FINDING.

  We find that the British S.S. Anking Official No. 148563 of London of which Mr. Robert Ritchie (Certificate of Competency as Extra Master No. 031684 of Dundee) was Master came into collision in dense fog with the British S.S. Tanda No. 136239 of Glas- gow of which Mr. Elias Tomlin Pilcher (Certificate of Competency as Extra Master No. 031625 of London) was Master in an approximate position Lat. 22°26′ N., Long. 115°.13' E. at 1.40 a.m. (Local time) on February 26th, 1930.

126

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, MARCH 21, 1930.

   We find that the Anking, being on a voyage from Hong Kong to Swatow, was on course N. 75 E. True, speed slow at 1.32 a.m. At 1.34 hearing a long blast from a steamer about one point on her port bow she altered course to N. 86 E. (True). At 1.35 hearing a second blast, the Compass bearing of the fog signal not having altered, engines were stopped. Ship then proceeded to lose her way and to fall off to star- board. At 1.39 am. the lights of the Tanda were sighted about 100 feet 6 points on the Port Bow.

   We find that the S.S. Tanda proceeding on a voyage from Moji (Japan) to Hong Kong at 1.20 (local time) on February 26th, 1930, was on a course S. 74 W. True pro- ceeding at four knots having another steamer, name unknown, in position on her star- board beam. Both ships were sounding Regulation fog signals.

   At 1.27 Tanda heard a further fog signal (one long blast) four points on her star- board bow and at 1.35 received "Two long blasts from this ship. At 1 38 Tanda stopped. At 1.383 Starboarded her helm to avoid the ship whose lights had just been sighted on the Starboard bow and which ship from her fog signal was deemed to be stopped and making no way through the water.

At 1.39 a.m. both ships went Full Astern,

At 1.40 a.m. they came into collision.

We are of the opinion that the causes of the collision were as follows:-

(a.) Anking on hearing long blasts in the first instance thought she heard Tanda whereas she actually heard the ship on Tanda's beam. She then rightly ported and had the misfortune to close Tanda.

(b.) When approaching one another both vessels had slight headway causing

Anking to strike Tanda on the Starboard bow abreast No. 2 hatch.

(c.) That Anking's headway was such that going astern overcame it just too

late to avoid impact.

   We find that both Masters handled their ships with caution and in a seaman like manner and we further compliment the Master of the Tanda for his prompt manoeuvre immediately after the moment of impact.

   Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hong Kong, this 13th day of March, 1930.

  No. 483. The following report presented to Government by the Currency Com- mittee, 1930, is published for information.

1st August, 1939.

E. R. HALLIFAX,

Colonial Secretary.

REPORT OF CURRENCY COMMITTEE, 1930.

Your Excellency,

  We, the Currency Committee appointed by Your Excellency's predecessor, the Hon. Mr. W. T. Southorn, C.M.G., Officer Administering the Government, have the honour to submit for Your Excellency's consideration the following report:-

INTRODUCTORY.

General.

  1. We were appointed on the 28th of April, 1930, to make investigation with a view to supplying answers to the following questions, which represented our terms of reference :-

(a) Is the present currency the most advantageous for the purposes of

the trade of this Colony?

(b) In what respects, if any, is the present currency situation in the

Colony unsatisfactory?

(c) If the situation is unsatisfactory in what way can it be remedied? (d) Is the premium on notes over silver detrimental to the prosperity of the Colony? If so can it be controlled and by what means?

Is the linking of the currency with silver advantageous to the Colony? If so can it be more closely linked?

(f) Is it desirable in the interests of the Colony that the value of the dollar be stabilised? If so can any effective steps be taken to that end?

2. We issued in the newspapers a general invitation to the public to put for- ward their views and support them, if required, by oral evidence; we regret however to have to record our disappointment that this advertisement evoked only the most meagre response, and the opportunity thus offered was not availed of at all by ad- vocates of a stabilised currency. We also issued individual invitations to persons who, we considered, were specially qualified to shed light on various aspects of the subject, and who were representative of all interested sections of the community. We received the written views of many of the principal merchants' and bankers associations both Chinese and European in the Colony. We have also had before us the report of the Straits Currency Committee of 1903, of the Royal Commission on Indian Currency and Finance of 1926, and of the recent Kemmerer Commission in China. In all we have heard ten representative witnesses orally and held nine meet- ings.

384

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, AUGUST 1, 1930.

3. All written evidence we have received, and all memoranda previously writ- ten on the subject, to which we have had occasion to refer in this report, are printed as annexures in Part III. The minutes of those meetings at which oral evidence was heard form Part IV. To complete the data before us, and for ease of reference, we have appended in Part II all relevant Hong Kong ordinances and extracts from the supplemental Charters of the Chartered Bank, as well as a copy of the Order-in- Council by which the present currency system of the Colony is established.

Historical.

4. Whilst Hong Kong was still a settlement under Her Majesty's Plenipoten- tiary and Chief Superintendent of the Trade of British Subjects in China, a hetero- geneous collection of coins consisting of Spanish, Mexican and other dollars, East India Company's rupees and copper Chinese cash was proclaimed the circulating me- dium.

   5. Shortly after the island was constituted a Colony, Mexican and other Re- publican dollars were on the 27th of April, 1842, proclaimed the standard currency of the Colony in all Government and Mercantile transactions.

6. On the 1st of May, 1845, by proclamation the gold, silver and copper coins of the United Kingdom, as well as Company's coins, were admitted to circulate side by side with silver dollars This system persisted for some years, but as Government accounts were kept in sterling and revenue was received in coins of all kinds, its inconvenience led first of all in 1853 to an abortive proposal to oust dollars in favour of a sterling currency, and finally in 1863, to a proclamation whereby Mexican dol- lars and other silver dollars of equivalent value that might from time to time be au- thorised became the only legal tender of payment.

   7. It is interesting to note that about this time the coining of a new Hong Kong dollar was undertaken in Hong Kong, but lapsed after about $2,000,000 had been minted. This type of dollar is now obsolete and so rare as to be considered a curio. A new type, the British Trade dollar, afterwards came into popularity and its coinage was undertaken in India and London.

   8. The present currency of the Colony was established by an Order-in-Council proclaimed in 1895, which we have reprinted in full in Part II, and which explains fully the nature of the legal tender coins. It is noteworthy that the Mexican dollar is made the standard, to which the British or any other dollar should conform if it is to be accorded equality of status. The Order-in-Council is noteworthy also as ordain- ing that, in the absence of express agreement to the contrary, in all contracts and transactions involving liability to pay money, payment should be made in the standard coin of the Colony.

   9. There are practically no restrictions on the minting of British dollars by any one who is willing to pay the seigniorage. It is estimated that in all about 230,000,000 British dollars have from time to time been minted, many of which must by now have gone into the melting pot. Mexican dollars are not now minted, but are held as deposits against the issue of notes, and China must have absorbed a number of them. Of Mexican dollars also a large proportion must by now have been melted down. When the British Silver dollar was re-admitted into free circula- tion towards the end of 1929, its minting and importation into the Colony were resum- ed, and it is estimated that 24,000,000 of these have come in since that time, as well as $6,000,000 Mexican from Shanghai It is estimated that another 10,000,000- 15,000,000 British dollars may arrive in the near future. The total amount of coined dollars of various kinds deposited in the custody of the Hong Kong Government against note-issue by the three issuing banks was $57,600,000 at the end of April, 1930. There are also subsidiary coins issued by the Hong Kong Government in circulation sufficient in amount for the purposes required. The nominal amount of these in cir- culation at the end of the year 1929 was $17,914,370 and their market value stood practically at par; the amount of subsidiary coins in stock at the same date was about $1,800,000.

Bank Notes Issued in Hong Kong.

10. We have reprinted in Part II the Hong Kong Ordinances governing the ordinary and excess issue of notes by the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corpora- tion and the Mercantile Bank as well as those portions of the Charter and Supplemental Charters of the Chartered Bank, which govern the note issues of that institution and the security therefor. The latest date up to which these banks are at present em-

}

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, AUGUST 1, 1930. 385

powered to issue notes in the Colony is the 12th of July, 1939 We would invite particular attention to the requirement in the case of the Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corporation of the deposit of an amount of coin never less than one-third of the total issue in circulation, a practice also followed by the Chartered and Mercantile Banks in regard to their Hong Kong issues, and also to the fact that the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation and the Chartered Bank have the option of secur- ing a part of their issues by a deposit of bullion. Another significant feature of the system of note-issue in Hong Kong is that the Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Cor- poration enjoys an authority, not shared by the other banks of issue, whereby it may exceed its statutory limit to any amount by the deposit of an amount of coin or bul- lion equivalent to the value of the excess notes issued. The effect of this is that when the limits of the other two issuing banks have been reached any large emergency de mand may only be met by the Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corporation.

11. The privilege of issuing notes in the Colony was granted to the Chartered Bank in 1853, to the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation in 1866, and to the Mercantile Bank in 1911. The understanding or convention, by which notes be- came accepted in all banking, mercantile and revenue transactions almost as the sole medium of exchange apart from subsidiary coins, is said to date from about 1890 onwards; it subsequently became in fact a tacit agreement not to observe too strictly the terms of the Order-in-Comicil of 1895. The acceptance of this convention was almost universal and any attempt to depart from it by meeting obligations with coin tended to be suppressed by reciprocating in Find. The total daily average amount of notes of the three issuing banks in circulation during the month of April 1930 was over 91 million dollars.

History of the so-called Premium on Notes.

    12. The phenomenon of the local bank note or promise to pay becoming cap- able of purchasing a greater quantity of another currency than the number of silver dollars which it promises to pay could purchase has been a recurrent attribute of Hong Kong currency in a greater or less degree for at least thirty years; but the per- centage of this premium caused no serious inconvenience till 1908 when on it rising to 31% a move was suggested to remedy it by an unlimited Government note issue, as had been attempted in the Straits some years previously. At the suggestion of the Secretary of State for the Colonies this project for a Government note issue was abandoned, and the difficulties were solved for the time being by granting in 1911 the Mercantile Bank the privilege of note issue. During the war and post-war periods, when the price of silver was high, the problem did not arise; but after 1926, when silver declined in value, the divergence became marked, until in September, 1929, it represented a difference of 20%. The course of the premium is traced by Professor Robertson, Mr. Ferguson and Mr. Breen in their memoranda in Part III. Mr. Breen also gives an account of the attempts made to remedy a situation, which was becoming more and more difficult to handle, as the continued fall in the value of silver tended to aggravate the premium in so far as the rate of exchange in the Colony lagged in following silver on the downward course. Subsequent action by Govern- ment to assist in remedying the situation by reducing the stamp duty on bank notes to the extent of requiring not more than 1% per annum on $45,000,000 of the ag- gregate bank note-issues of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation is evidenced by the correspondence with the associated non-issuing banks, (printed in Part III), which culminated in Government Notification No. 625 of 1929, (also printed in Part III). The premium still persists however to quite an appreciable degree as silver keeps dropping.

REPLY TO THE QUESTIONNAIRE FORMING THE TERMS

OF REFERENCE:

(a) Is the present currency the most advantageous for the purposes of the trade of the Colony?

    13. We have found it difficult to keep our treatment of this question separate from that of questions (e) and (f), and our answers to these questions must be read as complementary one to another. We have assumed that by "present currency"

is meant generally the currency established on a silver basis by the Order in-Council of 1895, and that there is no immediate reference in the question to the tangible shapes which this currency has taken, the disadvantages and unsatis-

386 THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, AUGUST 1, 1930.

factory features of which are dealt with in our reply to question (b). We note also that the scope of the question is limited to trade, a term which we understand as connoting the business of financing, manufacturing, buying and selling goods,-and does not extend except indirectly to the individual or collective interests of any other persons than traders.

   14. Prefacing so much, we have from the evidence received, to reply to the first question in the affirmative, so long as China uses a currency based on silver.

15. Our view in this respect has the support of all the evidence taken by us except that of two witnesses. One of these, who is Professor of Economics at Hong Kong University, favoured a change to a gold basis even if China remained on a silver basis, being inclined to discount he disabilities to trade which a change to gold would involve; the other, who is Chief Manager of a shipbuilding firm in the Colony, considered the present currency unsatisfactory because of the effect the fluctuations in the price of silver had in making it difficult to estimate sterling costs in his business, or to keep a firm offer open for the length of time required between tendering and acceptance, and also to finance ships after construction; he advocated therefore some measure of stabilisation, though he would not go so far as to say we should depart from the silver basis before China did so.

16. It may be apposite here to recapitulate very briefly the arguments upon which traders both past and present--(se especially the memoranda of Messrs. Mackie and Russell Nos. 34 and 35 in Part III),-rely to show how any attempt to base the currency on any other metallic standard of value than that used in China would be harmful to the trade and thus indirectly to the general welfare of the Colony. They are as follows:-

(i) Hong Kong is not a producing but a transit centre; its exports and imports are almost entirely on China's account; the trade which it handles is in reality China's trade. In spite of the fact that all countries from which imports come and to which exports go are now on a gold basis, and that there is a great improvement nowadays in the speeding up of communications between the Colony and China, it still is of the utmost importance that the Colony's currency should conform as closely as possible to that of China, and that unnecessary exchange transactions be eliminated.

(ii) The ill-effects of any divergence are amply shown when a high premium exists on Hong Kong exchange and drives business past the Colony to Shang- hai. It naturally follows that these ill-effects would be accentuated by making a clean break between the two currencies.

(iii) If Hong Kong had a currency based on gold with China's currency still remaining on a silver basis, merchants fear that the financing of trade would tend to gravitate towards China, where a direct exchange transaction could be effected and bargains struck readily to the exclusion of Hong Kong as an intermediary. Trade might thus pass the Colony, and a centrifugal move- ment might set in, which in the long run would adversely affect the prestige and prosperity of the Colony.

(iv) We do not attach much weight to certain other objections which were mentioned to us. For instance, some feared that Chinese merchants. being traditionally accustomed to handle silver, might prefer to continue to do so, and move their businesses elsewhere rather than adjust their methods to the new currency. Again it has been stated that there is the possibility in the event of a marked appreciation of the price of silver that the Colony would forfeit a great portion of its silver token coinage to the melting pot.

(b) In what respects if any is the present currency situation in the Colony unsatisfactory?

17. We have concluded.-and are supported in our conclusion by all the evidence before us, that the currency system of the Colony suffers from the follow- ing faults --

(i) There is in fact a fluctuating premium on the bank-note over the silver dollar in exchange.

(ii) The silver dollar is itself a most inconvenient medium, being difficult to handle, carry and store.

L

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, AUGUST 1, 1930 387

18. Some witnesses have also expressed dissatisfaction with those provisions of the currency system by which the privilege of note issue is delegated to the somewhat arbitrary control of private banking institutions

(c) If the situation is unsatisfactory in what way can it be remedied?

19. As regards remedies for the premium we deal with these fully in our reply to question (d).

20. As regards remedies for the inconvenience attending the use of the silver dollar we consider that this inconvenience might be lessened to some extent, and at the same time the further minting of British dollars stopped, if more advantage were taken of the means that already exist of issuing notes against deposits of bar-silver in Hong Kong or in London. In general the practice of issuing notes against bar-silver seems to us preferable to issuing them against silver dollars. We realise however that many coins may still be needed as currency and that there would be difficulty in dis- posing of those already minted without loss of the cost of making and importing them. We do not favour any attempt to prohibit the minting or importation of British dollars, as such action might simply tend to raise the premium on the note, until some exchange corrective in the form of silver bars is provided.

21. As regards the control of note issue by private banking institutions we have more to say on this topic when we come to discuss the remedies for the premium. Those who are dissatisfied with the system of issue by private banks have suggested to us as alternatives, either that Government should take over the whole note issue, or that it should exercise a much more direct control than it does at present over the issuing banks. We have given careful consideration to their views, but have concluded that much of their dissatisfaction arises from a misapprehension regarding the obligation of the note-issuing banks. Although notes were never legal tender, but were primarily a convenient appendage to the currency, and although the law never contemplated that they should supplant silver dollars, it has come about that a demand for currency is in fact a demand for notes, to supply which in practice entails a pur- chase of gold by a bank of issue. Consequently what the party of demand regards prima facie as an obligation in regard to currency becomes, from the point of view of the party of supply, nothing more or less than an exchange operation, which can only be optional. We doubt whether in the special circumstances of this Colony, from which a large quantity of notes must continually be drained into the hinterland of China, such an obligation could be place i even on Government as a note-issuing authority.

   22. We cannot moreover see that in the circumstances of this Colony a Gov- ernment note-issue would have any advantages over a properly controlled private note- issue. On the contrary it might involve Government, and indirectly the taxpayer, in the risks of heavy losses due to fluctuations in the value of silver and securities, risks which bankers, being daily engaged in them, are more competent both to anticipate and cover. A Government note-issue again would involve Government in heavy initial expenditure in laying down notes and building treasuries to hold the reserves against them, and in a constantly recurring charge for the staff of a special note department.

(d) Is the premium on notes over silver detrimental to the prosperity of the Colony? If so, can it be controlled and by what means?

23. We find, and are supported in our finding by all the evidence, that the pre- mium, as a fluctuating and uncertain factor, tends to drive trade past the Colony, and is thus detrimental to its prosperity.

24. The causes from which the premium arises are fully discussed in various memoranda printed in Part III. Briefly summarised they are as follows:-

   There is a chronic excess of "invisible" exports consisting of Chinese emi- grants' remittances from abroad, which lead to large purchases of gold all round by the banks. Presumably cover in the shape of sales of gold is wanting, and thus the market becomes one-sided. It might have been expected that relief would have been obtained by the resumption of the import of silver dollars, but the difficulties attending their use for inter-bank commitments are still considerable, even though since Octo- ber last year it was agreed between banks to accept them freely. Prior to that date by tacit understanding between banks they were not accepted at all, and consequent- ly no actual exchange corrective existed. The British dollar is current to any large extent only in Hong Kong and its costs through seigniorage and interest are appro-

?

388 THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, AUGUST 1, 1950

ximately 5%; moreover since the only way of disposing of it elsewhere is by melting it down, to meet the loss thereby incurred, another 3% might have to be added to its cost. Consequently, in comparison with the uncoined metal, the silver dollar pos- sesses grave disadvantages, in that its import and export points are widely removed.

25. As regards the possibility and means of controlling this premium, we con- sider that if the issuing banks here were to give out notes freely in exchange for legal silver coins, the exchange level of Hong Kong currency must approximate to sil- ver parity, but, as we have already indicated, the inconveniences attendant on the use of silver dollars discourage the banks of issue from accepting any more of them than is absolutely necessary for their business. If it is assumed that silver parity is maintained in Shanghai, the local quotation for taels day by day against a parity of roughly Tls. 72 accurately indicates the extent of the premium here, but in spite of Jarge imports of British dollars the expected effect of removing the premium or restor- ing a normal tacl rate has not followed. An exchange corrective therefore has still to De found.

26. We might here refer in passing to the use of sycee in Shanghai, and re- mark how in spite of its disabilities this medium functions within certain limits as an exchange corrective. The exchange level in Shanghai cannot remain for long too high above the laying-down cost of silver; and again, opposite but natural forces are immediately put in action should the exchange level tend to move too far below the actual value of silver. It may be assumed roughly that, when exchange in Shanghai is quoted at 44% below silver, a

      % below silver, a point has been reached at which it begins to be pro- fitable to ship sycee and sell it for its silver content. We have previously shown that the export point of the British dollar does not arrive until our exchange falls to over 5% below the price of the silver content of the dollar. Bearing in mind then that as a circulating medium British dollars have a very limited use, and in settlement of inter-bank commitments are far from being acceptable, it occurs to us to put forward the suggestion that some scheme might be agreed upon among the banks whereby bar-silver might be utilised in the place of minted coins in inter-bank settlements. All indications seem to show that there is a glut of silver dollars in the Colony, and if some such scheme for the use of bar-silver could be agreed upon among the banks the loss on seigniorage might be avoided, and it might then be possible to prevent the further indiscriminate minting of British dollars, for minting which permission might be granted by Government only in special circumstances when the note reserves or the Colony's requirements demand a further supply. We do not consider that outside interests should be allowed the latitude permitted under the present system of saddl ing Hong Kong with superfluous coins in order to gain an immediate profit, a practice which incidentally aggravates the problem for the Colony if and when stabilisation has to be effected.

27. To give effect to these measures of reform, and provide for that elasticity in the currency which is necessary to meet the growing needs of the Colony, we have arrived at the conclusion, after our examination of all aspects of the case, that some readjustment may be called for in the restrictions now imposed upon the note-issuing banks. Admittedly the power of note issue possessed by banks involves a serious responsibility on their part to Government, which represents the interests of the pub- lic, and we make the following proposal therefore with some diffidence. As the law stands at present the extent of note issue is limited by the amount of the capital of the bank concerned. Only the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation may issue notes in excess of the statutory limit, and then only under onerous conditions. We think the prescribed limit should be less arbitrary and should be subject to periodical revision, provided always that the banks of issue fully cover their notes by the deposit in the Colony of bullion or silver dollars to the extent of at least one- third, the balance being covered by approved securities deposited entirely under Government control. The public would thus be adequately safe-guarded.

28. As the root of the difficulties in connection with the premium is to be fraced to an excess of inward remittances, it is obvious that the recent lowering of the rate of interest allowed by banks on deposits should also in the long run tend to remedy the situation. But owing to the unprecedented fall in silver, overseas Chinese have been induced to make excessively large remittances to Hong Kong with a view to getting the benefit from an expected rise in exchange, and it may be some time therefore before the action of the banks will make itself fully felt.

   (e) Is the linking of the currency with silver advantageous to the Colony? If so can it be more closely linked?

   29. We consider that we have supplied sufficient answers to these questions in our remarks in reply to question (a), where we imply that as long as China links her currency to silver so long must it be advantageous to the Colony to do likewise. In the preceding paragraphs we have indicated the means by which a closer link may be forged.

(f) Is it desirable in the interests of the Colony that the value of the dollar be stabilised? If

If so can any effective steps be taken to that end?

   30. It is conceded on all hands that stabilisation in currency matters is an ideal which it is most desirable to attain, and if it could be realised here to the extent to which it has been effected elsewhere, all the problems connected with the Colony's currency would automatically disappear. The only justification for adhering to the existing silver currency is, as we have already fully explained, the fact that Hong Kong is yoked to South China both geographically and commercially, and in the last resort the question becomes a choice of evils: whether the Colony should face the loss of trade, which is apprehended if it adopts a gold basis, or whether it should continue to be buffeted by the fluctuations attendant on the use of silver as a basis for its cur-

rency.

31. We would here emphasize that stabilisation could not be effected at any arbitrary figure but would have to be determined by the value of silver at the time when the change is made, as present holdings of silver must be sold for what they will We are not prepared obtain in the new currency in order to finance that currency. to hazard an opinion as to the sterling price our silver dollar on finally being disposed of would fetch, were stabilisation to be agreed upon, but undoubtedly the price would be much lower than the exchange value of our currency at the time the decision to stabilise was taken. Any attempt therefore to fix arbitrarily the sterling value of the dollar at a higher rate must involve a serious loss, which neither a Government nor any private individual would be prepared to suffer. It is obvious that, during the period of transition towards stabilisation and for long afterwards, trade and com- merce will suffer severe dislocation, but how far-reaching the effects may be, or how quickly the Colony would recover, can only be a matter for conjecture.

32. As regards the future of silver we do not feel confident to express any definite views. But though we fully realise the uncertainties and risks of the situa- tion in this respect, we would deprecate any over-hasty action to effect stabilisation at a figure that subsequent movements in the price of silver might prove to have been In this connection it ill-advised and disastrous to the best interests of the Colony

may not be out of place to repeat the evidence given by American interests before the Royal Commission on Indian Currency and Finance in May 1926, when with regard to the effect of the price of silver on the world's production it was stated that, should the price of silver fall to 50 U.S. gold cents per ounce, 20% of the world's pro- duction would be made unprofitable, whilst a fall to 33 cents per ounce would make 58% unprofitable. It was also pointed out at the same time that the reduction of output would probably not follow immediately on the decline of prices. These remarks might well be taken in conjunction with the views of the Chairman of the Shanghai British Chamber of Commerce, who in February last in a letter addressed to the Chinese Minister of Commerce and Industry, Nanking, made the following

statement:

"The present stocks of silver in Shanghai would be insufficient to finance

China's trade, were such trade normal".

  33. Finally since China has now worked out through the agency of the Kem- merer Commission a complete and detailed scheme, whereby in more propitious cir- cumstances she may make the change to a gold standard currency, we consider that it is of the utmost importance that Hong Kong, as being unable herself to exercise any control over the price of silver, should be in a position to anticipate such a move on the part of the last remaining user of silver on a large scale. Although we cannot see that China will be able to take this step in the immediate future and although we are rather disposed to regard China's desire for a gold standard for the time being as a pious hope, since any such scheme in the nature of things must entail the reor- ganisation of her political and fiscal machinery and the obtaining of large financial credits from outside, nevertheless Hong Kong should not be found unprepared for

Ü

such an event in China, or she might find herself a holder of much-cheapened silver, a situation too disastrous to contemplate.

   34. We recommend therefore that all available data should as soon as possible be placed before expert opinion with a view to the formulating and having in read- iness a feasible scheme worked out in detail whereby the transfer of the Colony's cur- rency from a silver to a gold basis may be effected as smoothly and with as little trouble and expense as possible, in case a sudden change-over be forced upon the Colony.

35. Although it is premature at the present stage to indicate what gold- currency unit should be adopted by Hong Kong, our close business relations with China require us to stress the advisability of this Colony adopting a monetary unit identical with that of our neighbours, following the example set in this respect by Canada with regard to the United States of America.

   36. In conclusion we desire to add that, since our terms of reference confined our enquiry primarily to a consideration of the effects of the Colony's currency upon trade, we have refrained purposely from commenting on the hardships of residents. and others financially interested in the Colony, who are losing heavily owing to the unprecedented fall in the price of silver, but we trust that the omission may not be construed as implying any lack of sympathy with these sufferers.

37. We desire to express our thanks to our Secretary, Mr. T. Megarry, of the Hong Kong Cadet Service, for the capable way in which he performed his many and arduous duties, and also to Miss V. R. Harrison, for her assistance in the secre- tarial work.

We have the honour to be,

Reservations by the Hon. Dr. R. H. Kotewall, C.M.G., LL.D.

I have signed this report with two reservations :

A.-Currency Advisory Board.

1. In paragraph 21 of the report alternative suggestions for the better control of the Colony's note-issue are mentioned. They are (a) that the Government should take over the note-issue, and (b) that it should exercise a more direct control over the note-issuing banks than it does at present. Arguments are given in paragraphs 21 and 22 to refute the first suggestion, but no reasons are advanced against the second which seems to me to be of such importance as to merit serious consideration.

391

Page 94.

2. In paragraph 16 of my memorandum I express the view that, while No. 33 in the first alternative seems, for reasons given therein, unwise and unnecessary, the Part III, fact that it has been suggested by such important organisation and local residents as the Chinese Bankers' Association, the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, the Hon. Mr. J. J. Paterson and Mr. R. M. Dyer, C.B.E., indicates that there is a widespread desire on the part of the Public that the Government should not altogether dissociate itself from the control of the note-issue of the Colony.

3. Many business men and bankers consider--and I agree with them-that the present system lays too great and too grave a responsibility upon the managers of the three note-issuing banks. Of these the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, by virtue of its premier position in China, and of the special privilege it enjoys in being allowed by law to issue notes in excess of the statutory limit to any amount under certain specified conditions, exercises the greatest power; and consequently it is upon its Chief Manager that the heaviest responsibility lies in a time of financial crisis. This means that in such a time the welfare of the Colony largely hangs upon the decision of one man. On one or two occasions in the past the Public has asked itself whether the action or inaction of the Bank in the matter of note-issue was to the best interests of the Colony as a whole. The Public has the right to expect that the note-issue, upon which the prosperity of the Colony depends to so great an extent, should not be subject to the will of one single individual. At the present moment Hong Kong is fortunate in having at the head of its chief bank a man of large vision, but it requires to be safeguarded against the man of narrow views, who may at another time occupy the same position. In other words, we trust the man in power to-day, but we mistrust the system that confers a position of such power. It may be interesting to note that in paragraph 29 of the report, the Committee expresses the view that "admittedly the power of note-issue possessed by banks involves a serious responsibility on

                               on their part to Government, which represents the interests of the Public."

4. Sharing this view, and in the absence of other schemes for a better control of the note-issue, I recommend the establishment of an Advisory Board that could in a time of financial crisis advise the Government (and, incidentally, the note-issuing banks) what steps should be taken to meet the situation. The fact that the Colony would then be prepared for an emergency by the existence of a body of experts (some of whom at least would be disinterested and independent parties) ready to study any problem and explore all avenues for remedial measures, would be sufficient justification for my recommendation.

5. I should mention that the proposal to institute this Board has the support of two other members of the Committee.

6. In view of my recommendation, I am unable to subscribe to the view expressed in the last sentence of paragraph 29-"The Public would thus be ade- quately safeguarded"-unless it is modified by the addition of the words "but in the opinion of three members of the Committee, the establishment of an Advisory Board is necessary for full security."

392

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, AUGUST 1,

B.-Stabilisation.

7. My second reservation concerns the question of the stabilisation of the dollar. While the other members of this Committee advise in paragraph 36 that "all available data should......be placed before expert opinion with a view to the formulating and having in readiness a feasible scheme......whereby the transfer of the Colony's currency from a silver to a gold basis may be effected ....... in case a sudden change-over be forced upon the Colony", I am of the opinion that expert advice should be sought as to whether this Colony can now, or at some future date, safely adopt the gold basis, eren if China does not take the same course.

8. From paragraph 27 of my memorandum it will be seen that I, too, have reached the conclusion that the time is unpropitious for Hong Kong to change to a gold basis, but that I feel that if we were to do so even before China, the result might not be as harmful to the Colony as it is feared. I should like here to call attention to the arguments in favour of stabilisation which I have collected from various sources and arranged in paragraph 26 of my memorandum.

9. I have a great respect for the opinion of my colleagues on the Committee, appreciating their technical knowledge of the subject, and their ripe experience of business and banking conditions in Hong Kong and China. At the same time I feel that the Colony ought not to rely solely upon the opinion of this Committee in attempting to dispose of the problem which affects the very life blood of the Colony's trade. I hold the view that the question should be referred for advice to the highest possible experts whose disinterestedness and lack of bias cannot be questioned.

The Colonial Secretary replied as follows:

The Government sees no reason at present to consider the question of a revision of the scale of the fares in question which, after remaining unchanged for many years, were raised to the present level in 1924. It is pointed out that the licence fee for public jinrickshas has, so far as the Island of Hong Kong is concerned, only recently been reduced by paragraph 3 (d) of Government Notification 376 of 17th June, 1930.

Where the company declines to make such connexion it shall serve upon the consumer a notice stating its reasons for so declining.

For the purpose of ascertaining that a consumer's wires and fitingse have not subsequently fallen into an unsafe condition the company shall tmak periodical tests at intervals of not more than five years. The commencement date of the first or earliest of such intervals shall be the 1st day of January, 1931. For the purposes of such tests, and for the purpose of discovering whether a defect exists at some part of a consumer's installation within or upon the consumer's premises, the company may, by notice in writing, require the consumer at some reasonable time after the service of the notice to permit any officer of the company to inspect and test the installation. Service of any such notice may be effected by letter sent by ordinary post addressed to the con- sumer's premises, or by leaving the notice at such premises.

The period of discon- tinuance as aforesaid shall be excluded in computing the interval of not more than five years above mentioned.

If after such inspection and testing the company is reasonably satisfied that a defect exists at some part of a consumer's installation the company shall by notice require the consumer within a reasonable time after the service of such notice, to remove the defect.

If after retesting by an officer of the company the installation is found to be still defective, the company shall forthwith discontinue the supply of energy to the premises in question.

No. 764.

Notice to Mariners.

New Storm Signal Codes, Local and Non-Local, will be introduced at Hong Kong from 1931, March 1.

2. Copies of the Codes are appended to this Notice. They were recommended for general use in the Far East at a Conference of Directors of Far Eastern Weather Ser- vices, held at Hong Kong from April 28 to May 2, 1930.

    3. The alterations to the existing Hong Kong Local Storm Signal Code were made to meet the requirements of the Philippine Archipelago, where conditions are different and where no Non-Local Storm Signal Code is used.

4. The new Non-Local Storm Signal Code is an adaptation of the China Seas Storm Signal Code, the alterations being the outcome of 10 years' experience with that code.

Signals 5 to 8 are not hoisted until it is tolerably certain that a gale (40-45 m.p.h. by the Dines Anemometer) will occur at Hong Kong or Gap Rock, or when a typhoon is sufficiently near to warrant a danger signal, although the occurrence of a gale is by no means certain.

   If, with one of signals 5 to 8 hoisted, conditions indicate that the wind will not only increase but attain hurricane force, sigual No. 9 may be dispensed with, thus giving the longest possible warning of destructive winds.

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

   If, with one of signals 5 to 8 hoisted, conditions indicate that the wind will not only increase but attain hurricane force, sigual No. 9 may be dispensed with, thus giving the longest possible warning of destructive winds.

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

676 THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 19, 1930.

 When the centre of a typhoon passes over the locality the wind decreases rapidly to a calm, or nearly calm, and blows violently from the opposite direction when the centre has passed.

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

 The Day Signals will be displayed on the Radio mast at the Royal Observatory, at the Harbour Office, H.M.S. Tamar, Green Island, Hong Kong and Kowloon Wharf and Godown Co., the Standard Oil Co. at Lai-chi-kok, the flagstaff near the Field Officer's Quarters at Lyemun, Gough Hill Police Station and Taipo (District Office's flagstaff).

 The Night Signals will be displayed, at sunset, on the Radio mast at the Royal Observatory, on the tower of the Railway Station, H.M.S. Tamar, the Harbour Office, on the flagstaff near the Field Officer's Quarters at Lyemun, Kowloon City Police Station, and at Gough Hill Police Station. They will have the same signification as the day signals.

Signal No. 10 will be accompanied by explosive bombs as above, in the event of the information conveyed by this signal being first published at night.

Supplementary Warnings.

When Local Signals are displayed in the Harbour, signals will be displayed as follows:-

When No. 1 Signal is displayed in the Harbour.

Red T by day.

2 Red Lights vertical by night

When Signals Nos. 5 to 10 are displayed in the Harbour.

Black Coue by day

2 Green Lights vertical by night.

These Signals will be displayed at the following Stations :---

Aberdeen.

Cheung Chow.

Gap Rock.

Ping Shan.

Stanley.

Shaukiwan.

Saikung.

Shataukok.

Tsun Wan.

Tai O. Waglan.

 Further details can always be given to ocean vessels, on demand, by signal from Lighthouses, or by wireless telegraphy.

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

Signal No. 1 is intended as a warning to "Stand By" and watch for the next signal. When it is hoisted after one of Nos. 5 to 8 has been displayed it will mean that, on account of a change in the track of the typhoon, or for some other reason, a gale is no longer expected from the direction indicated by the last signal, and that another black sigual may possibly be hoisted later.

NON-LOCAL STORM SIGNAL CODE, SUITABLE UNIVERSALLY FOR VISUAL AND TELEGRAPHIC STORM WARNINGS, ALSO FOR THE "GENERAL INFERENCE" FOLLOWING SYNOPTIC WEATHER MESSAGES.

    Recommended for use in the Far East at a Conference of Directors of Far Eastern Weather Services, held at Hong Kong in the year 1930.

Adopted at Hong Kong from 1931, March 1.

The Code is an adaptation of the China Seas Storm Signal Code which has been in use in China since 1918.

The following ten symbols are used:-

    (2) The signals are hoisted at the yard-arms and at the mast head of a Storm Signal Mast and have the following significance:

Typhoon and depression Signals :-

(a) 4 symbols at one yard-arm showing the position of the centre. (b) 3 symbols at the other yard-arm, showing the direction of motion or, alternatively, certain conditions; also the accuracy with which the centre has been located, and the intensity. (Tables 1, 2 and 3). (c) 1 symbol at the mast head showing the time at which the centre was

in the position indicated (Table 4).

Gale Signals:-

(d) 1 symbol at one yard-arm showing the region threatened (Table 5). (e) 2 symbols at the other yard-arm showing the general direction from which the gale is blowing, in points: 08 East, 16=South, 24 West, 32 = North.

=

(f) 1 symbol at the mast head showing the time at which the gale was as

stated.

    (3) The two upper symbols of group (a) indicate by their corresponding. num- bers the latitude, and the two lower symbols the longitude, of the centre of a circle (of a radius specified by the lowest symbol of group (b)) within which the centre of the typhoon or depression lies. The symbols for longitude give the tens and units only; thus 32 indicates longitude 132°.

    (4) The two upper symbols of group (b) indicate the direction in which the typhoon etc., is travelling (Table No. 1) or alternatively, certain conditions (Table 2).

(5) The third and lowest symbol of the group (b) indicates the radius of the circle whose centre is shown by the latitude and longitude, together with the degree of intensity or, alternatively, one of four conditions which can sometimes be given in addition to the direction of motion (Table 1) and in preference to the radius and intensity signal.

(6) The only velocity signals given are "stationary or very slow", which is an alternative to the direction of motion, and "exceptionally high rate of travel" which may be given in addition to direction of motion.

(7) Caution. The position indicated by the latitude and longitude signals does not purport to be the position of the centre of the typhoon, but merely the centre of a circle of specified radius within which the centre of the typhoon is believed to lie.

(8) In the China Seas Code the Time Signal (Table 4) indicates the time at which the warning was issued. In the present code it shows the time at which the typhoon or depression was in the position indicated. The table has been expand- ed as observations are now available from certain stations at 11h and 17h. Symbol No. 9 provides for occasions when the centre has been located from observations at other than routine hours.

و

(9) The code can also be used for the "general inference' following a synoptic message.

    Thus-An anticyclone, central in latitude 36° N. and longitude 110° E. is strengthening and moving eastward, and the depression appears to be stationary in latitude 22° N. and longitude 104° E., but the position is only approximate,

   The table serves for typhoons, depressions and anticyclones: also for the doubtful case typhoon or depression.

   The figures in the last two columns will not be displayed on the storm signal masts. They are for the "general inference" following a synoptic message. The display of the figures in column 3 is optional.

   (a) The word "typhoon" has been retained as it is in general use throughout the Far East. The word "cyclone" is in this case preferable.

EXECUTIVE COUNCIL.

No. 770.

Hong Kong.

Rules as to the conduct of examinations instituted for persons who wish to procure colonial certificates of compe- tency as masters, mates or engineers in the Mercantile Marine, and as to the qualifications of the applicants, laid down and made by the Governor in Council under section 4 (8) of the Merchant Shipping Ordinance, 1899, Ordinance No. 10 of 1899, on the 26th day of November, 1930.

RULES.

CHAPTER I.

General Rules.

1. These rules are laid down in pursuance of the Mer- chant Shipping Ordinance, 1899, and shall come into opera- tion on the 1st day of January, 1931, in substitution for the rules heretofore made under section 4 (8) of the said Ordin-

ance.

2. Examination of Aliens.-No alien may be examin- ed for a certificate of competency as Master or First Mate unless he has acted as a Master, Chief Officer or Chief Engineer of a British ship or as Skipper or Second Hand of a British fishing boat at any time during the War, and is certified by the Admiralty to have performed good and faithful service in that capacity.

3. Certificates of Competency will be granted to those persons who pass the requisite examination, and otherwise For this purpose ex- comply with the requisite conditions. aminers have been appointed.

4. The examinations will commence on such a day and at such an hour as may be appointed by the Harbour Master.

5. Candidates for examination must make their applica- tions upon the appropriate form, which must be filled in at the Harbour Office, and the Candidates' testimonials and dis- charges must be lodged with the Harbour Master.

The Examiner should be particularly careful to ascertain that there are no gaps in the candidate's service which are not properly accounted for, before he is allowed up for ex- amination.

6. Proof of Nationality. Every candidate for a cer- tificate of competency of any grade will be required to produce proof of nationality.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

7. Proof of British nationality will, in ordinary circum- stances, involve the production of a birth certificate or of a certificate of naturalisation. If an applicant for examination cannot produce such a certificate he should be asked to furnish such documentary evidence of nationality, or of birth and nationality of parents, as he may be able to obtain, and, if necessary, the case should be referred to the Principal Ex- aminer of Masters and Mates for consideration.

8. If the applicant is not a British subject he will, as rule, be able to produce some official document testifying to his nationality. If there is any doubt as to the authenticity of such document, the Examiner should consult the nearest Con- sular Officer of the nation to which the applicant belongs. If necessary, the case should be remitted to the Principal Ex- aminer of Masters and Mates for consideration.

9. Application: particulars of sea service. A candidate's eligibility for examination will depend (amongst other things) upon the amount of sea service which he has performed and upon the ranks which he has held on board the various vessels in which he has been employed. It is therefore most important that the particulars which the can- didate inserts in Division H of the application form (Exn. 2) should be accurately stated.

Candidates for certificates, for which service as watch- keeping officer is required, must also produce certificates of watchkeeping service signed by the Masters of the vessels on which they have served. Specimen forms of these certificates are shown in Appendix D.

It must be clearly understood that the amount of service laid down in the Regulations for each grade of certificate of competency is the absolute minimum that can be accepted, and unless a candidate can show the full amount he must in no case be allowed up for examination.

10. Testimonials required. Testimonials to charac- ter, including sobriety, and to experience and ability, on board ship for at least the last twelve months of sea service preceding the date of application to be examined, will be required of all candidates, and without producing them no person will be examined.

11. Penalty for misconduct.-Candidates who have neglected to join their vessels after having signed articles, or who have deserted their vessels after having joined, or who have been found guilty of gross misconduct on board, will be required to produce satisfactory proofs of two years' subsequent service and good conduct at sea, unless the Gover- nor, after having investigated the matter, should see fit to reduce the time.

12. Deafness and other physical and mental dis- abilities. If during the progress of the examination the Examiner finds that a candidate is afflicted with deafness, with an impediment in his speech, or with some other physical or mental infirmity, and he is satisfied upon further investigation that the degree of deafness or of the impediment or other infirmity is such as to render the candidate incompetent to discharge the ordinary duties of a mate or master at sea, he should not allow the candidate to complete his examination and should return his examination fee; but every case in which this action is taken must be reported to the Governor.

687

688

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

If the candidate subsequently produces a medical certi- ficate to the effect that his hearing, speech, or physical or mental condition has improved or is normal, the Governor will take into consideration the question of allowing the candidate to sit again for examination.

13. Foreigners must know English. Foreigners must prove to the satisfaction of the examiners that they can speak and write the English language sufficiently well to per- form the duties required of them on board a British vessel. If a candidate fails for ignorance of the English language he will not be re-examined until after a lapse of six months.

14. If, after a Candidate has passed the examination, it is discovered on further investigation that his services are insufficient to entitle him to receive a Certificate of the grade for which he has passed, the Certificate will not be granted to him, but if the Harbour Master is satisfied that the error in the calculation of the Candidate's services did not occur through any fault or wilful misrepresentation on his part. he may be granted a Certificate of such lower grade as his service entitles him to. The superior Certificate will not be granted until the Candidate has performed the amount of service in which he was deficient, and has been re-examined in all the subjects, unless the Harbour Master sees fit to dispense with the re-examination.

15. Examination of Officers in Royal Navy.- Officers of the Royal Navy may be examined for certificates of competency on the same conditions as officers in the Mer- cantile Marine, but the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty have directed that the applications of officers wishing to be so examined should be made, if on the active list. through their commanding officers, and if on halfpay direct to the Secretary of the Admiralty, who, in either case, will forward the application to the Board of Trade.

16. Failure in the written or the oral part of the examination.-Candidates for any grade of certificate will proceed to the oral examination irrespective of whether they have passed or failed in their written work.

17. Where a candidate passes in the written portion of the examination and fails in the oral, or vice versa, his pass in that portion in which he has satisfied the examiners will hold good for a period of six months from the date of the exami- nation. If he does not pass the remainder of the examination within this period he will again be required to be examined both in the written and in the oral portions. The Governor may in exceptional circumstances decide to extend this period up to a limit of one year.

18. Penalties for failure. In the case of a second failure or any subsequent failure in the written or the oral portion of the examination, or in both, an interval of two months must elapse from the date of the last failure before a candidate can be re-examined. No further penalty will be imposed save in those cases where the Examiner considers further sea service necessary. Such sea service will not ex- ceed six months.

When a candidate fails in the oral portion of the exam- ination, the Examiner, in making his report on the form Exn. 14, should state whether any further sea service must be per- formed by the candidate and he should also insert this informa- tion in the form Exn. 2.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

Inability to repeat verbatim the Articles of the Collision Regulations will not entail failure in the oral examination if the candidate understands the full significance, content and practical application of the Articles.

19. Examination in Signalling.-A candidate who is eligible for examination for any grade of certificate for which signalling is required may take this part of the examina- tion at any time within the six months immediately before or after he presents himself for examination in the written and oral portions.

A candidate who fails in signalling but passes in every other subject may, at any time within the six months following his first attempt, be re-examined in signalling only, and, if he then passes, will receive his certificate of competency.

Subject to the above conditions, a candidate may be allowed. to take the signalling examination in any week during which examinations of Masters and Mates are being held at the port, but the special fee for this examination (see rule 24) must be paid for each separate attempt.

20. Candidates failing may be examined for cer- tificate of lower grade. If a candidate fails in his ex- amination for a foreign-going certificate, and the subjects in which he has failed are not included in the syllabus prescribed for a foreign-going certificate of a lower grade, he may, if he so desires, be examined for the lower grade certificate without further formal application or payment of fee, but he will be required to complete the whole of the work prescribed for such lower grade.

No part, however, of the fee he has paid will be returned to him, and on presenting himself, when qualified, for re- examination for the higher certificate, he will be required to pay a further full fee.

21. Fee always paid first.-Applicants for examina- tion, and persons enquiring as to their eligibility, will be required, in making their application on form Exn. 2, to pay the examination fee before any step is taken in the way of inquiring into their services or testing their qualifications. If the candidate is found not to be eligible the fee will either be returned to him or placed to his credit until he is eligible.

22. The fee for examination must be paid to the Officer deputed for that purpose by the Harbour Master, in the Har- bour Office. If a Candidate offers a gratuity to any Officer of the Department, he will be regarded as having committed an act of misconduct, and will be rejected, and not allowed to be again examined for twelve months, either at the Port where the offence was committed, or at any other Port.

23. Fee in case of failure. The fee paid for examina- tion for a certificate of competency includes the fee of one dollar for examination in the sight tests, and if the candidate fails to pass those tests, this fee will, with the exception of one dollar, be returned to him.

If a candidate fails to pass any other part of the examina- tion no part of the fee will be returned to him.

Where a candidate for a certificate of competency is re- examined in the written or in the oral part of the examination only he will be required to pay in respect of such re-examina- tion a fee of ten dollars.

NOTE 1-For certain fees payable by applicants for colonial certificates of competency see section 4 (12) of the Merchant Shipping Ordinance, 1899.

NOTE 2. No abatement will be made to the fee charged to a Candidate in consequence of his possessing a Certificate of a lower grade.

25. First Aid to the Injured.-(a) Every candidate for a certificate of competency of any grade as Master or Mate will be required to produce a certificate issued by the St. John Ambulance Association, the St. Andrew's Ambu- lance Association, the St. Patrick's Ambulance Association, the British Red Cross Society, the London County Council, the Glamorgan County Council, the Leith Nautical College or other approved body or by a Medical Officer of one of His Majesty's ships, to the effect that he has passed examination in First Aid to the injured

(b) The certificate must be an adult certificate, i.e., obtained by the candidate when sixteen years of age or more, and the examination for it must have been passed not more than three years before the date of the examination for the certificate of competency. Certificates issued by the St. John Ambulance Association more than three years before the exam- ination for a certificate of competency will, however, be accepted, provided that, at the expiration of three years since its issue, the certificate has attached to it the "Voucher" or "Label" of the Association certifying that the holder has passed re-examination in First Aid.

(c) If a candidate does not possess such a certificate of proficiency in First Aid he should apply some time before he wishes to sit for examination for a certificate as Master or Mate to the local secretary of an approved Association or other approved body, who will inform him of the available facilities for the instruction and examination of candidates in First Aid.

(d) Besides the courses of instruction which are provided on shore at the ports in the United Kingdom, at which exam- inations for certificates as Master and Mate are held, courses of instruction given by qualified surgeons on board merchant vessels will be accepted by the St. John Ambulance Associa- tion as qualifying the candidate for examination for their certificate of proficiency in First Aid, provided the surgeon certifies that he has followed the syllabus of instruction laid down by the Association.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

(e) The St. Andrew's Ambulance Association will also accept instruction by a ship's surgeon on board ship as qualify- ing a candidate for examination for their certificate of pro- ficiency in First Aid, provided their syllabus is followed. In this case the candidate must previously have enrolled and obtained an attendance card, by applying to the local secre- tary of the Association, or to the head office at 98-108, North Street, Glasgow.

f) It will not be necessary for the candidate for a certi- ficate as Master or Mate in all cases to produce the formal certificate of proficiency in First Aid issued by the Associa- tions. In order to prevent delay in proceeding with the exam- ination for the certificate as Master or Mate and in the issue. of the certificate to successful candidates, the special Mercan- tile Marine linen Certificate issued by the St. John Ambulance Association and duly signed by the Lecturer, the Surgeon Examiner, and the Association's local representative, or, in Scotland, a certificate signed by the Local Examiner of the St Andrew's Ambulance Association, to the effect that the candidate has passed the examination for a certificate of pro- ficiency, may be accepted as showing that the candidate pos- sesses the required knowledge of First Aid.

26. Sight Tests.--(a) Every candidate for a certificate of competency must pass the prescribed sight tests before a certificate can be issued to him. If circumstances render it necessary for him to proceed with the examination in naviga- tion and seamanship before undergoing the sight tests, he should be informed that the examination in navigation and seamanship will be cancelled in the event of his failure to pass either of the sight tests.

(b) Letter test.-Every candidate for a certificate must pass the letter test. If he obtained a certificate of competency before January 1st, 1914, he will only be required to possess half normal vision using both eyes together. Otherwise he must pass a higher standard, viz., normal vision using both eyes or either eye separately.

A candidate who fails to pass the letter test may present himself for re-examination at intervals of three months.

(c) Lantern test. Every candidate must undergo the lantern test on every occasion on which he presents himself for examination for his first certificate of competency; but, if he then passes, he will not be required by the Governor to undergo the lantern test on any subsequent occasion.

No person who holds a certificate of competency should be examined in the lantern test.

(d) A candidate who fails to pass the prescribed form vision test may present himself for re-examination at intervals of three months. A candidate who fails to pass the colour vision test, or who is referred by the local examiner for fur- ther examination, is not allowed to be re-examined locally. In the case of a candidate who is referred for further examina- tion the Governor will make arrangements for a special ex- amination, and it is also open to any candidate who is adjudged to have failed in the local colour vision test, to appeal to the Governor, who may, if he thinks fit, remit the case to a special body of examiners for decision.

(e) When a candidate fails to pass the local colour vision test, the examiner will point out to him the conditions under which he can appeal. Appeals are to be made through the examiner, and forwarded to the Governor with the examiner's remarks.

691

692

?

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

(f) Special Examination: Candidates must attend punc- tually. Candidates who on appeal from the result of the local tests are granted a special examination are notified by the Principal Examiner of the time at which they should attend for special examination and are expected to inform the Prin- cipal Examiner whether or not they will be able to attend at that time. Considerable inconvenience has been caused by candidates informing the Principal Examiner that they will attend at the time stated but failing to keep the appointment. Any candidate who, after informing the Principal Examiner that he will attend, fails to appear at the time appointed, will be liable to have his examination postponed indefinitely.

(g) Failure in Special Examination.-Where, during the course of a special examination, a candidate is found to have a permanent defect in his eyesight such as to render him. unfit for a sea career, he will be finally rejected and will not be allowed to be examined again in the sight tests on any future occasion. This, however, is subject to the proviso that, if the candidate is still dissatisfied, it will be open to him, if he so desires, to present himself for a second special examination on payment of a fee of $50, provided that he brings with him a friend to witness the examination. This second examination will be entirely voluntary, and will form no part of the Governor's examination for a certificate of competency. The Governor will, however, give consideration to the result of such examination in determining whether a certificate shall be granted.

(h) Examinations in the Sight Tests only. The sight tests are open to all persons serving or intending to serve in the Mercantile Marine or in fishing vessels, and all such per- sons are recommended to take the earliest opportunity of ascertaining whether their vision is such as to qualify them for service in that profession. Any such person, if desirous of undergoing the tests, must make application to the Har- bour Master and pay a fee of one dollar.

This fee will be payable on each occasion on which a candidate is examined.

CHAPTER II.

QUALIFICATIONS REQUIRED FOR THE VARIOUS GRADES, INCLUDING SYLLABUSES OF

EXAMINATION.*

27. Value of Certificates. Foreign-going certificates of competency as Master or Mate issued on or after 1st January, 1931, will be valid for use on any mechanically pro- pelled vessel, but they will not entitle the holders to go to sea as Master or Mate of a foreign-going sailing ship unless en- dorsed for that purpose. Candidates who desire a sailing ship qualification can obtain the requisite endorsements to their certificates provided that they can comply with the conditions laid down in rule 56 and pass the necessary examination in seamanship. Holders of "Ordinary" certificates issued prior to 1st January, 1931, are entitled to act in their certified capacities in any vessel however propelled.

28. Date of introduction of revised qualifica- tions. Candidates for certificates of competency who have been examined for and who have failed to obtain a particular

grade of certificate prior to 1st January, 1931, may (subject to the provisions of paragraph 19) be re-examined after that date for the grade of certificate for which they have previously failed without performing any additional sea service. All candidates who undergo their first examination for a particular grade of certificate on or after 1st January, 1931, will be required to qualify under the revised sea service rules.

On and after 1st January, 1931, candidates for all grades of certificate will be examined in accordance with the revised syllabuses contained in these Rules.

CHAPTER III.

RULES FOR ESTIMATING SEA SERVICE.

62. Sea Service.--In these Rules sea service is reckoned from the commencement to the termination of the voyage. The certificates of discharge for service in the foreign trade will generally be accepted as proof of sea service, but certificates of discharge for service in the home or coasting trade must always be sent to the Registrar-General of Shipping and Seamen for verification. Superintendents and Examiners will be careful to see that these discharges have not been in any way tampered with, and will report any suspicious cases to the Registrar-General of Shipping and Seamen. Where service in charge of a watch is required, certificates of watch- keeping service must also be produced (see Appendix 1)).

For all certificates of competency as Master or Mate in the Mercantile Marine, the qualifying service usually required is service performed in ordinary trading vessels. While the Regulations provide for the acceptance in part of certain kinds of non-trading service (e.g., that performed in fishing-boats, yachts, pilot vessels, &c.), non-trading service not specially provided for in the Regulations cannot be accepted as qualify- ing service unless it has been submitted to the Board of Trade and their sanction obtained.

63. Sea service for foreign-going certificates. For foreign-going certificates the term "sea service" means, unless otherwise stated, service performed in foreign-going vessels.

D

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

64. Service in Home Trade.For Home Trade Pas- senger ship certificates, service in the home trade is accepted in full; but for foreign-going certificates it is regarded as only equivalent to two thirds of the time served in the foreign trade.

The amount of service as Master, First Mate or Only Mate in the home which will qualify a candidate for examination for a certificate as Master or First Mate (foreign-going) is shown in rules 38 and 47.

In addition the Governor will be prepared to consider on its merits any application by a candidate for a First Mate's (foreign-going) certificate for the acceptance of time served as Second Mate in the home trade. The acceptance of such service will be subject to the following general considera- tions:-

(a) An adequate proportion of the time must have been spent in actual service at sea, i.e.. outside partially smooth water limits.

(b) The service must have involved real responsibil- ity, and an adequate proportion of it must have been spent in sole charge of a watch at sea. (c) The service must have been performed while in the possession of a certificate as Second Mate (foreign-going).

The Governor will also be prepared to consider on merits applications for the acceptance of time spent as Second Mate in the home trade as qualifying for a Master's (foreign-gomg) certificate, subject to the following conditions:-

(a) The service must have been service in sole charge of a watch at sea and must have been performed while in possession of a certificate as First Mate (foreign-going).

(b) It must have been performed on a foreign-going

agreement.

(c) It must have been performed between ports in the United Kingdom and the Continent of Europe and the distance between the extreme ports visited during the course of the voyage must be at least 500 miles. In no case will coasting service be considered.

In all such cases, the candidate's application should be accompanied by certificates of watch-keeping service signed by the Master (see Appendix D).

The proportion of the time which will be accepted will depend upon the particular circumstances of each case, but in no case will time spent in the home trade be accepted as equivalent to more than two-thirds of the same period of time spent in the foreign trade. Every case in which a candidate claims such services as qualifying must be referred to the Principal Examiner.

Service in a lower grade than Second Mate in the home trade will not be recognised as officer's service towards qualifying a candidate for examination for a foreign-going certificate unless the candidate can produce a testimonial certifying that the service was merely a preliminary to or the finish of a foreign-going voyage and that he served on the foreign voyage in a capacity not lower than the capacity in which he served on the coasting articles.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

65. Service in ships trading abroad.--Service in ships trading entirely abroad will be accepted as equivalent to service in foreign-going ships provided that the distance. between the extreme ports visited during the course of the voyage is at least 500 miles. If the distance is less than 500 miles, the service will only be accepted as equivalent to service in the home trade.

66. Nature of service determined by actual posi- tion on board ship. Sea service, in whatever trade it may be performed, cannot be regarded as qualifying for examina- tion for certificates of competency unless it can be verified by reference to the articles of the ship in which it was per- formed, e.g., service claimed by testimonial or otherwise to have been as mate when the actual rating as shown by the articles was only that of boatswain or other petty officer will not be accepted where officer's service is required.

67. Officer's Service. For the purposes of these Regulations service as First Mate means service as the officer next in seniority to the Master. Service as junior or auxiliary First Mate, or as First Mate under a "Chief Officer," will count as equivalent to service as the second of three watch- keeping officers for qualifying purposes. The facts in each case must be clearly established by the candidate's certificates of watchkeeping service.

For the definition of "watch-keeping service," see

rule 68.

68. Watch-keeping service.

(a) For First Mate. When service in charge of a watch is specified in these Rules, candidates for certificates of competency as First Mate must be able to prove that out of the 18 months' service required at least 15 months have been spend in effective charge of a watch for not less than eight hours out of each 24 hours' service at sea. The remain-

ing three months may be service as Junior of two watch- keeping officers but such time will count only as half its duration for qualifying purposes. The exact nature of a candidate's service must be clearly established by a certificate signed by the Master in the form indicated in Appendix D

(b) For Master. During the whole of the qualifying service between First Mate's and Master's certificates that is specified by these Rules, candidates for a Master's certi- ficate will be required to have served in full charge of a watch for eight hours out of every 24 hours' service at sea. candidate must produce references* from the Master stating clearly that he has had sole charge of a watch for eight hours in each 24 hours' service at sea.

The

No service performed under the system of double watches, except as the senior officer, will be accepted as qualifying service for a certificate of this grade.

69. Service in possession of certificate.-Officer's service, to be recognised as qualifying for purposes of exam- ination, must be performed with the requisite certificate as specified in Appendix C. The officer's service performed by a candidate who has been duly promoted during the course of a voyage (see rule 70) or who, in consequence of serving in vessels plying between ports abroad, has been unable to obtain the necessary certificates, may, however, be recog- nised, provided that it is in other respects satisfactory.

* See Appendix D.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930. 711

70. Promotion during voyage. Whenever a man has, from any cause, been regularly promoted on the occur- rence of a vacancy in the course of the voyage from the rank in which he first shipped, and such promotion, with the ground on which it has been made, is properly entered in the articles and in the Official Log Book, he will receive credit for his service in the higher grade for the period subsequent to his promotion.

71. Mixed Service. Where a candidate has performed his sea service in more than one capacity, or partly in the foreign trade and partly in the home trade, proportionate allowances will be made for each kind of service, provided that in other respects it complies with these Rules.

72. Foreign officers.-Foreign officers who wish to apply for a British certificate of competency must in all cases have performed their qualifying officer's service with the re- quisite British certificate, and must comply with rule 2. The service may have been performed in foreign vessels if the candidate can produce satisfactory testimonials to conduct and character, and is able to prove that the service has been in the required capacities, and that during the period of ser- vice he has held a British certificate of competency of the grade required by the Regulations (see rule 73).

73. Evidence as to service in foreign vessels.-The testimonials of service of foreigners and of British officers and seamen serving in foreign vessels, which cannot be veri- fied by the Registrar-General of Shipping and Seamen, must be confirmed either by the Consul of the country to which the ship in which the candidate served belonged or by some other recognised official authority of that country, or by the testi- mony of some credible person having personal knowledge of the facts required to be established. The production, how- ever, of such proofs will not of necessity be deemed sufficient. Each case will be decided on its own merits, and if the suffi- ciency of the proofs given appears to be at all doubtful, it must be referred to the Principal Examiner of Masters and Mates, who will, if necessary, transmit it to the Governor for decision.

74. Service as carpenter, sailmaker, cook, ste- ward, &c.--Candidates whose service has been performed in capacities other than apprentice, midshipman, cadet, ordinary seaman or able seaman-e.g., men who have served as car- penter, or sailmaker, or as cook in small vessels where cook- ing is only a part of a man's duty-will be required to satisfy the Examiner or the Governor that they have during the whole time claimed performed deck duties in addition to their own particular work. These facts may possibly be proved by the production of satisfactory certificates from the Masters with whom the candidate has served; but such service will only be accepted as equivalent to two-thirds of the time served as ordinary deck hand. Failing satisfactory evidence, the applicant will be required to perform additional service in the capacity of seaman. Service as cook (under other condi- tions than the above), or as steward, or purser, or in the engine room, will not be accepted.

75. Service as Wireless Operator. If a candidate has been engaged on Articles of Agreement as seaman, or in any seaman rating, and has served both as a seaman and as a wireless operator, two-thirds of such service may be counted

}

712

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

as qualifying service; but the candidate must prove that dur- ing the whole period claimed he performed deck duties in addition to the duties of a wireless operator.

If a candidate has been engaged on Articles of Agree- ment as a wireless operator, and has performed deck duties in addition, two-thirds of such service may be counted as qualifying service provided that the candidate can produce a certificate from the Master to the effect that he has performed deck duties throughout the voyage for a reasonable propor- tion of time each day and that he has not spent more than two hours a day on regular wireless watch.

If a candidate has been engaged on Articles of Agreement. as a wireless operator, and has only served as such, one quar- ter of the service may be counted as qualifying service, bui no amount of such service will be allowed to count as more than 12 months' qualifying service.

76. Apprentices. The whole of the time claimed under indentures of apprenticeship will be accepted as actual sea service to qualify under rule 29 for a Second Mate's cer- tificate provided (a) that the indentures have not been can- celled through some fault of the candidate, but are endorsed by the Owner or Master to whom he was bound to the effect that he has performed his service faithfully during the time he remained as apprentice; and (b) that the candidate has served at sea four-fifths of the time claimed, that is to say, has not spent more than one-fifth of the time in home ports."

In cases where an apprentice is qualified for examination before the expiration of his indentures, e.g., where he has had training ship or other sea service prior to being bound, which, together with his actual time as apprentice, makes up the required four years, or where his indentures are for a period of more than four years, a letter from the Owner or Master will be accepted in place of the endorsement referred to above.

In the event of the candidate being short of the required four-fifths of the time claimed as apprentice out of the United Kingdom, he will be required to show sufficient additional sea service, either as seaman or junior officer, to make up the four-fifths of the time claimed.

The above-stated general concession to apprentices can- not, however. be taken to cover a case in which, during a large proportion of the period of apprenticeship, the vessel on which the apprentice is serving has been laid up in a foreign port. The proportion of the period of apprenticeship which can be accepted as qualifying service in such a case is depen- dent on the actual circumstances and each case will be con- sidered on its merits. The Governor is prepared to make as generous an allowance for such service as he properly can, but he is unable to forego the essential condition that candi- dates for certificates of competency must have sufficient ex- perience of actual sea service.

77. Midshipmen and Cadets.-The whole of the time served as midshipman or cadet under indentures will also be accepted subject to the same conditions as those laid down for apprentices; and the same will be the case even when not

* In the case of cable ships the time may be counted in full if two thirds of this period of four-fifths, that is eight-fifteenths of the whole time under indentures, has been spent in service on board the ship out of the United Kingdom and away from the ship's base port (cf. rule 87).

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

bound by indentures, provided that the service as midship- man or cadet has been continuous, that on the date of the termination of the period of service claimed in this capacity the candidate was on Articles of Agreement, and that he is able to comply with the requirements laid down in the matter of serving or making up the four-fifths period at sea during the time claimed.

78. Training ships. Time served after the age of 14 on board a training ship will be allowed to count as equivalent to one-half the same time spent in service at sea, up to a limit of two years (i.e., no length of service will be allowed to count as more than one year at sea) provided that the candi- date can produce a certificate from the Committee or Captain Superintendent that he has conducted himself creditably and passed a good examination in seamanship so far as it is prae- tised in the training ship, as well as in other matters down to the time of his leaving the ship. Training ship service will not be regarded as equivalent to service in square-rigged vessels.

A similar concession is allowed in the case of time spent at the Nautical College, Pangbourne.

79. Shore Schools for nautical training.-Time spent after the age of 14 at a school for Nautical Training conducted on premises ashore may be allowed to count in some proportion, not exceeding one-half, as service at sea provided that:--

(a) The school is recognised under the appropriate Regulations, by the Board of Education, or by the Scottish Education Department, as the case may be;

(b) After an inspection by one of their officers the Board of Trade are satisfied that the school gives a training that justifies time spent there being reckoned as part of the necessary qualifying time for a certificate of competency;

and

(c) The candidate produces a satisfactory certificate as regards conduct and proficiency from the authorities of the school on leaving it.

The schools to which these arrangements may apply are of three kinds :

(i) Schools at which a boy resides and receives train- ing for a period of years: the maximum remis- sion of sea service that will be allowed in res- pect of attendance at such a school will be fixed at the time of approval; it will never exceed 12 months.

(ii) Courses in navigation and seamanship at junior Technical Schools or similar non-residential institutions which boys attend before going to sea: the maximum remission of sea service in these cases will be fixed at the time of approval; it will never exceed six months.

(iii) Senior courses in Navigation at Technical or other similar non-residential Schools which candidates attend after completing the whole or the larger part of the service required to qualify for examination for a Second Mate's Certifi- cate: the maximum remission of sea service in these cases will be fixed at the time of ap- proval; it will never exceed three months.

713

.1

714

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

In the case of schools of classes (ii) and (iii) the certifi- cates which the candidate produces (par. (c) above) must in addition testify to the candidate's continuous and regular at- tendance at all the approved classes, and also, in the case of schools of Class (iii), must state the total number of hours. during which he has attended at the school.

A candidate who at different times has attended two or more approved schools of Nautical Training will be allowed a remission of sea service in respect of attendance at each of them, subject to the condition that the total remission of sea service in respect of attendance at approved schools and training ships will not in any event exceed 12 months.

Time spent at approved schools will not be accepted in lieu of any part of the officer's service required to qualify a candidate for examination for a certificate as First Mate or Master; or in lieu of sea service required in consequence of failure in the oral examination (see rule 18).

A list of approved schools of nautical training is given in Appendix E.

80. Service in Naval Training College. Time spent at the Naval College at Dartmouth will, subject to the con- ditions laid down in rule 79, be permitted to count as equiva- lent to one-half the same time spent in service at sea, and a similar allowance will be made in respect of time spent on courses on shore after promotion to Acting Sub-Lieutenant, subject to the condition that the total remission of sea service in respect of all time spent on shore shall not exceed twelve months. Time spent in shore training will not be accepted in lieu of watchkeeping service.

81. Service in Royal Naval Reserve. Lieutenants. sub-lieutenants, and acting sub-lieutenants of the Royal Naval Reserve who perform sea service on board His Majesty's ships will, if accompanied by a good report. be allowed to count half the time so spent in lieu of qualifying watchkeep- ing service for certificates of competency as Master or First Mate, subject to a maximum allowance of six months for each grade of certificate.

The time spent by Midshipmen in the Royal Naval Re- serve on board sea going vessels of the Royal Navy will, if accompanied by a good report, be accepted in full as qualify- ing sea service for a Second Mate's certificate, subject to a maximum allowance of six months, provided that a reasonable proportion of such time has been spent at sea and that not more than four weeks have been spent on leave.

Service in Harbour ships and shore establishments of the Royal Navy will not be accepted as qualifying service for any grade of certificate.

82. Service in Royal Air Force.--Officers with certi- ficates as Second Mate or First Mate who hold short service commissions in the Royal Air Force will, if accompanied by a good report, he allowed to count towards qualifying sea service for certificates of competency as First Mate or Master respectively half the time spent under instruction in aviation at a flying training school or with a home defence unit and half the time spent in a fleet air arm or naval co-operation unit, up to a maximum of six months in all for each grade of certificate.

G

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930. 715

Apprentices and seamen holding short service commis- sions in the Royal Air Force will, if accompanied by a good report, be allowed to count towards qualifying sea service for a Second Mate's certificate half the time spent under instruc- tion in aviation at a flying training school or with a home defence unit and half the time spent in a fleet air arm or naval co-operation unit up to a maximum of six months in all, provided that the total remission of sea service in respect of R.A.F. service and time spent in a shore training ship or school shall not in any event exceed twelve months.

83. Excursion steamers. In the case of excursion steamers only such service as can be proved to have been performed at sea will be accepted.

84. Service in fishing or pilot vessels.---Service per- formed exclusively in trawlers and other deep sea-fishing vessels, or in pilot vessels, will not qualify a candidate for examination. He must in addition prove the following ser- vice:

(a) For a foreign-going certificate, service for at least 18 months in an ordinary trading vessel in the foreign trade, or the equivalent period, 27 months, in the home or coasting trade.

85. Service in yachts. -Service in pleasure yachts will be accepted as qualifying service under the following condi- tions :-

(a) It must in all cases be verified by satisfactory proofs, which must set forth clearly and in de- tail the nature and duration of the service claimed; and it must be distinctly understood that only actual sea service will be accepted, and that service in harbour or port is inadmis- sible.

(b) Service in foreign-going yachts will be accepted in full; and service performed within home trade limits in sailing yachts of not less than 50 tons net register or in steam vachts of not less than 80 tons gross register will be accepted in the proportion stated in rule 64, but candidates must also show :-(1.) For a foreign-going cer- tificate service for at least 18 months in an or- dinary trading vessel in the foreign trade, or for the equivalent period. 27 months, in an ordinary trading vessel in the home or coasting trade.

86. Service on rivers. --Service performed on rivers, no matter of what size, and service performed within smooth or partially smooth water limits will not be accepted.

Where any doubt whatever exists on this point, the can- didate will be required to produce a certificate from the Mas- ter or Owner of the vessel in which the service was perform- ed, before the acceptance of the service can be considered.

87. Service in cable ships. A candidate. a part of whose qualifying service has been performed in cable ships, will be required to produce, in addition to the usual evidence of sea service, a statement or certificate from the owners of the ship showing the amount of time actually spent at sea. If the time so spent constitutes or exceeds two-thirds of the total

716

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

time on articles, this total time may be accepted in full as qualifying service, but in the event of the actual sea service falling below this proportion, the deficiency must be made up by additional service at sea before the total time on articles can be accepted in full as qualifying service.

88. Service in lightships.-Service in lightships will not be accepted as sea service.

91. No strangers admitted.--No person will be allow- ed in the room during the examination, other than those whose duties require them to be present.

No instructors will be allowed on the premises.

92. Loose paners and books removed. Before commencing the examination, the tables or desks must be cleared of all scraps of paper or books that are not used in the examination.

93. Use of Books and Tables at the examinations. ---The following tables and books will be supplied by the Hong Kong Government at the examination rooms :

Nautical Tables (including logarithm tables) Norie

(full edition), Raper (full edition), Inman (ful edition), Blackburne.

Alt-Azimuth Tables.---Burdwood, Davis.

Admiralty Tide Tables. Parts I and II.

Nautical Almanac.-1929 Abridged Edition

Candidates who wish to use other tables than the above may bring such tables into the examination room, on condition that they submit them to the Examiner before the commence- ment of the examination for scrutiny and approval. These tables must contain no manuscript notes. Subject to the Ex- aminer's approval, no restriction will be placed on the use of any tables, but candidates must understand the theory on which the tables are based and such tables must be capable of giving an answer within the required limits of accuracy (see rule 106). When tables other than those supplied by the Hong Kong Government are used in answering a question, the name of the tables and a note of what is actually obtained from them should be stated on the candidate's paper. Ne

718

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

94. Use of Instruments.--All instruments necessary for use in the examinations are supplied by the Hong Kong Government, but candidates will be allowed to use their own drawing instruments and slide rules provided that the Ex- aminer's approval is obtained before the commencement of the examination

95. Unauthorised books and papers strictly for- bidden. Candidates are prohibited from bringing into the examination room books or papers of any kind whatever, other than mathematical tables. The slightest infringement of this regulation will subject the offender to all the penalties of a failure, and he will not be allowed to present himself for re- examination for a period of three months.

A candidate who uses his own mathematical tables of instruments without first obtaining the permission of the Ex- aminer will be subject to the same penalty.

96. Injury to books, instruments, &c.-If a candi- date defaces, blots, writes in, or otherwise injures any book or form or damages any instrument belonging to the Hong Kong Government, his papers will be retained until he has replaced the damaged book, document or instrument. He will not be allowed to remove the damaged book or document or instrument, and will be subjected to all the penalties of a failure.

97. Leaving room or building. No candidate may leave the examination room without permission and without giving up the paper on which he is engaged. Under no cir- cumstances will a candidate be allowed to leave the building while the examination is proceeding. Violation of this rule will subject the candidate to all the penalties of a failure.

98. Silence. Silence is to be preserved in the examina- tion room.

99. All work to be shown.-No candidate will be allowed to work out his problems on waste paper, or to write on the blotting paper supplied for his use in the examination. Violation of this rule will subject the candidate to all the penalties of a failure.

A sheet of blotting paper should be issued to each can- didate with the first examination paper, and it must be return- ed to the Examiner when the last paper is completed each day. The Examiner will be careful to see that the blotting paper has not been used by the candidate in solving his pro- blems, or for conveying information to other candidates.

100. Copying, &c., to be prevented. Candidates should be so placed as to prevent one copying from another, and no communication whatever between the candidates should be allowed.

101. Penalty for copying, &c. In the event of any candidate being discovered referring to any unauthorised book or paper, or copying.from another, or affording any assistance or giving any information to another, or communicating in any way with another, during the time of examination, or copying any part of the problems for the purpose of taking them out of the examination rooms, he will subject himself to all the penalties of a failure, and will not be allowed to be examined for a period of six months.

Q

C

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

A candidate guilty of a second offence will not be allowed to be examined until 12 months have elapsed.

102. Marking and Conduct of the Written Exami- nation. For his written work the candidate will be fur- nished with sheets of the blank ruled paper which is supplied for the purpose, with instructions that he is to work or write only on one side of the paper, and to answer in a clear and legible hand each of the questions on the paper, and to com- mence each answer by writing in the margin the number of the question to which it relates.

103. Percentage of Marks required for a pass in the written examination. To pass in the written portion, a candidate will be required to obtain 70 per cent of the total marks for all subjects, and he will also be required to obtain a minimum of 50 per cent in each of the following subjects :----

Second Mate. (Foreign-going):

Knowledge of Principles.

Practical Navigation (I and II). Chartwork.

First Mate. (Foreign-going) :

Practical Navigation (I and II).

Chartwork.

Ship Construction and Stability.

Master. (Foreign-going) :

Practical Navigation.

Ship Construction and Stability. Ship's Business.

Compass.

English.

104. Correction by tables. In the Knowledge of Principles paper for Second Mate the corrections by inspec- tion of tables given in some of the works on navigation will not be allowed; every correction must appear on the papers of the candidates.

105. Candidates may use own method. Candidates will be allowed to work out the various problems according to any method they have been accustomed to use, provided such method is correct in principle.

106. Degree of Precision Required.When making calculations for obtaining a ship's position candidates are ex- pected to work to 0 2 of a minute of are and to the nearest second of time.

The method of calculation used in obtaining a position. line should be capable of giving an answer within 0.5 of a

mile.

In calculation of compass errors, bearings and courses, the answer should be worked to within 0.25 of a degree, but in chart work 0.5 of a degree is sufficient.

In calculating the correction to apply to soundings the candidate is not required to work to the exact inch, as is sometimes done. It will be sufficient if he brings his answer within half a foot or so of a precise result.

107. Compass deviation.-In answering questions on the tentative method of compass adjustment, the candidate will be tested by Beall's Compass Deviascope.

108. Sextant. --Particular attention should be paid to the sextant, the examination in which will be conducted orally and practically. Every candidate will be required to measure both vertical and horizontal angles, and will be examined practically as to his knowledge of the adjustments and the use of the various screws; he must be able to read correctly on and off the arc, and must also be able to find the index error both by the horizon and by the sun.

109. Rule of the Road. In the examination on Rule of the Road the Examiner's duty will be to test the candidate's knowledge of the sense and intention of the Articles of the Collision Regulations. Mere

      Mere ability to repeat the Articles word for word will not suffice to ensure the candidate's pass- ing, nor will the lack of it necessarily entail failure provided the Examiner is satisfied that the candidate grasps the full significance, content, and practical application of the Articles. Examiners will ask for the content of the Articles not by their number, but by the subject with which they deal, and they will discourage the use by candidates of verses as aids to memorising the Articles. Examiners will not place a can- didate for a steamship certificate in the position of handling a sailing ship, but will lay stress on the candidate's ability to recognise a sailing ship's lights and on his knowledge of a sailing ship's possible manoeuvres according to the direction

of the wind.

110. No candidate to be examined in successive weeks.-A candidate will not be allowed to undergo examina- tion for the same grade of certificate twice in successive weeks, unless, under very special and urgent circumstances, the Examiner should see fit to relax this rule.

111. Penalty for breach of rules. Any candidate violating any of the regulations, or being guilty of insolence to the Examiner, or of disorderly or improper conduct in or about the room, will render himself liable to the postpone- ment of his examination, or, if he has passed, to the detention of his certificate for such period as the Governor may direct.

APPENDIX A.

EXAMINATION IN SIGNALLING.

The examination in Signalling, in all cases in which it is required for a certificate of competency, will consist of an examination in the International Code, the Allied Signal Manual, Morse Flashing, and Semaphore.

The examination in Signalling should in all cases and for all. grades consist of an examination in the International Code, the Allied Signal Manual, Morse Flashing and Semaphore.

International Code.-Examiners are recommended to frame the examination in the International Code of Signals, upon the instruc- tions and illustrations given at the commencement of Parts I. and II. of the Signal Book. The information there given will be found sufficient to indicate all the characteristics of the Code.

1

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

By the form of the hoist, an observer can at sight understand the nature of any signal he sees flying; the examination should, therefore, tend to elicit a clear knowledge of all the distinctive features of the Code.

With this object in view, the Exammers should question the candidates as to the distinguishing forms of the respective hoists, which will be indicated according as a burgee, a pennant, or a square flag is uppermost, and also with regard to the number of flags, and the position of the Code flag when used in the hoist; making the 1, 2, 3 and 4 flag signals with the flags supplied for the purpose, and vary- ing the signals made, showing 2 and 3 flag signals, with and without the Code flag included, or a Geographical or a Vocabulary signal, the name of a merchant ship or of a ship of war.

As the two latter signals would not be found in the Signal Book, the candidate should know where to find them and how to look them out.

The candidate should:---(a) Be able to read a signal at sight, so far as to name the flags composing the hoist. (b) Know the use of the Code pennant and of the pennants C and D, "Yes" and "No", also of the two burgees A and B, and the square flags S and P, and the flags used to indicate cholera, plague, &c., on board, and the quarantine flag. (e) Be required to signal some word or words not included in the vocabulary of the Code either by letters or by the Spelling Table (page 516) or both. (d) Have a knowledge of the Distant Signals, and of their object, and the different modes of signalling therewith. (e) Know the special Morse signals indicated by certain letters as given on page 550." (f) Have a good knowledge of the Distress Signals and understand the penalty which may be in- curred by their improper use.

The International Code is used on board His Majesty's ships, and it has been adopted by all the principal Maritime Powers for their public as well as merchant ships.

Allied Signal Manual.---Candidates will be expected to know the meaning of any or all of the single flag signals given therein, and the signification of the Pilot Jack when incorporated in They should also be required to make or read from the Pilot Jack table a hoist given by the Examiner. Candidates need not be ex- pected to commit the Pilot Jack table to memory, but there should be no hesitation whatever in making or reading a signal. They should also know how to recognise any of the Special Signals given in the Allied Signal Manual.

Morse Flashing and Semaphore.-Candidates for the voluntary examination in signalling will be required to attain a minimum speed of 12 words a minute in semaphore and 10 words a minute in Morse flashing (the average length of a word being taken as 5 letters).

Candidates for other certificates will only be required to attain a speed of 6 words a minute in Morse flashing and 8 words a minute in Semaphore.

In the ordinary examination, it will be sufficient if in Morse flashing a candidate is given a test card and a spelling message of 10 words, and in Semaphore a spelling message of 25 words.

The Morse flashing test will be a test message (see Allied Signal Manual), followed by a spelling message of 25 words.

In the voluntary examination in signalling, the Semaphore test will be a spelling message of 50 words.

The candidate must attain a degree of accuracy of at least 90 per cent both in making and reading in each method, i.e., Flashing and Semaphore.

In the examination in Morse flashing the candidate should be first required to make a test message, followed by a spelling message of 25 words. The Examiner should then make a test message, followed by a spelling message of 25 words to be read by the candidate.

722

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

The same procedure must be observed in the Semaphore exami- nation, except that, as a test message is not given, the candidate will be required to make a spelling message of 50 words and then to read a message of 50 words made by the Examiner. The Sema- phore messages may be made either by hand flags or mechanical Semaphore, or both, at the discretion of the Examiner.

In the Morse flashing examination, marks will be allotted for the test message in the proportion of 50/78 of a mark for each cor- rect letter (see table at back of test cards), and for the spelling message 2 marks for each correct word or group of figures. The candidate must for a pass gain an aggregate of at least 90 per cent of the maximum marks in both spelling and test messages.

In the Semaphore examination 2 marks will be allotted for each correct word and 90 per cent of the maximum must be obtained for a pass.

The spelling message is left to the discretion of the examiner, and may be a passage from any book or newspaper in English. When the passage contains figures and the candidate does not choose to spell them out, the examiner should see that the proper signs are made before and after the figures.

The message as read by the candidate should be taken down by another candidate where possible, otherwise by a clerk, or other per- son according as the examiner may deem expedient.

Candidates should be thoroughly tested in the various signs and the procedure of calling up, sending and answering a signal, as laid down in the Allied Signal Manual, and this course should always be strictly adhered to

Particular attention should be paid by examiners to the accu rate spacing of the Morse signs, and to the intervals between letters and words, and also to the correct making of the Semaphore sigus Any attempted increase of speed at the expense of accuracy shoulà be discouraged.

The block letter test and spelling message as read by the candi date should be forwarded on the Form Exn. 19, together with the percentage of marks allotted and report on the Form Exn. 196 to the Principal Examiner, with any remarks the examiner may have to add with respect to the examination

Note.-The International Code of Signals, with the Signal Letters of British Ships, is prepared by the Registrar-General of Shipping and Seamen, and may be obtained of the publishers, Messrs. Spot- tiswoode, Ballentyne & Co., 1, New Street Square, London, E.C.4, and the principal booksellers at the various ports, price 25s.

The Official Mercantile Navy List and Maritime Directory may be obtained in iike manner, price 25s.

The Allied Signal Manual may be obtained through any book- seller, or directly from H M. Stationery Office, price 18.

The attention of candidates is drawn to the fact that the Ad- miralty, after consultation with the Board of Trade, have established Signal Schools at London. Liverpool, South Shields. Southampton and Cardiff, where candidates for certificates of com- petency can obtain instruction in signalling free of charge.

APPENDIX B.

SIGHT TESTS.

DETAILS AS TO THE CONDUCT OF THE TESTS.

These tests must be conducted under the strict personal super- vision of the Examiner A careful record must be kept of all mis- takes made by the candidate both in the Letter test and in the Lantern test.

0

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

Each Examiner must keep a record of all candidates passed by hun for reference when required.

Spectacles not allowed.-During the examination in the sight tests candidates must not be allowed to use spectacles or glasses of any kind, or any other artificial aid to vision.

1.-LETTER TEST.

1. Letter test to be passed first. The first test which the can- didate is required to undergo is the letter test, and until he has passed this test he must not be allowed to proceed further with the examination.

2. Apparatus used.-The letter test to be used for all candidates' is that conducted on Snellen's principle by means of sheets of letters.

3. Object of the test.-The object of the letter test is to determine whether the candidate can reach a sufficient standard of visual acute- ness, or, in other words, to find out whether his eyesight is good or bad.

4. Standard of vision required.-Every candidate for a first certi- ficate of competency will be required to possess normal vision. With the exceptions indicated below (see paragraph 7), every candidate for a second or higher certificate will be required to possess norinal vision.

"Normal vision" is defined, for the purpose of these Regulations, as ability to read correctly nine of the twelve letters in the sixth line and eight of the fifteen letters in the seventh line of a test sheet placed in a good light at a distance of 16 feet from the eye.

The candidate will have the option of using either eye separately or both eyes together.

5. Method of testing. The test sheets should be hung on the wall, in a good light, but not in direct sunlight, at a height of five or six feet from the ground. The candidate should be placed at a distance of exactly 16 feet from the sheets, and exactly opposite them. This distance should be cart fully measured, and should never in any circumstances be varied.

One of the sheets should then be exposed, and the candidate should be asked to read the letters on each sheet, beginning at the top and going downwards. Any mistakes which he makes should be carefully noted. If then it is found that he has read correctly at least nine letters in the sixth line and eight letters in the seventh line of a sheet, the candidate may be considered to have normal vision, and should be marked "passed" in the appropriate column of the form of application (Exn. 2 or Exn. 2A, as the case may be).

6. Passing or failure.--If at the conclusion of the test the candi- date is found to reach the required standard, he may be considered to have passed, and the Examiner should proceed with the lantern test. If the candidate fails to reach the standard required for the certificate entered for, he should be tested with at least four sheets, and the Examiner should fill in a Form Exn. 17b, and should forward it with any remarks be may wish to make, to the Principal Examiner for his instructions as to whether the candidate is to be regarded as passing or as failing in the letter test.

Failure to pass the letter test is due to some defect in form vision, and the Governor is advised that such defects are sometimes curable Whenever, therefore, a candidate fails to pass this test the Examiner should advise him to consult an ophthalmic surgeon with a view to ascertaining what is the nature of the defect in his form vision, and whether it is curable.

7. Lower standard required in certain cases.--Candidates who are in possession of certificates obtained before January 1st, 1914. may be regarded as passing the letter test if they can read correctly with both eyes at least five of the eight letters in the fifth line of a test sheet.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

8. Tests to be varied.--The Examiner should take care, by vary- ing the order of the test sheets and by every other means in his power, to guard against the possibility of any deception on the part of the candidate.

II. LANTERN TEST.

9. Apparatus.-A special lantern and a mirror have been pro- vided for this test. The lantern should be placed directly in front of the mirror, so that the front part of the lantern is exactly ten feet from the mirror. Care should be taken that the lantern is pro- perly placed, that is to say, the lights reflected in the mirror must show clearly when viewed from the position of the candidate on the left of the lantern. The Examiner should always satisfy himself that these conditions are fulfilled before commencing the examination.

10. Darkness adaptation.-It is essential that a candidate should be kept in a room which is either completely or partially darkened for at least a quarter of an hour before he is required to undergo this test.

Before the examination commences the Examiner must satisfy himself that the room in which it is conducted is so darkened as to exclude all daylight.

11. Method of testing.-The lantern supplied for the examination is so constructed as to allow one large or two small lights to be visible, and is fitted with 12 glasses of three colours-red, white and green. At the commencement of the examination the Examiner should show to the candidate a series of lights through the large aperture, and should require him to name the colours as they appear to him. Care should be taken in showing the white light to emphasise the fact that this light is not a pure white. If a candidate inakes a mistake of calling this light "red," a proper red light should be shown immediate- ly after and the candidate's attention directed to the difference between the two.

After a series of lights through the large aperture has been shown the Examiner should make a complete circuit with the two small apertures, requiring the candidate to name the colours of each set of two lights from left to right. To prevent any possibility of the order in which the lights are arranged from being learnt, the Examiner should at least twice in each circuit go back a varying number of colours.

A record of any mistakes made with either the large aperture or the two smaller apertures should be kept on Form Exn. 17b in accordance with the instructions thereon. In all such cases the mis- takes made by a candidate in the letter test should also be recorded on the form.

12 Passing or failure.If a candidate with either the large aperture or the two smaller apertures of the lantern mistakes red for green or green for red, he should be considered to have "failed" in the lantern test.

If the only mistake made by the candidate with the lantern is to call the white light "red, and if after his attention has been specially directed to the difference between the two he makes no further mistake of this nature, he should be considered to have passed in the lantern test.

If a candidate makes any other mistake with the lantern, i.c., if he calls white "red" repeatedly or red "white" at all, or confuses green and white, his case should be submitted to the Principal Examiner Masters and Mates and he should be told that the decision as to whether he is passed or failed, or a further examination is necessary will be communicated to him in due course. Pending the receipt of the Principal Examiner's instructions such a candidate should only be allowed to proceed with the remainder of the examina- tion for a Certificate of Competency on the express understanding that the latter examination will be cancelled in the event of failure in the Sight Tests.

13. Further examination and appeals.-If in the cases covered by the preceding paragraph the Principal Examiner decides that a further examination is necessary, arrangements will be made for a special examination to be held. (See rule 26).

1

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 24, 1930.

If, however, on the report of the local Examiner the Principal Examiner decides that the nature of the mistakes made shows con- clusively that a candidate's sight is so defective as to render him. unfit to hold a certificate, the candidate shall be considered to have failed.

725

દી

In cases where, upon the report of the local Examiner, candidate is failed by the Principal Examiner, as well as in the cases covered by paragraph 12, the Governor will be prepared to allow an examination, subject to the conditions set out rule 26. In no circumstances may a candidate who fails to pass the lantern test be re-examined locally.
