Report of the Registrar of Companies, under Section 18 of the Life Insurance Com- panies Ordinance, 1907, (Ordinance No. 11 of 1907), upon the Valuation and Report of Mr. H. R. Sturt, F.I.A., for the five years ending 20th March, 1915.

The Valuation Balance Sheet, which is based on the Company's balance sheet made up to the 20th March, 1915, shows liabilities $1,048,756.55 and assets $843,044.02, a deficiency in assets of $205,712.53. In the Valuation Balance Sheet the house proper- ties owned by the Company are valued at $488,097.47, the price paid for them by the Company. I have, however, been supplied with a valuation of these properties as on the 20th March, 1915, made by Mr. A. G. HEWLITT, Lic. R.I.B.A., which gives their then value as being $637,000, an increase of $148,902.53. This valuation, if correct, reduces the deficiency in assets to $56,810.

DESPATCHES FROM THE SECRETARY OF STATE.

No. 46.

CIRCULAR.

DOWNING STREET,

20th December, 1916.

SIR,--With reference to Mr. Bonar Law's Circular despatch of the 30th of August,. on the subject of the Imperial Institute, I have the honour to transmit to you the accom- panying copy of three Resolutions adopted by an Inter-Departmental Committee which was appointed to define the spheres of work of the Imperial Institute and the Commercial Intelligence Branch of the Board of Trade.

 2. I have to explain that, in view of the increased attention which has been paid, especially since the outbreak of war, to the importance of obtaining the fullest possible information as to the resources of the Empire in raw materials, with the object of the utilisation of those resources for purposes of commercial development, it was felt that some danger existed lest the work in this direction which was being carried on by the Department and the Institute might lead to an overlapping of their functions and to con- sequent waste of energy.

 3. It was accordingly decided to appoint an Inter-Departmental Committee over which the Right Honourable Lewis Harcourt, M.P., then First Commissioner of Works, was good enough to preside, and it is hoped that the decision embodied in the enclosed Resolutions, which have been unanimously agreed to by the Committee, will ensure a satisfactory delimitation of the spheres of work of the two departments as well as close and cordial co-operation between them.

4. I shall be glad if you will take steps, by publishing this despatch in the official Gazette or in such other manner as you may deem suitable, to give publicity to the new arrangement.

I have, &c.,

WALTER H. LONG.

The Officer Administering the Government of

HONGKONG.

[Enclosure in Circular despatch dated 20th December, 1916.

RESOLUTIONS OF INTER-DEPARTMENTAL COMMITTEE ON CO-OPERATION BETWEEN THE BOARD OF TRADE AND THE IMPERIAL INSTITUTE.

(1) The Imperial Institute should deal with enquiries as to the sources of supply of raw materials produced within the Empire in connexion with their industrial and com- mercial utilisation. Either the Board of Trade or the Imperial Institute may deal with enquiries as to supplies immediately available, but the Board of Trade should as a rule deal with enquiries for ordinary supplies of well-recognised raw material through the usual trade channels.

(2) The Imperial Institute should undertake all necessary investigations of the value and uses of raw materials produced within the Empire.

(3) The Imperial Institute and the Board of Trade should co-operate in cases in which the questions concerned involve special statistical and trade information as well as technical treatment.

RETURN PASSAGES TO PLACES ABROAD FOR OFFICERS ON RETIREMENT,

DEMOBIĻIZATION, OR TERMINATION OF CONTRACT.

  1. When an officer or individual resident abroad who proceeded to this country after the declaration of war and rejoined or was given a commission in the British Army either direct or after a period of service in the ranks desires to return to the place whence he came at the public expense, he should apply to the War Office for return passage.

  The application should give full particulars of destination, and should be accom- panied by a certificate that this is the place whence he came, and by a statement showing whether he is prepared to embark by the first available opportunity. Application for passage should not be made too long in advance.

  First-class accommodation will be provided in all cases except as stated in para. 3, or where a lower class has been agreed upon at the commencement of the individual's employment.

  2. The right to such passage must be exercised within six months of the date of retirement, demobilization, or completion of contract, except for reasons of ill health, when passage may be deferred until the officer is medically fit to embark."

  3. (a) Those whose services are terminated on account of misconduct, and (b) those who voluntarily resign their commissions before the end of the war will forfeit right to return passage. Exceptional cases will, however, be considered by the War Office when, if granted, passages under (a) will be second class, and under (b) first class.

  4. This concession will apply only to officers, other than those granted honorary commissions only, who have been employed or re-employed for the period of the war, the intention being to send back those who have left their homes to give temporary service during the present emergency.

13th April, 1917.

CLAUD SEVERN,

Colonial Secretary.

AT THE COURT AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE,

THE 10TH DAY OF JANUARY, 1917.

PRESENT,

THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY IN COUNCIL.

W HEREAS, on the 11th day of March, 1915, an Order was issued by His Majesty

    in Council directing that all ships which sailed from their ports of departure after the 1st day of March, 1915, might be required to discharge in a British or Allied port goods which were of enemy origin or of enemy destination or which were enemy property:

And whereas such Order in Council was consequent upon certain Orders issued by the German Government purporting to declare, in violation of the usages of war, the waters surrounding the United Kingdom a military area, in which all British and Allied merchant vessels would be destroyed, irrespective of the lives of passengers and crew, and in which neutral shipping would be exposed to similar danger, in view of the uncertainties of naval warfare:

And whereas the sinking of British, Allied, and neutral merchant ships, irrespective of the lives of passengers and crews, and in violation of the usages of war, has not been confined to the waters surrounding the United Kingdom, but has taken place in a large portion of the area of naval operations:

   And whereas such illegal acts have been committed not only by German warships but by warships flying the flag of each of the enemy countries:

   And whereas on account of the extension of the scope of the illegal operations carried out under the said German Orders, and in retaliation therefor, vessels have been required under the provisions of the Order in Council aforementioned to discharge in a British or Allied port goods which were of enemy origin or of enemy destination or which were enemy property, irrespective of the enemy country from or to which such goods were going or of the enemy country in which was domiciled the person whose property they

were:

""

And whereas doubts have arisen as to whether the term "enemy in articles 3 and 4 of the said Order in Council includes enemy countries other than Germany:

   Now, therefore, His Majesty is pleased, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:-

66

""

   1. In articles 3 and 4 of the said Order in Council of the 11th March, 1915, afore- mentioned, the terms enemy destination and "enemy origin" shall be deemed to apply and shall apply to goods destined for or originating in any enemy country, and the term "enemy property" shall be deemed to apply and shall apply to goods belonging to any person domiciled in any enemy country.

   2. Effect shall be given to this Order in the application of the said Order in Council of the 11th March, 1915, to goods which previous to the date of this Order have been discharged at a British or Allied port, being goods of destination or origin or property which was enemy though not German, and all such goods shall be detained and dealt with in all respects as is provided in the said Order in Council of the 11th March, 1915.

any such person or body of persons from such list is not an authority or licence to trade with such person or body of persons.

No. 194. The following Correspondence between the Military Service Commis- sion and His Excellency the Governor is published, by command.

The Military Service Commission.

HONGKONG, 20th April, 1917.

SIR,--We, the Commissioners appointed by Your Excellency, have the honour to submit a general report up to the present date concerning the enquiry upon which at your direction we have been engaged.

2. Under the terms of our appointment published in the Gazette of the 9th February last, we were instructed to enquire "whether and to what extent, having regard both to Imperial needs and to local conditions, it is practicable and expedient that male British subjects of military age, resident in the Colony, who wish to volunteer for active service with His Majesty's forces outside the Colony, should be allowed to leave for that purpose And we were desired to report in particular our findings and recommendations. The scope of the enquiry was subsequently narrowed by the manifestly necessary exclusion of the Naval and Military Establishments; and later by the withdrawal from our purview of the Civil Establishment under circumstances which appear in our correspondence with you attached in Appendix A.

3. On the 9th February we published a notification inviting applications from men of military age; and in response one hundred and eighty-two candidates, exclusive of those in the employment of the Naval, Military and Civil Authorities, sent in their names as shewn in Appendix B. Of these, three afterwards withdrew their applications, two proved ineligible on account of age, and fifty-two were found to be physically unfit. In the result therefore we have heard and considered the applications of the remaining one hundred and twenty-five men, and have reported to you from time to time our findings. and recommendations in each of these cases individually.

   4. The Commission was informed at the outset that the Military Authorities do not require for local defence, and would not detain, any man whom the Commission should find could otherwise be spared for active service outside the Colony.

   5. The Commission first met on the 13th February, and held frequent sittings between that time and the 19th instant for the purpose of considering applications. All the members were present at every meeting, except the last two when a member was prevented from attending by illness. We found, in consequence of our investigation, that of the candidates before us forty-three could be spared; all of whom have, we under- stand, been informed by the Government that they are at liberty to leave the Colony for active service. Their names are given in Appendix C.

   6. In almost every instance employers have undertaken to keep situations open, and in most cases have agreed to make some monetary grant by way of part salary or other- wise. So far as we are aware, no impediment or delay has been interposed by an employer to the departure of any of these forty-three men, except in one case which has been referred by letter to London. We desire to express our appreciation of the liberal attitude adopted by employers generally in the matter of releasing and making provision for their men. The Government has provided second class passages by mail to England, and has guaranteed the provision of return passages to the Colony.

   7. We are satisfied that, apart from the direct result of our investigation, the appointment, or anticipated appointment, of the Commission indirectly brought about the release of an additional number of men, the practicability of sparing whom was so apparent as to render reference to the Commission unnecessary. A list (unavoidably incomplete) of thirty-one men, other than those appearing before the Commission, for whom passages have recently been arranged, is given in Appendix D.

His Excellency

Sir F. H. MAY, K.C.M.G.,

Governor of Hongkong.

272

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, MAY 4, 1917.

8. It cannot but be noticed that the younger men in the Colony have, to a certain. extent, refrained hitherto from coming before the Commission. We have had the opportunity of ascertaining the number of civilians in Hongkong of British race and military age; and are forced to the conclusion that, had more applied, more, although it may be not a large number, would have been found able to go; at the cost perhaps of personal sacrifice, but with no diminution of the Colony's value as an asset of the Empire. Furthermore it has been a matter of surprise to the Commission to learn, what the enquiry has certainly proved, that there yet remains doubt in some minds whether the Empire needs more men; and this doubt probably in part explains the number who have abstained from applying. Being ourselves convinced that so long as the war lasts the need is imperative, and increasingly so, we respectfully recommend that a clear official pronouncement upon the matter is desirable.

   9. The Commission, in the cases before it, has accepted the principle that it is outside its province to decide whether the full carrying on in the Colony of any particu- lar trade or business is necessary or expedient in the interests of the Empire. The Commission has accordingly based its findings upon the policy that, while staffs are to be reduced to the minimum compatible with efficiency, every trade and business irrespective of its nature is to be continued. Under the system of compulsory service obtaining in Great Britain, this standard has of course been abandoned; and we recognise that it may be necessary to modify the policy in Hongkong.

10. The part played by Hongkong under the voluntary system will probably stand comparison with the part played by any other British Dependency; but believing, as we have said, that there are still men here who could well be spared, we should welcome a decision by the Imperial Government to extend to the Colony the obligation of compul- sory service with the armies in the field.

11. Pursuant to the terms of our appointment, we have confined our enquiry to the cases of men medically passed as fit for active service at the front, and have not consi- dered applications from those physically capable of only sedentary or semi-active duties. And it is evident that the retention here of the latter class enables more of the former to leave.

12. With a view to liberating men, sixty-five women have made offers of assistance in one capacity or another, and steps have been taken to put their names before employers. Useful and suitable work has already been arranged in several cases, and, we hope, will soon be in more. It must however be remembered that men who come from the United Kingdom to the Far East have usually undergone a special course of training, and it is difficult to find women possessing the requisite experience and technical knowledge to take their places. Unskilled and partly skilled work, such as is now largely done by women in the United Kingdom, is performed in Hongkong mainly by men of Asiatic race.

13. We desire to express our appreciation of the valuable services of Mr. A. G. M. FLETCHER as Secretary of the Commission.

14. We hope that Your Excellency will see fit to direct the publication of this report in the Gazette.

We have the honour to be,

Sir,

THE MILITARY SERVICE COMMISSION.

HONGKONG, 26th March, 1917.

273

  SIR, -Referring to our recent interviews on the subject of applications from Civil Servants, I have the honour to inform Your Excellency that the Commissioners, upon further consideration of all the circumstances which I put before you, are confirmed in the view that it would not serve any useful purpose for them to hear such applications.

  2. The principal circumstances influencing the Commissioners in this view are that such applications constitute in some respects a peculiar category; inasmuch as you hold the dual position, at once of the applicant's employer and the arbiter of whatever recon- mendations the Commissioners may make upon their findings. They also understand that in the former capacity, at the instance of the Secretary of State, you have already formed and are acting upon an opinion as to the maximum number of men who can be spared, which opinion they apprehend would in fact guide your decision in your final arbitrament.

  3. In the above circumstances, the Commissioners suggest that you withdraw the Civil Service from the purview of the Commission, in the same manner as the Naval and Military Services have been withdrawn.

  4. The Commissioners wish this letter to be understood as in no way implying a desire on their part to be relieved of the task of dealing with applications from Civil Servants, a duty they would gladly undertake were the conditions such as to enable them to perform it usefully and effectively.

I have the honour to be,

Your Excellency's obedient servant,

His Excellency

Sir F. H. MAY, K.C.M.G.,

Governor of Hongkong.

GOVERNMENT HOUSE,

HONGKONG, 28th March, 1917.

SIR, I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 26th instant explaining the circumstances which have induced the members of the Military Service Commission to suggest that I should withdraw the Civil Servants from the purview of the Commission.

I appreciate the reasons for this suggestion which in the circumstances I shall adopt. I shall at the same time weigh carefully the cases of those Civil Servants who have not applied to the Colonial Government for permission to offer themselves for Military service beyond the Colony, but who may have made applications to go before the Commission. I shall be glad therefore to receive from the Commission the names of all Civil Servants who have made such applications.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient servant,

The Honourable

Mr. E. H. SHARP, K.C.,

Chairman,

 SIR, -I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of the report, dated the 20th April, by the Military Service Commissioners in the matter of the enquiry upon which they have been engaged.

 4. The report will be published in the Gazette of the 4th May, a copy will be for- warded to the Secretary of State for the Colonies forthwith, and copies will be laid upon. the table of the Legislative Council at its next meeting.

COLONIAL SECRETARY'S DEPARTMENT.

No. 212. The following Order of His Majesty in Council which appeared in the London Gazette of the 21st February, 1917, is published for general information.

AT THE COURT AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE,

THE 16TH DAY OF FEBRUARY, 1917.

PRESENT,

THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY IN COUNCIL.

HEREAS by an Order in Council dated the 11th day of March, 1915, His Majesty was pleased to direct certain measures to be taken against the commerce of the

enemy:

  And whereas the German Government has now issued a memorandum declaring that from the 1st February, 1917, all sea traffic will be prevented in certain zones therein described adjacent to Great Britain and France and Italy, and that neutral ships will navigate the said zones at their own risk :

And whereas similar directions have been given by other enemy Powers:

And whereas the orders embodied in the said memorandum are in flagrant contradic- tion with the rules of international law, the dictates of humanity, and the treaty obliga- tions of the enemy:

And whereas such proceedings on the part of the enemy render it necessary for His Majesty to adopt further measures in order to maintain the efficiency of those previously taken to prevent commodities of any kind from reaching or leaving the enemy countries, and for this purpose to subject to capture and condemnation vessels carrying goods with an enemy destination or of enemy origin unless they afford unto the forces of His Majesty and His Allies ample opportunities of examining their cargoes, and also to subject such goods to condemnation :

His Majesty is therefore pleased, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, that the following directions shall be observed in respect of all vessels which sail from their port of departure after the date of this Order :-

1. A vessel which is encountered at sea on her way to or from a port in any neutral country affording means of access to the enemy territory without calling at a port in British or Allied territory shall, until the contrary is established, be deemed to be carry- ing goods with an enemy destination, or of enemy origin, and shall be brought in for examination, and, if necessary, for adjudication before the Prize Court.

2. Any vessel carrying goods with an enemy destination, or of enemy origin, shall be liable to capture and condemnation in respect of the carriage of such goods; provided that, in the case of any vessel which calls at an appointed British or Allied port for the examination of her cargo, no sentence of condemnation shall be pronounced in respect only of the carriage of goods of enemy origin or destination, and no such presumption as is laid down in Article 1 shall arise.

3. Goods which are found on the examination of any vessel to be goods of enemy origin or of enemy destination shall be liable to condemnation.

4. Nothing in this Order shall be deemed to affect the liability of any vessel or goods to capture or condemnation independently of this Order.

5. This Order is supplemental to the Orders in Council of the 11th day of March, 1915, and the 10th day of January, 1917, for restricting the commerce of the enemy.

   2. The position is that these materials cannot be supplied, either for home use or for exportation, without a certificate from the Ministry of Munitions, and that licences for their exportation will not be granted by the War Trade Department unless such a certificate is produced. It is, however, difficult for the Minister of Munitions in many cases to decide whether such a certificate should be granted for an order from one of His Majesty's oversea possessions without fuller knowledge than he possesses as to the urgency of the demand in the Colony or Protectorate for the material in question and the possibility of meeting the demand from other sources (e.g., from local stocks or coun- tries other than the United Kingdom, or by the use of substitutes), and he therefore wishes that a procedure should be adopted by which all such orders from Colonies and Protectorates could in the first instance be examined locally.

   3. You should, therefore, as soon as possible appoint a Committee, or (if the number of such orders is likely to be inconsiderable or other difficulties exist) some officer, to whom all persons having orders for the materials in question to be supplied from the United Kingdom would in the first instance make application. The application would be made on a standard form, which is being prepared, and copies of which will be for- warded as soon as possible. The Committee or officer would examine the application from the points of view mentioned in the preceding paragraph and would furnish their advice by an endorsement upon the form of application. The form would then be returned to the applicant, who would forward it to the intending supplier of the material in the United Kingdom, and the supplier would apply for the necessary certificate to the Ministry of Munitions, with whom the decision would rest. In the event of any applica- tion being received by the Ministry of Munitions unaccompanied by the recommendation of the local authority, the applicant would be informed that no action would be taken until he had obtained the recommendation of that authority.

   4. In the event of a Committee, not an individual officer, being appointed it would be advisable that it should contain representatives of the trading community, and it would also be advantageous if it contained one or more of the engineering officers of your Government.

5. This procedure would not apply to materials actually required by Colonial Govern- ments. In such cases the Crown Agents for the Colonies would support the application to the Ministry of Munitions and no recommendation from the local authority would be required.

   6. Detailed memoranda explaining the principles on which applications should-be dealt with by the local authority are in course of preparation, as well as a list specifying the exact materials to which the arrangements will apply.

   7. I shall be glad if you will inform me by telegraph what authority you have appointed for this purpose, in order that the necessary announcement may be made in this country, and if you will at the same time state how many copies of the form of application referred to in paragraph 3 and the memoranda mentioned in paragraph 6 should be supplied for the use of that authority.

I have, &c.,

4. I take this opportunity to state that the Minister of Munitions is anxious that merchants and the general public in British oversea possessions will co-operate with him by (a) endeavouring to do without such supplies as need priority, and (b) realizing that priority is only refused with great reluctance in order to conserve the maximum supplies for hastening the Allied victory and a satisfactory peace. I shall be glad if you will give publicity to this request.

?

SIR,

MINISTRY OF MUNITIONS OF WAR.

PRIORITY,

1, CAXTON STREET,

WESTMINSTER, S.W.,

23rd January, 1917.

I am directed by the Minister of Munitions to refer to the Conference held on 7th December, 1916, with respect to the setting up of a Local Priority Authority in the British Dominions and Dependencies.

Some of the proposed Local Authorities have already been constituted, and im- mediately the necessary particulars as to the persons to whom, and the addresses to which applications should be made, are to hand, the Minister will announce publicly, and cause instructions to be issued that no applications for Priority Permits will henceforth be considered, except upon the receipt of the proper forms duly countersigned by the proper person, or persons. It is assumed that a similar announcement will be made in each Dominion or Dependency.

   It was agreed at the Conference that a uniform form of application should be used, and copies of the form that would be convenient to the Ministry of Munitions are for- warded herewith. Each Dominion or Dependency may print the forms to suit its own purposes, with such pages of additional instructions or particulars as may be necessary.

It will be observed that it is contemplated that there should be three copies of each application-one to be used by the applicant for passing on to the merchants or manufac- turers, two to be forwarded direct by the Local Priority Authority to the Ministry of Munitions, Priority, I, Caxton Street, Westminster, London. The first-mentioned form. bearing the authority and classification of the Ministry of Munitions will be returned to the exporter or manufacturer in the United Kingdom, one of the other two will be returned for purposes of record to the Local Priority Authority, and the other will be filed at the Ministry of Munitions.

   Where there is any exceptionally strong case of urgency, or a supply that is deemed to be specially important, the Local Priority Authority should indicate fully the reasons for special consideration, and the latest date by which delivery must be pressed for.

   There may also be cases so urgent and important that an order has to be placed by cable, and if the Local Priority Authority deems it necessary to send a strong cable, it will be given the most immediate and sympathetic consideration by the Ministry of Munitions.

   Each Local Priority Authority will adopt a scheme of reference for filing purposes, and when a cable is sent the references of the application, which is following by the next mail, should be clearly indicated.

All communications relating to applications that have at any time been before the Ministry of Munitions should bear the full references of the Priority of the Ministry, so that there may be no delay or confusion in referring to the previous papers.

304

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, MAY 18, 1917.

It will always be open for the Local Priority Authorities, or the respective Govern- ments, to take action in cases of special difficulty or importance through the representa- tives of the Dominions or Dependencies.

Some Dominions or Dependencies may desire not to make application for railway supplies, or direct Government orders through the Local Priority Authorities, and though it would be very desirable for the Ministry of Munitions if all or most applications are put forward by one authority, still there will be no objection to other arrangements, as to which full information should be furnished. Even in such cases, however, it is desira- ble that the same procedure forms should be used for the applications.

Questions have been raised as to the kinds of materials or articles that the Local Priority Authorities would have to deal with. The best reply to those questions is that the arrangement only applies to such materials or articles as it is necessary to obtain Priority Permits for. There is a fairly general knowledge by now as to when priority assistance will be necessary.

  What has happened hitherto, and will continue to happen, is that when the merchants or manufacturers receive preliminary inquiries, or are invited to tender or accept orders, the inquirer is informed by the merchant or manufacturer if a Priority Permit will be necessary.

  It would be only after such an intimation that the inquirer would find it necessary to apply to the Local Priority Authority.

Copies of some of the pertinent existing orders relating to materials are forwarded herewith for the information and guidance of the Local Priority Authorities.

  It is intended that the Local Priority Authorities shall be kept posted as to any new restrictions or orders.

  The Minister of Munitions most earnestly appeals for the patriotic temporary sacri- fice of their own interests by the merchants and public of the Dominions and Dependen- cies in

(a) Endeavouring to do without such supplies as priority is necessary for; (b) Realising that priority is only refused with great reluctance in order to conserve the maximum supplies for hastening the allied victory and the satisfactory peace.

PROCLAMATIONS.

FRANCIS HENRY MAY,

Governor.

By His Excellency Sir FRANCIS HENRY MAY, Knight Commander of the Most Distinguished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George, Governor and Commander- in-Chief of the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies and Vice-Admiral of the

same.

Whereas by the Military Stores (Exportation) Ordinance, 1862, it is enacted that it should be lawful for His Excellency the Governor, by and with the advice of the Execu- tive Council by Proclamation to prohibit, for such period as should be mentioned in such Proclamation, either to be exported from the Colony of Hongkong, or to be carried coastwise within the said Colony (amongst other things) Arms, Ammunition, Gunpowder, and Military and Naval Stores, and any articles which His Excellency may judge capable of being converted into or made useful in increasing the quantity of Military or Naval Stores, or any or either of such Arms, Ammunition, Gunpowder, Stores, Goods or Articles respectively, subject to any permission that may be obtained under Section 3 of the Ordinance:

And whereas, by various Proclamations issued from time to time, such exportation and carriage coastwise were prohibited, and remain prohibited until the 27th day of May, 1917, and it is expedient to continue such prohibition :

   Now, therefore, I, Sir FRANCIS HENRY MAY, Knight Commander of the Most Distin- guished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George, Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies and Vice-Admiral of the same, by and with the advice of the Executive Council of this Colony, do, by this Proclamation, pro- hibit for a further period of one year from and including the 28th day of May, 1917, either to be exported from the Colony of Hongkong, or to be carried coastwise within the said Colony, Arms, Ammunition, Gunpowder, Military and Naval Stores, Sulphur and Saltpetre, the last two being articles which I judge capable of being converted into or made useful in increasing the quantity of Military or Naval Stores, or any or either of such Arms, Ammunition, Gunpowder, Stores, Goods or Articles respectively, unless this Proclamation shall, in the meantime, be revoked, or unless permission shall have been obtained under Section 3 of the Ordinance above mentioned.

Given under my hand and the Public Seal of the Colony at Victoria Hongkong this 25th day of May 1917.

By Command,

A. G. M. FLETCHER,

Colonial Secretary.

GOD SAVE THE KING.

1st Class Sub-Assistant Surgeon ABINASH CHANDRA DE, I.S.M.D.

2nd Class Sub-Assistant Surgeon SHAIKH SAADAT ALI, I.S.M.D.

No. 243. The following Finding of the Marine Court of Inquiry held on the 10th, 14th, 15th, 17th and 18th May, 1917, to enquire into the circumstances of misconduct on the part of Mr. W. J. STOKES, Chief Engineer of the British Steamship Pheumpenh, is published for general information.

FINDING.

In this case a number of charges have been brought by the Master against the Chief Engineer, extending over a period of two months. Certain of these charges are of a trifling nature and in the opinion of this Court should never have been formulated. therefore propose to deal only with the principal charges as follows:

We

On March the 6th when at Cape St. James the Master states that the Chief Engineer came on the Bridge and spoke to him in a disrespectful and insolent way, addressing him before the 2nd Mate, Pilot and Quarter Master as "Mr. Man", and questioning his right to delay the ship for hour, and finally ended up by saying "Not guilty this time, don't do it again". There is a conflict of evidence here. The Chief Engineer admits addressing the Master as "Mr. Man", but says it was in the privacy of the Chart House, and it was only in jest. The Court consider that this manner of addressing the Master officially is contrary to all good discipline, but as this form of address seems to have been the common practice of the Chief Engineer for a considerable time, we are of opinion that the Master should have taken proper steps early in his command of this ship to have stopped this objectionable familiarity.

Again on the 28th March the Chief Officer was logged for being drunk and the Chief Engineer when asked by the Master refused to sign the Log. The Court are of opinion that under the circumstances then ruling on board it was clearly the Chief Engineer's duty to sign the Official Log and assist the Master to keep discipline in the ship.

   On March 29th the Chief Engineer is charged whilst at Saigon with having inter- fered with the loading of the ship. There is no evidence to prove that this was so, and is denied by Mr. Stokes, but it is proved that the Chief Engineer did threaten to leave the ship with all his engineers if any more cargo was put on board, and it is also proved by a document signed by the Chief Engineer that the ship was not over loaded at this time. So that we consider this was an act of misconduct on the part of Mr. Stokes.

April 9th, 10th and 11th.The Master states in his evidence that he gave the Chief Engineer orders on the 9th of April for certain reasons not to make any test with the drinking water publicly. Here there is a conflict of evidence. Mr. Stokes states that no such orders were ever given to him, and that he had no idea there was any trouble con- nected with the drinking water until the 11th of April, when he was heavily logged. No evidence has been produced to prove that such order was ever given to the Chief Engineer, and as most of the Master's orders to the Engine Room appear to have been given in writing this is particularly noticeable. Also Dr. Arculli in his evidence states that during the three days, i.e., 9th, 10th and 11th April, the Chief Engineer brought samples of drinking water to the Master daily for inspection. The relationship existing between the Master and Chief Engineer during this period appeared to be quite friendly.

On March the 6th when at Cape St. James the Master states that the Chief Engineer came on the Bridge and spoke to him in a disrespectful and insolent way, addressing him before the 2nd Mate, Pilot and Quarter Master as "Mr. Man", and questioning his right to delay the ship for hour, and finally ended up by saying "Not guilty this time, don't do it again". There is a conflict of evidence here. The Chief Engineer admits addressing the Master as "Mr. Man", but says it was in the privacy of the Chart House, and it was only in jest. The Court consider that this manner of addressing the Master officially is contrary to all good discipline, but as this form of address seems to have been the common practice of the Chief Engineer for a considerable time, we are of opinion that the Master should have taken proper steps early in his command of this ship to have stopped this objectionable familiarity.

Again on the 28th March the Chief Officer was logged for being drunk and the Chief Engineer when asked by the Master refused to sign the Log. The Court are of opinion that under the circumstances then ruling on board it was clearly the Chief Engineer's duty to sign the Official Log and assist the Master to keep discipline in the ship.

   On March 29th the Chief Engineer is charged whilst at Saigon with having inter- fered with the loading of the ship. There is no evidence to prove that this was so, and is denied by Mr. Stokes, but it is proved that the Chief Engineer did threaten to leave the ship with all his engineers if any more cargo was put on board, and it is also proved by a document signed by the Chief Engineer that the ship was not over loaded at this time. So that we consider this was an act of misconduct on the part of Mr. Stokes.

April 9th, 10th and 11th.The Master states in his evidence that he gave the Chief Engineer orders on the 9th of April for certain reasons not to make any test with the drinking water publicly. Here there is a conflict of evidence. Mr. Stokes states that no such orders were ever given to him, and that he had no idea there was any trouble con- nected with the drinking water until the 11th of April, when he was heavily logged. No evidence has been produced to prove that such order was ever given to the Chief Engineer, and as most of the Master's orders to the Engine Room appear to have been given in writing this is particularly noticeable. Also Dr. Arculli in his evidence states that during the three days, i.e., 9th, 10th and 11th April, the Chief Engineer brought samples of drinking water to the Master daily for inspection. The relationship existing between the Master and Chief Engineer during this period appeared to be quite friendly.

   After going very carefully into all the evidence given to the Court we are of opinion that the Chief Engineer was responsible for the drinking water being delivered clean to the Emigrants, and to do this it was necessary for him to pump through the General Service pipes until the water ran clean, and that it would be necessary to test and taste this water from time to time until the results were satisfactory. In doing this it appears to the Court that the Chief Engineer chose the most convenient and private place for this work, i.c., Cock C. And that as there had been no trouble heretofore during the voyage with the Emigrants over the water, and that as water is being constantly pumped during the day through the General Service pipes for various reasons on a ship, it seems difficult to understand why this particular water being pumped or tasted should interest the Emigrants or alarm them in any way. Taking all these points into consideration and the absence of evidence that any proper order was given to the Chief Engineer which we think should have been given in "writing" or before a witness if this testing was considered to be dangerous, we are of opinion that the Chief Engineer on these occasions carried out his duty in a proper way and to the best of his ability.

   In summing up this case generally, although the most serious charges have not been proved, we are strongly of opinion that the Chief Engineer Mr. Stokes consistently adopted an attitude of disrespect towards the Master of the ship Mr. De La Sala, and we consider that such acts of misconduct which have been proved although they do not amount in our opinion to gross misconduct were detrimental to all good discipline and order on board and merits severe censure, and taking into consideration Mr. Stokes' long and we believe good service with the Company, and also the fact that he has already been discharged from this Company after 13 years' service, we consider this to be sufficient punishment.

COUNCIL CHAMBER,

14th June, 1917.

  *NOTE (1).--Under the Trading with the Enemy Proclamations of 25 June, and 10 November, 1915, all Proclamations relating to Trading with the Enemy apply to all persons or bodies of persons of enemy nationality, resident or carrying on business in Persia, Morocco or Portuguese East Africa, and consequently it is an offence to trade with any person or body of persons of enemy nationality resident or carrying on business in Persia, Morocco or Portuguese East Africa, even though such person or body of persons is not included by name in the Statutory List, and the omission of the name of any such person or body of persons from such list is not an authority or licence to trade with such person or body of persons.

  NOTE (2).-Where a firm named in the list has more than one branch in the same country, all branches in that country are held to be included in the list even in cases where no address, or of several addresses, one only is specifically mentioned.

  NOTE (3). The above additions and removals were made in the United Kingdom on the dates, which appear opposite to the respective names.

  NOTE (4).A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 5th April, 1917, may be obtained from the Government Printers, Messrs. Noronha & Co., No. 14A, Des Voeux Road Central, who can also supply copies of the Orders in Council made since that date.

No. 283.-It is hereby notified that new Local and Non-Local Storm Signal Codes will be introduced at Hongkong on 1st July, 1917, in place of the old Local Code, and the China Coast Code.

The principal change in the Local Code is that the new Signals from which the gale is expected, whereas the old signals showed the The latter will be indicated, as heretofore, by the Non-Local Signals. is given below:-

Signal No. 7 will be accompanied by three explosive bombs, fired at intervals of 10 seconds at the Water Police Station and repeated at the Harbour Office.

The signals will be lowered when it is considered that all danger is over.

   The Day Signals will be displayed at the masthead of the storm signal mast on Blackhead Hill, the Harbour Office, H.M.S. Tamar, Green Island signal mast, the flagstaff on the premises of the Hongkong and Kowloon Wharf and Godown Company at Kowloon, the flagstaff on the premises of the Standard Oil Company at Lai-chi-kok, and the flagstaff near the Field Officer's Quarters at Lyemun.

   The Night Signals will be displayed, at sunset, on the tower of the Railway Station, on H.M.S. Tamar, and on the Harbour Office flagstaff. They will have the same signification as the day siguals.

   Signal No. 7 will be accompanied by explosive bombs as above, in the event of the information conveyed by this signal being first published at night.

SUPPLEMENTARY

WARNINGS.

When local signals are displayed in the Harbour a CONE will be exhibited at the following stations :-

Gap Rock

Waglan

Sau Ki Wan Sai Kung Sha Tau Kok Tai Po

Stanley Aberdeen

to notify the fact to native craft and passing ocean vessels.

Further details can always be given to ocean vessels, on demand, by signal from lighthouses.

   The object of the code is to give at least 24 hours warning of a gale (Force 8 by Beaufort Scale, or 40-45 m.p.h., mean velocity by Dines Anemometer) and also warnings of expected changes in the direction and force of the wind. Owing however to the uncertain movements of typhoons and to insufficient telegraphic observations, it will occasionally happen that siguals 2 to 5 may be displayed without a gale occurring at Hongkong, or even Gap Rock, but the reverse is not likely to happen, except in the case of typhoons forming in the vicinity and travelling rapidly towards Hongkong, or of a located typhoon increasing its rate of progression abnormally.

Signal No. 1 is intended as a warning to "Stand By" and watch for the next signal.

In the new Non-Local Code the approximate velocity of the Storm centre will be shown, in addition to its direction of motion, and the position of the centre will be given in degrees of latitude and longitude. The time at which the warning was issued will also be

shown.

No. 88.

DOWNING STREET,

10th May, 1917.

SIR, I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of Mr. SEVERN'S despatch No. 408 of 14th November last, transmitting reports by the General Officer Commanding on the services rendered by the Hongkong Volunteer Corps and the Hongkong Volunteer Reserve, which also include the names of certain officers and non-commissioned officers whom it is desired to commend for special services to the Empire in connection with local defence measures, and the military situation arising out of the war.

   2. These recommendations were laid before the Army Council, who decided to make a special notification of the names of those officers and non-commissioned officers through- out the Empire deemed to be deserving of recognition, although their services may not have been sufficient to merit the recognition known as a "mention in despatches", or other higher reward, judged by the standard applied in the case of those who have parti- cipated in actual military operations in the field.

3. The publication of names was effected by a War Office notice through the Press Bureau on 26th-27th February, copy enclosed. On page 53 under "China" you will find the names of those you have recommended, besides 3 names of officers not mentioned in the enclosures to your despatch. The officers and non-commissioned officers specified are granted the Reward of an honourable entry in their record of service. I suggest that the list as concerns the China Command, should be published in the official Gazelte together with your despatch of the 14th November and this reply, in which I gladly recognise the services of both the Volunteers and the Reserve.

4. I notice that in the War Office publication no distinction is made between the Volunteer Corps and Volunteer Reserve as in the enclosures to your despatch, but you will doubtless consider this point in any local publication of names,

   5. I have further to request that you will cause a note to be made on the record of service of any officials of the Colonial Government who have been included as entitled to such entry.

I have, &c.,

Governor

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 20, 1917.

No. 329. The following orders issued by the Government of the Philippine Islands regulating the entrance of vessels into Ports of the Philippine Islands and their departure therefrom are published for general information.

"The South Channel leading from seaward into Manila Bay is hereby closed to traffic and will be immediately protected by the planting of mines. This channel extends from Caballo Island on the north to Restinga Point on the South.

   The North Channel between Corregidor Island and the shore of Bataan Province is closed to traffic inward from sunset to sunrise, except to such vessels engaged in coast- wise traffic as may be granted a safe conduct by the Patrol Boat, whose headquarters will be maintained in Mariveles Bay.

When weather conditions permit, the Patrol Boat will meet incoming vessels between sunset and sunrise on or near the line extending from Monja Island to Guardia Shoal. If permission to enter is given, the Patrol Boat will either lead the incoming vessel through the mine field and past the batteries of Corregidor Island, or will give such directions as shall insure safe passage into the Bay.

Vessels other than those engaged in coastwise traffic will not be permitted to enter the harbor during the hours above specified.

Vessels will not be permitted to leave the harbor between sunset and sunrise, except in special cases for which a permit may be granted by the Collector of Customs. In such cases the Patrol Boat at Mariveles will be notified and will meet the outgoing vessel east of the tangent from Lamae Point to Caballo Light, and lead the way through the mine field.

Obedience to the above rules will be enforced by vessels of the United States Navy, including destroyers and submarines, based in Mariveles Bay, and by the batteries of Corregidor Island.

Any vessel engaged in coastwise traffic, approaching the harbor from seaward and failing to find the Patrol Boat on station, will enter Mariveles Harbor and report to the Commander of the Patrol.

Failure to comply with any of the above regulations may result in the destruction of the offending vessel."

*

*

"All vessels are prohibited from passing in or out of the North Channel, Cebu Harbor, between the hours of sunset and sunrise. The zone from which vessels are excluded during the above-mentioned hours extends from the green light, Opon dock, to San Pedro light, Cebu."

*

*

*

   "In view of the existing state of war between the United States and Germany, immediate steps will be taken for the defence of Subig Bay by mines and guns, and any unauthorized vessel attempting to enter that port does so at her peril."

66

*

*

*

For the purpose of enforcing the Rules already established governing entrance to, and exit from, Manila Bay (North Channel) during the Typhoon Season, a Navy Signał Station has been established on the highest elevation of Cochinos Point at the western entrance to Mariveles Harbour, as an adjunct to the Patrol Vessel, which will ordinarily occupy a position in Mariveles Harbour instead of outside.

Approaching vessels should look to this Station for signals granting, or refusing, permission to enter.

   Approaching vessels will display their signal numbers where they can be seen from the signal station, using clean flags of sufficient size to be easily made out.

   The Signal Station will be provided with International Signals, but routine signals will be made by shapes that is to say, by Balls, Cubes (showing as Squares), and Cones.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 20, 1917.

Signals.

403

PROCEED.-One Ball on yard arm.

STOP.---One Cube (Square) on yard arm or Rocket followed by Red Star.

Under no circumstances shall South Channel be used,

In case of a typhoon, a vessel arriving off the entrance of the North Channel and seeking shelter at night shall burn a flare-up light at intervals. The signal granting permission to enter will be a rocket followed by two green stars and this signal shall be repeated by a rocket fired from Corregidor. The vessel will then be entitled to proceed to an anchorage in Mariveles Bay.

Strict compliance with the above regulations is enjoined and all violations thereof will be punished under the Customs Laws of Philippine Islands."

Now, therefore, His Majesty, by virtue of the powers in this behalf by the Fugitive- Offenders Acts, 1881 and 1915, and otherwise in His Majesty vested, is pleased, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:

DESPATCHES FROM THE SECRETARY OF STATE.

No. 353.-The following despatch from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, with reference to the transhipment of goods taken to the United Kingdom, is published, by command.

10th August, 1917.

CIRCULAR.

CLAUD SEVERN,

Colonial Secretary.

DOWNING STREET,

21st May, 1917.

SIR, I have the honour to inform you that His Majesty's Government have decided that goods brought to the United Kingdom for transhipment to destinations overseas should be subject to the usual prohibitions of importation into and exportation from this

country.

2. A general licence has, however, been issued under which no import licence will be required in the case of goods brought to the United Kingdom in neutral vessels for transhipment.

3. The Director of the War Trade Department has given notice that, in view of the existing shipping situation, it is not considered desirable that vessels coming to the United Kingdom should bring cargo for transhipment to foreign countries, and that it may be necessary to restrict considerably the issue of export licences.

4. The Director of the War Trade Dapartment has also given notice that applications for permission to tranship goods should be made on a special form, copies of which may is be obtained on personal application at any Custom House. This form, duly filled up, to be presented to the Collector of Customs at the port of arrival, together with the usual transhipment entries, and when an application is to tranship goods to neutral countries in Europe, the usual guarantees, certificates, or undertakings required for the exporta- tion of similar goods from the United Kingdom should as a rule be attached to the form.

5. It is recognised that this last procedure may not be practicable where guarantees, etc., appropriate to direct shipments from overseas have already been obtained by the ultimate consignees, and in such cases it will be sufficient for the present if the reference number of such documents is quoted.

  6. I shall be glad if you will take the usual steps for bringing these arrangements to the notice of the public.

I have, &c.,

The Officer Administering the Government of

HONGKONG.

HEREAS by treaty, grant, usage, sufferance, and other lawful means His Majesty

the King has jurisdiction in China:

Now, therefore, His Majesty, by virtue and in exercise of the powers in this behalf by "The Foreign Jurisdiction Act, 1890," or otherwise, in His Majesty vested, is pleased, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:----

1. This Order may be cited as "The China (War Powers) Order in Council, 1917," and shall be read as one with the "China Order in Council, 1904" (hereinafter called the "Principal Order"), and with any Order amending the same.

2. Where in the opinion of the Minister there are reasonable grounds for believing that any British subject has acted, is acting, or is about to act in a manner prejudicial to the public safety, or to the defence, peace, or security of His Majesty's dominions or of any part of them, the Minister may by order in writing direct that such person--

(a) Shall not enter, reside, or remain in any area specified in the order; (b) Shall reside or remain in any area so specified;

(e) Shall conduct himself in such manner, or abstain from such acts, or take such order with any property in his possession or under his control, as may be specified in such order;

3.

Order.

   4. Where in the opinion of the Minister it is expedient that any person, in respect of whom the provisions of Article 2 of this Order apply, should be deported from China. to some place in His Majesty's dominions, he shall send to the Supreme Court a certificate under his hand and seal to that effect, and the Supreme Court may thereupon order that such person shall be deported from China to the place specified in such certificate. The provisions of the Principal Order, and of any Order amending the same, relative to deportation shall, subject to the provisions of this Order, apply to any deportation effected under this article.

5. If any person deported under this Order returns to China without permission in writing of the Minister (which permission the Minister may give) he shall (without prejudice to any liability under Article 83 (11) of the Principal Order) be guilty of an offence against this Order, and shall be liable on conviction by the Court to imprison- ment with or without hard labour for a term not exceeding three years; provided, however, that nothing in this article shall be deemed to empower a Provincial Court to award any sentence greater than is authorised by Article 59 (2) of the Principal Order.

Colonial Secretary.

Rule that Watch Officers of U. S. Ships shall be American Citizens Suspended.

The following Executive order is made public by the Department of Commerce:

"In pursuance of the authority conferred upon the President of the United States by section 2 of the act approved August 18, 1914, entitled 'An act to provide for the admission of foreign-built ships. to American registry for foreign trade, and for other purposes,' it is hereby ordered:

   "That the provisions of law prescribing that the watch officers of vessels of the United States, registered for the foreign trade shall be citizens of the United States, are hereby suspended so far and for such length of time as is herein provided, namely:

"That all citizens or subjects of nations which are or which hereafter may be engaged in the present war against the Imperial German Government or any of its allies, and all such citizens or subjects of neutral nations as shall satisfy the Secretary of Com- merce that their attitude toward the purposes of the United States in the war it is now waging is not detrimental to the successful prosecution of the war, may, for the duration of the war, be permitted to act as watch officers of vessels of the United States, regis- tered for foreign trade, if otherwise qualified:

46

    'Provided, that if it shall appear to the satisfaction of the Secretary of Commerce that any such citizen or subject, whether of a belligerent or a neutral nation, has com- mitted any act inimical to the United States in the conduct of the war, the said Secretary may, in each such case, withdraw the exemption provided for herein, and such exemption shall not again apply to any such alien citizen or subject.

And the Secretary of Commerce is hereby authorized to prescribe such rules and regulations as may be necessary to carry this order into effect.'

The effect of this order will be to greatly facilitate the manning of merchant vessels with competent crews. There are many English and Scandinavian watch officers available, now that the prohibition has been removed requiring that such officers be American citizens, and this new source of supply, coupled with the watch officers that are now being trained and will be trained at the various schools inaugurated under the auspices of the United States Shipping Board, is expected to furnish all the officers needed for the American merchant marine, so soon to have many new ships in commis- sion.

NOTICES.

COLONIAL SECRETARY'S DEPARTMENT.

    No. 380. The following regulations, governing the importation of goods into Russia, have been approved by the Russian Provisional Government, and are published for general information.

    As a provisional measure, in modification, substitution and amplification of the Rules in force, the following rules are fixed for the importation of goods including postal parcels by the maritime frontiers and the Russo-Finnish frontier, as well as through the station Manchouria:

1. The importation shall only be admitted by special authorisation of :-

1) the General Administration of Supplies of the Ministry of War (Glavnoie Upravlenie Zagranichnyh Snabjeniy) for all Government goods and private goods intended for the national defence.

(b) the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, within the limits of tonnage allotted

to it for that purpose, for all other private goods.

    These two administrations may delegate their powers in individual cases to different local authorities.

    Note. The right to issue in foreign countries certificates testifying the authorisation granted may be intrusted to organs of the Russian Government which shall be specially instructed to that effect by the above mentioned administration.

    2. The goods arriving in Russia without the authorisation dealt with in the preced- ing article shall be confiscated by the organs instructed to that effect by the Ministry of War.

    3. The goods confiscated in accordance with article 2 shall be placed at the disposal of the Ministry of War which shall make use of them for the needs of defence, or, by agreement with the Ministry of Commerce, for other State requirements, or order their sale for the benefit of the exchequer.

    4. The Ministry of War is authorised to draw up in consultation with the other Ministries lists of goods exempted from the present regulations.

    5. The present regulations come into force from the day on which the respective Custom Houses receive the official telegram notifying their promulgation, but they should not affect shipments made within three weeks from the date of their publication in the Collection of Laws and Orders (this date shall be communicated eventually) and accom- panied by bills of lading, railway freight bills or postal declarations certifying their dispatch within the limits of this term.

II.

    The Ministry of Commerce is directed to approve, in agreement with Ministries of War and Finance, lists of goods exempted from the present regulations and to publish simultaneously with the publication of the present regulations in the Collection of Laws and Orders.*

*The lists have not yet been received.

QUESTIONS.---Mr. POLLOCK, pursuant to notice, asked the following questions:---

and

(ii) Cannot some steps be taken to remedy the nuisance arising from such discharge, as temporary measures, pending the commencement of the work on the proposed reclamation ?

(iii) When is such proposed reclamation likely to be commenced?

2. With reference to the Vote taken at the last Meeting of the Council for the purchase of

Lysholt" for Government Quarters

(i) Is it not the usual practice to get an Officer in the Government Civil Service to bid on behalf of the Government in cases where the Government desires to acquire property?

(ii) Was there any special reason for secrecy on the part of the Government in the

present instance?

(iii) Did not such secrecy result in the Government having to pay a bigger price for

the property than it would otherwise have done ?

*NOTE (1).--Under the Trading with the Enemy Proclamations of the 25th June, and 10th November, 1915, all Proclamations relating to Trading with the Enemy apply to all persons or bodies of persons of enemy nationality, resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, and consequently it is an offence to trade with any person or body. of persons of enemy nationality resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, even though such person or body of persons is not included by name in the Statutory List, and the omission of the name of any such person or body of persons from such list is not an authority or licence to trade with such person or body of persons.

† NOTE (2).-Where a person or firm mentioned in the list has more than one address in the country or group of countries under which the name of the person or firm appears, all dealings in that country, or in any country in the group, with such person or firm are prohibited, even in cases where one only of the addresses or one only of the countries is specifically mentioned.

 NOTE (3)--The above additions and removals were made in the United Kingdom on the dates which appear opposite to the respective names.

NOTE (4). A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 5th April, 1917, may be obtained from the Government Printers, Messrs. Noronha & Co., No. 14A, Des Voeux Road Central, who can also supply copies of the Orders in Council made since that date.

 § NOTE (5).-It is not unusual for firms in Holland and the Netherland East Indies to be regis- tered under names commencing with descriptive terms such as "Handel Maatschappy" (Trading Company) or Naamlooze Venootschap" (Limited Liability Company). In such cases it has been found more convenient to publish the firm under its proper name, followed by the general descrip- tive term "Handel Maatschappy" or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (N.V.), as in the case of an English company. For instance, Handel Maatschappy Louvre and Naamlooze Venootschap de Komeet v/h Dunionceau Frères will be found under Louvre and Komeet respectively, and not necessarily under "Handel" or "Naamlooze," though cross references may be given.

(3) The period for claiming goods is finally extended till August 31st, 1917. (4) All questions relative to the cargoes of the S.S. India, Damao, and Pangim (formerly the Vorwaerts, Brisbane, and Numantia respectively), will be decided by the Tribunal of Commerce of Mormugao.

With regard to paragraph (2) it is understood that the intervention of the Legation of the country concerned is not necessary in the case of claims admitted as good by the Procurator of the Republic, and in respect of which the latter has given orders for the delivery of the goods under no fixed guarantee; nor in the case of claims submitted after July 13th, the date of the Decree. In these cases a direct guarantee of the nature men- tioned may be given by the cargo-owners themselves.

A translation of the Decree will as soon as received be published in the London

Gazette.

  2.--LANGUAGE.--(a)-Transatlantic cablegrams must be in plain English or French, or in Italian in the case of telegrams originating in or destined to Italian territory (whether originating in the United States or in transit thru), except that authorized codes (see paragraph 3) may be used in cablegrams to countries co-operating with the United States in the prosecution of the war. In no case, however, is code allowed in cablegrams sent to or from European countries assisting Germany in prosecuting the war.

  (b)---Cablegrams to Central and South America, to the West Indies, and to points reached by the Pacific routes, must be written in plain English, French, or Spanish, or in one of these languages translated into one of the codes enumerated in paragraph 3.

  3.-CODES.-The following authorized codes may be used, conditioned on their acceptability under the Censorship Regulations in effect in the foreign countries con- cerned. The name of the code shall be written in the check and will be signalled free:

  5.-SIGNATURES. All cablegrams must be signed; in the case of an individual, by the surname at least; in the case of firm or organization by the surname of a responsible member of the firm or officer of the organization, when satisfactory information regard- ing him is on file with the censor; or by an abbreviated signature of two or more words from the incorporated title when understandable (Examples: "Pacific Mail" for The Pacific Mail Steamship Company, "Second National" for the Second National Bank, or "Studebaker Corporation" for The Studebaker Corporation of America).

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, SEPTEMBER 21, 1917. 537

7.-VESSEL'S NAME REQUIRED.--If the message refers to a shipment or to a voyage, the name of the vessel concerned must appear on the message, but will not be considered a part of the cablegram.

8.--CABLEGRAMS WITHOUT TEXT.-Will not be passed.

  9.-SINGLE WORD CABLEGRAMS.-Will be passed when censor is satisfied of plain English word or when a single code word translates into two or more words understand- able to the Censor.

  10.- SUPPRESSIONS, DELAYS, ETC.---All cablegrams are accepted at sender's risk, and may be stopped, delayed, or otherwise dealt with at the discretion of the censor and without notice to the senders. No information respecting the transmission, delivery, or other disposal of any cablegram, shall be given by paid service, and requests made by mail must be addressed to the telegraph or cable companies and must be passed upon by the censor. Telegraphic or post acknowledgments of the receipt (P. C. or P. C. P. services) are suspended to all countries.

  11.--INFORMATION TO SENDERS.-The cable company will notify the station of origin by free service when a message does not conform to the Censorship Regulations. Any explanation of a testword or words, etc., required by the censor from the sender in the United States or Canada shall be obtained by a collect message from the censor to the sender and by a paid reply from the sender of the cablegram.

  12.CODED CABLEGRAMS.-Filed directly at cable offices where a cable censor is stationed, as at New York, Key West, Galveston and San Francisco, should be accom- panied by a translation, and if it is certified by some responsible member of a firm it will tend to expedite the transmission of the message.

  13. FIGURES.-Unrelated numbers or code words which translate into unrelated numbers are prohibited, except as set out in paragraph 14.

  14.--SERIAL NUMBERING OF CABLEGRAMS.--Will be permitted under the following conditions: Cablegrams may be numbered from one to nine hundred and ninety-nine inclusive, in plain figures or authorized code translating into plain figures, but the serial number must begin with number one on the first day of each month. At option of the sender, two additional figures may be added to serial number, indicating the day of the month, and these figures may be in plain figures or in authorized code translating into figures, but on the first nine days of the month the numeral shall be preceded by a zero. The serial number, when used, shall be the last word in the message preceding the signa- ture. Nothing herein requires any cablegrams to have a serial number.

  15.-TESTWORD.--(a)--In order to safeguard the interests of responsible individuals and organizations transmitting money by cable, the use of testwords will be permitted, and to relieve them of the necessity for furnishing copies of their systems of testwords, affidavit will be accepted to cover the use of such testwords.

(b)-Organizations and individuals desiring to use testwords to authenticate their messages and to act as a check on the amount of money transmitted, must furnish to the Chief Cable Censor, Navy Department, Washington, an affidavit sworn to before a properly constituted authority covering substantially the following allegations :-----

"The testword will be the first word in the body of the message. Such test- word will have no other meaning or use than that of authenticating the amount of money transmitted or that of preventing fraud by unauthorized payments of money.

17

  (c)-A testword is permitted in any cablegram addressed to or sent by a bank, firm or other organization which has qualified by complying with the regulations herein prescribed.

  (d)Foreign firms are privileged to qualify if they so desire, but even though not qualified they may use testwords when addressing qualified banks, firms, or other organizations.

(e) Qualification of an American firm, bank or other organization will include its foreign branches.

* NOTE (1).---Under the Trading with the Enemy Proclamations of the 25th June, and 10th November, 1915, all Proclamations relating to Trading with the Enemy apply to all persons or bodies of persons of enemy nationality, resident or carrying on business in China, Siam. Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, and consequently it is an offence to trade with any person or body of persons of enemy nationality resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, even though such person or body of persons is not included by name in the Statutory List, and the omission of the name of any such person or body of persons from such list is not an authority or licence to trade with such person or body of persons.

  † NOTE (2).---Where a person or firin mentioned in the list has more than one address in the country or group of countries under which the name of the person or firm appears, all dealings in that country, or in any country in the group, with such person or firm are prohibited, even in cases where one only of the addresses or one only of the countries is specifically mentioned.

NOTE (3). The above additions and removals were made in the United Kingdom on the dates which appear opposite to the respective names.

§ NOTE (5). It is not unusual for firms in Holland and the Netherland East Indies to be regis- tered under names commencing with descriptive terms such as "Handel Maatschappy" (Trading Company) or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (Limited Liability Company). In such cases it has been found more convenient to publish the firm under its proper name, followed by the general descriptive term "Handel Maatschappy" or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (N.V.), as in the case of an English company. For instance, Handel Maatschappy Louvre and Naamlooze Venootschap de Komeet v/h Dunioncean Frères will be found under Louvre and Komeet respectively, and not necessarily under "Handel" or "Naamlooze," though cross references may be given.

Leave may be given to issue a writ of sum- mons in the Supreme Court for service on an enemy out of the jurisdiction or of which notice is to be given to an enemy out of the jurisdiction if the court is satisfied that the case is a case to which this section applies, and the court may, on application made at the time leave is so given or at any subsequent time, if satisfied that the 5 & 6 Geo. 5, writ cannot promptly be served or brought to the notice c. 36, s. 1. of the enemy defendant by any of the usual means, make an order (in this Ordinance referred to as an enemy service order) directing substituted or other service of the writ or the substitution of notice for service by means of advertisement or otherwise; and on that order being complied with, all proceedings may be taken on the claim as if the writ had been served on the enemy defendant by the usual means.

(2.) The Chief Justice may make such rules as he thinks fit for expediting proceedings and regulating procedure generally in a case where an enemy service order has been made and the enemy defendant does not appear; and any rules so made shall have effect as if they were included in the rules of court for the time being in force.

(3.) The court, where an enemy service order has been made and it appears not to be practicable to obtain the best evidence of any document which is, in the opinion of the court material to the case, may admit such other evidence thereof as appears proper in the circumstances.

(4.) The court shall have power, where an enemy service order has been made and the enemy defendant does not appear, to order the plaintiff, though success- ful, to pay the whole or any part of the costs of the proceedings, if the court consider that it is just to do so in the special circumstances of the case.

(5.) The fact that, for the purpose of obtaining the benefit of this section, a writ of summons has been indorsed only with a claim for a declaration in accord- ance therewith shall not prevent any other declaration or any consequential or other relief being claimed in other proceedings, or prevent the case being dealt with, although no such other declaration or consequential or other relief is claimed.

A. G. M. FLETCHER, Clerk of Councils.

  NOTE (1).----Under the Trading with the Enemy Proclamations of the 25th June, and 10th November, 1915, all Proclamations relating to Trading with the Enemy apply to all persons or bodies of persons of enemy nationality, resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, and consequently it is an offence to trade with any person or body of persons of enemy nationality resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, even though such person or body of persons is not included by name in the Statutory List, and the omission of the name of any such person or body of persons from such list is not an authority or licence to trade with such person or body of persons.

י

 † NOTE (2).-Where a person or firm mentioned in the list has more than one address in the country or group of countries under which the name of the person or firm appears, all dealings in that country, or in any country in the group, with such person or firm are prohibited, even in cases where one only of the addresses or one only of the countries is specifically mentioned.

-

  NOTE (3). The above additions and removals were made in the United Kingdom on the dates which appear opposite to the respective names.

  NOTE (4).- -A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 5th April, 1917, may be obtained from the Government Printers, Messrs. Noronha & Co., No. 14A, Des Voeux Road Central, who can also supply copies of the Orders in Council made since that date.

 § NOTE (5). It is not unusual for firms in Holland and the Netherland East Indies to be regis- tered under names commencing with descriptive terms such as "Handel Maatschappy" (Trading Company) or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (Limited Liability Company). In such cases it has been found more convenient to publish the firm under its proper name, followed by the general descriptive term "Handel Maatschappy" or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (N.V.), as in the case of an English company. For instance, Handel Maatschappy Louvre and Naamlooze Venootschap de Komeet v/h Dumonceau Frères will be found under Louvre and Komeet respectively, and not necessarily under "Handel" or "Naamlooze," though cross references may be given.

COLONIAL SECRETARY'S DEPARTMENT,

No. 492. The following Joint Order of the Department of State and of the Depart- ment of Labor of the Government of the United States, requiring passports and certain information from Aliens who desire to enter the United States during the War, is pub- lished for information.

JOINT ORDER REQUIRING PASSPORTS AND CERTAIN INFORMATION FROM ALIENS WHO DESIRE TO ENTER THE UNITED STATES DURING THE WAR.

DEPARTMENT OF STATE,

Department of LABOR,

Washington, DC., July 26, 1917.

To Diplomatic and Consular Officers and Immigration Officers of the United States, Steamship and Railway Lines of the United States

and Other Countries, Aliens, and All Others Concerned.

  After due publication of this order in foreign countries every person leaving a foreign country for the United States (except persons starting from Canada) with the purpose of entering, passing through, or touching at a port of the United States shall be required, before he is permitted to enter the United States, to present a valid passport, or other official document in the nature of a passport, satisfactorily establishing his identity and nationality, with a signed and certified photograph of the bearer attached. A wife, or female child under 21 years of age, or male child under 16 years of age, may be included in the passport of the husband or parent, but a photograph of each must be attached to such passport. Each male child 16 years of age or over must carry a separate passport: Provided, That, where it is shown to the satisfaction of the Secretary of Labor that passports are denied to seamen to prevent their coming ashore in American ports for purposes of reshipment, the Secretary of Labor may authorize the admission of such seamen without the persentation of passport.

Each passport of an alien must be visaed by an American consulate, or the diplomatic mission if specially authorized, in the country from which the holder starts upon his trip to the United States. If the country from which he starts on his trip to the United States is not the country to which he owes allegiance, he must also have his passport visaed by a diplomatic or consular officer therein of his own country. Moreover, every alien com- ing to the United States must have his passport, or document in the nature of a passport, visaed by a consular officer of the United States, in the country from which he embarks for the United States, or, if he comes by land, from which he enters the United States. The form of such visa should read as follows: "Seen.

Seen. Number-

                                           The bearer is to depart for the United States of America between (date) and (date)."

For the purpose of ascertaining the identity, nationality, and objects of aliens enter- ing the United States (except those starting from Canada), each alien, except a duly accredited official, must, after due publication of this order, furnish to the American diplomatic or consular officer who visaes his passport, in the foreign country from which he starts on his trip to the United States, and to the American authorities at the port of entry or elsewhere in the United States, a written declaration setting forth the bearer's name, occupation, and nationality and the names and places of birth of the members of his immediate family who accompany him, and stating the following facts: (1) The date and place of the bearer's birth; (2) the nationality and race of his father and mother; (3) the place of the bearer's last foreign residence and the other places, if any, where he has resided within the past five years; (4) if he has ever been in this country, the dates and objects of his visits and the places and addresses where he resided or sojourned; (5) the date set for his departure for the United States, the port of embarkation, and the name of the ship on which he is to sail, if he goes by water; (6) names and addresses of persons acquainted with the applicant in the country from which he starts and in the United States; (7) the expected duration and object of his proposed visit to this country, the documentary or other proofs of such object submitted, and the place or places in the United States where he expects to sojourn or reside; (8) that the bearer knows and under- stands the provisions of Section 3 of the Immigration Act of February 5, 1917, excluding certain classes of aliens from the United States, and is certain that he does not fall within any of such classes; (9) that the bearer understands that if, on arrival, at a port of the United States, he is found to be a member of a class excluded by said immigration

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, NOVEMBER 9, 1917. 641

law, he will be deported if practicable, or, if for any reason deportation should be found to be impracticable, will be held in detention indefinitely in an immigration station or other place of confinement, and that he is, with full understanding thereof, assuming all risks involved in a possible return trip in consequence of being rejected under such law. A wife or minor child who does not expect to reside with the husband or father in this country will be required to carry a separate declaration.

   Each declaration must be affirmed or sworn to before a consular officer, or a diplo- matic officer of the United States, if specially authorized, and signed in triplicate, and a photograph of the declarant must be attached to each copy with an impression of the official seal. The declaration must be made at least two weeks before the date of intended departure, except in cases of extraordinary emergency. One copy of the declaration must be filed in the embassy, legation, or consulate by which the passport is first visaed, one copy forwarded immediately to the Commissioner of Immigration or inspector in charge at the port of entry by which the declarant expects to enter the United States, and one copy fastened to the passport of the declarant, in such a way that it may be removed upon his departure from the United States. The copy last mentioned must be presented with the passport to the official at the port of entry into this country who examines passports, and to the immigration official who inspects the holder, and to such other officials in the United States as may be authorized to inspect such documents.

   No fee shall be collected by diplomatic or consular officers of the United States for or in connection with the execution of such declaration or the visaing of passports.

   No American embassy, legation, or consulate shall visa a passport of an alien enemy of the United States to enable him to enter this country unless special authorization of this Government has been previously obtained.

   In order to prevent or avoid so far as possible the hardships and dangers involved in deportation under present conditions, a diplomatic or consular officer to whom a pass- port is presented for visa shall ascertain to the fullest extent practicable whether the holder is a member of any one of the classes excluded from the United States by the provisions of Section 3 of the Immigration Act of February 5, 1917, and if in the judg- ment of such official the alien is a member of any such excluded class he shall so advise the alien, informing him of the serious risk he is taking in attempting to enter the United States, and, if the alien nevertheless insists on proceeding, shall visa the passport if it is valid, but shall place upon the alien's declaration the notation: "Advised that he will probably be rejected and deported." In such case the consul making the notation shall write upon the copy of the declaration to be sent to the proper immigration official in the United States a statement of his reasons for making it.

Aliens "likely to become a public charge," from whatsoever cause such likelihood may arise, are excluded by Section 3 of the Immigration Act (S. Rep. No. 352, 64th Cong., Ist. sess.). Unless, during the present state of war, aliens applying for admission present evidence by which their identity and nationality are positively proved, such aliens, if they enter the United States, are liable to be taken into custody as enemies and thereby become public charges. Therefore, immigration officials will exclude from the United States any alien who may apply for admission and not be in possession of a passport or other official document establishing his identity and nationality, visaed in the manner specified in this order, and will cause such alien to be returned to the country whence he came, at the expense of the transportation company involved: Provided, however, That such exclusion shall not be made in the cases of alien seamen arriving in ports of the United States, unless such seamen apply for permanent admission to this country, or unless it is necessary to require such papers in order to ascertain whether alien seamen are enemies of the United States; nor in the cases of aliens enter- ing temporarily from contiguous foreign territory to follow agricultural pursuits, in accorglance with the terms of Department of Labour circular of May 23, 1917, and the supplements thereto. Alien seamen not provided with passports or other official docu- ments showing their identity and nationality may be detained until they receive passports from the consular representatives of the countries whose nationality they claim. Any alien who enters the United States in violation of this order shall be arrested, in substantial conformity with rule 22 of the Immigration Rules, with a view to his deportation to the country whence he came, and his detention under proper restrictions until such deporta- tion can be effected.

* NOTE (1).--Under the Trading with the Enemy Proclamations of the 25th June, and 10th November, 1915, all Proclamations relating to Trading with the Enemy apply to all persons or bodies of persons of enemy nationality, resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, and consequently it is an offence to trade with any person or body of persons of enemy nationality resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, even though such person or body of persons is not included by name in the Statutory List, and the omission of the name of any such person or body of persons from such list is not an authority or licence to trade with such person or body of persons.

† NOTE (2).-Where a person or firm mentioned in the list has more than one address in the country or group of countries under which the name of the person or firm appears, all dealings in that country, or in any country in the group, with such person or firm are prohibited, even in cases where one only of the addresses or one only of the countries is specifically mentioned.

 NOTE (3). The above additions and removals were made in the United Kingdom on the dates which appear opposite to the respective names.

NOTE (4). A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 5th April, 1917, may be obtained from the Government Printers, Messrs. Noronha & Co., No. 14a, Des Voeux Road Central, who can also supply copies of the Orders in Council made since that date.

§ NOTE (5).It is not unusual for firms in Holland and the Netherland East Indies to be regis- tered under names commencing with descriptive terms such as "Handel Maatschappy" (Trading Company) or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (Limited Liability Company). In such cases it has been found more convenient to publish the firm under its proper name, followed by the general descriptive term "Handel Maatschappy" or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (N.V.), as in the case of an English company. For instance, Handel Maatschappy Louvre and Naamlooze Venootschap de Komeet v/h Dumonceau Frères will be found under Louvre and Komeet respectively, and not necessarily under "Handel" or "Naamiooze," though cross references may be given.

The following Message from His Majesty the KING is published for general informa- tion:

TO MY PEOPLE.

The world-wide struggle for the triumph of right and liberty is entering upon

its last and most difficult phase. The enemy is striving by desperate assault and subtle intrigue to perpetuate the wrongs already committed and stem the tide of a free civilisa- tion. We have yet to complete the great task to which more than three years ago we dedi- cated ourselves. At such a time I would call upon you to devote a special day to prayer that we may have the clearsightedness and strength necessary for the victory of our cause. This victory will be gained only if we steadfastly remember the responsibility which rests upon us and in the spirit of reverent obedience ask the blessing of Almighty God upon our endeavours. With hearts grateful for the divine guidance which has led us so far towards our goal let us seek to be enlightened in our understanding and fortified in our courage in facing the sacrifices we may yet have to make before our work is done. I therefore hereby appoint 6th January the first Sunday of the year to be set aside as a special day of prayer and thanksgiving in all the churches throughout my dominions and require that this proclamation be read at the services held on that day.

SIR,I have the honour to transmit to you, for information in the Colony under your government, copies of Royal Warrants amending the rules governing the award of the Albert Medal and the Edward Medal.

2. It will be seen that the bronze medals in each case, which are those usually awarded, will in future be called the "Albert Medal" and the "Edward Medal" respectively and that the higher degree of each deco- ration, which will be given only for acts of extreme and heroic daring, will be known in the one case as the "Albert Medal in Gold" and in the other as the "Edward Medal in Silver."

GEORGE THE FIFTH, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas King, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India, to all to whom these Presents shall come, Greeting!

WHEREAS Her late Majesty Queen Victoria, being desirous of distinguishing by

     some mark of Her Royal Favour the many heroic acts performed by Mariners and others who endanger their own lives in saving or endeavouring to save the lives of others from shipwrecks and other perils of the sea; and the many heroic acts performed on land by those who endanger their own lives in saving or endeavouring to save the lives of others from accidents in mines, on railways and at fires, or other peril within Her Dominions, other than perils of the sea, did, by Warrants under the Royal, Sign Manual bearing date respectively the 7th March, 1866, the 12th April, 1867, and the 30th-April, 1877, for Herself, Her Heirs and Successors institute and create as a mark of Royal Approbation of such heroic acts, new Decorations styled respectively "The Albert Medal of the First Class" and "The Albert Medal of the Second Class," which Decorations Her Majesty was desirous should be highly prized and eagerly sought after:

    And whereas the said Warrants were subsequently amended and all the Warrants relating to these Decorations were consolidated by a Warrant under the Sign Manual bearing date the 5th June, 1905:

And whereas it is Our Pleasure to amend the style of the said Decorations:

We are graciously pleased to make, ordain and establish the following Rules and Ordinances for the government of the Decorations :----

I. It is ordained that the Decoration in each case shall be styled "The Albert Medal"; but when it is awarded for acts of such extreme and herioc daring as to merit a special degree of recognition, it shall be styled "The Albert Medal in Gold."

!

II. It is ordained that the Albert Medal shall consist of a bronze oval-shaped Badge or Decoration, having in the centre a Monogram composed of the letters V. and A. erect upon an enamelled background, surrounded by a Garter inscribed in raised letters "For Gallantry in Saving Life at Sea,' or "For Gallantry in Saving Life on Land," as the case may be, and surmounted by a represen- tation of the Crown of His Royal Highness the lamented Prince Consort; but where the Medal conferred is "The Albert Medal in Gold," it shall consist of a gold oval-shaped Badge or Decoration having in the centre a Monogram composed of the letters V. and A. erect in gold upon an enamelled back- ground, surrounded by a Garter in bronze inscribed in raised letters of gold "For Gallantry in Saving Life at Sea,' or "For Gallantry in Saving Life on Land," as the case may be, and surmounted by a representation in gold of the Crown of His Royal Highness the lamented Prince Consort. When the Medal is given for gallantry in saving life at sea, the letters V. and A. shall be interlaced with an anchor erect in bronze or gold, as the case may be. The Medal shall be suspended from a riband of an inch and three-eighths in width, having two white longitudinal stripes; in the case of the "Albert Medal in Gold" the riband shall have four white longitudinal stripes.

The colour of the enamel and riband shall be dark blue when the Medal is con- ferred for gallantry in saving life at sea, and crimson when it is conferred for gallantry in saving life on land.

III. It is ordained that the Medal shall only be awarded to those of Our faithful subjects who, in saving or endeavouring to save the lives of others from perils of the sea, or from perils on land, have endangered their own lives, and that such award shall be made only on a recommendation to Us by Our Principal Secretary of State for the Home Department.

Provided always that where the Medal is conferred for gallantry in saving life at sea, the preliminary steps and inquiry shall, if the award be to anyone belong- ing to the Royal Navy or the Royal Marines, be with the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, and in other cases with the President of the Board of Trade.

IV. It is ordained that the names of those persons upon whom We may be pleased to confer the Medal shall be published in the London Gazette. Where the Medal is conferred for gallantry in saving life on land a Register of such names shall be kept in the Office of Our Principal Secretary of State for the Home Department. Where the Medal is conferred for gallantry in saving life at sea a Register of the names of such of these persons as belong to the Royal Navy or the Royal Marines shall be kept in the Office of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, and a Register of the names of such of these persons as do not belong to the Royal Navy or the Royal Marines shall be kept in the Office of the Board of Trade.

V. It is ordained that the Medal shall be worn suspended from the left breast. VI.. It is ordained that any act of gallantry which is worthy of recognition by the award of the Albert Medal, but is performed by one upon whom the Decora- tion has already been conferred, may, on a recommendation to Us by Our Principal Secretary of State for the Home Department, be recorded by a bar attached to the riband by which the Medal is suspended; and for every such additional act an additional bar may be added.

VII. In order to make such additional provision as shall effectually preserve pure these most honourable Decorations, it is ordained that if any person on whom any of such Decorations is conferred be guilty of any crime or disgraceful conduct which in Our judgment disqualifies him for the same, his name shall, by an especial Warrant under Our Royal Sign Manual, be forthwith erased from the register of those upon whom the said Decoration shall have been conferred, and his Medal shall be forfeited. And every person to whom the said Medal is given shall before receiving the same enter into an engagement to return the same if his name shall be so erased as aforesaid under this regulation. It is hereby further declared that We, Our Heirs and Successors shall be the sole judges of the circumstances demanding such expulsion. Moreover, We shall at all times haye power to order that any person who

688

may at any time have been expelled shall be restored to the enjoyment of the Decoration.

VIII. The warrant of the 5th June, 1905, is hereby revoked.

Given at Our Court at Saint James's, this Twenty-eighth day of August, One thousand nine hundred and seventeen, in the Eighth year of Our Reign.

NOTE (1).-Under the Trading with the Enemy Proclamations of the 25th June, and 10th November, 1915, all Proclamations relating to Trading with the Enemy apply to all persons or bodies of persons of enemy nationality, resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, and consequently it is an offence to trade with any person or body of persons of enemy nationality resident or carrying on business in China, Siam, Persia, Morocco, Liberia or Portuguese East Africa, even though such person or body of persons is not included by name in the Statutory List, and the omission of the name of any such person or body of persons from such list is not an authority or licence to trade with such person or body of persons.

    † NOTE (2).---Where a person or firm mentioned in the list has more than one address in the country or group of countries under which the name of the person or firm appears, all dealings in that country, or in any country in the group, with such person or firm are prohibited, even in cases where one only of the addresses or one only of the countries is specifically mentioned.

NOTE (3). The above additions and removals were made in the United Kingdom on the dates which appear opposite to the respective names.

NOTE (4).-A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 5th April, 1917, may be obtained from

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 7, 1917.

the Government Printers, Messrs. Noronha & Co., No. 14A, Des Voeux Road Central, who can also supply copies of the Orders in Council made since that date.

  § NOTE (5).-It is not unusual for firms in Holland and the Netherland East Indies to be regis- tered under names commencing with descriptive terms such as "Handel Maatschappy" (Trading Company) or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (Limited Liability Company). In such cases it has been found more convenient to publish the firm under its proper name, followed by the general descriptive term "Handel Maatschappy" or "Naamlooze Venootschap" (N.V.), as in the case of an English company. For instance, Handel Maatschappy Louvre and Naamlooze Venootschap de Komeet v/h Dunionceau Frères will be found under Louvre and Komeet respectively, and not necessarily under "Handel" or "Naamlooze," though cross references may be given.

   No. 537.-It is hereby notified that His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government in Council has, under Section 7 of the Holidays Ordinance, 1912, Ordinance No. 5 of 1912, appointed Monday, the 24th day of December, 1917, to be observed as a General Holiday.
