COUNCIL CHAMBER,

9th January, 1919.

NOTE (1). All persons and firms resident or carrying on business within the Colony are prohi- bited from having, with any person or firm mentioned in this list, or in any list issued under the Trading with the Enemy (Statutory List) Proclamation, Hongkong, any dealings other than such as are expressly authorised by paragraph 5 of the Proclamation. The principal proclamation was pub- lished in the Gazette of the 21st July, 1916, and an amending proclamation was published in the Gazette of the 5th April, 1918.

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). 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.

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 "Naambooze," though cross references may be given.

In consideration of its efforts to achieve independence, Great Britain regards the Czecho-Slovaks as an Allied nation, and recognises the unity of the three Czecho-Slovak armies as an Allied and belligerent army waging regular warfare against Austria- Hungary and Germany.

Great Britain also recognises the right of the Czecho-Slovak National Council as the supreme organ of the Czecho-Slovak national interests, and as the present trustee of the future Czecho-Slovak Government, to exercise supreme authority over this Allied and belligerent army.

[Enclosure 2 in Circular despatch of 21st November, 1918.]

  3.

COUNCIL CHAMBER,

A. D. BALL,

Clerk of Councils.

23rd January, 1919.

    NOTE (1).-All persons and firms resident or carrying on business within the Colony are prohi- bited from having, with any person or firm mentioned in this list, or in any list issued under the Trading with the Enemy (Statutory List) Proclamation, Hongkong, any dealings other than such as are expressly authorised by paragraph 5 of the Proclamation. The principal proclamation was pub- lished in the Gazette of the 21st July, 1916, and an amending proclamation was published in the Gazette of the 5th April, 1918.

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

    NOTE (5). A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 4th January, 1918, 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. The consolidating statutory list contains on page 10 a list of all the Orders in Council up to and including the 4th January, 1918. The dates of the subsequent Orders in Council are as follows:-

NOTE (6). 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.

COUNCIL CHAMBER,

6th February, 1919.

   NOTE (1) All persons and firms resident or carrying on business within the Colony are prohi- bited from having, with any person or firm mentioned in this list, or in any list issued under the Trading with the Enemy (Statutory List) Proclamation, Hongkong, any dealings other than such as are expressly authorised by paragraph 5 of the Proclamation. The principal proclamation was pub- lished in the Gazette of the 21st July, 1916, and an amending proclamation was published in the Gazette of the 5th April, 1918.

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

NOTE (5). A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 4th January, 1918, 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. The consolidating statutory list contains on page 10 a list of all the Orders in Council up to and including the 4th January, 1918. The dates of the subsequent Orders in Council are as follows :-

   NOTE (6).-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.

NOTE (6).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.

* NoȚE (7).-See, to the same effect, Note (7) to Notification No. 404 which was published in the Gazette of the 18th October, 1918.

NOTE (1). All persons and firms resident or carrying on business within the Colony are prohi- bited from having, with any person or firm mentioned in this list, or in any list issued under the Trading with the Enemy (Statutory List) Proclamation, Hongkong, any dealings other than such as are expressly authorised by paragraph 5 of the Proclamation. The principal proclamation was pub- lished in the Gazette of the 21st July, 1916, and an amending proclamation was published in the Gazette of the 5th April, 1918.

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).--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 (4). The dates in the margin are the dates on which the respective names were placed on the Statutory List in the United Kingdom.

    NOTE (5).-A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 4th January, 1918, 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 (6).-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.

   NOTE (6). 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.

    NOTE (1).-All persons and firms resident or carrying on business within the Colony are prohi- bited from having, with any person or firm mentioned in this list, or in any list issued under the Trading with the Enemy (Statutory List) Proclamation, Hongkong, any dealings other than such as are expressly authorised by paragraph 5 of the Proclamation. The principal proclamation was pub- lished in the Gazette of the 21st July, 1916, and an amending proclamation was published in the Gazette of the 5th April, 1918.

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).--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 (4).-The dates in the margin are the dates on which the respective names were placed on the Statutory List in the United Kingdom.

    NOTE (5).-A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 4th January, 1918, 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 (6).-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.

    Order made by the Officer Administering the Government in Council under section 9 of the Post Office Ordinance, 1900, Ordinance No. 6 of 1900, on the 10th day of April, 1919.

    Section 194 of the Postal Guide for 1918 is hereby repealed and the following sub- stituted therefor :-

"194. Compensation for the loss or damage in the post of an insured parcel or its contents, will not exceed the amount of the actual loss or damage, and will not be paid for a parcel containing any prohibited article, nor for a parcel which has been delivered without external trace of injury and has been accepted without remark, nor for damage of exceptionally fragile, articles which from their nature cannot reasonably be expected to travel safely by post, such as clay figures, soapstone and alabaster models, collections of butterflies and moths, china, and glassware.

Compensation will not be given as a matter of course when loss arises from tempest, shipwreck, earthquake, war or other causes beyond the control of the Post Office, but the Postmaster General will be prepared to consider on its merits any claim for compensation in respect of the total loss from fire, and shipwreck due to accidents of navigation, provided that such occured whilst the parcel was under the control of the Hongkong Postal Administration.

No claim for compensation will be admitted if made more than a year

The sender has the first claim to any compensation which may be pay-

able but he may waive his claim in favour of the addressee."

NOTE (3).---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 (4). The dates in the margin are the dates on which the respective names were placed on the Statutory List in the United Kingdom.

NOTE (5).-A consolidating statutory list, complete to the 4th January, 1918, 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 (6).-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

or "Naamlooze," though cross references may be given.

NOTE (6).-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

or "Naamlooze," though cross references may be given.

DEAR SIR HENRY MAY,-On the 21st January, I received a telegram from the Secre- tary of State for the Colonies as follows:-

"Greatly regret to inform you that Governor has tendered resignation which I "have accepted from end of February with much reluctance and warm. "thanks for his long and distinguished services. I do not doubt that "this feeling will be fully shared by the Colony for which he has done "so much.

MILNER."

to which I replied as follows on the 22nd January :---

66

"I have received with very great regret your telegram of January 20th announ- cing the resignation of the Governor. I propose to move a resolution at an early meeting of both Councils."

66

   I also caused letters to be addressed to the senior Unofficial Members of the Execu- tive and Legislative Councils and to the Public Press of which I enclose copies.*

I also enclose a copy* of the proceedings at the joint meeting of both Councils held on the 25th January. The speeches delivered reflect the general feeling of the commu- nity of this Colony. On the eve of what it is hoped will be a period of great develop- ment the loss of your wide experience and knowledge will be deeply felt. I desire on behalf of the Colony to convey to you, to Lady MAY and to the members of your family an expression of sincere regret at your retirement, and of gratitude for the great services that you have rendered.

Yours, &c.,

   DEAR SIR, I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 31st of January covering copies of telegraphic correspondence with Secretary of State for the Colonies on the subject of my resignation of the Governorship of Hongkong, together with a copy of the proceedings of a joint Meeting of the Executive and Legislative Councils held on the 25th January relating to the same subject.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, APRIL 17, 1919.

It is not surprising that you yourself and the Honourable Members of the Councils were, in the circumstances, at a loss to understand the reasons which induced me to ask the Secretary of State so suddenly to relieve me of my duties. I now hasten to inform you that on the 15th of January I was obliged to send the enclosed telegram to Lord Milner, and that I received the enclosed reply.

I am happy to say that since the attack from which I suffered, my health has gradually improved.

    The Resolution which you were good enough to move at the meeting of the Councils and the speeches in which the Resolution was supported have profoundly moved me; and I would ask you to convey to the Honourable Members of the Councils my deep and abiding sense of their warm appreciation of whatever services I have been able to render to the Colony of Hongkong. I value especially the expressions of esteem and affection. which they have extended to my wife and to my family.

    The sorrow which we feel at parting with Hongkong is, we beg to assure you, wonderfully lightened by the sympathy and appreciation which your letter and its enclosures express.

I have, &c.,

(Sd.) F. H. MAY.

Copy of telegram sent to Lord Milner on January 15th, 1919.

    On the 10th of January I had a slight cerebro-vascular attack affecting right leg. In doctors opinion should not risk return to post, especially if pressure of work. On public grounds alone it appears best to tender my resignation with great regret, from such date as you may decide.

MAY.

Copy of answer received from Lord Milner on January 21st, 1919.

    Have received your telegrom 15th January with great regret. In the circumstances can only accept your resignation from the end of February with much reluctance and warm thanks for your long and distinguished services. Am informing Hongkong. Sincerely hope that with rest your health will be re-established.

LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.

    No. 214. The Honourable Mr. Ho Fooк gave notice, on the 2nd May, 1919, of the following questions:-

Will the Government state

(a) Whether the terms and conditions attached to the letting of the piece. of Crown land north of the Central Market have been varied or modified since the highest tender was accepted: And, if so, what are the variations or modifications and the reasons therefor?

(b) What was the amount of the second highest tender?.

The replies thereto are as follows:-

(a) A disagreement occurred between the Government and the lessee regarding the proper interpretation of one of the conditions of the lease, and the lessee refused to sign the lease agreement.

The Government was advised that the lessee was bound by his con- tract, but the condition in question was admittedly worded in an unsatis- factory manner, and it was considered advisable to settle the matter by negotiation rather than to bring it before the Courts. The lessee was very willing to meet the Government in the matter and terms were forthwith arranged, to the effect that the monthly rent should be reduced from $2,520 to $2,100 and that the lessee should have an option to continue the lease, which was due to expire on the 28th January, 1920, until the 31st December, 1921, subject to one month's notice if at any time after the 28th January, 1920, the Government should require the site for its

own use.

In making this compromise the Government was guided by the follow- ing considerations. A dispute had occurred between the outgoing and the incoming lessee, with the result that the former had removed all the buildings that were on the site. It would take time and money to erect new buildings and the Government was not prepared to grant a long lease, as it would soon require the land for its own purposes. It seemed probable in the circumstances that, if the site was put up to tender again, the rental would be much reduced, and at the same time it was desired to avoid the expensive legal proceedings of uncertain result which would be necessary in order to enforce the contract which had been made.

(b) The amount of the second highest tender was $2,370 a month.

  No. 215.-The Honourable Mr. Ho Fook gave notice, on the 2nd April, 1919, of the following questions :---

Will the Government state

(a) Whether the terms and conditions attached to the Kowloon Ferry Service have been varied or modified since the highest tender was accepted? And, if so, what are the variations or modifications and the reasons therefor?

(b) What was the amount of the second highest tender?

The replies thereto are as follows:-

(a) The Government is negotiating with the Ferry Company with regard to substantial modifications in the terms and conditions attached to the Yaumati and Shamshuipo Ferry Service.

It is considered to be in the public interest that all possible facili- ties should be given to the Chinese population in order to induce them them to live on the north side of the harbour and so to relieve the con- gestion in Victoria; and to this end a cheap ferry service is essential. The Government does not wish to make a profit out of the service and and it has suggested to the Company that it should reduce the fares which it is entitled under its lease to charge, on condition that a reduc- tion is made in the monthly payment of $9,900 due to the Govern- ment. An agreement has not yet been reached.

(b) The amount of the second highest tender was $6,000 a month.

LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.

No. 231.--The Honourable Mr. LAU CHU-PAK gave notice, on the 8th May, 1919, of the following question:-

In view of the fact that armed robberies have been so frequent of late, will the Government arrange with the Military Authorities to have a sufficient number of soldiers seconded for regular police duties, until the present wave of crime has subsided, or the regular Police Force has been adequately streng- thened?

The reply thereto is as follows:-

Men seconded from the garrison have been employed as policemen since 18th March, 1918. At the present time twenty-three men from the Manchester Regiment and twenty-five from the 74th Punjabis Regiment are doing regular police duties. The Police Force has recently been strengthened by the addi- tion of eighteen Chinese constables; eight men have recently arrived from India and a further draft of eleven men is due very shortly; twenty European constables have been demobilized and some of them are en route for Hongkong.

It is considered that these arrangements are sufficient.

LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.

  No. 242.-The Honourable Mr. C. G. ALABASTER, O.B.E., gave notice, on the 27th May, 1919, of the following question :-

Will the Government take over the private pumping station, which now supplies Broadwood Road with water, or make other provision for the water supply of this district, so that the residents may get their water on the same terms as prevail in other parts of the Colony?

The reply thereto is as follows:--

The Government is not prepared to take over the private pumping station, the gravitation tanks of which are situated in a private house.

It is the intention to build filter beds in the neighbourhood of the eastern end of Bowen Road, and a sum of $40,000 is provided in the present year's estimates for commencing the work. Broadwood Ridge will be supplied from these beds, when they are completed.

The purchasers of lots in this neighbourhood accepted the following condi- tion of sale:---

"The Government is unable to ensure a supply of water to the lot, but

66

will, at the expense of the purchaser, lay a service to the nearest "point at which a supply by gravitation can be obtained from the "existing water works system."

In view of the stringent and drastic measures that have been and are being. taken by the Chinese Authorities in Kwongtung to root out bad characters in the districts adjacent to this Colony, what steps have the Government taken or propose to take to prevent such people from using this Colony as a field for their activities?

The reply thereto is as follows :-

The Government has no information regarding the measures referred to. It is thought inadvisable to make public the methods which are adopted for dealing with undesirable characters.

A. D. BALL,

    No. 244.--The Horourable Mr. C. G. ALABASTER, O.B.E., gave notice, on the 16th May, 1919, of the following question :---

Will the Government take steps to provide juvenile offenders in Gaol with employment and elementary instruction during part of each day outside their cells, instead of keeping them in cells for 22 or 23 hours out of every 24, a confinement which must be injurious to them physically, mentally, and inorally?

The reply thereto is as follows:

Arrangements have been made for juvenile offenders to work in association in the gallery of F. Hall daily from 6.30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday afternoons and Sundays excepted.

Their work will generally consist of oakum picking, envelope making, or light tailoring.

In 1918 the daily average of juvenile offenders in the Gaol was two, and the length of sentence was in most cases very short.

QUESTIONS.--Mr. LAU CHU-PAK, pursuant to notice, asked the following questions :- 1. There being numerous complaints regarding the refusal of the Police Department to issue

hawkers' licences in many cases, will the Government state:-

(a) What was the largest number of hawkers' licences that had ever been issued, and

what is the total number of current licences that have been issued to date? (b) In view of the fact that the refusal to issue such licences may operate hardly on many deserving poor people, and of the consideration that those who are unable to obtain such licences may go to swell the number of bad characters in this Colony, whether instructions will be given to the Captain Superintendent of Police not to withhold licences from applicants therefor, unless they are known to be bad characters ?

2. In the case of boys arrested for hawking without a licence, will the Government have the law so amended as to empower the Magistrates to punish the parents or guardians instead of the boys themselves?

A. G. M. FLETCHER, Colonial Secretary.

FINDING.

We find that Mr. W. Hudson, the number of whose certificate of competency as Master is 024006 of London left the bridge, while in charge of the deck of the British S.S. Chun Sang (in which ship he was serving as Second Mate) without being relieved and without permission, while the ship was sea, at 8.40 p.m. on 16th May, 1919, and again at 9.10 p.m.

    We further find that he was on the same date and time under the influence of drink to such a degree as to render him unfit for duty.

We therefore direct that the certificate of competency shall be suspended for 6

months.

DESPATCHES FROM THE SECRETARY OF STATE.

No. 293.

CIRCULAR.

DOWNING STREET,

>

25th April, 1919.

SIR, With reference to previous Circular despatches on the subject of the exporta- tion of jute and jute goods, I have the honour to inform you that it has now been decided to remove all restrictions regulating the exportation from the United Kingdom of jute ma factures to all destinations excepting enemy countries, Russia, Norway, Sweden, mark, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Finland. Accordingly, the following articles been removed from Section A to Section C of the United Kingdom Prohibited rt List--bags and sacks made wholly or partly of jute, jute cordage and twine, te padding, piece goods made wholly or partly of jute, jute roofing felt rags, jute twist waste and webbing, jute yarns. Jute rags, other than roofing felt rags, and nitrate bags have been removed to List B.

    2. The existing regulations with regard to the exportation of jute manufactures to the countries referred to in the preceding paragraph will be maintained.

    3. Accordingly, jute goods exported from the United Kingdom to countries other than those specified in the first paragraph may now be consigned direct to any importer who is not included in the Statutory or General Black List, and Consular supervision. will no longer be exercised. Exports from India are on the same footing as exports from the United Kingdom.

    4. In addition, the practice of calling for special guarantees against re-exportation of textile bags, wrappers or sacks used solely as containers for other goods which are exported from the United Kingdom to Spain, Portugal, Greece, Morocco and Norway has been discontinued. It is not proposed for the moment to alter the system by which, in the case of exports to Holland, Denmark and Sweden, "coverings guarantees are given to the Trade Associations in those countries and the fact indicated on the guarantee or certificate relating to the goods themselves, but it is not proposed to withhold the issue of licences for goods packed in textile coverings merely because the "coverings guar- antees" have not been given.

5. Relaxations have also been made in the restrictions imposed on exports of raw jute. Exports both from India and from the United Kingdom are at present subject to licence, but it is considered that for the present there is no necessity for any rationing scheme in connection with exports of raw jute from India, though such a scheme may become necessary at a later date if the demands on the part of the United Kingdom and Allied Countries, should, before the next crop is available, become substantially greater than now appears likely.

     6. In the circumstances the Government of India have been informed that, while the exportation of raw jute should remain prohibited to all destinations, they may issue licences for the present as freely as they think fit to all destinations except Spain and. those countries to which the United Kingdom List C applies.

7. I have to request that the lines stated above may be followed in connection with the exportation of jute and jute goods from the territory under

your Government.

   By His Excellency CLAUD SEVERN, Companion of the Most Distinguished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George, the Officer Administering the Government of the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies :

   Whereas by section 189 of the Army Act it is enacted that where the Governor of a Colony in which any of His Majesty's forces are serving declares at any time or times that by reason of the imminence of active service or of the recent existence of active service it is necessary for the public service that the forces in the Colony, should be temporarily subject to the said Act as if they were on active service then on the publica- tion in general orders of any such declaration the forces to which the declaration applies shall be deemed to be on active service for the period mentioned in the declaration so that the period mentioned in any one declaration do not exceed three months from the date thereof:

And Whereas by declaration made on the 5th day of August 1914 it was declared by Proclamation published in the Government Gazette Extraordinary dated the 5th day of August 1914 to be necessary for the public service that His Majesty's forces in the Colony be subject to the said Act for the period of three months from the date thereof as if they were on active service:

And Whereas by Proclamations made on the 4th day of November, 1914, 3rd February, 30th April, 30th July, and 29th October, 1915, 2nd February, 2nd May, 28th July, and 27th October, 1916, 2nd February, 2nd May, 2nd August, and 2nd November, 1917, 3rd February, 26th April, 26th July, and 25th October, 1918, and 24th January, 1919, the said declaration was renewed for a period of three months from time to time:

And Whereas the said period of three months will expire on the 3rd day of August 1919 Now therefore I, CLAUD SEVERN, Companion of the Most Distinguished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George, the Officer Administering the Government of the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies, being of opinion that the necessity of His Majesty's forces in the Colony being subject to the said Act continues do hereby declare that by reason of the imminence of active service it is necessary for the public service that His Majesty's forces in this Colony be subject to the said Act for the further period of three months from and after the 3rd day of August 1919.

DESPATCHES FROM THE SECRETARY OF STATE.

No. 373.

CIRCULAR.

DOWNING STREET,

20th June, 1919.

SIR, I have the honour to inform you that the following arrangements have been made with regard to the exportation of goods from the United Kingdom to Finland.

2. Goods will be divided into two categories :-

(A) Those included in the Free List, which appears as Appendix 2 of the pamphlet enclosed in my despatch Circular (2) of the 22nd of May, 1919, may be shipped without any restriction.

(B) In all other cases export licences will be granted only after import licences have been granted by an Inter-Allied Trade Committee which has been established at Helsingfors. When the Committee has issued an import licence, His Majesty's Consul will report the fact by telegraph to His Majesty's Government, and arrangements will then be made for the granting of the necessary permission for exportation. It will be neces- sary for the goods when shipped to be accompanied by a document shewing that permission has been granted for their exportation to Finland.

3. It is thought that it would be convenient if a similar arrangement could be made as regards exports from the British Colonies and Protectorates to Finland. In that case it is suggested that, if the Colonial or Protectorate Governments should receive applica- tions for permission to export goods (not being goods on the Free List) to Finland, the applicant should be advised to instruct the intending consignee to communicate with the Inter-Allied Trade Committee. If an import licence were granted, His Majesty's Consul would report the fact to His Majesty's Government, and I should then inform the Oversea Government concerned by telegraph.

4. I take this opportunity to invite your attention to notices appearing in the Board of Trade Journal" of the 20th March, respecting trade with Finland, North Russia, Archangel and Murmansk; in the issue of 17th April respecting exports to Murmansk, Archangel, and White Sea Ports; and in the issue of 22nd May respecting shipments to Archangel.

DOWNING STREET,

11th July, 1919.

SIR,-With reference to my predecessors' Circular despatches of the 20th May, 1887, and 10th October, 1905, I have the honour to inform you that the Greek Govern- ment have denounced all Commercial Agreements with the British Empire. They will accordingly terminate on the 3rd March, 1920, this being twelve months from the date of the note from the Greek Minister conveying his Government's decision.

2. In giving notice of denunciation the Greek Government intimate their readiness to renew the Conventions in question tacitly for successive periods of three months, so that, failing three months' final notice being given on March 3rd, 1920, they will remain in force until June 3rd, 1920, and failing notice on this last date named, they will remain in force until September 3rd, 1920, and so forth. This proposal has been accepted by His Majesty's Government.

I have, &c.,

    No. 447.-The following despatch of the Secretary of State for the Colonies is published for general information

CIRCULAR.

DOWNING STREET,

1st August, 1919.

SIR, I have the honour to confirm my telegrams of the 12th and 15th July with regard to the raising of the blockade of Germany and the issue of general licences autho- rising the resumption of trade generally with Germany and German Austria.

·

2. The raising of the blockade has rendered it possible to relax a number of the restrictions on trading with other countries, which may be summarised as follows:-

(a) It is no longer necessary for the Governments of the Colonies not possessing responsible Government and Protectorates to maintain any export prohi- bitions corresponding to section C of the United Kingdom prohibited list, and the only articles of which exportation from the Colonies and Protectorates need be prohibited are those specified in my predecessor's telegram of the 7th January as modified by subsequent despatches and telegrams, with the addition, in the case of Bulgaria, of the articles specified in the United Kingdom Lists D and E and, in the case of the coun- tries to which List D applies, the articles included in that list. Parti- culars of these lists will be found on page 10 of the pamphlet enclosed in my Circular despatch No. 2 of the 22nd May. Applications for per- mission to export goods, of which exportation from the Colonies remains prohibited, should be referred to me, except in those cases in which you have general authority to allow exports without reference to me. (b) In the case of exports to Norway, Sweden and Denmark, the requirement that goods must be consigned to particular importing associations has already been withdrawn, and a similar arrangement has now been made in the case of exports to Holland and Switzerland. Consequently exports to those countries may now be consigned direct to the importers and not to the Netherlands Oversea Trust or the Société Suisse de Surveillance Economique. It is also permissible to consign goods "to order" in the case of exports to any country.

(c) It is no longer necessary to obtain the approval of the Inter-Allied Trade Committee at Helsingfors before exports to Finland are permitted, but you should of course refer to me any applications for permission to export to Finland goods of which exportation to that country remains prohibited. There are, however, still a number of import prohibitions in force in Finland, and exporters in the Colonies should be warned that it will be necessary for them to arrange with intending consignees for the issue of the necessary import licences.

(d) In view of the fact that imports from Germany and German Austria are now permitted, it is no longer necessary to require certificates of origin in the case of imports from neutral countries contiguous to Germany or to stipulate that imports from these countries shall not contain more than 5% of enemy origin.

3. In addition to the general licences mentioned in the first paragraph, licences have already been issued allowing trade with Turkey, Bulgaria, Czecho Slovakia, Jugo Slavia, Bosnia, Herzegovina and Dalmatia, and you should issue similar licences in respect of trading with those countries if you have not already done so. The effect will be that trading will in future be permissible with all enemy countries (subject, of course, to the remaining export prohibitions) except as regards the parts of Hungary not in Allied occupation, since no general licence has yet been issued authorising resumption of trade with that country.

ROYAL OBSERVATORY, HONGkong.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.

    1. The Marconi International Maritime Communication Company have issued the attached circular to their operators, and shipmasters are earnestly requested to cooperate in the forecasting and storm warning work of the Royal Observatory, Hongkong, by arranging for meteorological observations to be made in accordance with the programme given in the circular, and transmitted by the wireless operator without delay.

    2. The accuracy and utility of the Observatory forecasts will increase in proportion to the number of ships cooperating, the accuracy of the observations, and the promptness with which they are despatched. In the interest of shipping, therefore, every master possessing a radio-telegraphic installation should send observations at the hours stated; viz., 6 a.m. and 2 p.m. of the 120th Meridian Time, and endeavour to make the service as efficient as possible.

    3. It is requested that mercurial barometers should be used whenever possible, and that owners should cooperate by supplying their ships with at least one good mercurial barometer, of the Board of Trade pattern. Very few aneroid barometers are satisfactory. Generally speaking, the index error varies considerably from time to time, and is seldom constant throughout the scale. Moreover their readings are usually affected by changes. of temperature though they are supposed to be compensated in this respect.

In every case the readings should be followed by the word "Mercury" if a mercurial barometer is read, or "Aneroid" if an aneriod is read.

    4. It is very important that a few readings (at least four) of the ship's barometer (the barometer used for the wireless messages) should be taken in Hongkong and forwarded to the Observatory, in order that the correction to the Observatory Standard may be obtained; otherwise the barometer readings are useless. It is also very important that the readings should be exactly as read off, without any correction what- ever, except in the case of ships which have not sent comparison observations to the Observatory. Such ships should correct the readings for index error, and reduce them to 32° Fahrenheit, sea level, and gravity at 45° latitude; using the best index error available and adding the word "corrected".

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, SEPTEMBER 26, 1919. 409

Details of the arrangements are given hereunder :---

1. A summary of meteorological conditions and weather forecasts will be broad- casted by Cape d'Aguilar daily at 1 p.m. Hongkong standard time (5 a.m. G. M. T.) and repeated at 5 p.m. Hongkong standard time (9 a.m. G. M. T.). 2. Storm warnings are broadcasted at about noon and repeated every two hours until midnight. If a second warning is issued during the day the later warning will be substituted.

3. When within range of Cape d'Aguilar the Captain will arrange for observations to be made at 6 a.m. and 2 p.m. Hongkong time (10 p.m. and 6 a.m. G. M. T.), and a message, prepared by the observer, will be handed to the operator for transmission containing the following information:-

(a.) Ship's name, position, and the time of observation (G. M. T.).

(b.) Barometer reading (with no correction whatever).

(c.) Thermometer reading (if the barometer is of the mercurial type). (d.) Wind direction and force.

(e.) State of weather (in plain language).

Under no circumstances will the operator write these messages,

4. Reports for transmission from the ship will be addressed to " Royal Observa- tory, Hongkong," and immediately on the acceptance of these messages the operator will enter (a) Prefix "S", (b) Date, (c) Time handed in (G. M. T.).

5. All messages handed in under the above conditions shall be dealt with as

follows:-

They shall be communicated to the coast station at the first opportunity,

and shall receive priority as Government messages.

The greatest care shall be observed to have them correctly transmitted ;

wherever possible, each message shall be repeated.

6. All messages shall be treated free of coast tax, ship tax, and land charges. 7. Reports handed in for transmission written on any form other than on the message form numbered SI, shall be affixed to a message form SI in such a manner as not to cover the space reserved for service instructions and other data.

8. The Hongkong Observatory also sends wireless Time Signals via Cape d'Aguilar at the even seconds between 11.56 a.m. and noon, and between 8.56 p.m. and 9 p.m. Hongkong time (3.56 a.m. to 4 a.m. and 12.56 p.m. to 1 p.m. G.

No. 465.---The following Correspondence is published for general information :---

No. 185.

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 6th June, 1919.

    MY LORD,With reference to my telegram of the 22nd January, I have the honour to inform Your Lordship of the proceedings which have been taken in Hongkong in con- nection with the resignation by Sir HENRY MAY of the office of Governor.

2. A joint session of the Executive and Legislative Councils was held on the 25th January for the purpose of passing a resolution. I enclose a copy of the Hansard report of the meeting. I attach also a copy* of a letter in which I informed Sir HENRY MAY of the proceedings, and a copy of his letter in reply. This correspondence was published in the Gazette.

    3. The Community has decided that Sir HENRY MAY'S eminent services to the Colony will be most suitably commemorated by the erection of his statue, and the unofficial members of the Councils have made arrangements for the collection of subscriptions in small sums, in order that as many persons as possible may have the opportunity of parti- cipating. I consider this proposal a good one and I hope it will be carried into effect. The ladies of the Colony are arranging for the presentation of a book of photographs to Lady MAY.

    4. I have now received Your Lordship's telegram of the 2nd June in which you report that His Majesty the KING has been graciously pleased to appoint Sir HENRY MAY to be a Knight Grand Cross of the Most Distinguished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George. I attach an extract* from the Hansard report of a meeting of the Legisla- tive Council held on the 5th June at which a congratulatory resolution was passed. This high recognition of Sir HENRY MAY'S long and honourable career has been received with much satisfaction in the Colony.

    5. The sudden attack of illness which led to Sir HENRY MAY's resignation has evoked many expressions of the deepest sympathy, and I may say for myself that it was with profound regret that I received the news. The six years during which I worked under Sir HENRY MAY as Colonial Secretary covered a period of great developments in this Colony and my close association with him during the years of the war made me appre- ciate his high qualities as an Administrator.

COLONIAL SECRETARY'S DEPARTMENT.

No. 529.--The following telegram which has been received from the Secretary of State for the Colonies is published for general information:-

LONDON, 6th November, 1919.

I am commanded by His Majesty the KING to send out to you for immediate publi- cation the following message which is addressed to all the peoples of the Empire :

"To all my people. Tuesday next, November 11th, is the first anniversary of the Armistice which stayed the world-wide carnage of the four preced- ing years and marked the victory of Right and Freedom.

!

472

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, NOVEMBER 8, 1919.

I believe that my people in every part of the Empire fervently wish to per- petuate the memory of that great deliverance and of those who laid down their lives to achieve it.

To afford an opportunity for the universal expression of this feeling it is my desire and hope that at the hour when the Armistice came into force, the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, there may be for the brief space of two minutes a complete suspension of all our normal activities. During that time except in the rare cases where it may be impracticable, all work, all sound and all locomotion should cease so that in perfect still- ness the thoughts of everyone may be concentrated on reverent remem- brance of the glorious dead. No elaborate organisation appears to be necessary. At a given signal which can be easily arranged to suit the circumstances of each locality I believe that we shall all gladly inter- rupt our business and pleasure whatever it may be and unite in this simple service of silence and remembrance.

GEORGE R.I."

    This will be published in the Press here to-morrow morning and arrangements are being made for the observance of the two minutes silence at 11 o'clock next Tuesday.

    Trains will be stopped on the railways, traffic on the streets, ships at sea as far as possible and every effort will be made to get work suspended everywhere at schools, shops, mines and factories and to ensure complete silence.

    His Majesty hopes that you will arrange as far as possible for a similar observance. It is of course impracticable owing to distance that the ceremony should synchronise throughout the Empire.

It is therefore suggested that 11 a.m. local time should be adopted everywhere.

A similar message is being sent to India and to every Dominion and Colony in the Empire.

...

MILNER.

The signal in this Colony will be given by a gun fired on Murray Parade Ground at eleven o'clock.

    His Excellency the Governer trusts that the community will comply with His Majesty's wishes..

14th November, 1919.

War Medals.

I.

CLAUD SEVERN,

Colonial Secretary.

His Majesty the KING has been graciously pleased to signify his pleasure that the British War Medal which has been granted to His Majesty's Forces, be granted also to the British, Dominion, Colonial and Indian Mercantile Marine.

    In the United Kingdom the Medal, in Silver, will be given to those who can supply such evidence as may be approved by the Board of Trade of having served at sea for not less than six months between the 4th August, 1914, and 11th November, 1918, inclusive; and those entitled to receive it will include Licensed Pilots, Fishermen, and crews of Pilotage and Lighthouse Authorities' Vessels, and of Post Office Cable Ships.

In other parts of the Empire the qualifying service will be the same, but all details will be determined by the several Governments.

II.

His Majesty the KING has also been graciously pleased to signify his pleasure that a Mercantile Marine War Medal be granted to the persons specified in the previous para- graph, who are qualified for the British War Medal, and who, in addition, can supply such evidence as may be approved by the Authorities referred to in that paragraph of having served at sea on at least one voyage through a danger zone.

                                      For this purpose a voyage through a danger zone means:--

(a) A voyage on a ship which entered or cleared a United Kingdom port, or a

French port, or a Mediterranean port;

(b) Such other voyages in other parts of the world as shall be specified in a

further notice.

The Medal will be in bronze, and the riband will be green and red arranged verti- cally, with a narrow white line between them.

III.

The Authorities referred to in paragraphs I and II will determine whether any appli- cant is disqualified for the Medals by reason of misconduct during the war.

IV.

Officers, men and women referred to in this Announcement who, whilst serving at sea, were captured by the enemy or lost their lives through enemy action or were pre- cluded by disablement through enemy action from further service at sea, before being able to complete their qualifying service for one or both of the medals, will be deemed to have qualified.

V.

The medals earned by deceased officers, men and women, will be issued to their legatees or next-of-kin entitled to receive them.

VI.

Instructions as to the submission of claims and other particulars will shortly be

issued.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, NOVEMBER 14, 1919.

INSTRUCTIONS AS TO THE SUBMISSION OF CLAIMS, &c., IN THE UNITED KINGDOM.

(a.) All applications should be made on the forms which are provided at Mercantile Marine Offices and at the Offices of Pilotage and Lighthouse Authorities. If, however, an applicant is unable to attend at any such Office, a written request may be sent to the Marine Department, Board of Trade, London, for an application form.

(b.) Officers, men and women who have served during part of the war in the Royal Navy, R.N.R., or under special Naval Engagements (i.e., Form T 124 and its variants), in the Army, or in the Royal Air Force, have in many cases performed service during some other part of the War which would entitle them to the Mercantile Marine War Medal. Such officers, men and women will be awarded the Mercantile Marine War Medal if their claims are approved, apart from any further medal which they may be awarded under the regulations of the Admiralty, War Office, or Air Ministry.

(c.) Qualifying service will in all cases be service at sea, and not service in harbours, rivers, or other inland waters.

(d.) Legatees or next-of-kin of deceased officers, men and women, will not be entitled to participate in the preliminary distribution of medal ribands, but must await the distri- bution of the medals, to which the usual quantity of riband will be attached.

(e.) The Board of Trade will be the sole judge as to whether applicants are qualified, under the terms of the foregoing announcement, for any, and if so for which, of the medals referred to.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, NOVEMBER 28, 1919.

485

 Legislation will be introduced when Parliament reassembles in the autumn :- (a) For the protection of goods manufactured in Great Britain and Ireland against dumping by taking power to prevent the sale in this country of similar goods beneath their price in the country of origin ;

(b) to enable the Board of Trade to check any flood of imports (for instance, from Germany) that might arise from a collapse of exchange so disproportionate to costs of production in the country of origin as to enable sales to take place in this country at prices altogether below costs of production here;

(c) to deal with unstable "Key" industries in the following way:----

A limited number of unstable "key" industries will be scheduled, the products of which will be prohibited from importation into this country except on licence.

Pending legislation, a general licence under the Prohibition of Import Proclamations will be issued by the Board of Trade having effect as from the 1st September, 1919, and authorising the importation into the United Kingdom of all goods with the exception of those in the following list, which will be treated as unstable "key" industries:-

(1) All derivatives of coal tar generally known as intermediate products capable of being used or adapted for use as dyestuffs or of being modi- fied or further manufactured into dyestuffs. All direct cotton colours, all union colours, all acid colours, all chrome and mordant colours, all alizarine colours, all basic colours, all sulphide colours, all vat colours (including synthetic indigo), all oil, spirit and wax colours, all lake colours, and any other synthetic colours, dyes, stains, colour acids, colour lakes, leuco acids, leuco bases, whether in paste, powder, solution, or any other form.

(2)-(i) Synthetic drugs. (including antiseptics).

(ii) Synthetic perfumes and flavourings; synthetic photographic chemi- cals; synthetic tannins; esters and acid derivatives of aromatic hydro-carbons; alkaloids and their salts (except quinine); and the following organic chemicals:--Acetamide; acetic acid; acetic anhy- dride; acetyl chloride; camphor bromide, cinnamic acid and its salts; ethylene bromide; formamide; formic acid and its salts; gallic acid; lactic acid; and its salts; nuclein; paraldehyd; pyro- gallic acid; saccharin or other substances of like nature or use; salicin; thymol.

(iii) Analytical re-agents; and the following fine chemicals : --Barium compounds; cerium fluoride and fluorides of other rare earth metals; hydro-sulphites and allied bleaching compounds; hypo- phosphorus acids; iron and ammonium citrate; iron tartrate; molybdic acid and its salts; phosphorus oxides and halogen com- pounds; salts of per acids and artificial peroxides; silver nucleinate and proteinate; tungstic acid and its salts.

(3) Optical glass, including lenses, prisms and like optical devices. (4) Scientific glassware.

(5) Illuminating glassware.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, NOVEMBER 28, 1919.

    In addition to the above, in pursuance of the undertaking given by the President of the Board of Agriculture in the House of Lords on 19th March, 1919, the prohibition on the importation of hops will be continued for the present.

    It is not proposed to make any additions to the above list unless and until Parlia- ment so determine, with the possible exception that in the event of the contingency foreshadowed in paragraph (b) above arising it might be necessary to suspend tem- porarily all or any of the imports from the country affected by the collapse of exchange.

    The Board of Trade announce, in explanation of the above, that pending legislation a General Licence under the Prohibition of Import Proclamations is to be issued to cover all goods with the exception of those set out in the list of key industries. In the case of Kerosene and Benzine (including White Spirit), Gas Oil, and Fuel Oil, this general licence refers to total quantity of import, and does not affect the agreement entered into by the Government to limit the number of importing firms for the period of the existence of the Pool Board and nine months thereafter to those firms which co- operated with the Government to form the Pool Board as a result of which the community received material benefits. The termination of the war organisation of the Pool Board as from 31st January, 1919, was announced in the Press on 2nd January, 1919. The nine months period which has to elapse before other firms are allowed to import does not therefore expire until 31st October, 1919.

    Further, it should be noted that in accordance with the provisions of Article 295 of the Peace Treaty, which requires all the parties to the Treaty to adopt the International. Opium Convention, the importation of Opium and Cocaine, except under Home Office licence, remains prohibited.

(Board of Trade Journal, 28th August, 1919.)

Imperial Preference.

    Section 8 of the Finance Act, 1919, (which received the Royal Assent on 31st July), provides as follows:---

    "8.--(1) With a view to conferring a preference in the case of Empire products, the duties of customs on the goods specified in the Second Schedule to this Act (see below) shall on and after the dates provided for in that schedule, be charged at the reduced rates (hereinafter referred to as "preferential rates") shown in the second column of that schedule, where the goods are shown to the satisfaction of the Commissioners of Customs and Excise to have been consigned from and grown, produced or manufactured in the British Empire..

"For the purposes of this section:-:

"The British Empire' means any of His Majesty's dominions outside Great Britain and Ireland, and any territories under His Majesty's protection, and includes India:

"Provided that where any territory becomes a territory under His Majesty's pro- tection, or is a territory in respect of which a mandate of the League of Nations is exercised by the Government of any part of His Majesty's dominions, His Majesty may by Order-in-Council direct that that territory shall be included within the definition of the British Empire for the purposes of this section, and this section shall have effect accordingly.

    "Goods shall not be deemed to have been manufactured in the British Empire as aforesaid unless such proportion of their value as is prescribed by regulations made. by the Board of Trade is the result of labour within the British Empire.

66

(2) Where the Board of Trade is satisfied as respects any class of goods to which the preferential rates apply that those articles are to a considerable extent manufactured in the British Empire from material which is not wholly grown or produced in the Empire, the Board may by order direct that the preferential rate shall be charged only in respect of such proportion of those goods as corresponds to the proportion of dutiable material used in their manufacture which is shown to have been grown or produced in the Empire.

"

:

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, NOVEMBER 28, 1919.

"(3) Where goods are manufactured in a bonded factory in Great Britain or Ireland from dutiable material shown to the satisfaction of the Commissioners of Customs and Excise to have been consigned from and grown or produced in the British Empire, the duty on the manufactured goods shall, to the extent to which they are shown to have been manufactured out of such material, be charged at the preferential rate.

   "(4) Any Order-in-Council or regulations made under this section shall be laid be- fore each House of Parliament forthwith, and, if an address is presented to His Majesty by either House of Parliament within the next subsequent twenty-one days on which that House has sat next after the Order or the regulations are laid before it, praying that the Order or regulations be annulled, His Majesty in Council may annul the Order or re- gulations, and the Order or regulations shall thenceforth be void, but without prejudice to the validity of anything previously done thereunder."

488 THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, NOVEMBER 28, 1919.

not wholly grown or produced within the Empire, hereby order that the preferential rates of Customs duty shall, in the case of Refined Sugar, Molasses, and Extracts from Sugar, and Manufactured Tobacco, be charged only in respect of such proportion of those goods as corresponds to the proportion of dutiable material used in their manufacture which is shown to the satisfaction of the Commissioners of Customs and Excise to have been grown or produced in the Empire.

Proportion of Value Resulting from Labour within the British Empire. In pursuance of Section 8 of the Finance Act, 1919, the Board of Trade hereby make the following regulations:-

of purposes (1) Save as hereinafter provided, goods shall not be deemed for the

Section 8 of the Finance Act, 1919, to have been manufactured in the British Empire unless at least 25 per cent of their total value is the result of labour within the British Empire.

(2) In the case of those classes of those goods in respect of which an Order has been made by the Board of Trade under Section 8, Sub-Section (2) of the Finance Act, 1919, no part of the goods shall be deemed to have been manufactured in the British Empire unless at least 5 per cent of the total value of the goods is the result of labour within the British Empire. (3) Where a number of separate articles are included in one parcel or shipment, each and every article shall be considered separately for the purpose of calculating the proportion of value due to labour within the Empire. (4) For the purposes of these regulations the total value of an article shall be its cost to the manufacturer at the factory or works, and shall include the value of containers and other forms of interior packing ordinarily sold with the article when it is sold in retail, but shall not include the manufacturer's or exporter's profit or the cost of exterior packing, car- riage to port, and other charges incidental to the export of the goods subsequent to their manufacture.

(5) In calculating the proportion of value which is the result of labour within the British Empire, there may be included under the head of labour the cost to the manufacturer of any materials of purely Empire origin enter- ing into the composition of the article (including the interior packing specified in Regulation (4)) the cost of manufacture, including wages, proportion of fuel, supervision, and other factory expenses, and the cost of the labour of packing for retail sale."

7

A

The following may not be included in the proportion of value which is the result of Empire labour, namely, any materials or interior pack- ings not entirely of Empire origin, manufacturer's profit, or the profit or remuneration of any trader, agent, broker, or other person dealing in the article in its finished condition, the expenses of placing the goods in outside packages for export, and the cost of such packages, trans- portation charges, insurance, and any other charges for services after the goods leave the place of production or manufacture.

(6) Any question arising on the interpretation of these Regulations shall be

referred to the Board of Trade, whose decision shall be final.

(Board of Trade Journal, 14th August, 1919.)

Trading with late Enemy and Other Countries.

    The following notes on trading conditions as affected by the raising of the blockade, the authorisation of the resumption of trade with Germany and other countries, and the removal of United Kingdom import restrictions, are published by the Board of Trade for the information of British traders. These notes supersede those published in July last as Parliamentary Return "Cmd. 274".

    During the war it has been necessary to prohibit all trading with the enemy, but with the conclusion of peace with Germany the necessity for this prohibition has ceased. It may be expected that there will be a considerable demand in the late enemy countries

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, NOVEMBER 28, 1919. 489

for all kinds of goods; as this market is now open to all the world, it is no part of the policy of His Majesty's Government to discourage British traders from competing therein, and it is desirable that British traders should make every effort to secure a proper foot- ing in Central Europe.

1.-Germany.

Exports. Any goods may be sent to Germany without licence, except goods on Lists "A" and "B" of prohibited exports. Applications for export licences in respect of goods included in those lists should be addressed to the Export Licence Department, 1, Queen Anne's Gate Buildings, Westminster, S.W. 1. It is understood that at present the import of all goods into unoccupied Germany is subject to import licence, for which the German consignee has to make application to the competent authority in Berlin.

*

Imports. Any goods may be imported from Germany, and paid for, without licence, except goods whose importation from all foreign countries is prohibited. Import prohi- bitions now apply only to a small number of goods, a list of which will be found in the Board of Trade Journal of the 28th August, 1919.

Other transactions. Other transactions of a commercial or financial nature with firms in Germany are permissible without further licence, provided they do not involve any of the following matters, namely:-

(a) the payment of money arising out of pre-war transactions ;.

(b) the delivery of or dealing with property held in this country for persons in

Germany since before the outbreak of war;

(c) the transfer of securities by or on behalf of a person in Germany;

(d)

the allotment or transfer of securities issued by a company to or for the

benefit of a German subject;

(e) the transfer of any debt or other obligation due to a person in Germany.

It should, of course, be understood that, as regards the financing of transactions, traders must make the best arrangements they can, and, in case of uncertainty as to the best mode of procedure, they should consult their bankers.

2.--The Territories previously included in the Austro-Hungarian Dominions. The British regulations are the same as those set out above in the case of Germany, except that List "D" applies in the case of exports to Austria and Jugo-Slavia.

3.-Turkey and Bulgaria.

Except that List "D" of prohibited exports applies to Turkey, and Lists "D" and "E" to Bulgaria, the British regulations are the same as for Germany.

4.-Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Holland, and Switzerland.

It is no longer necessary to obtain certificates from Importing Associations in these countries, or to procure other forms of guarantee, or to consign goods to such Associations. Export licences, for which application should be made to the Export Licence Department at the address given above, are required only for goods on Lists "A" and "B" of prohibited exports.

5.-Poland, Finland, Esthonia, Lettland, Lithuania.

So far as British regulations are concerned, there are no special restrictions on trade with these countries, but as in the case of other foreign countries export licences are required for goods on Lists "A" and "B" and general prohibitions of import apply to these as to other countries.

Further information regarding the export of goods to the above and other countries. will be found in the "List of Export Prohibited Goods", which is published fortnightly by the Export Licence Department of the Board of Trade, 1, Queen Anne's Gate Buildings, Westminster, S. W. 1.

   Consular Certificates of Origin and Interest.-These certificates are no longer required for goods imported into this country.

DESPATCHES FROM THE SECRETARY OF STATE.

No. 574.

CIRCULAR.

DOWNING STREET,

25th October, 1919.

SIR,--With reference to my predecessor's Circular despatch of the 31st of January, 1917,* I have the honour to transmit for your information a copy of a letter from the War Office in regard to refunds being made to ex-Army officers and men who were entitled to repatriation overseas at the cost of Army funds, but who made their own arrangements for returning home and obtained passages at their own expense.

2. If there are any ex-soldiers in the territory under your government who made their own arrangements for return passages before the 1st of April last, after having unsuccessfully applied to the Repatriation Record Office at Winchester, or to some other Army Authority, the necessary applications will no doubt be submitted, accompanied by the information specified in the last paragraph of the War Office letter.

I have, &c.,

The Officer Administering the Government of

HONGKONG.

MILNER.

[Enclosure in Circular despatch of 25th October, 1919.]

WAR OFFICE,

LONDON, S.W. 1,

5th September, 1919.

    SIR,-I am commanded by the Army Council to refer to your letters of the 10th April, 1919, 20th June, 1919, and 15th August, 1919, regarding refunds to officers and men, entitled to repatriation overseas at the cost of Army Funds, who made their own arrangements and obtained passages at their own expense.

    As you are no doubt aware the demobilisation regulations were framed to allow those entitled to repatriation either to be kept on pay and be sent back at the earliest opportunity, or if they wished to defer passage for their own convenience to be demo- bilised in the United Kingdom and to apply for passage within 6 months of the date of demobilisation. In the latter case, no guarantee can be given that passage can be given at the time when the application is made, though whatever is possible is done to meet the applicant's convenience.

    By the above arrangements it was hoped to meet the requirements of all classes. It would have been administratively impossible to have allowed each man to make his own arrangements and to refund the cost subsequently, and the Council are not prepared to make a general departure from the Demobilisation Regulations on this point.

    It is, however, realised that in the first period of demobilisation the machinery at the Repatriation Offices at Winchester may not have been working quite smoothly, owing partly to misunderstanding on the part of some of those due for repatriation, and partly to the very heavy pressure of work at Winchester. The Council have accordingly decided that in cases in which an officer or man made his own arrangements (after applying to Winchester) owing to a mistake made by the Winchester authorities, a relaxation of the general rule may be made, and a refund granted on the basis of a round sum representing broadly what it would have cost Army Funds, had the repatriation been carried out through the usual channel. At present each case will be considered on its merits by the Inter-Departmental Repatriation Committee on which the Treasury is represented.

* Published in the Gazette of the 30th March, 1917, as Notification No. 117.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 19, 1919. 513

  Since the machinery at the Repatriation Record Office, Winchester, was running quite smoothly by the 1st April last, no refund will be given in those cases in which men made their own arrangements to proceed after that date.

الجسم

  Applications for refund under the terms of thi letter should be submitted through the Officer in Charge Repatriation Records, Morn Hill Camp, Winchester, to the War Office (S.R.1.a Repatriation) accompanied by a statement showing the circumstances. under which the applicant proceeded instead of waiting for passage in the usual way, the ship by which he sailed, the date of embarkation and disembarkation, and proof of payment of passage: It must be clearly shown in all cases whether or not application for passage was made to the Repatriation Record Office, Winchester, or to any other Army authority and if so, with what result.

     By His Excellency Sir REGINALD EDWARD STUBBS 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 twelfth section of the Volunteer Ordinance 1893 it is enacted that the Governor may in case of great national emergency or in case of actual or apprehended invasion of or attack on the Colony by proclamation call out any Volunteer Corps for actual military service and whereas it is also enacted by the aforesaid section that the period of such service shall continue so long as the Governor in Council shall consider necessary and shall end only by order of the Governor:

And whereas the Hongkong Volunteer Corps was called out for actual military service by such proclamation on the 5th day of August 1914:

And whereas it appears to me by and with the advice of the Executive Council of this Colony that it is unnecessary that the period of such service should continue any longer:

Now Therefore I Sir REGINALD EDWARD STUBBS 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 do hereby order that the period of such service shall come to an end from and after the 31st day of December 1919.

Whereas by the fifteenth section of the Volunteer Reserve Ordinance 1910 it is enacted that the Governor may by proclamation whenever it appears to him advisable to do so by reason of war cause all or any members of the Volunteer Reserve to be enrolled as members of the Volunteer Force and that all the provisions of the Volunteer Ordinance 1893 shall in so far as they are applicable extend and apply to every such member on being so enrolled to all intents and purposes as if such members had signed the engagement and taken the oath under the said Volunteer Ordinance and that every

member so enrolled shall remain and continue subject to the provisions of the said Volunteer Ordinance and shall be entitled to the benefits thereof until the Governor shall by proclamation cancel such enrolment whereupon all members so enrolled shall again become subject to the Volunteer Reserve Ordinance 1910 as members of the Volunteer Reserve:

And whereas all the members of the Volunteer Reserve were so enrolled by pro- clamation on the 6th day of August 1914:

And whereas it appears to me that the necessity for such enrolment has ceased:

Now Therefore I Sir REGINALD EDWARD STUBBS 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 do hereby cancel the said enrolment as from and after the 31st day of December 1919.
