PRESENT,

And whereas a Statute 4 & 5 Geo. V, c. 50, intituled "An Act to make such am end- ments of the law relating to Merchant Shipping as are necessary or expedient to give effect to an International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea" (being the Conven- tion above referred to) was passed on the 10th day of August, 1914, the short title of which is "The Merchant Shipping (Convention) Act, 1914":

And whereas by Section 29, Sub-section 5, of the said Act it was provided as follows:-

"This Act shall come into operation on the 1st day of July, 1915: "Provided that His Majesty may, by Order in Council, from time to time post- pone the coming into operation of this Act for such period, not exceeding on any occasion of postponement one year, as may be specified in the

Order":

And whereas by divers Orders in Council the coming into operation of the said Act has been from time to time postponed, and now stands postponed, by virtue of an Order in Council of the 31st day of May, 1923, until the 1st day of January, 1924 :

And whereas His Majesty deems it expedient that the provisions of the said Act should be further postponed:

Now, therefore, His Majesty, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, in pur- suance of the powers vested in Him by the above-recited provision and of all other powers Him thereunto enabling, doth order, and it is hereoy ordered, that the provisions of the Merchant Shipping (Convention) Act, 1914, shall be postponed from coming into operation until the 1st day of July, 1924.

FINDING.

 We find that the British S. S. Mary Horlock Official Number 131,916 of Harwich, registered tonnage 3249 of whom the Master was Robert Charles Hill, Extra Master 036,616 Sunderland sailed from Tacoma on the 20th December, 1923 bound for Yokohama with a full cargo, including deck cargo, of timber. The ship encountered persistent gales, and rough seas and at 0.30 a.m. on the 26th January during a strong gale lurched heavily to Port causing the cargo on the after deck to shift, damaging the after bulwarks and giving the vessel a heavy list to Port. The ship began to make water in No. 3 hold and continued to list to Port. Pumps were immediately started and an attempt was made to jettison the cargo, when at 10 a.m. ship still making water and the list increas- ing dangerously the Master decided to abandon the ship. The United States S.S. Presi-

dent Taft was communicated with by Wireless Telegraphy and arrived at 3 p.m. inlets were opened to the sea with a view to hastening the sinking of the ship. At 6.30 p.m. on January 26th the S. S Mary Horlock was abandoned in Lat. 32° 09' N. Long. 153° 46′ E. The crew in the Mary Horlock, boat were transferred to the S. S. President Taft. The S. S. Mary Horlock when last seen had a list of 40° to Port and was down by the stern.

That upon the evidence given we find the ship was well found, sufficiently manned and seaworthy at the time of her departure that she was not overloaded; her cargo was well and properly stowed.

  We find that the abandonment of the S.S. Mary Horlock was due to the shifting of her deck cargo, through stress of weather, damaging the ship to such an extent as to cause a leak and thereby a dangerously increasing list.

  We consider that the Master was justified in abandoning the Mary Horlock and scuttling the vessel and we commend Captain Hill and his crew for their seamanship in launching the boat and transferring the crew without accident, under such difficult conditions.

  The Court desires to direct the attention of the Board of Trade to the prompt arrival of the U. S. S.S. President Taft, to the volunteer boats' crew who effected the final rescue which was made possible by the free use of oil.

  Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hongkong, this 16th day of February, 1924.

With a view to check the breeding of mosquitoes, will the Government pass a regulation making it compulsory to cut off all bamboo scaffolding imme- diately above the joint, so as to prevent a receptacle for standing water from being created?

to which the following is the reply:-

It is being suggested to the Sanitary Board that a by-law should be passed under the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance prohibiting the use of bamboo scaffolding in which there is any receptacle which would retain water. It is a simple matter to fill up any hollow part of a bamboo with cement or other suitable material so that it is not necessary to require that the bamboos should be cut exactly at the joint.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, MARCH 28, 1924.

No. 174. The Honourable Mr. H. E. POLLOCK, K.C., has given notice of the following questions :-

(i.) Will the Government state what their policy is in regard to the future running of Bus Services in Kowloon, and in particular whether they intend to adopt the policy of inaugurating a regular service in particular areas and routes with a standard scale of fares and schedule time table? (ii.) Will the Government, in connection with the above matter, consider the advisability of stipulating for the chassis and tyres of the Buses to be of British manufacture and for the bodies to be of approved design? (iii.) In connection with the above Question (i), is there anything in the permits or licences given to parties running the present Bus Service to prevent the Government from making such terms as they may think fit with other persons for the running of regular Bus Service as suggested in Question (i)?

to which the following are the replies:

(i.) As soon as circumstances permit it is the intention of the Government to grant exclusive rights in respect of omnibus services in the Kowloon Peninsula for such areas and on such routes as may be deemed desirable.

(ii.) The reply is in the affirmative.

(iii.) The licences at present in force in no way prevent the Government from taking the action indicated in the reply to the first question. As soon as conditions justify the granting of exclusive rights in any area the Government will decline to renew any existing licence in respect of that area. It is desirable that this should be clearly understood by all concerned.

Nɔ. 212.-The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 9th, 10th and 15th days of April, 1924, to enquire into the circumstances attending the stranding of the British River S.S. Heungshan, is published for general information.

17th April, 1924.

CLAUD SEVERN,

Colonial Secretary.

FINDING.

We find that the British River S.S. Heungshan, Official No. 95,855 of Hongkong, of which Reginald D. Thomas (Certificate of Competency No. 1010 Hongkong) was Master, left Hongkong at 10 p.m. on February 28th, 1924, with cargo, mails, 600 passen- gers and a crew of 80 bound for Canton. At 4.51 a.m. on February 29th, 1924, the ship struck Junk Rock and was subsequently beached on the North Bank of the River where she now lies a total loss.

The ship proceeded by the usual routes experiencing intermittent fog and passed through the Collison Reach Barrier at 4.32 a.m. on February 29th. The weather was then foggy with a visibility of about quarter of a mile. The banks of the river could not be clearly seen and when off Tai Shek Tau we find that the position of the ship was not known to any degree of accuracy. The lead was not used. This, we consider, was wrong, as soundings would have materially helped to define the ship's position. The ship continued at slow speed, and, when known to be off the village of Sun Chu, at a distance of less than quarter of a mile from the Junk Rock, the position of the ship still not being accurately known and the light on Junk Rock Buoy not having been seen, we consider the Master should have acted immediately, stopped the ship and ascertained his position with regard to this known danger. His failure to do this, is, in our opinion, the cause of the accident and in this we find the master guilty of a wrongful act. A member of the crew, an unlicensed person, was acting as Pilot and the Court are of the opinion. that he can not in any way be held to blame for the accident.

Taking into consideration the Master's long and good record: that after the ship struck everything was done by him in a Seamanlike Manner, and the transfer of the passengers and crew effected without accident or panic, the Court adjudge the Master, R. D. Thomas, to be severely censured.

Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hongkong, this 15th day of April, 1924.

AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNITED KINGDOM AND JAPAN FOR THE MUTUAL RECOGNITION OF LOADLINE CERTIFICATES.

Signed at London, January 21, 1924.

 His Britannic Majesty's Government and the Government of His Majesty the Emperor of Japan, being desirous of concluding an Agreement for the mutual recogni- tion of loadline certificates, have agreed as follows:-

ARTICLE 1.

 The Japanese Government, deeming that, with regard to the loadline, the existing laws and regulations of certain British territories agree in substance with those of Japan, agree that no British ship possessing the loadline certificate issued in accordance with the law in force in any British territory coming within the scope of this Agreement, by the competent authorities of the Government of that territory or by a corporation or association for the survey and registry of shipping recognised by the same Government, and the corresponding loadline mark, in so far as the same ship observes within ports situated in any Japanese territory coming within the scope of this Agreement the laws and regulations relating to the loadline, in accordance with which the certificate was issued, shall be liable to detention or penalty under the laws and regulations of that territory. His Britannic Majesty's Government similarly agree that no Japanese ship possessing the loadline certificate issued in accordance with the law in force in any Japanese territory coming within the scope of this Agreement by the competent authori- ties of the Government of that territory, or by a corporation or association for the survey and registry of shipping recognised by the same Government, and the corresponding load- line mark, in so far as the same ship observes within ports situated in any British territory coming within the scope of this Agreement the laws and regulations relating to the load- line in accordance with which the certificate was issued, shall be liable to detention or penalty under the laws and regulations of that territory.

ARTICLE 2.

 The Japanese territory, coming within the scope of this Agreement, shall be held to consist of Japan Proper and all Japanese possessions and all territories under Japanese administration, except the mandated territories, which have or shall have loadline regula- tions in force recognised by the Japanese Government as equivalent to those applicable in Japan Proper.

 The British territory, coming within the scope of this Agreement, shall be held to consist of the United Kingdom, India and those Colonies which have or shall have load- line regulations in force recognised by an Order of His Majesty in Council as equivalent to those applicable in the United Kingdom; but shall not be held to include the Domin- ion of Canada, the Commonwealth of Australia (including Papua and Norfolk Island), the Dominion of New Zealand, the Union of South Africa, the Irish Free State, New- foundland, the Protected States, the Protectorates and the mandated territories.

In witness whereof the Undersigned, duly authorised to this effect, have signed the present Agreement and have affixed thereto their seals.

HARBOUR MASTER'S DEPARTMENT.

Protection of Life and Property in the Harbour during Typhoon Weather.

1. When there are immediate prospects of the weather conditions becoming so bad as to place the Native Craft in the Harbour in danger of being unable to make shelter on their own account, a Red Ensign will be hoisted at Harbour Office indicating that two Naval Tugs will be available to assist to tow such craft to shelter.

2. These Naval Tugs will fly the Red Ensign at the masthead and will proceed down to the Central and Southern Fairways to the limit of the shipping, and all mercantile or private craft which desire to avail themselves of a tow to shelter should be ready with their ropes to be taken in tow as the Tugs return.

3. All craft will be towed towards Yaumati Refuge.

    4. If the wind is blowing from the Eastward, assistance to the shipping at the Western end of the Harbour will be rendered first.

5. Native Craft are not to depend on these Tugs entirely but should endeavour to make

ake shelter on their own account, as early as possible.

6. The Naval Tugs will be used only in emergency, during the hours of daylight, and on no account will they be used for this work after dark.

7. No responsibility for damage done during towage will be taken by the Govern- ment or by the Naval Authorities.

8. Towing charges will be made in accordance with the following scale :---

1.

While Red Signals

are hoisted 1/20 of

Annual Licence Fee.

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, namely, at 0300, 0600, 0900 and 2200 G.M.T., 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 aneroid is read.

  4. It is very important that a few readings (at least four) of the barometer used for the wireless messages should be taken in Hongkong and forwarded to the Observatory, for comparison with the Obervatory Standard. It is also very important that the readings in the radio messages should be exactly as read off, without any correction whatever, except in the case of ships which have not sent comparison observations to the Observatory. Such ships should correct the readings of mercurial barometers for index error, and reduce them to 32° Fahrenheit, sea level, and gravity at 45° latitude; using the best index error avail- able and adding the word "corrected". If an aneroid barometer is used, and no com- parison observations have been sent to the Observatory, the readings should be corrected for index error and reduced to sea level.

Details of the arrangements are given hereunder :-

1. A summary of meteorological conditions at 2200 G. M. T., and weather forecasts based thereon, will be broadcast by Cape d'Aguilar at 0500 G. M. T. and repeated at 0900 G. M. T., on a 600 metre wave. A second suminary and forecast, based on observations at 0600 G. M. T., will be broadcast at 1200 G. M. T.

2. Storm warnings are broadcast at about 0400 G. M. T. and repeated every two

hours until 1600 G. M. T. or until the next warning is issued.

3. When within range of Cape d'Aguilar the Captain will arrange for observations to be made at 0300, 0600, 0900 and 2200 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, except as mentioned

in paragraph 4 of the Notice to Mariners overleaf).

(c.) Thermometer reading.

(d.) Wind direction and force.

(e.) State of weather (in plain language) fine meaning 0 to 3 of cloud;

fair 4 to 6 of cloud; cloudy 7 or 8; overcast 9 or 10.

In no circumstances will the operator write these messages.

4. Reports for transmission from the ship will be addressed to "Royal Observatory, 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. 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 Stonecutters at the even seconds between 0156 and 0200 G. M. T., and between 1256 and 1300 G. M. T. The 2nd, 28th, 50th, 52nd, and 54th seconds are omitted for the purpose of identifying the signals.

The Time Signals are preceded by the following warning signals from Stonecutters

between 0154 and 0155 G. M. T. and between 1254 and 1255 G. M. T.

CQ DE

BXY HK TIME WAIT

Both warning and Time Signals are sent out on a wave length of 2,000 metres from a 30 kw tonic train (I. C. W.). The Time Signals are dots of about 0.2 second duration. Radiotelegraphic land and ship stations within range of Stonecutters are required to keep silent between 0154 and 0200 G. M. T. and between 1254 and 1300 G. M. T. in accordance with Article 45, paragraph 3 of the Service Regulations appended to the International Rediotelegraph Convention of 1912.

AT THE COURT AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE,

THE 21ST DAY OF MARCH, 1924.

PRESENT,

THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY IN COUNCIL.

EREAS by Section 445 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, it is enacted

     that where the Board of Trade certify that the laws and regulations for the time being in force in any foreign country and relating to overloading and improper loading are equally effective with the provisions of that Act relating thereto, His Majesty in Council may direct that on proof of a ship of that country having complied with those laws and regulations she shall not, when in a port of the United Kingdom, be liable to detention for non-compliance with the said provisions of that Act, nor shall there arise any liability to any fine or penalty which would otherwise arise for non-compliance with those provisions:

   And whereas by Section 1 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1906, provision, as is more particularly therein mentioned, is made for applying to foreign ships while they are within any port in the United Kingdom certain sections of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, which relate to loadline without prejudice to any direction of His Majesty in Council given under the said Section 445 of the last-mentioned Act:

And whereas the Board of Trade have certified that certain statutory regulations which have been approved by the Japanese Government relating to overloading, so far as regards the assignment of loadline to Japanese ships, are equally effective with the corresponding regulations in force in this country respecting the assignment of loadlines to British Merchant ships:

Now, therefore, His Majesty in Council doth direct that on proof that Japanese ships have complied with the aforesaid Japanese regulations, such ships shall not, when in ports of the United Kingdom, be liable to detention for non-compliance with the pro- visions of the Merchant Shipping Acts relating to overloading, nor shall there arise any liability to any fine or penalty which would otherwise arise for non-compliance with those provisions.

  At 0.30 a.m. on 14th June, ship was steering on N. 56° E. (true) course when bear- ings of Gap Rock Light and Great Ladrone Island were taken, placing the ship two (2) miles South of the latter. At 0.55 a.m. heavy rain set in, the course was altered to N. 70° E. (true) and speed reduced to 8 knots. At 3.10 a.m. land was sighted on the Port beam, helm was put hard a' port; at 3.14 a.m. land was sighted on the starboard beam, engines were put full speed astern and at 3.17 a.m. ship struck the West side of Hong- kong Chau. -

  The Court consider that the ship's position at 0.30 a.m. was not known to any -degree of accuracy as only two bearings were taken with an angle of 150° between them and from this doubtful position we are of opinion that the Master navigated his ship with insufficient and unseamanlike care in that he neglected in setting his course to allow for the set of the tide, but taking into consideration that after the ship struck, every- thing was done by the Master in a seamanlike manner for the safety of the ship, her passengers, and crew and eventually the ship floated off and made Hongkong Harbour under her own steam, the Court adjudge the Master, David Thomas, to be severely censured,

  And whereas I am satisfied that the laws and regulations of the Dominion of New Zealand and of the British Possession of Hongkong, relating to the fixing, marking and certifying of load-lines on ships belonging to those countries respectively are as effective as the provisions of Part IV of the Navigation Act 1912-1920 relating to the same subject-

matter:

Now therefore I, HENRY WILLIAM, Baron FORSTER, the Governor-General aforesaid, acting with the advice of the Federal Executive Council, do hereby direct that, on proof that a ship registered in either of those countries has complied with the law of that country relating to the fixing, marking and certifying of load-lines, she shall not be required to comply with any of the provisions (Excepting only the proviso to sub-section (3) of section 220) of Part IV of the Navigation Act relating to the same subject-matter.

   REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE.-The Colonial Secretary laid on the table the Report of the Finance Committee (No. 5), dated the 22nd May, 1924, and moved its adoption.

The Colonial Treasurer seconded.

Question-put and agreed to.

   RESOLUTION. Mr. HOLYOAK addressed the Council and moved the following resolu- tion, notice of which has previously been given :---

That the following resolution be forwarded to the Secretary of State :-

66

That having regard to the announcement by the Press that an Advisory Body" has been appointed by the Secretary of State for the Colonies to advise and enquire into the "Maisons tolérées" and Social Hygiene" in Hongkong amongst other places, the Unofficial Members of this Council welcome any enquiry which has the object of improving the conditions of life in and upholding the good name of the British Empire and Colonial Possessions, but resent the fact that the inclusion of Hongkong in this enquiry should have resulted from malicious, misleading and exaggerated representations to the Govern- ment which have been widely circulated in England for some time past.

Mr. BIRD, Mr. KOTEWALL, Mr. CHAU SIU-KI, Mr. ALABASTER and His Excellency the Governor also addressed the Council.

Question-put and agreed to.

Mr. KOTEWALL, with the permission of His Excellency the Governor moved the following Resolution :-

That this Council approves of the grant of the sum of Fifty thousand Dollars for the relief

of the distress caused by the recent floods in the Province of Kwangtung.

Mr. HOLYOAK seconded.

Mr. CHAU SIU-KI and His Excellency the Governor addressed the Council. Question-put and agreed to.

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

1. Will the Government state :-

(a) What progress has been made with the structure of the Sai Ying Pun School ? (b) What is the period covered by the building contract?

(c) Is there a "Penalty Clause" for late completion, and if so, to what extent ? (d) When does the Government anticipate that this School will be opened, and having regard to the pledges given by the Government that this work should be accelerated, how is it that progress, so far, has been slow?

2. Will the Government state :-

(a) How many of the new first class Typhoon Harbour Moorings are now available

for service?

(b) When does the Government expect that the whole number will be placed and ready

for use in the Harbour?

3. When does the Government expect to open "Statue Pier" and Landing Stage to public ser- vice, and what is the reason for the prolonged delay in the completion of this very neces- sary work?

4. When does the Government anticipate the completion of the new "Fire Brigade" Station, upon which work appears to have come to a standstill for a considerable time past, and what is the reason for this?

5. Will the Government lay upon the table "Monthly Progress Reports" in connection with all

the above Public Works?

The Colonial Secretary replied.

328 THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, AUGUST 15, 1924.

QUESTIONS.-Mr. BIRD, pursuant to notice, asked the following question :-

In view of the widespread want of confidence in the purity of the water supply of the Colony,

will the Government gire reassuring information on the following points? :-

1. How does the purity of the water compare with that of London (or any large British town)

and what is the exact comparison from a bacteriological and clinical point of view?

2. Is the water analysed chemically and examined bacteriologically at regular intervals at the

following points?

(1) Nullahs entering reservoirs.

(2) Reservoirs.

(3) Filter beds.

(4) Actual tap supply.

If so could the exact results be stated for the water supplied from Pokfulum Reservoir during the last few months? Is it a fact that the water from Pokfulum Reservoir is used at such a rate that it is not stored for a proper length of time? •

3. Is there any question whatever of the filter beds being overworked in order to cope with

the amount of water required?

4. If the filter beds are overworked or are not supplying a really high quality water, is it not

possible to use some more efficient methods of filtration?

5. If filter beds are working efficiently what is the reason of

(1) the present brown coloured water supplied from taps?

(2) the addition of chloride of lime?

6. Is there any necessity to boil and filter the water supplied from our taps? If so why?

7. What arrangements are made for the correct addition of chloride of lime, and is it satisfac-

tory when the water tastes of chlorine ?

N. 221 discountenanced attempts on the part of Colonial officials to seek the influence of Mem- bers of Parliament and others in this country as a means of bringing their services to the notice of the Secretary of State with a view to consideration for promotion.

2. Lord Harcourt pointed out that arrangements were in existence in the Colonial Office which ensured due consideration of the claims of all suitable officers on the occurrence of vacancies; and observed that the attempts which had been inade to obtain promotion by irregular means had not been of advantage to the officers concerned.

3. From recent correspondence which has reached me I have formed the opinion either that the warning issued by Lord Harcourt's directions in not now generally known, or that the grave view of the practice taken by the Secretary of State is insufficiently realized. I have to request, therefore, that steps may be taken, by the publication of this despatch in the Gazette and by any other means available, to warn public officers that a proceeding such as that which has been deprecated will serve no useful purpose and, on the other hand, may actually be detrimental to the interests of those concerned.

The Officer Administering the Government of

I have, etc.,

  No. 564.-The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 3rd day of October, 1924, to enquire into the circumstances attending the total loss of the British Steamship Tin Sing, is published for general information.

FINDING.

We find that the British S.S. Tin Sing (Official No. 123099 Registered at Hong- kong) of which Mr. David Morgan (Certificate of Competency No. 582 of Victoria, Australia) was Master left Wu Chau at 4 p.m. on 26th September, 1924, bound for Hongkong. Tin Sing arrived at Dosing at 6.15 p.m. and left at 6.30 p.m.

Tin Sing struck the rocks on the North side of the river just below Ha Lok at 7.10 p.m. We find that the Master after his arrival on the bridge did everything within his power to avert disaster and that he did everything within his power for the safety of passengers crew and cargo after the disaster. We find that the Port Engine was put to "full ahead" and actually did go full ahead and was later put full astern. We find that the Chief Officer carried out his duty in pointing out to the Pilot that the ship was out of position.

We find that the cause of the casualty is due to the incompetence of Ng Ki, the No. 2 Pilot and, blame is attributable to the owners, the Luen Mow S. S. Co. in that they neglected to ascertain whether Ng Ki was a competent Pilot before engaging him but relied solely on the advice of Chan Ki, the No. 1 Pilot. The Court adjudge the Master, Mr. David Morgan and the Chief Officer Mr. Patrick Scully to be exonerated from all blame.

  Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hongkong, this 3rd day of October, 1924.

No. 565.- The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 8th day of October, 1924, to enquire into the circumstances attending the stranding of the British Steamship Tecumseh, is published for general information.

FINDING.

We find that the Steamship Tecumseh (Official No. 135829 of Hongkong) of which Mr. Joseph Errett (Certificate of Competency No. 009177 of Dublin) was Master struck We the Cust Rock in the Harbour of Hongkong on September 11th, 1924, at 6.57 a.m. find that the grounding was due to the Cust Rock Buoy being obscured at the time by junks and sampans. We consider that the Master Mr. Joseph Errett navigated his ship in a seaman like manner and with proper caution but that he was guilty of an error in judgment not amounting to culpability in that he did not immediately anchor on seeing the derricks of the Hongkong and Whampoa Dockyard on his Starboard Beam.

DESPATCHES FROM THE SECRETARY OF STATE.

No. 583.

CIRCULAR.

DOWNING STREET,

6th September, 1924.

SIR, I have the honour to transmit to you, for your information, Executive Order. the accompanying copies of an Executive Order made by the President of the United States of America on the 14th of June last, relating to documents required of aliens entering the United States, and a Presi- dential Proclamation of the 30th of June last, setting out the quota of immigrants who may be admitted to the United States during the fiscal year 1924-25 in pursuance of the United States Immigration Act of May 6th, 1924.

Proclamation.

I have, etc.,

(for the Secretary of State)

The Officer Administering the Government of

HONGKONG.

ARNOLD.

[Enclosure 1 in Circular despatch of 6th September, 1924].

EXECUTIVE ORDER

DOCUMENTS REQUIRED OF ALIENS ENTERING THE UNITED STATES

 By virtue of the authority vested in me by the Act of Congress approved May 22, 1918,. entitled, "An Act to Prevent in Time of War Departure from and Entry into the United States Contrary to the Public Safety," as extended by the Act of Congress of March 2,.1921, entitled, "An Act making appropriations for the Diplomatic and Consular Service for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1922," and with reference to the Act of Congress of May 26, 1924, known as the "Immigration Act of 1924," I hereby prescribe the following regulations governing the entry of aliens into the United States:

I

:

IMMIGRANTS :

They must present immigration visas, quota or nonquota, in accordance with the requirements of the Immigration Act of 1924, except-

 (1) Children born subsequent to the issuance of the immigration visa of the accompanying parent. (Sec. 13 (a) (1), Immigration Act of 1924.) Such children are not required to present documents of any kind;

(2) Aliens who have previously been admitted legally into the United States, have departed therefrom, and have returned within six months. Of this class--

(a) Those who have not proceeded to countries other than Canada, Newfound- land, St. Pierre, Miquelon, Bermuda, Mexico, and Islands included in the Bahama and Greater Antilles groups, are not required to present documents of any kind.

(b) Those who have proceeded to countries other than those named in (a) may present, in lieu of immigration visas, permits to reenter, issued under the provision of Section 10 of the Act of 1924.

.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, OCTOBER 24, 1924.

II

529

NON-IMMIGRANTS:

With the exceptions hereinafter specified, they must present passports or official documents in the nature of passports issued by the governments of the countries to which they owe allegiance, duly visaed by consular officers of the United States;

Exceptions:

(1) Persons in transit through the United States to a foreign destination. They may present transit certificates according to regulations prescribed by the Secretary of State.

  (2) Aliens who are passengers on vessels bound for foreign ports and touching at ports of the United States. They may land temporarily, under regulations prescribed by the Department of Labor, without documents of any kind.

(3) Wives and children under sixteen years of age accompanying their husbands or parents. They are not required to present separate passports if they are mentioned in the passports of their husbands or parents and their photographs are attached thereto.

  (4) Citizens of St. Pierre and Miquelon and French citizens domiciled therein; citizens of Canada, Newfoundland, Bermuda, the Bahamas, and British possessions in the Greater Antilles, and British subjects domiciled therein; citizens of Mexico, Cuba, Haiti, San Domingo. Such persons may enter the United States temporarily from any of the countries named in this paragraph, or pass in transit through the United States from any such country to any other such country, without documents of any kind.

  (5) Seamen. Masters of vessels of all nationalities sailing for a port of the United States must submit for visa a list of all the alien members of the vessel's crew to the American consular officer at the port from which the vessel commences its voyage. If there is no American consular officer stationed at that port, the crew list should be submitted at the first port of call (if the vessel touches at any other port) where an American consular officer is located. This does not refer to consular agents, who are not authorized to visa crew lists.

  When a vessel sails from a port where no American Consul is stationed, but which is within a few hours reach by mail of an American Consulate, so that unreasonable delay and serious loss would not result from referring the crew list to such Consulate, it should be referred thereto for visa.

  If an alien seaman whose name is not included in a visaed crew list arrives at a port of the United States he shall not be allowed to land except upon the permission of the Secretary of State.

  (6) Aliens making round-trip cruises from American ports without transhipment from the original vessel to another one while en route, provided the original contract for passage calls for transportation from an American port to the ports included in the cruise, and return to either the original or another American port, require no visas for reentry into the United States.

  (7) Aliens of no nationality, and those who, when they apply for visas, are outside of the territories of the countries to which they owe allegiance and who, for any reason, are unable to obtain passports or documents in the nature of passports issued by the governments of such countries, and aliens bearing passports issued by governments not recognized by the United States.

[Enclosure 2 in Circular despatch of 6th September, 1924.]

[ IMMIGRATION QUOTAS:]

A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS it is provided in the Act of Congress approved May 26, 1924, entitled

     An Act to limit the immigration of aliens into the United States, and for other purposes" that--

66

The annual quota of any nationality shall be two per centum of the number of foreign-born individuals of such nationality resident in continental United States as determined by the United States census of 1890, but the minimum quota of any nationality'shall be 100". (Sec. 11 (a);

"For the purposes of this Act nationality shall be determined by country of

birth** (Sec. 12 (a);

"The Secretary of State, the Secretary of Commerce, and the Secretary of Labor, jointly, shall, as soon as feasible after the enactment of this Act, prepare a statement showing the number of individuals of the various nationalities resident in continental United States as determined by the United States census of 1890, which statement shall be the population basis for the purposes of subdivision (a) of section 11" (Sec. 12 (b); Such officials shall, jointly, report annually to the President the quota of each nationality under subdivision (a) of section 11, together with the state- ments, estimates, and revisions provided for in this section. The President shall proclaim and make known the quotas so reported." (Sec. 12 (e).

66

 AND whereas satisfactory evidence has been presented to me that the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Commerce, and the Secretary of Labor, pursuant to the authority conferred upon them in the Act. of Congress approved May 26, 1924, have made the statement and the quotas therein provided,

 Now, therefore, I, Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States of America, acting under and by virtue of the power in me vested by the aforesaid Act of Congress, do hereby proclaim and make known that on and after July 1, 1924, and throughout the fiscal year 1924-1925, the quota of each nationality provided in the said Act shall be as follows:

*For each of the countries indicated by an asterisk (*) is established a nominal quota accord- ing to the minimum fixed by law. These nominal quotas, as in the case of all quotas hereby established, are available only for persons born within the respective countries who are eligible to citizenship in the United States and admissible under the immigration laws of the United States.

1.-(a) Persons born in the portions of Persia, Russia, or the Arabian peninsula situated within the Barred Zone, and who are admissible under the immigration laws of the United States as quota immigrants, will be charged to the quotas of these coun- tries; and (b) persons born in the colonies, dependencies, or protectorates, of portions thereof, within the Barred Zone, of France, Great Britain, the Netherlands, or Portugal, who are admissible under the immigration laws of the United States as quota immigrants, will be charged to the quota of the country to which such colony or dependency belongs or by which it is administered as a protectorate.

2. The quota-area denominated "Arabian peninsula" consists of all territory except Muscat and Aden, situated in the, portion of that peninsula and adjacent islands, to the southeast of Iraq, of Palestine with Trans-Jordan, and of Egypt.

3. Quota immigrants born in the British self-governing dominions or in the Empire of India, will be charged to the appropriate quota rather than to that of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. There are no quota restrictions for Canada and Newfoundland.

4. As shown on Chart No. 1262a, Hydrographic office, United States Navy Department.

5. Quota immigrants eligible to citizenship in the United States, born in a colony, dependency, or protectorate of any country to which a quota applies will be charged to the quota of that country.

6. In contrast with the law of 1921, the Immigration Act of 1924 provides that persons born in the colonies or dependencies of European countries situated in Central America, South America, or the islands adjacent to the American continents (except Newfoundland and islands pertaining to Newfoundland, Labrador and Canada), will be charged to the quota of the country to which such colony or dependency belongs.

GENERAL NOTE. The immigration quotas assigned to the various countries and quota-areas should not be regarded as having any political significance whatever, or as involving recognition of new governments, or of new boundaries, or of transfers of territory except as the United States Government has already made such recognition in a formal and official manner.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
