
were vigorously competing for the trade of the Far East, Nagasaki—then a.
fishing village—was set aside by the Japanese authorities as a place of foreign
residence. It speedily became the chief trading port of the country. When
the Christian religion was banned in 1637 and only the Dutch were allowed'
trade privileges, a small island in Nagasaki harbour called Deshima was^
allotted to the Dutch merchants as a trading station and place of residence.
During the persecution which culminated in the expulsion from Japan of
foreign Christian priests, the city was the centre of the anti-Christian opera-
tions conducted by the Japanese government. By the treaty of 1858 Nagasaki
was one of the ports opened to British trade on the 1st of July in the follow-
ing year.
0n entering the harbour of Nagasaki no stranger can fail tp, be struck with-
the admirable situation of the town and the beautiful panorama of hilly
scenery ppehed to his view. The harbour is a land-lockecj inlet deeply in-
dented with small bays, about three miles Ipng with a width, varying from haif-
a-mile to a mile. A reclamation scheme MTas commenced in October, 1897, and
completed in January, 1905; 147 acres were teciaimed, and, retaining wails
measuring nearly five miles in length have been built in front of what were
formerly the foreign concessions at Deshima and Megasaki. Simultaneously,
the harbour was deepened. The cost of the wiork was 4,000,000 yen. A wharf
to accommodate two vessels of 8,000 tons has been constructed by the muni-
cipality and is used by the vessels engaged in the express service between
Shanghai and Kobe. The town is .on the eastern side of the harbour and the
foreign quarter is on the south-east. The foreign consulates and chief mer-
cantile houses are situated on the bund facing the harbour, behind which are
a few streets running parallel with it, and there are a number of private
residences on the Nill-side. There is a Roman Catholic cathedral and ,two large
parish churches; Anglican and Nonconformist services for foreigners are; held
on alternate Sundays at. the Seamen’s Home. There are two clubs (Naga-
saki and International), and one ‘foreign hofol, the Hotel du Japon. The
Mitsubishi Company own three docks in Nagasaki, the largest of which has
a length of 714 feet on the keel, blocks and a depth of water at ordinary
spring tides of 34 feet 6 inches. As a shipbuilding centre the place has
rapidly developed in recent years; in addition! to large ocean-goirig passeriger
and freight steamers, a battle-cruiser of 27,500 tbns displacement and a battle-
ship of over 30,000 tons displacement have been constructed there. Nagasaki
gained considerable importance as a base for steam trawlers, but the vessels
were all sold to foreign governments fqr war service during 1918, The in-
dustry has been restarted, on a smaller scale but most of the trawlers now
use Shimonoseki as a base.! . The Municipality has erected a large fish market
on a wharf near the railway station. Four reservoirs supply .the cify wifh
water. The railway development; of recent years has made it possible, with
a brief sea passage of ten minut.es between Moji and Shimonoseki, to travel,
by rail from Nagasaki to Tokyo, via Kobe, in 24 hours. The climate of Na-
gasaki is mild and salubrious, and there are popular health resorts
in the neighbourhood, the most famous being Mount Unzen, on which a nine-
hole golf course was laid out in 1911, and which, since 1923, has been gradually
improved; another course has been laid out at Isahaya,: a small town about one
hour by rail or motor-car from Nagasaki.

FORMOSA
This island, one of the largest in Asia, is situated between latitude' 2Sf aind
26 degrees X., and longitude 120 and 122 degrees :E., and is separated from
the‘(coast :bf Fukien, Jyhina, by a channel about one hundred miles in width.
It is a prolongation of the Japanese and Lodchoo Archipelagoes, and in 1895
was incorporated m the Japanese Empire. 'Its 'name Formosa, signifying1
“Beautiful island,” was conferred by the Portuguese, the first Europeans to
visit it, but it was called Taiwan (Oread. Bay) by the1 Chinese, to vvh6m it
belonged from 1661 to 1894. It is said that the Japanese endeavoured to
form a colony in the island in 1620, but large numbers of 'Chinese were settled
there prior to that date. The Dutch arrived1 in 1634, and founded several
settlements, and traces of their occupation are still to he found in the island,
but they were compelled in 1661 to retire by the Chinese pirate chief Koxinga,
who then assumed the sovereignty of western Formosa. His grandson and
successor, however, was induced, twenty-two years later, to resign the crown
to‘s the Emperor'of China. By the Treaty of Shimonoseki, which terminated
the war between China and Japan in 1895, the - island was ceded
to Japan as one of the, conditions of peace, and on the 1st June, 1895,
the formal surrender was made, the ceremony taking place on board ship
outside iKeelung. The resident Chinese officials, however, declared a republic,
aad offered resistance, and it was n,ot until the end of October that the oppos-
ing forces were completely overcome, the last stand being made in the south
by Liu Yung-fu, the Black Flag General, of Tonkin notoriety. Takow was
bombarded and captured on 15th October, and Anping was peacefully occupied
on the 21st of the same month, Liu Yung-fu "having taken refuge in - flight,.
Formosa is about 260 miles in length, and from 60 to 70 miles broad in
the widest part. It is intersected from north to south by a range of mountains,
which forms a kind of backbone to the island, idle loftiest peak of which,
Mount Morrison (Niitakayama), is 13,880 feet high. On the western side of
this range the slope is more gradual than on the eastern .side, ,g,nd broken
by fertile valleys which lose themselves in the large undulating plain on which
the Chinese are settled. The high land cast of the. dividing chain is peopled
by an. aboriginal race who, .acknowledge no allegiance to the phinese: Govern-
ment and made frequent; raids upon the .outlying Chinese settlements, but
as the island is .being steadily opened up, conditions are improving, and
doubtless in course of time they will become merged in the general popula-
tion, although naturally a savage and warlike people, allied, to the. Malays
and Polyneisians, who lived principally by the chase.

The products of Formosa are 'numerous, vegetation being everywhere most
luxuriant, 'testifying tb the ' richness, of the s?oil. Tea,: cam'phoi,' rice1 sugar
and bananas are largely cultivated, the three latter being extensively shipped
to Japan. The fauna includes bears, monkeys, deer, wild boar, badgers,
martens, the scaly ant-eater and other smaller animals. Birds are not very
numerous, and snakes not as common as might be expected where vegetation
is so abundant. As regards minerals there are at present only two gold mines
running {viz., those at Kinkasaki and Zuiho in the vicinity of Keelung), and
the production of both Gold and Silver in Taiwan has decreased, as they are
being shipped to Japan in the form of Ores- The island has an area of about

J3,883 square miles of which more than half is mountain, but nevertheless 21.5

farmers.

the island are steadily

and
Dairen, whilst recently attention has been directed to the gathering of coral,
supplies of which have been found in the waters of the northern vicinity. All
the principal towns are now equipped with water-works, elect-ric lighting,
and large markets, etc., and connection between them by motor lines of cars
is becoming general, replacing the push cars hitherto mainly in use.
One great drawback to the island is its lack of good harbours, which is
more especially felt on account of the strength of the monsoons in the Formosa
Channel. Those on the eastern side are few and neither commodious nor
accessible; v'hilst on the west coast, with the exception of Keelung in the
north and Takow in the south, they are little better than open roadsteads.

Taipeh is the capital'of Formosa, and Tainan is ihe chief city in the
south of the Island. The open ports are four in number, viz., Takow and
Anping in the south, and Tamsui and Keelung in the north. The latter was
held for some months in 1884-5 by the French, under Admiral Courbet, but was
evacuated on- June 21st 1885. The rivers of Formosa are few, shallow,
and winding, only navigable to small flat-bottomed boats. The scenery is
delightful, and the climate is very pleasant in the wunter, but hot in some
parts of the island.
A complete system of post and telegraph services is in force while two
cables connect the island with Japan proper.
A railway traversing the west sidfe of the island, from Keelung in the
north to Keishu in the south was officially opened by H.I.H. Prince Kan-
in on October 2tth, 1908. A short line also connects Taipeh and Tamsui in
the north. On the west coast is a loop line of 56^ miles between Chikunan
and Oden (near Shoka) Hugging the coast, as it does, it avoids the steep
gradients and numerous tunnels of the main line. On the through-line, sleep-
ing-cars are now run for the accommodation of first and second class passengers.
There is also a railway along the East coast, and some other minor lines
partially completed. Besides the Government lines there are 1,349 miles of
private railways laid by sugar companies.

is situated on the north side of the river, about two miles from the bar. In October, called Kobe,
1884, the French ships under Admiral Courbet bombarded Tamsui, but were unable to
take the place. The Japanese took possession on the 7th June, 1805.
The port of Keelung lies to the north-east of Tamsui, in latitude' 25 deg.
6 min. N. and longitude 121 deg. 47 min. E, It is situated on the shores of
a bay between the capes of Fold and Peton, some 20 miles apart, amidst bold
and striking scenery,. backed by a range of mountains. It was once a Spanish
Settlement, but was subsequently captured and held by the Dutch until they
in turn gave place to the Chinese under Koxinga, formerly a pirate chief,
who'caused himself to be proclaimed King of Formosa. Though but a mere
village, it had long carried on a considerable native trade with Amoy, Chin-
chew, and Foochow. Keelung was opened to foreign trade at the same time
as the other Formosan ports. The limits of the port are defined to be within
.a straight line drawn from Image Point to Bush Island. On the 5th August,
1884, the port was bombarded by the French under Admiral Lespes, when the
Torts above the town were reduced to ruins, and the place captured. It was
then garrisoned by the French, wjh had been signed at Tientsin in Jiine, il885. The place was occupied by the
Japanese on the 3rd June, 1895.
At Keelung harbour improvements were; completed in 1930 at a cost of
over 25 million Yen, and have largely increased the accommodation available.
During 1900 a lighthouse was completed bn Pak-sa, Point, a low headland
on the west coast, some 20 mfles, south-west of Tamsui, and one has been
-erected on Agincourt Island. At Keeluhg there are stone quays in connection

The railway line betw'een Tamsui and Taipeh was Opened in August, 1901,
and has been of great benefit to the people of the district. Keelung is the
northern terminus of the frah^Formosan Government Railway. The capital
■ city is known by the Chinese name of ■Taipeh, and also' under the Japanese
nomenclatuFe of Taihoku, which is now applicable, also, to the whole district,

TAINAN, TAKAO AND ANPING
The city of Tainan (until 1889 known as Taiwanfu or Taiwanfoo
i.e. The capital of Taiwan) situated in lat. 23 deg. 6 min. N., and long.,
129 deg. 5 min. E., is the oldest city in Formosa. For nearly two cen-
turies it was the capital under the Chinese regime; prior to that
P had been held by both the Dutch and Koxinga, and relics of the-
former’s occupation still exist. Next to Taipeh, it is the principal city, ana
in it the District Garrison Headquarters, Law Courts, Hospital, Higher
Schools, etc., are located. Since the Japanese occupation many improvements
in the city have been made, and at the present day the main roads are all
wide and well constructed. The old Chinese walls, some five miles in circum-
ference*. have been demolished to make room for improvements.
Waterworks have been constructed in the hills some distance from the-
city and it is now lighted by electricity, the power being carried by an over-
head line from a generating station a few miles south of Takow. Tainan is
distant 218 miles from Taipeh by rail.
Anping is the shipping port for Tainan, situated about shree miles west
of that city on the border of a lagoon. Communication is by a trolley
line and! a creek navigable for chutehs and small junks. There is also
a road' on which is a regular service of motor buses. The 1 port itself
is an open roadstead, vessels anchoring outside the bar and a mile or
so from the beach. From November to the end of May the anchorage is a
good one, but during the S. W. moonsbon a heavy swell sets in, rendering
it difficult and sometimes impossible for vessels to load or discharge. Form-
erly Anping was a small but thriving port, but since the 1 improvements to
Takao harbour were effected, its importance has materially declined, and it
is now almost deserted, though its proximity to Tainan still necessitates a
certain amount of shipping calling. As regards climate, Anping, during the
summer months, can boast of a comparatively cool temperature owing to-sea
breezes ; Tainan is usually two or three degrees warmer. From October to the-
end of April there is little or no rain,and the cool weather then leaves noth-
ing to be desired.

Takao is the only harbour in the south catering for the: bulk of the sugar
trade and other industries, its future is assured. ..Large reclamations have-
been made along the shore of the lagoon, transforming marsh-land into a well
laid-oqt, fair-sized tpwn, with room for expansion.
TAINAN, TAKAO AND ANTING 320
Foreign shipping is largely increasing in volume, sulphate of ammonia
•and other fertilisers now being imported in considerable quantities. The
Japanese Government grants subsidies to the Osaka Shosen Kaisha for a fort-
nightly service with Canton, via, Amoy, Swatbw and Hutung, and Hongkong
via Amoy and Swatow, as well-as for a service of steamers round the coast of
Formosa throughout the year. As regards the fruit trade, which is mainly
a southern industry, an arrangement has recently been arrived at between
shippers and the principal lines running from Takao, that ship-
ments will in future be made by steamer direct from that port,
instead of from Keelung, as hitherto. Another development of southern trade
that is being fostered is the fishing industry, in connection with which direct
boats to Japan are now being fun.
The Government Railway now runs day and night trains between Keelung and
Takao, the length of which line is approximately 246 miles. There are many

The import trade is mainly in the hands of Japanese firms, the only item still in

ernment has given every encouragement to the sugar industry, and many
large modern mills have been erected during the past few years. Of the six
staple industries of Formosa, opium, camphor and salt, tobacco and wines
have been monopolised by the Formosan Government.

CHOSEN (KOREA)
Chosen (“Morning Calm”)', by peaqeful. annexation in August 1910 became
an integral part of the Japanese Empire. It is a peninsula extending south-

on the west by the Yellow Sea. To the north He Manchuria and the Russian

has
a coast-line of some 5,400 ,miles, including its innumerable islands, of which
Quelpart is the'largest. It,is situated between 124° 11' and 130° .56’ E long,
and between 33° 06' and 43° N lat., its total length being 600 miles from,
north to south, and greatest breadth'135 miles from east to west, with an area
of: about 85,156 square miles. The .eastern half of the peninsula is a sinuous
range of mountains of which weste|rh Korea is the slope, and the"chief rivers
are therefore on the western side, most of the important harbours being sit-
uated on that coast. Chosen is divided into thirteen provinces, (do) :—North
and South Kankyo (Hamheung), North and South Heian (Pyeng'-an), iKokai
(Hwang-hai), Kogen (Kang-won), Kejki (Kyong-ki) North and South Chusei
(Chung-Chong), North and South Keisho (Kyong-sang) and North and South
Zenra (Cholla). The climate is continental, but healthy. Cold and heat waves
run to the extreme, and especially is the cold severe in the north. Spring and
Autumn are short, and the variation in temperature between day and night
is very sharp, reaching 25 degrees in some places in the north. The fauna
includes tigers, leopards, wild deer, wild hogs, and monkeys in the south,
and the pheasant, eagle, falcon,, crane and stork are common. A stunted breed
of native horses exists and immense numbers of oxen are raised both as draught
animals

as other livestock, and to the raising of swine and poultry. Much of 'the soil
is fertile, and agriculture has considerably advanced under the Japanese re-
gime, with improved methods of cultivation, in the selection of seeds and

tries with a great future. both for Korea and Japan. There are extensive
forests in the north, and gold, copper, iron, .coal and bther minerals are
distributed throughout the country, gold-mines being worked by British,
American and French syndicates, and a number of placer and other mines by
natives and by Japanese. The principal exports are rice, bseans, silk,- fish-
oil and manure, iron and iron ore, raw cotton, livestock and hides. Manu-
facture is still very small, but grows yearly, and includes cotton yarn, silk-
reeling, sugar, paper, artificial fertilisers, cement and flour. The greater part
of the sea-borne trade is carried by Japanese bottoms. Great development are
taking place along the North East Coast, where large new harbours are being
constructed at Seishin, Rashin and. Yuki. The railways in this district are
now under the control of the South Manchuria Railway Co., and a large
trade between Japan and Manchuria is expected through these ports in, the
future.
CHOSEN—(KOREA) 331
Opinions differ as to the exact origin of the Koreans. Their language
belongs to the “Turanian” group, and is more akin to Japanese than to any
other tongue, especially in grammatical construction, though in pronunciation
and vocabulary there are great differences. Chosen was once a greatly ad-
vanced nation, from which the Japanese learned many arts and crafts, and
indeed the rudiments of the ancient Chinese civilisation, but she seems never
to have enjoyed any political importance. Situated between China in the
west and Japan in the east, her rulers seem ever to have been involved in
intrigue and scheming to keep in with the stronger party. For centuries she
paid tribute to Peking,, while preserving a nominal independence and pur-
suing a policy of exclusion to all foreigners other than Chinese. After the
Meiji Restoration in Japan, the Japanese were anxious to break down this
exclusive: barrier, and in 1876 succeeded in entering into a treaty of amity
and commerce. Although China assented to this and to subsequent treaties
with other foreign powers (with America, 1882; with Britain, 1883; with Ger-
many and Russia, 1884, etc.), thus acknowledging Chosen’s complete indepen-
dence,

The task before Japan when she took over the reins of government w^is no-
mean one*1 but she tackled it with characteristic energy, and already mrich
has been achieved. She has established a well-organised judicial, system, with
trained judges, and the WOfk of codifying laws proceeds apace. By a series
of progressive steps, local self-government has poty been established. In July,
1920, advisory bodies, in the form of Provincial, Municipal and Urban and
Rural (District Councils. Were created, an'd in Decefnber, 1930, an Ordinance
was published transforming;' within welbdeflried limits,' these 'Cbuncils into:
self-governing bodies. The first, elections' ririder the new system for the Muni
cipal and Urban District 'Corincils Were held in May, 1931. Reform of the
financial administration has hedeived a great deal of attention. In 1919 for
the first time ho subsidy was heeded ffdHi the Imperial Goyernmeht, but. in ,
subsequent years owing to various administrative reforms it has been necessary
for an Imperial grant to be made, usually of about Yen 15,000,000, which

was the sum in ;1939. In the siphei,e,'Oi educ.aL.tiou-, jfoUowing on the- establish-
ment of elementary schools on Japanese lines throughout the country, consi-
derable advance has been made in the development of higher education,- cul-
minating in the opening.'of the Imperial University in Seoul in ,1928. In the
way -of communications, much has been done in ipfoviding telegraphic and
telephonic communication on modern lines, and highways now connect village
with village and town with town, the best roads being in the South. A net-
work of railways around the country is steadily moving towards completion.
First class roads are 24 feet wide, connecting the capital with the provincial
governments, second class roads are 18 feet wide, and run between the pro-
vincial governments and the ports and prefectural magistracies. The total
length of roads at the end of 1934, was 13,507 miles (first and second class, 7,081 miles;
third class, 6,426 miles, cart tracks are not included in this last figure). The total
length of railways at the end.of 1934 was 1,923 miles of Government Railway and 780

about thirty-five miles from the mouth of the river Han, which, since
the inclusion of the suburb of Ryuzan within the city limits, has become

of varying height, averaging about twenty feet, with arched stone bridges
spanning the water-course. Thb crumbling remains of these walls still cling
picturesquely to the hills at various points Outside the city, and two of the
largest gates, the South Big Gate (Nandaimon) and the East Big Gate (To-
daimon) have been preserved as monuments in situ. The modern city has-
overflowed to the river for over two miles beyond Nandaimon, Seoul Station,
the Severance Medical Missionary Hospital and an increasingly busy section
of the town lying south of this former boundary. The old city was divided’
into two nearly equal portions by a long main Street (the modern Shoro),
running east and west, the King’s Palace and more important public build-

widened and improved, the present Nandaimon-dori being a fine highway
nearly 129 feet wide. The principal thoroughfare of the city now is the great

the roads, public buildings and shops can bear favourable comparison with
any of the great towns of Japan proper. Many other roads have been made
and widened in different parts of the city, particularly in the vicinity of the
new Imperial University, which lies in the. north-east and was opened in May,
1926. The work of town-planning, the making of parks andtso- forth, is pur-
sued regularly each year, though somewhat hampered at present by lack of
funds. Lastly, mention must be made of the steep . hill pf Nansan, which

remainder of the year, as without some of these members it was impossible to
form a quorum in either House. Altogether 313 members were expelled, and
the party was suppressed as a seditious organisation throughout the country.
Notwithstanding these drastic measures the President continued to proclaim
his faith in the future of China under a Republican form of government. His
views were aptly summed up in his own phrase: “The nurse must not provide j
the infant with food only fit for adults.” Thus it was that China became
for a period of two years an autocracy under the guise of a Republic. A State 1
-Cotincil, consisting, of 70 members, replaced the suppressed Parliament. It was I
supposed to act as an advisory, administrative and legislative, organ until the !|
formation of the new Parliament under the Constitutional Compact, but its
chief function was to give a veneer of legality to the policy of the President.
All it did was to. endorse his every action, even to the mad Monarchy Move- |
ment.
The sudden death of Yuan Shih-kai and the collapse of the ill-starred
attempt to restore the monarchical form of Government revived Republicanism.
LiT Yuan-hung, on the death of Yuan Shih-kai, quietly became President. He
w as officially confirmed in the appointment by a re-assembly of the first Parlia-
ment,. The Cabinet was soon afterwards approved by Parliament, and a con-
stitution was drafted which was disliked by the Premier and the military
chiefs by reason of the fact that it placed all authority in the hands of Par-
liament. This led to a rupture which resulted in Li Yuan-hung being com-
pelled to dissolve Parliament at the instigation of the militarists. Then fol-
lowed, in 1916, Chang Hsun’s mad attempt to restore the Manchu Dynasty.
He was over-thrown by Marshal Tuan Chi-jui after which Feng Kuo-chaug,
the Vice-President assumed the Presidency as Li Yuan-hung declined to com-
plete his term. The second election of a President took place in October, 1918,
when Hsu Shih-chang was unanimously chosen. He retired in June, 1922, and
Li Yuan-hung w^as induced to return as acting President by promises of support
for his programme of reform from the Tuchuns. Twelve months later, however*
he fled from Peking owdng to pressure exerted by the militarists. He was
succeeded by Marshal Tsao Kun, who was elected on October 5th, 1923, by a
Parliament, the members of which were openly bribed to vote for him. He
was driven out of the Presidential chair in November, 1923, on the collapse
of Wu Pei-fu’s forces, owing to the defection of Feng Yu-hsiang, who utilised
his troops to seize-the capital instead of marching to Jehol to outflank the
forces of Chang Tso-lin. Tuan Chi-jui was then invited by most of the leading
military and civil leaders to become the Provisional Chief Executive and
accepted. For the next three years there was no Government worthy of the
name in China. Marshal Chang Tso-lin was virtual dictator in Peping, hut
North and iSouth were at war and the whole country was in a state of chaos
owing to the rival claims of many military leaders. In June, 1928, Peiping
was captured by the Nationalists, and in October—on the anniversary of the
Revolution—Chiang Kai-shek was proclaimed President of the Republic. In
January, 1929, the Nationalist flag was hoisted at Mukden and other important
centres, signifying that the Northerners had at last decided to co-operate with
their former enemies in the South. Nanking is now the capital of China.

agreed to. Towards the end of 1919 Outer Mongolia petitioned to return to the
authority of Peiping. The petition was granted, and the several treaties with Russia
were abrogated. Conditions in Outer Mongolia, however, have been by no
means stabilised by the ostensible return of Mongolia to China's fold. The
invasion of Baron Ungern von Sternberg with an anti-Bolshevik army in Feb-
ruary, 1921, caused the intervention of Soviet Russia, whose troops, having
dislodged Ungern’s men, entered into possession of Urga, the capital of Mon-
golia, and the Territory stretching up to the Russian frontier. Inner Mon-
golia has been formed into three special administrative districts, viz., Jehoi,
Chahar and Suiyuan. Manchuria or Manchukuo as she is now sometimes
called has in recent years, been steadily and rapidly colonised by Japanese,
who greatly outnumber the Manchus in their own land. In 1932, she asserted
her independence, under Japanese protection, but so far she has not been re-
cognised by any other Nations with the exception of San Salvador. Tibet—
which is alsb practically a dependency of China and whose actual status is.
still an outstanding question between Great Britain and China—has an areal
of 643,734 square miles and a population of over 6,000,000. Down to ; 1910 it'

ping, which maintains a Resident at Lhassa. In consequence, however, of the
Dalai Lama’s refusal to comply with the demands' of Peiping, a Chinese’
military expedition was dispatched to Lhassa, and he fled to India, where he,

In his review of the trade foi*'19S4, Mr. H. ‘C. MacEtvan, the'officiating
Statistical Secretary of the.Chinese Maritime Customs, v.:rites:— 1 Value of Trade
The two tables' that follow 'show, respectively, the value of China’s
foreign trade for the years 1930 to 1934 as published in the Returns (the figures,
where necessary, being reduced to terms of the new Chinese silver dollar
currency introduced in. 1933) and the value of that trade for the same four
years after deduction of the figures for the Manchurian account with foreign
countries during, the years 1930 to 1932. In. explanation of the necessity for.
, giving these two separate tables, it may be as well to repeat here that it was
during the latter year that China lost Control of the section of her foreign trade
conducted through the ports in Manchuria, including the great port of Dairen
in that part of Manchuria known as the Kwangtung Leased Territory. The
first table, therefore, is a record of the whole value of the foreign trade con-
trolled by the National Government during the years in question, while the
second table gives comparable data for a study of the trend of trade in the
portion of China now actually controlled by the Government.

At the end of the Great War, as is well known, there was a widespread
shortage of foodstuffs and raw materials such as China supplies, and, because
of this shortage, world production started to increase. This increase in
production was accompanied by a growth in prosperity, culminating after certain
vicissitudes, in the boom years for international commerce of 1925 to 1929,
after which came the downward trend (due. in part, to the very growth in production
that was the original cause of the unusual prosperity) leading to the greatest
depression in trade that the world has ever known. In this connexion, it is
generally held that the depression did nbt begin to affect China until the-end
of 1931 or the beginning of 15132. However that may be, it Can be
•seen that the declirie which has ; taken place since. 1,929 . is sufficiently
serious, rind, even if it be acknowledged that present comparisons are-ajit to
CHINA A5
look worse in face of the unusually large ^fejitistics recorded for the boom years,
little real comfort can be derived from the fact that the import trade is still
greater than it was up to the year 1920 or from the fact that the export trade
still compares well enough! with that for the period 1910 to 1918.
A noticeable fact brought out by the year’s figures, perhaps the only one
to induce at least a restrained feeling of optimism as to the, future, was the
further decline in the adverse balance of the merchandise account. The worst
balance ever recorded for the country (minus the Manchurian Account): was
that shown for 1931 in Table II above; but, from this maximum of $1;087
million, it will be seen that successive annual reductions of $132 million, $222
million, and $238 million have been recorded. In other words, the passive
balance has been reduced by more than, half over a period of only three years.
Whether this reflects the restrictive effect on imports of the higher tariffs, the
limiting effects of poverty, or both, the resultant improvement in the account
represents a theoretical enrichment of the country to the extent of the amount
saved on balance over the period in question. Although the disparity between
imports and exports during the year under review is shown in the table as
$495 million, properly speaking this gap should be reduced by the' following
amounts: $24.7 million of export duty, which should be added to the outward
statistics to obtain the true f.o.b. value of the export trade; a further $51.6
million for the value of the recorded net exports of gold, this metal being
used in this country merely as a commodity ; and, probably, by a large
proportion of the suspiciously regarded exports of gold from Hongkong,
valued for the year under comment at Hongkong $69.9 million (the colony
records imports of gold amounting to only $13.7 million from countries other
than China, and none from China itself).

the foregoing remarks.The
Actually, in its capacity as a transhipment centre, this colony as usual took
more of the export trade than any of the other countries mentioned. In
view of the’23 per cent. ■ dedine: recorded for the value of the whole inward
trade of the country, it is .not -surprising ■, to find decreases-ifor the inward
trade, recorded also against almost every individual country listed: in the
table. The percentage column, therefore, is more informative in many re-
spects; than the. value column, as it discounts this general decline in the
volume, of importations and reveals exactly any alteration in the share taken
by any particular country in comparison with the preceding year. There
are few changes on the import side of the table that seem important enough
to call for special comment. As exceptions, attention may be drawn in the
first place to the great disparity between the 1933 and the 1934- statistics for
Australia. The deficit of $74.8 million in this case clearly is more than ac-
counted for by a $66.7 million drop in the value of the wheat import plus a
drop of another $9.8 million in the value of the wheat flour imports from that
country. It may be noted here that China’s total purchases of wheat fell
from a value of $87.9 million in 1933 to $32 million in 1934, aaid that of the
latter total 20.8 million dollars’ worth came from the United1 ^States in ful-
filment, for the most part, of the Wheat and Cotton Loan Agreement of 1933.
Incidentally, these wheat purchases were a clear ! gain to the account of the
United States of America, from which country only a negligible quantity
weighing 500 quintals was imported in 1933 against 8.4 million quintals
from Australia. In addition to the remarks on these two accounts, it may
be noted that, largely due to Government action in suppressing the Anti-
Japanese Boycott Associations throughout the country, Japan increased her
share of the import trade by oirer 26 per cent, and dispossessed Great Britain
from second place in the list of suppliers of this country’s; needs.
As regards the export side of the table, it may be noted that there are
only eight countries (excluding the British colony of Hongkong) that take
more than they give to China, and that France is no longer one of these.

The value of the iihport trade declined by 23.4 per cent.,; the comparative
figures for 1933 and 1934 being respectively $1,345 million and $1,030 million.
Table III in the article “Value of Trade” supplies data for making any
further comparisons with the annual trading results during the past quarter
of a century ; and the introductory chapter to this report covers at least the
outstanding national and international trading features of the year under
review, including mention of the latest tariff modifications introduced in this
country. To show T this section of trade in outline, therefore, it will be sufficient
to present here tw o additional tables of. a general nature. The first of these
tables displays comparative statistics for the year 1933 and 1934 arranged
according to the main groupings used in the “Monthly Returns of the Foreign
Trade of China” and further arranged according to the order of importance
assumed by these groupings during the year under rhview.

, The value of the export trade fell from $612 million in 1933 In $535 million
in the year under review, a total which is exactly half of that registered in
1929 as a record for the post-war boom in the outward trade. It should be
noted, however, that the figures for 1929 were indeed an all-time record
established just before the tragic depression in world gonunerce pet in, and
it would be a great mistake, therefore, to regard the above results as being
due entirely or even chiefly to disabilities inherent in this country’s internal
situation, as the poor showing made by the figures for 1934 cannot be dissociated
from the difficulties of an economic situation universally existent .at the present
time. In the absence of any appreciable improvement in the international
trade of the rest of the world, China’s quantitative statistic? for the year are
quite impressive, and the slightly lower value statistics are no indication that
the country is failing to adjust itself to the changed conditions under which
trade has to be conducted to-day, rather the reverse. It is on the present
highly competitive price-level that results quoted according to value should
be judged, and it is not with past records for this country,, but with the
•disappointing outcome of the year’s international commerce) in the rest of the
world that they should be compared.
CHINA
The outward trade was greatly assisted by the general reduction in the
Export Tariff rates referred to in the introduction to this report; and another
favourable factor was the unusually strong demand for certain produce owing,
to the failure of similar or cotrelated crops abroad, particularly oil seeds and
foodstuffs for cattle. On the other hand, this section of trade was handicapped
by the great drought in China, financial stringency caused by the exodus of
silver towards the end of the year, and certain other internal troubles. f rom
which the country has not yet had time to recover.

Shipping and Freight in 1934.
The following statistics for the years 1932-34, taken from the British
‘Board of Trade Journal” and the London “Economist,” indicate a recovery
in the shipbuilding industry thoughout the world and an increase in traffic
through the Suez and Panama Canals: —

Million Tons. Million Tons Million Tom
Mercantile shipping launched ... •... .. 0.7 0.5 1.0
Mercantile shipping under construction... 0.8 0.8 1.3
Mercantile shipping using Suez Canal ... 27.2 29.4 30.6
Mercantile shipping using Panama Canal 22.6 25.3 29.0
As compared with the figures for 1933, therefore, there was a 100 per cent,
increase in new tonnage launched, a 63 per cent, increase in tonnage under
construction at the end of the year under review, a 4 per cent, increase in
tonnage using the Suez Canal, and a 15 per cent, increase in the tonnage using
the Panama Canal. As regards the statistical position of world shipping, a
reduction of 4J million tons in available shipping has been recorded for the
period June 1931 to June 1934, but, as laid-up shipping has been reduced from
14| million to 7 million tons during that period, mercantile shipping now in
commission actually shows an increase of 3 million tons during the last three
years. As it is claimed that a 50 per cent, reduction in fuel costs can be
achieved for modern ships as compared with vessels constructed eight or ten
years ago, there is no doubt that the recovery in shipbuilding indicated by the
above-quoted statistics speaks well for the future of the shipping industry, but,
in the meanwhile, it also would appear that the present statistical position
of the carrying trade has been weakened by an increase in world tonnage
incommensurate with the increase which has taken place in world trade in
merchandise, and that any improvement in traffic statistics such as those shown
above for vessels using the Suez and Panama Canals, therefore, is more likely
to betoken greater competition than a healthy increase in the quantity of cargo
offering. With regard to the particular figures quoted above for the tonnage
of 'vessfels using the Suez Canal, however, it is noteworthy that the total trade
in merchandise of the Straits Settlements increased in valtie by over 36 per
cent, during
the total 1934, bythatthethe“Conference’’

the outward trade of India,increased during the first nine, months of the year
under review. The 1934 returns for other countries east, of Suez are not yet available
Reference to the Shipping tables given in this volume will show, that the
total of the statistics for entrances and clearances at Chinese ports amounted
to 140.5 million tons as against 137.4 million in the preceding .year, a gain of
3.1 million tons or a little over 2 per cent. Analysed bv flag. British vessels
took the leading position with-58.9 million tons, followed by Chinese shipping
with 41.2 million tons, Japanese shipping with 20.1 million tons, American
AlO CHINA
shipping with 5.4 million tons, Norwegian shipping with 4.5 million tons, and
other flags aggregating 10.4 million tons. These figures include 44.9 milliom
tons entered from and cleared to foreign countries, and 95.6 million tons-
entered arid cleared coastwise: they do not; include the tonnage of vessels plying;
under Inland Waters Steam Navigation Regulations. The leading ports in.
China as regards shipping trade with abroad were Shanghai, Canton, Swatow,,
Kiaochow, Kowloon and Tientsin, in that order. The following table further
analyses the shipping trade, showing the percentage share of the total entrances-
and clearances taken by the three leading flags during the year under review: —

Mention should be made of the fact that four new Chinese flag vessels, two
of which were built at Newcastle and-two on the Clyde to the most modern
designs, were added to the coastal fleet of the China Merchants Steam Navi-
gation Company during the year under review. Two of these vessels had
actually arrived in China before the end of the year and the other two werd
en. route. For further details, reference should be made to the exhaustive
statistical data to be found in the Shipping tables (in this, first volume of
“The Trade of China”)* which include particulars of all entrances and clear-
ances both for the foreign and domestic trade of the country, analysed by
number and, tonnage of vessels as well as. by: ports and by flags. Local and
regional conditions have been touched upon already in this report in some of
the port reviews-rfor example, the reviews on Tientsin , (conditions on the Taku
Bar and the Haiho), Chungking (conditions on the Upper Yangtze), Hankow
(conditions on the Middle and Lower sections; of; the Yangtze), and' Shanghai
(activities of the Whangpoo Conservancy Board,, conditions in the harbour and;
approaches, etc.). •
Freights via Suez
Freight rates by “Conference” shipping lines to Europe via Suez were-.;
maintained at the previous year’s level for certain commodities as follows (per

commodities, and the following were the principal items'.affected: tobacco in
hogshead, from flOs. to 80s. j hemp, from 90s- to 60s. • sesamum seed, from 48s.
to. 44s. ,6d.; brassware, from lOEs. to'85s.; China grass (ramie), from 66s. to-
60s. and later to 55s. Rates for tea, the .shipments of which were unusually
heavy, underwent various changes,- ranging from 78s.*, at the opening to. 65s.
at, the close of the year. Rates for oil in bulk were maintained with the^
exception of those for yroo^-Oil, .wh^efr' were'ijqd^iceS Sropt^Os. to 31>s. qri the 1st
July and raised to 80s. on the 1st October. The rate for groundnut kernels was
reduced from 33s. to 28s. in March, and the latter rate remained in force until
the end of June, after which the rate, was left “open” : charges from groundnuts
in shell followed a similar course. The rate for bearis was reduced from'36s.
to 31s. in May, but'was restored to the opening price after October. The raw
silk rate, hitherto quoted in Ideal currency, was placed on a sterling basis in
June, and a quantity of this valuable freight was actually despatched to
Europe via Japan in order to take advantage of the lower rates ruling .'frir
silk in the latter country.
CHINA An
Transpacific Freights
Only a few minor, changes were made in freight r^t'es, from Chinn to ports
on the Pacific Coast during 1934, the 1933 tariff remaining in force for many
of the export commodities.. A few of the principal items.; may be specified as
follows, contracts rates for deliveries on the coast being quoted in each case
(per 40 cubic feet unless Otherwise stated): general 'cargo, U.S. $15.50 W/M;
brassware, chinaware, and cotton goods, TJ.S. $10.25; cotton waste, U.S. $3.50;.
human hair, U.S. $15.25; human hair (eombih^s, stumps''6r wa.ste), U.S. $11;

$12; tea, U.S. $4; nutgalls in bags, U.S. $12, per 2,000 pounds; cotton-seed oil
in bulk (added to the tariff in 1934), U.S. $4 per 2,0p6 pounds; raw silk, U.S.
$3 per 100 pounds; ground nut oil in bulk, U.S. $4 per 000 "pounds;
groundnuts in shell, U.Si $5 per 2,000 pounds arid groundnut'khrnfe'ls in bags,
U.S. $3.50 per 2,000 pounds. The rate for sesamum.seed was an ^ppen” one
during most of the year, but was fixed at U.S. $3.50 per 2;000 pounds in
December. The fixed rate for wood oil in bulk, U.Sv $6 per 2,000 pounds, was
temporarily suspended in August.
Railways
Of all the constructive work now being undertaken by way of reorganising
this country internally against a return of more prosperous times, none is of
more importance and none (not even .the great strides being made in the
Industrialisation of the country) is more impressive than the rapid develop-
ment of China’s lines of communication, especially railways, roads, airways,
wireless telegraphy, and long-distance telephony. In the matter of railways
a long period of comparative inactivity came to an end a few years ago, as
soon, in fact, as a greater degree'’6f political stability began to.be achieved,
and in each of the recent issues of these annual tirade repohts''it has been
possible since then to record definite progress frotn year to year. During the
twelve months now under review, work ori the Canton-Iiankow Railway
proceeded more rapidly thain was expected : and all of the uncompleted sections
of the line are now under construetion. There is every reasoii to hope that
this most important and nearly forty-year-old project will be finished by 1936.
Success has also been met with in the case of the Lung-Hai Railway extension
scheme, the main line having been completed and tested as far as Sian, the
capital of Shensi-province,-in December. Considerable progress, was also, made
towards providing adequate harbour facilities at the coastal terminus of, this
line at Lienyunkiang on Haiehow Bay, including the construction of a branch'
line from Taierchwang to Chaochwang. Work was commenced on the building
of the Yushah-Pingsiang section, of the Chekiang-Kiangsi-Hnnan Railway.
The line from Hangchow to Yushan was completed in 1933, and, as this new
section will carry it forward via Nanchaiig, the capital of Kiangsi, to Ping-
siang, where rail connexion to Chuchow on the Canton-Hankow line is already
in being, the economic importance of the whole project to the agricultural,
mining, and industrial interests of the area traversed can baldly be exaggerat-
ed. The completion of this line even as far as Nanchaiig, where it will
connect with the Kiukiang-Nanchang Railway, will link up the well-known
Yangtze port of Kiukiang with Shanghai by rail. What may be considered,
one of the most, important new projects of the year arose put of the decision
to enlarge the Wuhu-Chapu Light Railway scheme into, an undertaking,
entrusted to the Kiangnan Railway Company, to build a main line from
Nanking to Chaoan, a place in the very south-western corner of Fukien near
the Kwangtung border, through Wuhu (Anhwei province), Sunchiapu (Anhwei
province), Kiangshan (Chekiang province), and Yenping (Fukien province).
The line has been styled the Nanking—Chaoan Railway, and later, it is to be
extended to Canton. The second section of it. from Wuhu to Sunchiapu, has
been completed, and the first section, from Nanking to Wuhu, almost completed.
It was only in 1933 that the treaty port of Wuhu was linked up with Shanghai
by motor highway, and now in the course of a, few months it will also "find
12
Al 2 CHINA
itself connected with that ocean port by rail: an illustration of the rapid
changes being brought about in the matter of lines of communication in this
country. Still another railway is under construction in the Wuhu neighbour-
hood. It has been styled the Hwaiyuan—Yukikow line, and runs from
Hwaiyuan through Hofei and the Huai-nan and Tatung coal-fields to Yukiko
on the north bank of the Yangtze opposite Wuhu. A branch line from Cheng-
yangkuan to Pengpu on the Tientsin-Pukow Railway is also being built at
the present time. Farther north, remarkable progress has been witnessed
during the year in the construction of the Tatung-Puchow Railway, which
traverses Shansi from the northern to the southern limits of that jjrovince.
This brief summary of some of the year's accomplishments in the matter of
railway construction should not be' closed without reference to the fact that
arrangements have at last been made for completing the unfinished section,
between Tsaongo and Zakow, of the Shanghai-Hangchow-Ningpo line. The
great stumbling-block to the completion of this railway was the cost of bridg-
ing the Ts’ao-o and the Ch'ient’ang Rivers. Work on the Ch’ient’ang bridge
was actually commenced in November. It will consist of 16 spans, each POO feet
long, and is to carry both the highway and the railway across the river. All
this constructional progress, happily, has been accompanied by administrative
progress, and the financial and credit positions of the railways have been
noticeably strengthened during the vear under review, as evidenced by the much
higher quotations now ruling for Chinese railway bonds in the stock markets
of the world.
Roads
Progress in road construction throughout this country has been even more
spectacular than the advance in railway construction, as the last few issues
of these reports will show. According to statistics furnished by the Highways
Section of the National Economic Council, there are now 26.447 kilometres of
highway open to traffic in the eight provinces of Kiangsu. Chekiang. Anhwei,
Kiangsi, Hupeh, Hunan, Honan, and Fukien. Statistics for the whole
country, which would indicate the rate of progress still more impressively, are
not vet available. Deducting the figures for Fukien, which were not included
in the seven-province total emoted in the last report, the remarkable increase
of 12,849 kilometres of roadway (more than the total length of highways
completed up to the end of 1933) is recorded for the year under review. Of the
26,447 kilometres of highway now in use, 12,262 kilometres are surfaced and
14,185 kilometres mud roads. An additional 5,622 kilometres were actually
under construction at the end of the year. Comments on regional progress
have been given already in the port reviews, where the receipt of authoritative
information seemed to justify such remarks. Of special interest to those
acquainted with the Yangtze River ports wdll be the fact that the motor road
from Hankow to Ichang was completed during the year. This route is covered
by bus in about 13 hours, as against the up-river steamer trip of some four
to five days according to the season of the year. It would also appear that
this Yangtze port of Ichang can now be reached by motor highway from
Shanghai via Changsha, Chahgteh, and Shasi. From Changsha it is reported
that, with the completion of the road from Ichang (a town on the southern
boundary of Hunan, not the Yangtze port afore-mentioned) to Hsiaotang,
through motor traffic from Shanghai via Changsha to Canton was established.
Other points of interest are too numerous to repeat here, and it may be noteoi'
that the reviews referred, to cover only regions in which Maritime Custom*
establishments are situated; they take no notice of constructional work com-
pleted or planned by the Government with a view to facilitating trade and
transport in the less accessible areas of the country, a problem to which great
attention is now being paid.

Commercial Aviation
By courtesy of the China National Aviation Corporation, one of the air
mail and passenger services operated under the direction of the Ministry of
Communications, the following authoritative history of its accomplishments to
date, with an outline description of the equipment in use, is here placed on
record: —
“The China National Aviation Corporation commenced business on the 8th
July 1930, and on the 20th October of that year the first Loenihg1 Amphibian
took off from Lunghwa Airport (Shanghai), and the route to Hankow, a
distance of 516 miles, was opened, this line serving Shanghai, Nanking, Anking,
Kiukiang and Hankow, thus uniting the principal commercial ports of the
rich valley of the Lower Yangtze River.
“On the 1st April 1931, the Shanghai-Hankow line was extended to Ichang
at the foot of the world-famed gorges of the Yangtze, and on the 21st October
of the same year the line was further extended to distant Chungking, 1,600
miles by boat from Shanghai, thus covering almost the entire length of the
great Yangtze River.
“On the 11th November 1933, the Chungking-Chengtu line (in Szechwan
province) was inaugurated, thereby making Chengtu, the capital of the most
western
4
and one of the richest provinces in China, within easy access.
‘The commercial conquest of Western China by air completed, the China
National Aviation Corporation turned its attention to the north, and on the
10th January 1933 the Shanghai-Peiping line was inaugurated with stops at
Haichow, Tsingt-ao and Tientsin.
“On the 24th October 1933 the Shanghai-Canton line was established, with
stops at the important ports of Wenchow, Foochow, Amoy and Swatow. This
line, just over 1,000 miles in length, serves the entire coast from the Yangtze
Tfelta to the Pearl River, covering territory inhabited by over one hundred
million people.
“At the present time, Loening Amphibians, with a crew of two and a
seating capacity for four passengers, and with a cruising speed of 90 miles per
hour, are in use between Shanghai and Chungking, daily schedules each way
being flown between Shanghai and Hankow, and three round trips per Week
between Hankow and Chungking.
“Stinson land planes, with pilot, co-pilot, and seating capacity for four
passengers, with a cruising speed of 110 miles per hour, are in use between
Shanghai and Peiping, and also between Chungking and Chengtu, three round
trips per week being flown between Shanghai and Peiping and four round trips
per week between. Chungking and Chengtu.
“Between Shanghai and Canton, Douglas Dolphin Amphibians are in use.
These planes carry a crew of two and six passengers-, with a cruising speed of
150 miles per hour.”
The following table gives an excellent idea of the rapid advancement of
commercial aviation in this country: the statistics are for the China National
Corporation’s field of operations only: —

A.H CHINA
On account of the constantly increasing popularity of air transportation
evidenced by these statistics, orders have been placed for four new Fairchild
Amphibians, each with a cruising speed of 160 miles per hour and a passenger-
carrying capacity of eight persons, for use during the coming year on the
Shanghai-Hankow-Chungking route. These planes will reduce the flying time
on this route by almost 50 per cent. Similarly, a new Douglas Transport
plane, with a cruising speed of 200 miles per hour and a carrying capacity
of 14 persons, has been ordered for the Shanghai-Peiping line. An order has
also been placed for a tri-motor Ford plane for use on a new route to be
opened almost at once from Chungking to Yunnan. The powerful plane in
question will make the trip over this route in three hours and a half, as
against the three to four weeks that such a journey by land would occupy.
By courtesy of the Eurasia Aviation Corporation the following facts arc
supplied concerning the operations of this particular corporation. In May
1933 a service was inaugurated between Shanghai and Sinkiang, with stops at
Nanking, Loyang, Sian, Lanchow, Suchow, Kami, and Urumchi (Tihwafu).
Since September 1933, however, it has been impossible to operate beyond
Lanchow owing to the troubles in Sinkiang province. On the 1st May of the
year under review a new air line was established by this corporation between
Peiping and Canton, with stops at Taiyuan, Loyang, Hankow and Changsha.
At the same time the short Peiping-Loyang service, previously inaugurated,
was discontinued as a separate entity by making Loyang the point of change
for passengers and freight travelling by the Sinkiang Shanghai and the
Peiping-Canton lines. Later in the year, however, Chengchow was made the
junction for these lines. Another route, between Lanchow and Ninghsia, was
opened on the 15th June. The Eurasia Aviation Corporation’s planes flew
486,902 kilometres, and carried 1,074 passengers as well as 43,092 kilogrammes
of cargo and 4,170 kilogrammes of mail matter during the course of the year.
In South China, two new air services were inaugurated and maintained
by the South-western Aviation Corporation during 1934: one from Canton to
Lungchow via Wuchow and Nanning, and the other from Canton to Pakhoi
via Mowming and Kiungchow.
The Summing Up
In his summing up on the conditions of trade in 1934, Mr. MacEwan
writes: —
To recapitulate, it has been found, as regards the country’s trade position
in general, that the value of imports declined by 23.4 per cent, and that the
value of exports declined by only 12.6 per cent, during the year under review,
resulting in a substantial improvement in the appearance of the account, and
that, as successive annual reductions of the adverse balance have been achieved
since 1931,* amounting respectively to $132 million, $222 million, and $238
million, the total excess of imports over exports has been reduced by consider-
ably more than one-half during the past three years.
Analysing the trade position in greater detail, it has been found that the
improvement in the import account for the year was due largely to decreased
purchases of cotton goods, rice, wheat, wheat flour, and kerosene oil; and, as
it is hoped eventually to make this country independent of foreign supplies of
the first four of these commodities, seeing that they are all produced domesti-
cally in great quantity, the reduced outlay on imports is held to be of double
significance, in that, not only was a necessary saving effected on behalf of the
whole account, but this.saving was effected principally in connexion with these
staple foodstuffs and manufactures.
In the matter of exports the opinion has been expressed (see the article
'‘Exports”) that it would be a mistake to impute the-blame for the compara-
* Fide Table II in the article “Value of Trade.”

tively small decrease in the value of this section of trade entirely or even
chiefly to disabilities inherent in this country’s internal situation, since the
result for the year cannot be dissociated from the economic situation univer-
sally existent at the present time. A close relationship naturally exists
between the present value figures for the outward trade and the present
“depression” prices for such produce as China habitually disposes of in foreign
markets, and, as the quantitative statistics for the year were quite impressive,
it would seem that the slightly lower statistic's: are no indication that the
country is failing to adjust domestic costs to present world market
conditions, quite the reverse. The existence of this quantitative
demand, which obviously would have been much stronger if it had
not been partially smothered by governmental restrictions in other
countries,
near future.raises hopes
Indeed, someforevidence

this was inseen‘ world prices halfin'of the
in the second the
year under review, quotations being 50 per cent, higher than in 1933 for beans,
35 per cent, higher for sesamum seed, 40 per cent, higher for cotton-seed oil,
50 per cent, higher for cotton-seed cake, 57 per cent, higher for groundnuts,
while considerable advances were noticeable for oil seeds in general as well as
for such specialities as bristles, wood oil, antimony, and wolfram ore. Some
of these higher prices, however, undoubtedly were due to special conditions
arising out of the drought which afflicted Europe and America, and, until a
more normal recovery in demand sets in and bargaining for the last possible
stiver becomes a thing of the past, the fact should not be overlooked that
success in international markets will depend on the cheapness of the national
price structure, and that in this respect China has many advantages over other
countries. It goes without saying that these advantages must be capitalised
to the full, as cheap production and marketing are economic necessities of the
times, and, if the price of silver .continues to advance in the artificial manner
witnessed during the year under review, merchandise from this country may
haves to meet the additional handicap of a:h adverse exchange rising umymme-
trically vis^a-vis commcdity prices.
Historxcai.
The year 1900 will ever be memorable in the history of China for the
“Boxer” rising. Details of this great social and political upheaval may be
found in preceding volumes of this Directory. The object of the rising, which
was confined to the North, was the extermination of foreign native Christians
and people known to be associated with foreigners. The Legation Quarter at
Peking was besigned for two months by the Boxer rabble and the Imperial
troops, the occupants being reduced to the verge of starvation. Troops were
poured into China by all the European Powers, America and Japan, and
it was not before 20,000 foreign troops had fought their way to the capital
chat the siege was raised. Over 250 Europeans were murdered during the
rising, and it was estimated that over 10,000 natives perished, most of them
being Christians or the kinsmen of Christians.
In November, 1908, occurred the death of the Emperor Kwang Hsu, fol-
lowed a day later by the death of the Empress Dowager Tzu Hsi. This was
unexpected, and there was consequently much suspicion for a time regarding
the cause of the dual demise. The public were soon satisfied, however, that the
deaths were due to perfectly natural causes. Dying childless, the late Em-
peror Kwang Hsm acting in obedience to “the benign mandate” of the
Empress Dowager Tzu Hsi, designated as he lay dying a son of Prince Ch’un,
his brother, as his successor to' the Throne. At the time of his accession the
new sovereign was barely three years of age, and Prince Ch’un was appointed
to act as Regent during the Sovereign’s minority. The events of the past
ten years had convinced Tzu Hsi, who had been the virtual ruler since 1895,
that the salvation of the country lay in a complete reformation of the Gov-
ernment. Accordingly, from being a reactionary of the Worst type, she

address she directed that the occupant of the Throne should fulfil the pro-
mises she had made, and the opening of the new reign was marked by a suc-
cession of Reform Edicts giving promise of the fulfilment, at last, of the
long-cherished hopes for the country’s regeneration. Scarcely two years had
passed, however, before the country was swept by a revolution vastly different
in its purpose from the abortive Boxer rising just eleven years previously.
It developed as if t>y magic although, for many years, there had been reform
propaganda in China. In 1895 the Empress 'Dowager, alarmed by the Em-
peror Kwang-Hsu’s reform proclivities, usurped the Throne, made the Em-
peror virtually a prisoner in his palace, had many of the leading reformers,
executed, and put a high price on the heads of aH who had escaped out of
the country. But notwithstanding the most rigorous measures which were
enforced to suppress the movement, the propaganda was secretly and success-
fully continued. If hitherto there had been any hesitancy on the part of
the Reformers to adopt the abolition of the Manchu monarchy as a plank in
their platform, it was now overcome, and a revolutionary campaign was
organised in earnest. An upheaval was expected at the time of the infant
Emperor’s accession to the Throne, and extensive military preparations were
made to cope with it- Nothing happened, however. The organisers of the
Reformation were not quite ready to attempt the coup de main they contem-
plated, and it is a fact that when at length the Revolution began, in Octo-
ber, 1911, it broke out prematiirely. It started at Wuchang instead of
at Canton, which had been regarded as the most likely storm centre; earlier
in the year indications of grave discontent had appeared in Canton; the
Tartar-General was shot dead in the streets of the city in April, and in the
same month a body of reformers, assisted by discontented soldiery, attacked
the Viceroy’s yamen. His Excellency, however, escaped by a back way, and
the insurrection was quelled, largely through the instrumentality of Admiral
Li, who consequently got into bad odour among the revolutionaries- with
the result that in August an attempt was made on his life. A bomb was
thrown at him; three persons were killed and the Admiral was severely
wounded. On October 24th the new Tartar-General was blown to pieces as
he landed at Canton to take up his new command. Earlier in the month
there had been a dynamite explosion in the Russian Concession at Hankow,
and investigation revealed the existence of an alarming revolutionary plot,
which the Viceroy took prompt measures to frustrate. This was the signal
for the rising. Some of the troops mutinied, and the Viceroy, as well as
the General in command, fled for their lives from Wuchang. General Li
Yuan-hung, who had been second in command of the Imperial troops, with
great reluctance and under threat of instant death if he persisted
in refusing, put himself at the head of the revolutionary army,
which rapidly, grew into many thousands. Hanyang with its arsenal
and the native city of Hankow were quickly gained by the re-
volutionists without serious resistance, and before the end of the month Li
Yuan-hung informed the Foreign Consuls that he had become President of
the Republic of Hupeh. The revolution spread rapidly throughout the
Yangtsze Valley, and extended southwards as well as westwards to Tibet.

Hankow, to re-take the cities of which the revolutionary troops had so
easily possessed themselves. Meanwhile news was constantly arriving of the
success of the Revolutionary movement in the provinces. Within six weeks
fourteen out of the eighteen provinces of China had declared their independ-
ence of Manchu rule. Edicts streamed from the Throne yielding every demand
in the Revolutionary programme short of the abolition of the monarchy.
In its desperation the Court turned to Yuan Shih-kai, “ the one strong
man of China ” who had been driven into retirement two years pre-
viously for reasons which are familiar to everyone acquainted with the
history of the Reform movement in China. Yuan showed no eagerness to
take the position of Generalissimo and Viceroy of Hupeh, but, after a month’s
CHINA A17
consideration, went to Peking, presumably satisfied that all the authority and
help he required to deal with the situation would be given to the operations.
By Imperial Edict he was appointed Premier. Yuan asked for this appoint-
ment to be endorsed by the National Assembly, and this was done unani-
mously. Meanwhile the advance on Hankow had been begun, and on October
29th General Yin Chang reported that the native city of Hankow had been
taken by the Imperial army. The Imperialist Commander-in-chief deemed
it necessary to the success of his plans that the entire city should be destroyed
by fire, and consequently some 700,000 persons were rendered homeless. After
desperate fighting the ‘Wu Han towns” were re-taken by the Imperialists.
There was severe fighting also at Nanking before it capitulated to the Revolu-
tionaries, and became the seat of the Republican Government. After the
Imperialist success at Hankow there were overtures for peace, and negotia-
tions were opened at Shanghai on December 18th between Wu Ting Fang, as the
representative of the Revolutionaries, and Tang Shao-yi, as the envoy of the
Imperial Government: but the conference came to an end almost as soon as it
opened, because on behalf of the Revolutionaries the abolition of the monarchy
was insisted upon as the basis of negotiation. This was firmly opposed by
Yuan Bhih-kai, but on December ?8th the Throne announced that it was
prepared to leave the question of the future constitution of China to the
decision of a national convention. That was the position at the end of the
year. Meanwhile Prince Chun had resigned the regency, and by Imperial
Decrees the monarchy had been made a limited monarchy on British lines.
The . Republican convention had elected Sun Yat Sen as President of the
Republican Military Government, and upon his installation at Nanking on
January 1st, 1912, he appointed a Ministry and issued an appeal to the
Powers to recognise the Republican Government. Terms of abdication were
offered to the Court at Peking, and Yuan Shih-kai was invited to assume the
position of Provisional President of the Republic. After many Palace con-
terences a Decree of abdication was issued by the infant, Emperor, as having
been lespectfully received from her Imperial Majesty the Empress Dowager
Lung Yu. The terms of abdiction provided that the Emporer may retain
the title of Emperor of Ta Ching and shall be treated accordance with the
etiquette which would govern relations with a foreign monarch on Chinese
soil. An annuity of four million taels is payable to him, and His Majesty
was permitted to continue in occupation of the Palaces in the Forbidden City
until the Summer Palace should be ready for him. The nation undertook to
maintain the tombs of the Imperial dead. In due course Dr. Sun Yat-sen
resigned the Presidency in favour of Yuan iShih-kai, who was practically
unanimously appointed by the National Assembly at Nanking. It was ex-
pected of him that he would journey to Nanking to be installed; but after
much discussion this ceremony was performed in Peking. The ambition of
the Republicans wras to make Nanking the capital of China, but there was

< two Houses, and after the abortive second revolution, against what was re-
garded as dictatorship by Yuan Shih-kai, the “provisional” Government was
brought to an end by Parliament duly electing Yuan Shih-kai as President
of the Republic for a period of five years, with General Li Yuan-hung as
Vice-President. The year 1913 closed with Parliament suspended, owing to
a mandate by the President cancelling the seats of over 300 members for
treasonable conspiracy, and, pending a new election, an “ Administrative
Conference,” representative of the whole of the provinces, vTas formed to
consider a number of legislative projects including a revision of the law.
This was succeeded in 1914 by the creation of the Tsan Cheng-Yuan or
State Council composed of men of official and administrative experience,
mostly, of course, of the old school. The year was notable for the operations
of a notorious robber chief, known as the White Wolfe, who commanded a
large following, and for months terrorised almost the whole of mid-TThina.
A18 CHINA
The marauding hand traversed several Provinces, plundered cities and laid
waste whole districts. The chief defied all the efforts of the Military for
quite a long time, but was ultimately killed and his followers dispersed.
This was not the only misfortune in that year, for floods greater than had
been known in China for fifty years devastated Kwangtung and took a heavy
toil of life. Similar disasters occurred in the North, causing many deaths
and much damage to property. Though not actively participating in the-
European War, China suffered very severely in consequence of the outbreak
of hostilities. Not only was her foreign trade dislocated, but the money
markets of Europe, from which she expected to draw supplies necessary for
administration and for the development of the country, were closed
to her; while a portion of her territory was overrun by the Japanese in

Conditions in 1934.
Distinctly mere peaceful conditions were experienced throughout the
greater part of the country during the year under review. There were no
further acts of foreign aggression, and, if there remained some evidences of
Sino-Japanese tension in Northern China, the occurrence of embarrassing
incidents as a result of this strained atmosphere was safely averted by the
discreet conduct of affairs by the Peiping Political Council, under the general
direction of the National Government, during the protracted negotiations for
the retrocession of the Great Wall passes and the resumption of through traffic
on the Peiping-Moukden Railway. The somewhat unimpressively staged revolt
in Fukien was crushed in January, and, as foreshadowed in the previous trade
report, the internal situation was further improved by the eventual success of
the campaign against the so-called Soviet forces in Kiangsi. The most serious
natural calamity of the year was a drought affecting the provinces of Anhwei,
Chekiang, Kiangsi, and Kiangsu principally, and many other provinces to a
lesser extent. No attempt is made here to describe the varied activities of the
Government during the year or even to summarise all the important under-
takings of the National Economic Council in the interests of commerce and
industry, the development of the country in general, and the prospering of
agriculture in all its branches: these matters are dealt with in their proper
place elsewhere in this report. The silver crisis was such an outstanding
economic feature of the year, however, that the Government’s handling of this
matter is placed somewhat fully on record in the next section of this introduc-
tory chapter. All the constructive work now being done to improve the internal
economy of the country must bring results in time. It is a task upon which
all nations are now engaged as a necessary preliminary to an expansion in
their foreign trade. Meanwhile, it has to be admitted that the nation’s pur-
chasing power, in common with that of many other countries, show's no sign
of improvement as yet, and that her foreign trade is all too obviously suffering
still from the effects of the greatest of all disturbances of the world’s economic
equilibrium. The decline in the combined value of imports and exports
amounted to 20 per cent.; but the fact should not be overlooked that after
reducing her adverse visible balance of trade in 1933 by 222 million dollars,
China has effected a further reduction of 238 million dollars .(which meant
decreasing her excess of imports by almost exactly one-third) during the year
under review.
Despite a 20 per cent, decrease in the total value of trade with foreign
countries, the Customs revenue collection reached the high figure of 344.6 million
dollars, a decrease of less than per cent, compared with the figures for the
previous year ($339.5 million), and a sum sufficient to provide a considerable
fund for ordinary Government usage after fully meeting all the loan and other
obligations for which this revenue stands pledged.

TIENTSIN
^ ^ Tien-tsin
Tientsin—or the Ford of Heaven, according to the Chinese meaning of itg1-
name—may now well be called the commercial capital of North China. Situated
at the junction of the Grand Canal and the Pei Ho in Lat. 39 deg. 4 min.
N., long. 117 deg. 4 min. E. (approx.), it is some 80 miles distant from Peking
by road and somewhat further by river. Railway connection with the capital
was established in 1897. A road between the two places, 94 miles , long, was
completed towards theofend
by the inauguration of 1922,telephone
a wireless and communication was further
service on March 7th of facilitated
that year.
The expeditions of the Allies in 1858-61 greatly enhanced the importaiice of
the city, as it then proved to be the military key of the capital and an excel-
lent base. It was here on June 26th, 1858, that Lord Elgin sighed the treaty
which was to conclude the war, but which unhappily led to its prolongation.
The famous temple in which the treaty was signed, about a mile distant from
the. West gat$, was destroyed by British shells in July, 1900.
Tientsin owes its early importance to' its location at the northern terminus
of the Grand Canal, and its later development is mainly due to the opening
up of North China to foreign trade, to improved railway communications with
the Interior, and to the deepening of the Bar and the Hai Ho by the Hai Ho
Conservancy Board. Before the advent of steamers, however, Tientsin had
become a flourishing cbntre fpr junk trafflc, and when the tribute rice no longer
followed the 'Grand 'Cao'al fpuie—owing to the shoaling of this ancient and
celebrated waterway—it
ing the downfall of the was sent todynasty
Manchu Tientsinin in1912,sea-goihg juhks when of,
thp transportation follow-
this
commodity ceased altogether. Early in .September, 1917, the Hunho was in
flood, and, finally, the Grand Canal burst its banks a few miles west of Tien-
tsin, carrying away the main line of the Tientsin-Pukow Railway, which re-
sulted in the Concessions being flooded before much warning of the impending
danger could be given. The Municipal authorities of the various Concessions-
dealt with the problem in a prompt and pubiic-spirited manner, and it was
ultimately decided to enclose the submerged Concessions with a dyke and pump
out the flood waters therefrom. The lengths of the various dj'kes in miles-
were approximately as follows:—Chinese (ex-German) 0.47; British, 1.40;.
French and British, 0.87; French, 0.32; Japanese, 2.27; total, 5.33 miles.
Powerful pumps were then erected, and the whole undertaking for the British
and French Concessions was successfully and expeditiously completed in a
fortnight. It took longer to clear the Japanese Concession, however, where
the water was from 7 to 10 feet deep in places. It is estimated that over 15,000
square miles of the most populous part of the Chihli province between Pao-
tingfu and Tientsin were flooded, and it has been calculated that crops to the
value of $100,000,000 were utterly lost, and that 80,000 groups of dwellings,
ranging from hamlets to large villages, were destroyed.
Turning to the civil administration of the city, it is well known that during

the Tientsinese were notorious throughout the empire, and, as he made the
city his chief residence and the centre of his many experiments in military
and naval education, it came to be regarded as the focus of the new learning
and national reform. The foreign affairs of China were practically directed'
from Tientsin during the two decades 1874-94.
TIENTSIN A43-
The city will ever be infamous to Europeans from the massacre of the
French Sisters of Mercy and other foreigners on June 21st, 1870, in which
the most appalling brutality was exhibited; as usual, the political agitators
who instigated the riot got off. The Roman Catholic Cathedral, which was
destroyed on that occasion, was rebuilt, and the new building was consecrated
in 1897, only again to fall a victim to Boxer fury in 1900. The building occu-

The population was 1,388,747 in 1929. The city walls were quadrate and
extended about 4,000 feet in the direction of each cardinal point; during the
year 1901 they were entirely demolished and replaced by fine open boulevards
under the orders of the Foreign Military Provisional Government. This body
has further bunded the whole of; the Hai Ho (Pei-ho) and effected numberless
other urban improvements. The advent of foreigners caused a great increase
in the value of real estate all over Tientsin.
Li Hung-chang authorised Mr. Tong King-seng to sink a coal shaft at
Tong Shan (60 miles N.E. of Tientsin) in the ’seventies; this was done and
proved the precursor of a railway, which was later extended to iShanhaikwan
for military purposes, and from thence round the Gulf of Liautung to Kin-
chow; 1900 saw this line pushed on to Newehwang. In 1897 the line to Peking
was opened, and proved such , a success that’the line had to be doubled in
1898-9. A side station for the Tientsin City was opened in 1904, and in 1905
the station was built of white sandstone bricks made at Huangtsun by an
Italian called Marzoli, who had opened a brick factory on a large scale.
From Feng-tai, about 7 miles from the capital, the trans-continental line to
Hankow branches off. This line was completed and opened to traffic in Novem-
ber, 1905. In 1900 the violence of the Boxers was chiefly directed against the-
railways, all of which were more or less destroyed, but under British, French,
and Russian military administration they were afterwards all restored to
their former efficiency.
Foreigners formerly lived in three concessions—British, French, and Ger-
man—which fringed the. river below, the city and covered an area" of less than
500 acres. The Japanese took up a concession in accordance with the terms
of the Treaty of Shimonoseki. They filled in land, laid out new streets and
built a large number of houses in foreign style. During 1001 Russia, Belgium,
Italy, and Austro-Hungary all appropriated large areas on the left bank of
the Hai-ho as future Settlements, while the existing concessions extended their
boundaries considerably. These developments for some time threw all
landing facilities for direct seargoing traffic into foreign hands.
In 1917, upon the entry of China into the Great War, the Chinese reco
vered control over the German and Austrian concessions, in 1920 over the
Russian, and in 1929 over the Belgian. The general deterioration in , the
maintenance and in the public services of these areas since their rendition
to China (with the exception of the Belgian, concession which, had npyer been
developed at all) is most noticeable. The. administration of: all these, areas
is now entirely in the hands of Chinese officials and no vpiqe therein is* al-
lowed to any of the residents, either foreign or Chinese. The .other concessions
have excellent and well-lighted roads, and an electric tramway, system links
them with the Chinese city. The British Municipality has a handsome Town
Hall, completed :n 1889; adjoining, there is a well-kept public garden, open-
ed in the year of Jubilee and styled Victoria Park. Two excellent recreation
grounds of 10 acres and over here have been developed, in which tennis-courts,
etc., have been laid out. The various British areas—known as the British
Concess’on, British Extension, and the Extra-Mural Area—have been amal-
gamated to form one Municipal Area under a Council elected on a broad
franchise. New land regulations Have come into force, and it is stipulated
therein that the new Council consist of ten members, of whom five shall be

British su-bjects and f five shall'be Ghiiif'se. Candidates must be nominated by
two i electors and aM electors are eligible to serve on. the Cdunoil. The mini-
mum qualification for any voter, irrespective of nationality, is the payment
of Tls. 200 per annum in respect of land-tax or rental assessment tax or the
occupation of premises of an assessed annual rental value of Tls. 600.
A feature of Tientsin which arrests the' attention of‘visitor! Is the open-air
storage of cargo, on the British and French Bunds, which have thus becofiae in
effect a '‘general goadwh. A great deal of confusioh and congestion formerly
existed from; this .practice, but the British: Municipality has : since elaborated
an excellent: scheme whereby the 1Bund is divided into numbered Steamer-sec-
tions and storagef-spacefe, and the roadway is: now kept clear of cargo. The
result has more than justified expectations, and the .orderly storage of goods
in marked-off spaces not only allows a proper control to be kept over all such
cargo but has facilitated communications by keeping the carriage-w'ay clear
of obstructions. . >

There was a partial change to automatic machines, which are greatly’appre-

and, coastwise ekportatiohs of Chinese produce, 56.7 million dollars as against

Noticeable decreases Avere recorded for instance, under most of the headings for
cotton piece goods, petroleum products, and sugar ; while-increases were recorded

the loss it willforeign

from was
the made
value
good-by Chinese merchandise,: which is all to/;th0 advantage of. the national
trade account. The country’s loss on the direct foreign expofC'xrade of Tien-
tsin, as compared with 1933, amounted to 7.4 million dollars, but, as will bb
shown, this general loss Was more than covered by a deficiency urtder dn'e item
in the Returns, while several items that, registered quantitative, increases
exhibited a declin^,’in value, and almost all the remainder of the staples'of the
port registered increases in. both quantity and value. Raw cotton of which
only 162,000 quintals valued at "12 million dollars were shipped abroad as
cchihai'ed,:'with 276,000 quintals’vhlued at 19.8 million dollar.} in the preceding ’
year, was the item instanced -as being responsible for more than the total
decline in the value of the export trade. Tientsin is by far the largest port
of shipment in: (fhina for Cotton going abroad, and,-as .the-total export® from
the country during 1;934 amounted to only 209,000 quintals, or almost exactly
half the quantity shipped in 1933, it is greatly to Tientsin’s credit that it
obtained such a large share' of’the business offering during the ye&r under
review. Of the item's shdwing: T,a quantitative/improvement with a decline in
value, the following im]jortant staples of the port may be mentioned: wool,
which increased to a quantity from 130,000-to 180,000 quintals Rut registered
a decrease from 13.4'millionf‘to 12.7 million dollars in value; eggs, which
increased (by over Sb^per cent.) from 76,000 mille to 103',000mille and decreased
slightly in value from 1.11 million tq 1.10 million dollars ; egg products, which
increased from 110,000 :to 115,000 quintals and (lecfeasecl in value from 9
million to 7.5 million'ddlla'rs; beans and peas,'Which *incfeased !'ffour m.,000
to 111,000 quintals and decreased in value from 1,,I million;to 1 million, dollars.
The most fortuhhte classes qf export items, were 't'hipse w'hich reglsteied
improvement both as .to quantity and value, ahd'tti^, more important pf these
staples were : skins (excluding skin mats and rugs),, which increased generally
as to quantity .(paidicplarly sheep and lamb skins)’and rose frpm 9 million
to 9.9 million dollars in.total value; carpets, which increased in quantity from
-9,990 to 11,800 quintals and in value from 3.7 million to 4.1 million dollars;
bristles, which increased in quantity from 11,500-to ISljOOO quintals arid in -value
from 2.8 million to-4 million dollars; walnut kernels, which increased in
quantity from 23,500-to 37,600 quintals aqd im,value from ).7 million to 2.3
million dollars ; and groundnut kernels and hemp. There’was little chapge in
the shipping trade, the total tonnage entered and cleared being 6 fnillion as against
0.2 million tons in the preceding year.

Trade in 1934.
After what the district experienced during the Smo-Japanese hostilities
and the subsequent bandit disturbances in 1933, the withdrawal of the Jap-
anese forces to the Great Wall during the year under review, and the sup-
pression of the irregular troops and bandits by the special police maintained
in the Luanyu area in accordance with the Tangku Truce Agreement brought
a reassuring sense of peace to the distressed country-side from which the port
of Chinwangtao derives its trade. With the retrocession of the town of Shan-
haikwan, which took place on the 10th February, the feeling of unrest
amongst the population wore off and the fear that further fighting might
A94 1EI-TAI-HX) AND CHINWANGTAO
occur was soon dissipated. From this point the situation began to improve;
rehabilitation of the area affected by the events of the previous year com-
menced ; and trade began to recuperate. Further encouragement was provid-
ed by the conclusion of an agreement for the resumption, as from 1st July,
of through traffic on the railway between Peiping and Moukden, after an
interruption of almost three' years: Inasmuch as this traffic’so far is limited
to a passenger service, it is true that the agreement had little direct bearing:
on trade, but, psychologically at least, it had a stabilising effect on the district
and North China generally that was not without a value. Shanhaikwan,
which had ; been under J apanese military occupation for nearly 13 months
before its retrocession to China, during which time the Customs had great-
difficulty in functioning owing to the delicacy of the situation, was particu-
larly encouraged by the general improvement in the situation and by the-
resumption of through railway traffic. This is evidenced by the 175 per cent,
increase in the amount of revenue collected by the Customs at that centre.
The value statistics for the trade of Chinwangtao and district during the
year were as follows: direct import-- from abroad, 2.8 million dollars as
against 2.6 million in 1933; direct exports - to foreign, countries, 6.1 million
dollars as against 5A million in the previous year; coastwise importations of
Chinese produce, 6.2 million '.‘dollars as against 7.1 million; and coastwise
exportations of Chinese pjrcduce, 17 million' dollars as against 19.6 million
dollars. As regards tliese statistics, the rise in the 1hgures for direct imports,
from abroad is fully accounted for by the increase of 275,000 dollars in the
amount realised from the sale of confiscated goods, mostly artificial silk yarn
and sugar, during the year. Of the export staples grouridnuts did exceed-
ingly vvelb under the impetus of the lower tariff rates; ‘ comihoh window glass
to the extent of 120,000 square metres, representing an increase of over 150
per cent., and special window glass to a value of 63,500 dollars were shipped
abroad (Hongkong, Manila, Penang and Singapore); coastwise shipments of
special glass also showed an increase, but, despite drastic reductions in price-
to meet Japanese and Soviet Russian competition in Chinese markets,
coastwise exportations of the cbmnion quality decreased by over 30 per cent.;
and, , as regards the most important commodity o-f all, 2,7 million metric tons
of coal were exported as. against 2.3 million metric tons, in 1933, ; 495,000 tons
of the foreign shipments going to Japan, 136,000 tons to Korea and 41,000
tons4 to Hongkong. In respect to this latter item in the export list, the Kal-
ian ' Mining Administration . met with considerable. difficulties in maintaining
their usual level of business both within China and with foreign countries
during the year under review*. The fall of the Japanese yen in terms of
Chinese dollars had to be contended with; a mineral tax was imppsed by the
Government; labour strikes fomented*, by professional agitators occurred at
the mines ; and in face of keen competition from Japanese and other Chinese ,
coal mines, f.o.b. Quotations had to be reduced from about $8.85 a ton for coal
and $26.80 a ton for coke and in 1933 to $6.85 a ton for coal and $18 for coke
during the year under review. Accordingly, the Administration are still

Newchwang, in latitude 40 deg. 37 min. 37 sec. N., longitude 122 deg. 10
min. 23 sec. E., or 38 miles from the Newchwang Lightship was opened to
foreign trade in May, 1364, and was for more than 40 years the only Treaty
port in Manchuria, now known as Manchoukuo, which comprises the five Pro-
vinces formerly known as Fengtien, Kirin, Heilungkiang, Jehol and Hsingan
and is commonly called by the Chinese the “Tung San Sheng,” or the Three
Eastern Provinces. Manehoukuo is now divided into the 14 provinces of
Heiho, Lungkiang, Sankiang, Pinkiang, Chientao, Kirin, Fengtien, Antung,
•Chinchow, Jehol, and North, South, East and West Hsingan. Newchwang
is situated in the most southern of these three provinces—Liao Ning—
and lies about 13 miles from the mouth of the Liao River, which
empties into the Gulf of Liaotung, a continuation of the Gulf of Pohai. The
proper name of the port is Yingkou, and not Newchwang, which is actually
situated 90 li (30 miles) further up the river. The old town of Newchwang
was designed by Treaty to be opened to trade, but the first foreigners, finding
Yingkow more conveniently situated and more adapted in very respect for the
purposes of trade, quietly installed themselves there and got over the difficulty
by the simple process of changing the name of Yingkow into that of New-
chwang !
The country in the immediate vicinity of the port is flat and unpictures-
que in the extreme, and the town itself has nothing in the way of attractions
for the traveller. The climate, from the foreigner’s point of view, is one of
■the best in China, the summers being comparatively cool, while the winters
are cold and bracing. The hottest summer temperature rarely exceeds 90®
(Fahr ), but cold blasts from the North pull down the “mercury” in winter
months often to 6® and 10° below zero (Fahr.). The river is generally frozen
over for three months of the year, but navigation is practically suspended
for four months, from December to the following March. Formerly New-

The principal trade of Newchwang is the export of beans and bean-
cakes, but this is at present far from flourishing. The town contains many
factories—textiles, matches, paper, etc.
The foreign (non-Japanese) population is now very small.

established.
On March 9, 1932, a new “State of Manchukuo” was established at Hsinking
(formerly Changchun), the new Capital, as an independent Republic, under the
rulership of P’u I, the ex-Emperor of China, dethroned by the Chinese Revolution
of 1911, and the latter was enthroned as the Emperor Kang-te on March 1, 1934.

trade of Mukden has been in grain, such as beans and millet; there is, also, a considerable
trade in skins, furs and bristles. The chief imports are Japanese and European textiles,
hardware, cigarettes, sugar and kerosene oil. The British Cigarette Co. and the Toa

Liaoyang and Chinhsien districts.

Mukden is situated in slightly undulating country a few miles north of the Hunho,
41 tributary of the river Liao, about 110 miles north-east of the port of Newchwang,
.and has stations on the South Manchurian and Manchurian State
Kailways. The f city stands four square, each side being 2,334 li long,
but it is not absolutely north and south. It is walled. The inner
town, which is nearly a mile square, is protected by a stone wall 35
feet high and 15 feet wide on the top, pierced by eight gates, two on each
side, which formerly had high towers above them, but only the one over the “Little

Mtikden, Antung and Hsinking and there is now a service between Mukden

population of Mukden has considerably decreased, while the Japanese has
increased. Estimated total population in June 1935 was 438,000, excluding
the Japanese Railway Settlement, which has a population of about 60,000.
With improved roads within the city, motor traffic has made tremendous strides
during the last year or two, and there are now nearly 1,000 motor trucks and over
1,800 cars registered in Mukden.

HARBIN
Harbim is the principal business centre of North Manchuria. Before the
Chinese Eastern Railway was built it consisted of a Chinese village. Fu Chia
Tien (1®^®), with neighbouring landing-stage (in Russian, 1‘Tristan”),
at which steamers from the Amur used to- call.
The business and chief residential quarters of Harbin are situated on the
right bank of the river Sungari, on the Chinese Eastern Railway, the Soviet
Russian share of which was sold to Manchoukuo on 23rd March, 1935, the
railway lines becoming part of the general system of State Railways
in Manchuria. The main line connects Hsinking (Changchun) with
Manchuli, on the Soviet frontier, -whence the trans-Siberian railway
runs to Moscow. From Harbin a branch line runs south-eastwards
to Suifenho (Pogranichaya). Harbin is also the terminus of the
Lafa— ( ) Harbin railway (formally opened to- restricted traffic in
December 1933), which links North Manchuria wdth Korea. The line
is carried across the river by a railway-bridge, completed in December 1933,
-and joins the railway running northw-ards from Ma Ch’uan K’ou ( )
on the left bank of the river to Elailun (^1^), and thence to Peian-chen
From Peian-chen the line has now been completed to Taheiho on
the Amur River. On 31st August the line from Harbin to Hsinking was
converted to Standard gauge and linked up with the Gafa-Harbin-Taheiho
line by a standard gauge loop.
Haihin is the natural outlet for the vast bean and grain producing dis-
tricts to the North, which are being gradually opened up and developed.
According to census statistics, the population of Greater Harbin at the
end of December, 1934 was approximately 500.526 of whom 21,008 were Jap-
anese, 20,824 Soviet citizens, 34,169 “White” Russians, and 15,000 other
nationalities. These figures have altered however, owing to the departure of
Soviet Railway employees, the influx of Japanese owing' to the sale of the
G. E. Railway.
February 5, 1932 marks an epoch in the history of Harbin. On that day
the town was occupied by Japanese troops, and the Chinese troops withdrew.
The new State of “Manchukuo” was created on the March 1, 1932.
The new Municipality of Greater Harbin was formally inaugurated on
July 1, 1933. It has the status of a “special municipality,” that is to say
it is administered by the Central Government at Hsinking, and not by the
provincial government of Kirin. It comprises not only the Chinese quarter
•of Fuchiatien but the whole of the Pinchiang District, 31 villages in the
district

and the Municinal Council consists of his nominees, who must

citizens, 3 Japanese, 3 Russians, and two other foreigners (one Polish and
one American citizen).
The municipal administration of Greater Harbin is at present in a stage
of transition from the old order to the new. and is. hampered in its work by
lack of funds; but good work has been done in many directions, such as road
construction, town planning schemes and the re-organization of public-utility
enterprises. The proceeds of the Manchurian Government’s First Investment
Enterprise Loan (10,060,000 yen), which was sanctioned in July. 1934, are +o
be devoted in part to city reconstruction, waterworks and similar public
utility enterprises in Hsinking and Harbin.

CHANGCHUN
^ J| Ch'ang ch‘un or Kwanchengtze
This town owes its recent importance to the fact that it is situated at
the junction of the.South Manchuria Railway tJapanese) with the southern
branch (from Harbin) of the Chinese Eastern Railway, while another Rail-
way connects it with the city of Kirin, the capital of the Province of that
name, about 80 miles, distant, nearly due East, and beyond to' Tunhua.
Changchun was opened to International Trad© by Agreement with Japan
in 191'5. There is here a large Japanese Railway Settlement, admirably laid
out, north of the old Town, from which it is separated by the area laid'out
hy the Chinese Authorities as a commercial quarter. North of the Japanese
Railway iSettlemeut lies the town that has grown up around what is now
the southern terminus of the Chinese Eastern Railway.
The country surrounding Changchun is a vast and exceedingly fertile
plain, the produce from which is distributed North, South and East by the
divergent Railways
Since March
Manchuria 9, 1932, Changchun
(or “ Manchoukuo has been
”), recognition, the has
of which Capital of the
not yet beennew State byof
accorded
.any foreign country, with the. exception of San Salvador; and the name of the
town has been changed to Hsinking (“New Capital.”)
Plans have been mooted for elaborate extensions of the existing town, to
be laid out in a style befitting the Capital of an independent Republic of
-some 30,000,000 people.

rities recently completed, a plan whereby the city will r be enlarged so.as. to enable
a million people to reside there, Electric tramways, of a total length of
61.036 kilometres, run along the principal streets, and include a suburban line
to Shahokui (Japanese .reading Shakako) (where the South Manchuria Railway
workshops, are established, 4.5 miles westwards from Dairen), and ope of 2.5
miles to Soshigauru; Reach),i the finest watering- place in -Manchuria.
There is an excellent hotel here, managed . by the , ,gouth Manchuria Hotel
Company and also a number of bun galops which,ipay be hired: by visitors.
Another suburban linp, runs.,to Rokotan, a famous summer resort commanding
glorious scenery. A iinotpr road runs to Star Beach, which is a tract of land
of 392 acres including the golf links,; which are approximately 122. acres. The
construction of the South , Coast road, 49,2 kilometres in length, connecting
Dairen and Port ^ufehur was commenced in .1921 on three sections simultane-
ously, and was completed; in July, 1924. The motor road between'Dairen and
Chinchow was completed in 1929, and motor- buses run regularly. In 1932 a
new North Coast road between Port Arthur , and Chanshuitsu (on the Dairen-
Chinchow road) was- opened. There are also regular bus services between
Port Arthur and Dairen. The Japan Aviation Company inaugurated a daily
mail service between Dairen and Japan on April 1, 1929, and from September
onwards a passenger service was added. The daily air service between Dairen
and Hsinking has been opened by the Manshiu Koku Kabushiki Kaisha since
.November 3, 1932.
A120 DAIREN
The city of Dairen, which has been expanding rapidly owing to1 business
prosperity and increase of population, is lighted by electricity and gas and
has ample telephone facilities. The electric power-house, when completed in
1911, had a capacity of 4,500 kilowatts. This was increased in 1921 to 6,000
kws., and a second power-house of 10,000 kws. was added in June, 1923. This
was increased to 48,000 kilowatts by 1932. There is also a new power station at
Kanseishi (across the bay from Dairen proper) of 54,000 KW. completed in
1934. The city has tar macadam roads with rows of shady trees, and is
well equipped with waterworks, drainage and sewage systems. With the
growth of trade, more particularly in Manchurian (soya) beans, cake,
a number of influential business houses, Japanese, Chinese apd foreign,
have established themselves at the port. The foreign and Japanese com-
munities in April, 1909, organized and opened the Dairen Club. A Gun Club,
Golf Club, and Marine Association are among other institutions of the port.
Of places for public amusement, the Electric Park, designed on an up-to-date
plan and containing all devices for recreation, forms the chief attraction. The
Chinese quarter, situated on the western fringe of the city, has also grown
considerably. The Railway Hospital (now called the “Dairen Hospital”)
deserves special mention, owing partly to its size and partly to the excellence
of its equipment. This hospital affords accommodation for 612 patients and
treats more than 1,600 out-patients of all nationalities on an average every day.
In 1928 a stadium was constructed with seating accommodation for over
50,000. Adjoining
one of several the stadium
in Dairen is a large

throughout the city.
The harbour works had been less than half completed by the Russians.
Some work had been done on the eastern half, and only some blocks dumped
for the eastern breakwater. Only two wharves had been completed; the depth
of thq harbour ranging from 17 to 28 feet, with only 18 feet of water at the
main wharf basin. Since the Japanese occupation, the S.iM.B. Co. has done
much in the extension of harbour facilities and their actual management,
introducing every modern appliance for speedy and commodious cargo handling
and watering and coaling of vessels. To-day the combined length of the
breakwaters is 13,436 feet, and they are 3 to 5 feet above the highest tide. The
deep water area inside the breakwater is 3,107,000 square metres. The en-

as the others is making rapid progress; When it is completed there will be
52 berths of which 42 can accommodate ocean-going ships. There are also the
two dangerous goods” piers at Jijiko, outside the main harbour, and another
new pier at Kanseishi to serve the Manchurihn -ChemicalIndustries' Go’s
factory. In order still further to lessen congestion at the wharvek, a r ew pier
was constructed at Chn Ghingtze (called in Japanese Kansejshi) hcross the bay,
which attends exclusively to the export of Fushun coal. The wharves containing
330,699 square metres, with railway sidings, are lighted by electricity and
have up-to-date appliances for the handling of cargo. At the east end of
the shore, an oil pier, 558 feet long with a. depth of 30 feet of water has been
constructed

and the Bank of Chosen has an Exchange Office in this pavilion, which
also contain showrooms, dining roomsj stalls for the sale of goods,
etc. On the islands of Sanshantao, at the entrance to Dairen Bay,
stands a lighhouse, and two other lighthouses have been erected at

The more settled conditions experienced at Chefoo after the terminations
of the hostilities referred to in the last report continued to be enjoyed during
the year under review, and some of the proposed civic improvements were
carried out. An amusement park on the same lines as the one at Tsinanfu was
opened to the public in January; an afcwestation scheme was inaugurated with
the idea of ultimately creatiAg^ aiibtheil park for the public on the southern
hills; the bund promenade was widened; and plans were made to extend the
macadamised roadways both, inside and outside of tire city boundries. Apart
from public wofks carried *biit with a vieV to adding to'the amenities of the
place as a seaside resort, the continuance of the building boom in the form of
private undertaking would appear to indicate that the port is also prospering
«to some extent in the general way; but:following statistics .and. comments do
:.not reveal any immediate change for: the better in the external: trade: of the
district although many of the staple exports-did fairly well. The statistics in
question read, according to the value: direct importation from abroad, 9.7
million dollars as against 7.6 million-in the preceding year; coastwise importa-
tions of Chinese produce,■ 21.7 million dollars as against &0.1 million; dfrect
exportation to foreign coiin'tfies, v l ; 7.9 milliop dollars as'against 10.3 mrllion;
and coastwise
dollars: exportati'dhsJ
The total value of the 13 .3 outward
thillioh;dollars as* against registered
trade, therefore, 15.8 .milliona million
decline
amounting to some 19 per cent. ; the visible improvement in the inward trade
amounted to 13 per .cent. ; and the net result was a slight decrease1 in the total
value of that part of the trade of the port for which Customs records, are
available. It will be seen that the term “visible improvement’’ has been, used
, in connection with the import trade, This term was adopted advisedly, because
of the-extent of the illicit trade cannot be gauged with: exactitude. The known
. facts are that the total value recorded above - for the direct foreign import
trade (9.7 million dollars) included no less than 2 million dollars worth of
illicit importations seized by the Customs, while approximately otte-third of
the port’s total revenue for the year under view was collected in the form of
duties on confiscated goods. .Undoubtedly the geographical position of the
Cheioo district, together with. tfie • indented, -.nature.of the. cjpastline, makes this
area peculiarly favourable for the,.conduGt of smuggling operations, and the
. statistics just quoted reflect very clearly the value to the country of the enegetic
preventive measures now being undertaken. Four new preventive steamers
■frere appointed to the district during the year, and, although it was'only in
CHEFOO Al2t'
June that they bommerfeed‘ operations, .more than 130 valuable seizures had
been made by these vessels before the close of the period under- -review. with, the • -
help,, it should be added, pi the one, other preventive steamer stationed in this
area. As regards legitimate fpreign imports, it may he said that Japan had
practically a monopoly of the cotton piece goods trade in the local market,
very little being iniported legally, however, until after the tariff was reduced

LUNGKOW
D S
Lungkow, a sub-office undet the 1 Chefoo Customs Commissioner, was
•declared a trading port
until l^t .'November, 1915. inIt November;,
is about _601914, milesbutduewaswestnotofformally
Chefoo, opened
on the
west coast of the Shantung promontory. It lies about
of the Japanese port, Oairen, and is the nearest port to the rich Manchurian 100 miles south-west
provinces. Newchwang and Tientsin are each about 200 ipiles, distant from
Lungkow.
The port is well sheltered by the jChimatao Peninsula, and is the most
northern one in -China proper open to the sea throughout the year, though
the Harbour is, sometimes partly frozen over, greatly handicapping the move-
ments of the clumsy cargo boats. This generally happens in January. The
harbour of Lungkow (Dragon’s Mouth) is seven miles wide at the entrance,
and has a sand bar which forms a breaktvater for five miles adfOss the open-
ing. The inner harbour has a low-water mark of from ll to 14 feet and storms
seldom1 disturb the shipping inside. It is hot to be expected that the Chinese
Government will,for many years at least, undertake extensive harbour im-
provements
for a great atd?al(Lungkow;

sand, a con-
siderable ,ipcre,ase : in- the depth, of hvater available could probably be brought
about by dredging operations. Lmtil such time as recognition,of its favourable
geographical situation forces the bestowal of increased communications, to-
gether with harbour improvement similar to those at 'Chefoo,• any increase pf
trade will be slow and must come from an increase in exports and a gradual
elevation of, the scale of living with an attendant increase in imports. A
handsome new reinforeed concrete piet* at the New Settlement has been com-
pleted, but has never been used and is slowly falling into decay, while the
roads leading to it have been allowed to deteriorate. During 1924 develop-
ment of the town northwards was planned with some success, but it has since,
been , abandoned. Air,, electric light. works, long anticipated, is now • an
accomplished fact. , .
■ The-'town of Lungkow has a. population of about 12,664 of Which 19 are
Japanese, but it as estimated^ that Vithin a radius of about five miles there is
a population of 130,000. A level stretch of country behind Lungkow, thickly
populated and very fertile, gives promise of the port some day assuming con-
siderable importance The proposed Chefoo-Weihsien Railway Would connect
Lungkow with both Chefoo and Weihsien, thus with north and-central Shan-
tung. The Weihsien-Lung-kpw-Chefoo motor highway could be easily conve'rted
into a railway. In the meantime, this new, road brings more, trade to the
port, although closed to traffic in wet Weather, j;he r,ainy ,season being July
and August. The transport of mails and cargo is considerable in normal
times. The beach and isthmus of Lungkow are of a loose drifting sand, which,
in stormy weather, coupled with dust ifrom the numerous coal supply depots
pjn all sides, mar what otherwise anight, easily become a seaside resort for those
work is in the near neighbourhood. The climate is slightly cooler than that
■of Chefoo, and no doubt one of the healthiest in China.
Trade ix 1934
In contrast with the drought experienced in, many part of China, t(here
was abundant rainfall in the Lungkow district , of Shantung duidng the, year
under review, and/crop-conditions, were generally favourable. Adverse factors
LUNGKOW Am
in the trade situation were the suspension of traffic on thef Chefoo-Weihsien
motor road in the early part of the year, owing to bandit activities in the
western part of the province; and piratical activities in the Yellow River
delta, which compelled trading junks from Litsing and Chanhua to sail in
consort and fully armed against emergencies. On the whole, however, it was
a fairly tranquil year. Harvests were good, and the commercial benefits
arising out of the good motor roads and the long-distance telephone facilities
began to be appreciated. A new electric generator provided better lighting
for the town : a telephone system was installed during the autumn; and; some
new wharves and godowns were constructed. A slight downward tendency in
the trade under Customs cognizance, however, is exhibited by the value
statistics, which were as follows: direct imports from abroad, 2.3 million
dollars as against 1.8 million in 1933; coastwise importations of Chinese
merchandise, 6 million dollars as against 6.2 million; direct exports to foreign
countries,-3.2 million dollars as against 3.6 million; and coastwise exportations
of Chinese merchandise, 2.4 million dollars as against 3.1 million dollars. As
regards foreign imports, the entry of 140,854 kilogrammes of artificial silk
shown in the returns, as against onlf 12,690 kilogrammes in the previous year,
was due to seizures made by the Customs preventive staff and not to an
increase in the legitimate trade in this commodity; and the increase in the
returns for foreign sugar from 4,260 quintals in 1933 to 16,570 quintals during
the year under review was chiefly due to the same cause. The decline regis-
tered by the Customs statistics for cotton piece goods, etc., does not appear to
indicate a lessened demand for these Japanese goods from Dairen and else-
where, as, owing to the favourable exchange rates for the year, such mer-
chandise penetrated the market in considerable quantities either via other
ports or partly, it is feared, through illicit channels. Favourable exchange,
and the high cost of rail and road transport from the Shantung mines,
accounts for the increase of over 10,000 metric tons in the arrivals of the
Fushun and Peipiao coal from Manchuria. Of the export staples, shipments
of vermicelli to foreign countries (principally Hongkong) increased by 7,503
quintals to a total of 78,494 quintals, and prices were favourable at from
$26 to $31 per quintal; shipments of live cattle, chiefly from Dairen, reached
record figures for the port at 2,270 head; and heavy increases were also
recorded for fresh vegetables, straw hats, Chinese pens, and joss sticks. The
export trade in most of the principle staples of this port, therefore, was-
exceedingly good.

Another quiet year was passed in the Weihaiwei district, ahd' the
local cqnditiops w’ere favotirable to trade. The available- Customs statistics
for the port were as follows: acdording to\thq value: direct foreign inqporfs,
1.8 million dollars as against 1.2 million in the preceding year ; coastwise
importations of Chinese merchandise, 3.t2 million dollars as against 3.1 million;
and coastwise exportations of Chipese produce, 1.3 million dollars as against
1.4 million dollars.. The total vplue of'the tirade • pf. Weihaiwei (i.e., ^hat part
of the trade represeptqd by these statistics) in round figures, therefore, happens
tq be exactly the same as in 1933; but, for the year under review, there was
a somewhat noticeable iqcrease in the value of both foreign and coastwise
imports'and an equally ppticeable fall, in the value of the exports to foreign
countries it is; Uatuial to-look1 to the statistics for the grpundhat i>rade'r, 'this
commodity always -having been the chiejf mainstay df' the port ; and the figures
reveal at once, while there wgs quite a good increase in the quantitieri shipped,
there was' recorded a decrease in value more than sufficient to account for the
decline in value of. the whole' foreign,; export trade clurine the ypar under
review. . The; statistics : forMhis section! of trade were as follows: groundnuts
in shell, 35,000 quiritals as .against 41(000 ouintals, valued at 262,000 dollars
as against 419,000 dollars: groundnuts! shelled, 195,000 quintals as against
176,000 quintals, valued at only 1,888,000 dollars as against 2.605,000 dollars.
The statistics for the ;coa;styirise exportations of this commodity; slao *how a
quantitative increase accompamed by a decrease in values. Indeedy owing to
the poor price offered 1 for this prPdurt, the complete collapse of this 'trade*
seems to have been averted only

larger markets in South China and renewing interests in Hongkong, Manila,.

Happily, with the increased demand, prices gradually rose to a more reasonable
level, and the prospects for the groundnut trade are much brighter than they
appeared to be at the beginning of the year. Ocean-going steamers calling
at the port exclusively for groundnuts numbered 44. The fishing industry
prospered at Weihaiwei, and exports of fresh and salted fish advanced in
comparison with the figures .for 1933. Fishing vessels under sail have for
some time been giving way gradually to vessels under power, and there am
now 44 motor trawlers registered at the port.

4H B Kiiu-chm
Tsingtao, situated at the entrapce to Kiaochau Bay in Shantung, was
occupied by a German squadron on, November 14th, 1897, in consequence, of
the murder of two German missinnafies, arid Gfrirmany obtained from China
a lease of the territory for the terin of 89 years When the great war in
Europe broke out in 19.14, Japan, under 'the terms of her treaty of alliance
with Great Britain, intervened because the peace of the Far East was menaced
by the German occupation of Kiaochau, inasmuch as, the Colony constituted
a naval base for operations in the East against the shipping and territories
of the countries with whom Germany was at war. Shortly after the out-
break of the war Japan advised Germany to disarm all her armed vessels in
Chinese and Japanese waters, and tp hand Kiaochau over to Japan with a
view to its eventual restoration

By the Sino-Japanese Treaty of 1915, China engaged herself to recognise all
matters that might be agreed upon between the Japanese Government and the
German Government respecting the disposition of all the rights,, interests and
concessions, which, in virtue of treaties or otherwise, Germany possessed
vis-a-vis China in relation to the province of Shantung. This instrument was.
recognised at the time by Great Britain and France. At the Conference of
the Allies possessed
Germany at Paris, should

Government,thatin any rights which

Japan's original undertaking, especially as, since that undertaking was given,.
China had become one of the Allies. As they failed to obtain satisfaction,
they declined to sign the Peace Treaty with Germany, which provided that
Germany’s rights in Shantung should be transferred to Japan. The matter
came before the
tung Treaty, Washington
under Conference
which it was providedinthat
1921,theandterritory
the result wasbetherestored
should Shan-
to China. A Sino-Japanese Commission was subsequently appointed to give
effect to the provisions of the Treaty, and this body met in 1922 and arranged
terms which are set forth in the Treaty section of this volume.
While Kiaoehau was in German occupation, the special attention of the-
Administration was devoted to agricultural, commercial and mining deve-
lopment in the Protectorate and Shantung. The local administration con-
sisted of a Council, composed of alb the heads of the several administrative
departments under the personal supervision of the Governor and four mem-
bers chosen from the civil population and appointed for two years. The Pro-
tectorate developed to an unlooked-for extent under this system of admini-
stration, which enabled all the vital questions at issue, such as legal rights,,
landed properties, land-tax assessment, school and church matters, to be sat-
isfactorily settled. The object of the Administration in dealing with the
land question was to secure for every settler the lasting possession of his plot,
thereby opposing unhealthy land speculation. Tsingtao, on the 2nd Septem-
ber, 1898, wras declared a free port. The harbour had all the advantages of
a Treaty port, and as a free port especially recommended itself as an em-
porium, since the merchant could there store, free of duty, his wares from
abroad or his raw materials brought from the interior of China. The Chinese
import duties were at first levied only on goods brought to Tsingtao by
sea, when they were transported beyond the borders of the Protectorate into
Chinese territory- The Chinese export. duties were at first levied only on
goods brought from the interior of China, when they were shipped, from the
German Protectorate to any other place. But in December 1905 a
new Convention came into force whereby Tsingtao ceased to be a
free port, and the Imperial Maritime Customs began to collect
duties there as well as all the. other Treaty ports of China,
the Convention stipulated that 20 per cent of "the import duty collected
at Tsingtao should be paid to the Imperial German Government. The Com-
missioner of Customs in his report -for 1906 comniented on the arrangement
as follows:—“The principal object of the arrangeni;ent, which, morepyer,
afforded the opportunity of a political rapprochement and material conces-
sions for mutual benefit on .both sides, was the creation and promotion of
trade and commerce between the Pachtgebiet and the Chinese hinterland.
The results of the, first epoch have conclusively proved the wisdom of this
novel arrangement. Under it trade developed beyond expectation and rose
from a value of Taels 2,000,000 in 1899 to Tls. 22,000,000 in 1905, and Tsingtao,
the former dilapidated fishing village, grew into a handsome city with a
flourishing mercantile community and a considerable number of manufactur-
ing establishments, giving promise of good profits and further development.
Its success emboldened the merchants, foreign and Chinese, to ask for, and
the Government to agree to, going a step further and arranging for the
limitation of the free area, which formerly comprised the whole Pachtgebiet,
to the harbour, on much the Same lines as the German free ports Hamburg
and Bremen. The chief advantage of this step lies in the removal of Custom
control from the railway stations to the free area, and the consequent free-
A16
AI40 TSINGTAO (KIAOOHAU)
dom of goods and passengers to pass in and out, from and to the hinterland,
without hindrance or control of any kind—a traffic simplification from which
a considerable increase in trade was expected.” The new arrangement
inspired confidence in the stability and future of the port and attracted
artisans, traders, and wealthy Chinese firms, which last, hitherto dealing
with Chefoo, had until now kept aloof from the place. The, total value of
trade increased from Hk. Tls. 30,700,000 in 1906 to Hk. Tls. 39,700,000 m
1909, and reached a. total of Hk. Tls. 56,330,321 for the year 1912, or an in-
crease of 20% over the previous year, notwithstanding the disadvantageous
conditions for trade caused by the revolutionary troubles in China.'

and lack of access to rivers or lakes. The Telephone Administration has also
been keeping abreast of local development and has undertaken the installa-
tion of 400 additional instruments. Last, but by no means least, the greatest

According to a Chinese census, the population has increased by over 18,000
persons during 1933 and now stands at a total of 444,690 inhabitants. The
most important development on hand at present is the construction of a new
concrete and granite pier in the Great Harbour, a basin reserved for the
use of ocean and coastwise steamers. The work was commenced in July, 1932
and, according to the terms of the contract, should be completed in four years.

TSINAN
Tsinan, the capital of the province of Shantung, has the distinction of
feeing the first city in the Chinese Empire in which a Foreign Commercial
Settlement was voluntarily opened by the Government of China. The date
■of its inauguration was January 10th, 1906. Within the area of this Settle-
ment, which lies outside the West Gate of Tsinan city, foreign merchants are
allowed to reside and trade and lease land; the leases are for terms of thirty
years, renewable for a similar term. The control of the Settlement is vested
in a Municipal Administration presided over by a Mayor appointed by the

upwards from North to South. Situated in the south-west suburb are
magnificent springs giving forth many tons of water per minute, and
the streams from these natural fountains flow through the city to. a, lake
situated on the north side. This abundance of water tends to make
Tsinan one of the cleanest as well ag one of the healthiest cities in
the Republic. The population was computed by the chief of Police at
the end of May, 1933, to be about 428,011, about one-twentieth of whom
profess the Mohammedan faith. Quite a considerable number of foreigners and foreign
institutions have established themselves in the Foreign Settlement, and several
have erected large and imposing buildings. The chief of these are the British
Consulate-General, the Japanese Consulate-General, the German Consulate General,
the American Consulate, Japanese hospital and the Chinese Post Office. Residential

which is a department of this University, has completed a large new unit during the
summer of 1935. The Tientsin-Pukqw Railway Co. owns a large piece of ground in
the Settlement, and has built offices and dwelling-houses for members of the staff
thereon.
With the introduction of the use of machinery Tsinan is becoming more
important as an industrial city. There are now about 40 industrial establish-

Tsinan is connected by rail with Tsingtao (Kiaochau), distant 280 mile*,
Tientsin 200 miles,, and with Pukow on the Yangtsze. It is also connected
by a small river now in process of canalization, with Yang Chao Kou, on; the
Gulf of Chihli, distant 146 miles, whence there are occasional steamers to
Ghefoo. Tsinan stands five miles south of the Huang-ho or Yellow River, and
in spite of some difficulties of navigation there is a considerable! junk traffic

In December, 1910, with the approval of the Diplomatic Body in Peiping,,
Mr. H. von Heidenstam, c.E., and Captain in the Royal (Swedish Corps of
Engineers, was appointed Engineer-in-Chief. He prepared a detailed “Pro-
ject fpr 'the Continued WhangpOo Regulation'” with plans and estimates for
a period of ten years involving a total outlay of six million Taels, which was-
approved by all concerned: but could not. be started owing to lack of funds.
A practical scheme for the carrying but of Mr. von Heidenstam’s project was
ultimately evolved by the Shanghai Chairtbef of ’ CorgmerCe. This was based
on the levying of 3 per cent., conservancy tax on all Customs duties and
per milk; ,qij value on to be. married on by a Board consisting of the Shanghai Commissioner for
Foreign Affairs, the Commissioner of . Customs and the Harbour Master.
After' lengthy'negotiatiohs dukihg' 1911 and 1912, this scheme, with some
mihbr hmendmehts, was app'rqved by the 'Government ih April, 1912. The
scheme, was put into operation on May 15th, 1912, according to Mr. von Hpx-’ -
denstam’s project. A new parallel jetty on the eastern, side of the former
Outer Bar, training-works in the Upper Rivey and the dredging of some
7,000,000 cubic yards, mostly at convexes and in the Astrsea Channel, were
executed. The former Outer Bar, where only 16 feet of water were available
in 190.7, was thus finally eliminated, and the shallowest reach in the whole-
river became over 24 feet deep over a width of 600 feet in the narrowest places.
In 1915 and 1916 thfe narrow reach at the Chinese City at Nantao was widened
by dredging, and a new bund was created fof .the'Chinese City. Towards-
the end of 1916 the Board acquired the first installation of its own dredging:
planf. At the end of 1921, Mr. von Heidenstam’s project, started in 1912,
had been practically completed, at a cost of about five million Taels, as-
against the estimate of six millions; For many years it had been foreseen
that the rapid growth of shipping in the port and the increase in the size-
of the ships would necessitate a general port policy including if possible a-
regulation of, the great bar in thb Yangtze below Woosung. After investiga-
tions,’ extending back to 13ii5, into the state of the Yangtze Estuary and into-
the possibilities for future harbour development, a Committee of Consulting,
Engineers was , convened in 1921 who reported in favour of a reorganization
of the Board into a Port Authority with adequate powers to dredge the
Yangtsze bar and to execute harbour works. Their report has not yet been
acted on.
The Harbour in point of tonnage now ranks 5th among the principal
ports of the world. Shanghai serves a hinterland of some 750,000 square miles and is-

The present position of Shanghai as a world port is due almost entirely
to the activities of the Whangpoo Conservancy Board. In 1905, as stated,,
the Outer Bar at the mouth of the River had a depth of 15 feet at low water;
while three miles up stream the River divided into two channels-—one of eight
feet depth, and the other, of eleven feet depth (the Inner Bar). A channel
of at least 25 feet at lowest water now exists! This remarkable progress may

SHANGHAI A157
Histoey
The origin of the name “Shanghai,” which literally means “Upper Sea,”
;has been much debated, but probably like Kaoch’ang, “High Reeds,” and
.Kiangwan, “River Bend,” names still existing in the neighbourhood, was
mouth of the Yangtsze. It does not appear in history till the time of the
Mongol Empire. We find at various periods, from after Han downwards,
that K’wenshan, Changshu, iKiating, etc., were constituted into separate
hsiens, and that in the year 1292 Shanghai was likewise erected into a
separate district and placed under Sungkiang-fu, which itself had only fifteen
years previously been divided from Kiahsing-fu, now in the province of
Chekiang. Prior to that it had been made a Customs’ station on account
-of its favourable position for trade, but its growth had been slow, and for
centuries the chief trade of the lower district had been concentrated at the
.mouth of the Liu-ho, now an insignificant creek which, passing T’aitsang,
.joins the Yangtsze some twenty-five miles above Woosung.
With the silting up of the Liu-ho and its eventual extinction as a navi
'.gable channel, largely brought about apparently by the opening of the
Whangpoo before alluded to, Shanghai became the principal shipping port
of this region; and such it had been for some centuries when it was visited
in 1832 by Mr. H. H. Lindsay, head of the late firm of Lindsay & Co.,
accompanied by the Rev. Chas. Gutzlaff, in the Lord Amherst, with a view
to opening up trade, and from that time begins its modern history. Mr.
-Lindsay in his report of the visit says that he counted upwards of four
hundred junks passing inwards every day for seven days, and found the
place possessed commodious wharves and large warehouses. Three years later
it was visited by Dr. Medhurst, who confirmed the account given by Mr. Lind-
say. On the 13th June. 1842, a British fleet under Vice-Admiral Sir William
Parker, and a military force of 4,000 men under Sir Hugh Gough, captured
•the Woosung forts, which mounted 175 guns, and took the hsien (district)
city of Paoshan. On the 19th, after a slight resistance, the force gained
possession of Shanghai, the officials and a large proportion of the inhabitants
having fled the previous evening, although great preparations had been made
for the defence, 409 pieces of cannon being taken possession of by the British.
'The people, however, rapidly returned and business was resumed. The same
-force afterwards captured Chapoo and Chinkiang, after which the fleet,
having blockaded the Imperial Canal and anchored opposite to Nanking, the
treaty of Nanking was signed, and the ports of Swatow, Amoy, Foochow,
Ningpo, and Shanghai were opened to trade. The city was evacuated on the
23rd June. The walls, three and a half miles in circuit with seven gates,
were erected at the time of the Japanese invasion, in the latter part of the
sixteenth century.
The ground selected by Captain Balfour, the first British, Consul for a
‘Settlement for his nationals lies about half a mile north of the city walls,
between the Yangkingpang and Soochow creeks, and extends backward from
the river to what was still, recently a ditch chnnecting the'two, afterwards
called the Defence Creek, thus forming what may be termed an island a mile
square. Both the Yangkingpang and the Defence Creek have now been cul-
werted and made into broad roadways, known respectively as Avenue Edward
VII. and Thibet Road The port was formally declared open to trade on the
•17th November, 1843. Some years Were occupied in draining and laying out
the ground, which was mostly a marsh with numerous ponds and creeks. The
foreigners in the nieantime lived at Nantao, a suburb net ween the- city and
the river, the British Consulate being in the city. In two years a few houses
were built in the Settlement, and by 1849 most foreigners had taken up their
residence in it. By that time twenty-five firms were established, and the
foreign residents numbered a hundred, including seven ladies. In that year
an English Church was built, and on 21st November the foundation of the
-A158 ■,SHANGHAI
Homan Catholic Cathedral at Tungkadoo was laid. The French were, in
1849, granted the ground between the cijly walls and the British Settlement
on the same terms; and, in exchange for help rendered in driving out the
rebels who had seized the city in 1853, got a grant of the land extending,
for about a mil© to the south between the city walls and the river. They
have since-- by purchase, extended-the bounds of the• Concession westward to

consequence of an increase in the wheelbarrow tax. It was suppressed by the
Volunteers and sailors from the men-of-war in port, without loss of life. The Consuls
and Municipal Council having submitted to the dictation of the Wheelbarrow Guild, an
indignation public meeting was held on the 7th April, the largest meeting ever held in
the Settlements up to that date. At this meeting the action of the Authorities was so
-strongly condemned that the Council resigned. A new Council was elected and the tax
enforced, the French Municipal Council increasing their tax in like proportion. Another
riot took place on 16th and 17th July, 1898, owing to the Authorities of the French
Settlement having decided to remove the “ Ningpo Joss House.” The French Volun-
teers were called out and a force landed from men-of-war, which measures speedily sup-
pressed the riot, fifteen natives being reported killed and many wounded. In 1900, Great
Britain, France, Germany, and Japan landed troops at Shanghai for the protection of
the Settlements, the presence of the troops being deemed necessary owing to the threat-
ening aspect of the natives at the time Operations were being conducted in the north in
consequence of the Boxer rising. They remained as a garrison until December, 1902, when
they were withdrawn. In December, 1905, differences arose between the local Chinese
and British officials regarding the jurisdiction of the British Assessor of the Mixed
Court, leading to a situation that called for the intervehtion of an armed foreign force.
Inflammatory placards were posted throughout the native city and in the Settlement
itself urging a general strike for the purpose of asserting so-called Chinese rights, and
on the 18th December serious rioting occurred in the streets, when several foreigners
were subjected to rough usage at the hands of the mob. Determined attacks were made
on the Hongkew and Louza police stations., The latter, station was set on fire and
partially wrecked, i Encouraged by this success the rioters directed their incendiary
efforts to the annexe of the Hotel Metropole. Their designs were happily frustrated by
a force of bluejackets and volunteers who arrived On the scene, but it was not before
•shots had been fired, and a few of the rioters killed that the mob dispersed. In the
Nanking Road also the police found it necessary to fire on the mob with ball cartridge,
two rounds of blank cartridges having failed to overawe them. In addition to the
Volunteers, the Municipal police, European and Sikh, who appeared on the streets armed
with rifles and fixed bayonets, upwards of 3,000 bluejackets were landed from warships
