COLONIAL SECRETARY'S Department.

No. 21. The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the

21.-The 4th day of January, 1928, to enquire into the circumstances attending the collision. between the British Steamships Kwong Fook Cheong and On Lee, is published for general information.

13th January, 1928.

E. R. HALLIFAX,

Colonial Secretary.

FINDING.

We find that about 6 a.m. on the 24th December, 1927, the S.S. On Lee Official No. 127007 of Hong Kong of which Mr. Adroaldo Fernandes (Certificate of Competency as Master (River Trade) No. 3952 of Hong Kong) was Master when on a voyage from Wangmun to Kwongmun overtook the S.S. Kwong Fook Cheong Official No. 152106 of Hong Kong of which Mr. John McNab Morren (Certificate of Competency as Master No. 4256 of Hong Kong) was Master.

    That on the On Lee forging ahead on the port bow of the Kwong Fook Cheong the latter's bows were sucked in towards the On Lee causing her Port bow to come into collision with the Starboard quarter of the On Lee and causing slight damage.

    We find that the On Lee was to blame in that she passed too close (when abeam) to the Kwong Fook Cheong.

    We find that Mr. David Bousfield (Certificate of Competency as Extra Master No. 026476 of London, who was Officer of the watch of the S.S. On Lee at the time wast absent from the bridge at the time of the collision without having been properly relieved, for which very grave offence we adjudge that his Certificate of Competency as Extra Master be suspended for one year and that a Certificate of Competency as 1st Mate (Foreign Going) be issued to him for that period.

    Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hong Kong, this 4th day of January, 1928.

HARBOUR MASTER'S DEPARTMENT.

Notice to Ship Owners and Master Mariners.

    No. 157. In the interests of safety of life at sea, the General Post Office with the concurrence of the Board of Trade has authorised the fitting on board ships registered in the United Kingdom of an approved automatic apparatus which will respond to a special signal called the Alarm Signal. That signal, used in conjuction with the Distress. Signal (S.O.S.), will actuate the automatic apparatus which will summon an operator by means of a call-bell, and ships so fitted will in effect be able to maintain a constant watch at sea for distress purposes even although they may carry only one operator.

    2. In view of the fact that certain ships which trade abroad and do not normally call at ports in the United Kingdom will be equipped with the auto-alarm device while abroad, and, as the installation of such apparatus permits in certain circumstances a reduction of the number of wireless operators or watchers carried on board, the Board of Trade deem it necessary that when so equipped such ships should be inspected imme- diately in order to ensure that their requirements are being complied with.

3. In the circumstances, the Postmaster-General considers that it will suffice, in a ship is newly equipped with an auto-alarm at a Colonial port, if verifica- tion of the fact can be obtained by a visit to the ship; for the ship's wireless operator to demonstrate to the visiting official by means of the tests described in Rule 14 of the Merchant Shipping (Wireless Telegraphy) Rules, 1927.

    4. Application should be made to the Harbour Master for the inspection of auto- alarms fitted at this port, and any failure of the device should be reported to him for the information of the Board of Trade and of the General Post Office.

QUESTIONS.

7. The Hon. Sir HENRY E. POLLOCK, Kt., K.C., pursuant to notice, asked the follow-

ing questions:-

1. What information can the Government lay before this Council as to the steps which are being taken in connection with the construction of the new reservoir in the Aberdeen Valley?

2. What steps is the Government taking by leaflets or notices to instruct householders and others as to the imperative necessity of conserving the water supply of this Colony? Why cannot printed notices, in English and Chinese, be sent out to householders periodically? Is it not possible that some economy in consumption might be effected by reducing the amount of the free allowance of water to house- holders?

3. In connection with the answer given to the IIonourable Mr. Bernard at the last Meeting of this Council to the effect that the Imperial Government was contributing £100,000 towards the Kai Tak Aerodrome, what is the estimated sum of money which the Hong Kong Government will have to contribute towards the cost of such aerodrome?

96

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, MARCH 30, 1928.

The Colonial Secretary replied as follows:-

1. A Sessional Paper No. 10 of 1927 on this subject has been issued

and was laid on the table on the 22nd last.

The Secretary of State has been asked by despatch dated 30th Jan- uary, 1928, to give early sanction for this scheme, which, it is proposed, to charge to Loan Account. The approval of the Secre- tary of State is now being awaited.

2. The Government has hitherto taken no such steps except on occasions of great urgency. Notices in English and Chinese could be printed and distributed to house-holders periodically, but it is not con- sidered that the result of such action would justify the cost of printing and distribution.

Arrangements will however be made for the publication from time to time in the newspapers of the Colony of notices drawing atten- tion to the importance of avoiding waste of water.

Some economy in consumption would result from the reduction or abolition of the free allowance of water, though it is doubtful whether the saving would be sufficient to justify the extra burden on the community. The question will be further considered.

3. The estimated cost of forming the Aerodrome site adjoining Kowloon

Bay is as follows:-

(a) Resumption of area from the Kai Tak

Development Co....

$1,001,250.00

(b) Resumption of Lands and Properties

185,000.00

(e) Completion of Reclamation including

surfacing, etc.....

738,000.00

(d) Covering Nullahs, Road Construction

and forming Camber..

605,000.00

$2,529,250.00

The above total estimated cost, $2,529,250.00 represents the cost of acquiring, forming and completing the Aerodrome site and does not include the cost of Buildings, Offices, Air-craft sheds, work- shops and contingent works.

Hon. Sir Henry E. Pollock: Arising out of the answer to the last question, can the Hon. Director of Public Works inform us what is the estimated cost of the buildings, offices, aircraft sheds, work- shops and contingent works?

His Excellency the Governor: I am afraid it will hardly be possible for the Hon. Director of Public Works to reply as the scheme for rebuilding has not yet been made. It is under consideration and we shall have to obtain the advice of the Air Ministry.

QUESTIONS.

5. The Hon. Sir HENRY E. POLLOCK, Kt., K.C., pursuant to notice, asked the follow-

ing questions:-

1. Will the Government consider the advisability of making representa- tions to the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Colonies with reference to the constitution of this Council being amended in order to permit of Kowloon being represented on this Council?

2. If the construction of a public pier at the end of Nathan Road is impracticable, will the Government favourably consider the erection of a public pier at the end of Jordan Road?

3. Will the Government state what steps it is prepared to take in order to meet the desires of the Kowloon Residents' Association in regard to the improvement of traffic regulation in the vicinity of the Star Ferry Wharf at Kowloon?

4. With a view to the increase of public bathing facilities in the Colony,

will the Government

(i) Put up additional bathing cubicles, and pavilion accom-

modation, for the use of the public, at Repulse Bay?

(ii) Put up bathing cubicles, and a pavilion, for the use of the public, at the Bay near Stanley where private bath- ing matsheds have already been erected?

in

5. Will the Government, (in accordance with the recommendations of the Bathing Beaches Committee contained in Sessional Paper No. 12 of 1926), expend a sum, then estimated at $7,115, with an annual wages bill for boatmen and coolies of $560 for the season, pro- viding bathing cubicles, a shelter or pavilion, sanitary conveniences, boats, buoys, rafts, fresh water, etc., at Ch'eung Sha Bay, which is on the motor road a few miles nearer to Kowloon than Castle Peak Bay?

6. Will the Government take steps to enable the residents of Kowloon Tong to have a sufficient water-supply for the flush closet system, which system has been installed in their houses in accordance with the original building scheme?

152

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, APRIL 27, 1928.

7. Will the Government utilize one of the strips of Government land abutting on Salisbury Road as a play-ground for Kowloon children? Will the Government also inquire into the possibility of various unbuilt-on pieces of land abutting on Nathan Road being tem- porarily used for the purposes of children's play-grounds?

8. Will the Government consider the advisability of a simple granite Memorial being erected on the Praya Wall, between Queen's Pier and the Star Ferry Wharf, in order to commemorate the fact that the late Sir Paul Chater was the originator of two important Reclamations on the South side of the Harbour, namely, one from the Royal Naval Yard Westward to West Point, and the other from the Royal Naval Yard Eastward to East Point?

The Colonial Secretary replied as follows:-

1. His Excellency the Governor proposes to discuss the question of the composition of the Legislative Council with the Secretary of State during his approaching visit to England.

2. The provision of a public pier at the end of Nathan Road is impracti-

cable.

The construction of a vehicular and passenger ferry pier at the end of Jordan Road is under consideration and until the ques- tions concerning the proposed vehicular ferry have been decided, no further answer can be given.

3. A comprehensive scheme has been prepared for the lay out of the area in the vicinity of the Star Ferry Wharf at Kowloon with a view to improved traffic regulation.

4.

It has been prepared to meet as far as possible the desires of the Kowloon Residents' Association whose proposals have received due consideration.

The scheme will be made public in a sessional paper in due

course.

(i) At present 15 cubicles (10′0′′ × 6′ 0′′) are being erected at Repulse Bay with fresh water showers, water stand pipes, etc. 10 are for men and 5 for women.

No provision is being made for a pavilion.

(ii) The beach at Stanley has been fully allocated; two or three additional sheds might be erected on the higher ground above the beach, but this site is not considered suitable.

No public bathing cubicles or pavillion are being erected

and no funds are provided for this purpose.

5. Funds are not available at present for the suggested works at Ch'eung

Sha Bay.

6. On the 25th September, 1924, the Honourable Mr. Montague Ede raised in Executive Council the question of the water supply of the Kowloon Tong settlement. He put forward proposals for the con- struction of a reservoir to supply the settlement with water for a water flushing system and for the trees, gardens, lawns, etc. which were essential to the scheme. The then Director of Public Works pointed out that these proposals were uneconomical and said that the settlement would be supplied in due course from the Shing Mun Waterworks. Mr. Ede, however, pressed his point, and after dis- cussion the Governor in Council agreed that he should be allowed to construct a reservoir for the Kowloon Tong scheme on the clear understanding that the Government took no responsibility in the matter and assumed no liabilities in respect of it. In these circum- stances it is clear that, if the existing water supply to the Kowloon

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, APRIL 27, 1928.

153

Tong scheme is defective, the blame for such defect rests on the Kowloon Tong Estate Company, which should take steps to remedy it by negotiating with the Government for connection with the Shing Mun Waterworks.

7. Pending its use by the Government for other purposes, a small area can be reserved as a children's playground at the junction of Salis- bury and Middle Roads. There is, however, in the opinion of the Government, no area at Tsimshatsui which is really suitable for permanent reservation as a children's playground: and none of the undeveloped area adjoining Nathan Road appears to be suitable for conversion to children's playgrounds.

8. The question of a memorial to Sir C. P. Chater is in the hands of a representative Committee whose plans originally included a Statue for which Government was prepared to grant a site. It is under- stood that the idea has been abandoned in favour of the endowment of scholarships at the University: but if the Committee desire a memorial of the nature suggested in the question, Government is still prepared to consider the grant of a suitable site.

The Hon. Sir HENRY E. POLLOCK, Kt., K.C., requested leave to put the following

supplementary question:-

Does the Government consider that the bathing facilities mentioned in

the answer to question 4 (i) are adequate?

His Excellency the Governor replied that the notice of this question was re-

quired.

6. The Hon. Mr. JOHN OWEN HUGHES, pursuant to notice, asked the following

questions :-

1. What information can the Government lay before the Council as to

the partially prepared site for the new prison situated in Kowloon Bay?

2. What are the daily average of prisoners in 1927 in :

(a) Victoria Gaol.

(b) Lai Chi Kok Gaol.

3. Does the Government consider these prisons to be overcrowded?

yes, when is it proposed to proceed with increased accommodation?

4. If

The Colonial Secretary replied as follows:-

1. The Work on the new gaol at Ngau Shi Wan was suspended after a meeting on the site of members of both Executive and Legislative Councils with His Excellency.

The site adjoins the Airport site at Kowloon Bay and will be required in connection with the development of that project and will not be used for the construction of a Prison.

2.-(a) 774.

(b) 415.

3. Victoria Gaol is overcrowded.

Lai Chi Kok Gaol is not overcrowded. Chi Kok can hardly be called a prison.

On the other hand Lai There is no cellular

accommodation and little opportunity for employing the prisoners on labour.

154

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, APRIL 27, 1928.

No. 226.-It is notified for general information that as from 30th April, 1928, and until the structural alterations to the present offices are completed the Colonial Secretariat will occupy the 3rd floor of the Banque de l'Indo-Chine, French Building, Queen's Road.

No. 227. The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 4th and 5th April, 1928, to enquire into the circumstances attending the collision between the British Steamship Taming and the Lighter Katonah, is published for general information.

27th April, 1928.

E. R. HALLIFAX,

Colonial Secretary.

FINDING.

The Court finds that the S.S. Taming Official No. 118366 of London, 1,356 tons nett register, the Master of which was George Mills who holds a certificate of Competency as Master No. O.C. 021335, was bound to Hong Kong on a voyage from Canton on the 28th March, 1928.

The ship was on an Easterly course heading for the Kap Sing Mun pass at a speed of 10 knots, having just emerged from a heavy rain squall off Castle Peak Bay.

The Tug Katonah 18 tons with the steel lighter Vermont 384 tons in tow alongside on her port side, was proceeding from Hong Kong to Canton on a westerly course at a speed of about 33 knots and had just cleared the Northern entrance to the Kap Sing Mun pass.

Both the latter vessels are American owned, licensed in Hong Kong and in charge of Chinese.

   When in the vicinity of Brothers Point, shortly after midnight, and close to the Northern shore the Vermont and the Taming came into collision resulting in material. damage to the Taming.

The Court is of the opinion that the circumstances did not justify a deviation from the express enactment as to keeping on the starboard side of the channel and finds that:

1. The non-observance by the Master of the Taming of Article 25 of the Colli-

sion Regulations, contributed to the collision,

2. The Tug Katonah disobeyed Article 3 of the Collision regulations relating

to side lights.

3. The Vermont disobeyed Article 5 of the Collision Regulations relating to

side lights.

4. The Coxswain of the Katonah made an incorrect signal in giving one long

blast contrary to Article 15 of the Collision Regulations.

5. A proper lookout was not kept in Katonah.

   The Court records its opinion that vessels of the tonnage of the Katonah and Vermont should not be allowed to proceed to foreign ports in charge of persons whose evidence showed them to be insufficiently qualified for such positions.

   The Court decides that the circumstances attending this casualty do not call for any action with regard to the certificates of the Master or Officers of the Taming.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JUNE 1, 1928.

No. 322. *

ROYAL OBSERVATORY, HONG KONG.

Notice to Mariners.

     1. In their Circular No. 403 the Marconi International Maritime Communication Company have authorized their operators to send weather reports to the Royal Observa- tory, Hong Kong, and shipmasters are earnestly requested to co-operate in the forecasting and storm-warning work of the Observatory, by arranging for meteorological observa- tions to be made in accordance with the programme given below, and transmitted by the wireless operator without delay.

    2. The accuracy and utility of the Observatory forecasts will increase in proportion to the number of ships cooperating, the accuracy of the observations, and the promptness. with which they are despatched. In the interest of shipping, therefore, every master possessing a radio-telegraphic installation should send observations at the hours stated, namely, at 0300, 0600, 0900 and 2200 G.M.T., and endeavour to make the service as efficient as possible.

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

4. In this revised circular corrected readings of the barometer are requested, in order to bring merchant ships into line with the larger ships of H.M. Navy, which are supplied with barometers having "Gold" Scales, for readily obtaining the barometric pressure at sea level, the freezing point of water, and normal gravity.

    It is very important that a few readings (at least four) of the barometer used for the wireless messages should be taken in Hong Kong and forwarded to the Observatory for comparison with the Standard.

    5. It is requested that when within range of Cape d'Aguilar, (Call sign V.P.S.: Latitude 22° 12′ 39′′ N. and Longitude. 114° 15′ 19′′ E.) the Captain will arrange for observations to be made at 0300, 0600, 0900 and 2200 G.M.T. and for a message, prepared by the observer, to be handed to the operator for transmission, containing the following information :-

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

19

(b.) Barometer reading corrected for index error, and reduced to 32° F. sea level, and gravity at latitude 45°; adding "steady", "rising' or "falling".

If an aneroid barometer is used its readings need only be corrected for

index error and reduced to sea level.

(c.) Temperature of the air.

(d.) Wind direction and force; adding "steady", "veering" or "backing". (e.) State of Sea.

(f.) State of weather (in plain language) "fine" meaning sky less than

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JUNE 1, 1928. 219

In no circumstances will the operator write these messages.

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

  7. All messages handed in under the above conditions shall be dealt with as follows:-

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

shall receive priority as Government messages.

Wherever possible, each message shall be repeated.

8. All messages shall be treated free of coast tax, ship tax, and land charges.

  9. Reports handed in for transmission written on any form other than on the message form numbered SI, shall be affixed to a message form SI in such a manner as not to cover the space reserved for service instructions and other data.

10. From 1928, June 1, continuous watch on 600 and 2400 metres will be kept by V.P.S. Reply to messages on 2400 metres will be on 2800 metres, CW, unless I.C.W. is requested. Ships fitted with C.W. are requested to use the 2400-2800 metre service if the 600 metre service is busy.

The information broadcast by the Royal Observatory, Hong Kong, is as follows:-

1. Meteorological observations from various stations in the Far East, followed by a Weather Report and Forecast, will be broadcast by V.P.S., on 600 metres, at 0400 and 1200 G.M.T. A repetition of the 0400 message will be made by V.P.S. on 2800 metres I.C.W. at 0500, and of the 1200 message on 2000 metres I.C.W. immediately following the 1300 time-signal.

The Weather Reports and Forecasts will also be broadcast by G.O.W. on 300 metres telephony, at 0548 and 1148 G.M.T.

The names of the observing stations included in the morning and evening broadcasts are given below, together with the code letters of each station.

As it has been found impossible to secure complete synchronism, the morning barometer readings will be reduced approximately to 2200 and the afternoon observations to 0600 G.M.T.

From the 1st July, 1928, the first two letters of each group will indicate the station.

The first four figures of each group will give the barometer reduced to 32° F., sea level, and gravity at 45°. The fifth and sixth figures the tempera- ture of the air in degrees Fahrenheit, the seventh and eighth the temperature of evaporation, the ninth and tenth the direction of the wind (00= North; 04 East; 08=South; 12= West) the eleventh the force of the wind on the Beaufort scale, 9 meaning 9 or above. The twelfth the weather according to the following code (Code III of the International Code)

0 fine; blue sky or detached clouds. 1-Cloudy.

2 Overcast.

3-Fog or mist.

5 Passing showers. 6-Rain or drizzle.

7-Snow or sleet.

8 Hail, or rain and hail.

No. 366.

Portuguese Company of the Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps.

Portuguese enlisting in the Portuguese Company of the. Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps will not be regarded as having in any way renounced their status as Portuguese subjects. A Portuguese Volunteer will, however, on enlistment have to take the oath of allegiance as set out in the second schedule of Ordinance No. 2 of 1920, thereby binding himself to be faithful and bear true allegiance to His Majesty King GEORGE, in accordance with the provisions of the Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Ordi- nance, 1920, and of the rules which may be in force thereunder from time to time. Accordingly, for purposes of the Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps and while on duty with the Corps, a Portuguese Volunteer will be regarded as having the same status as all other Volunteers who are British subjects; but he will not be asked to renounce his Portuguese nationality, nor will his status as a Portuguese subject, apart from his duty to the Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps, be in any way questioned.

No. 384.-With reference to Government Notification No. 487 of 26th of August, 1927, published in the Hong Kong Government Gazette of the 26th of August, 1927, it is hereby notified that the treaty of Friendship, Commerce and Navigation of the 16th of October, 1884, between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Paraguay will con- tinue in force for a period of twelve months from the 25th of February, 1928, or until the conclusion of a new Treaty which is being negotiated if it is concluded within that period.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 6, 1928.

   No. 385. The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 26th June and 3rd July, 1928, to investigate the circumstances attending the stranding and sinking of the British Steamship Kochow, is published for general information.

FINDING.

The S. S. "Ko Chow", Official No. 137695 Hong Kong was, on 9th Jure, 1928, on a voyage from Hong Kong to Wuchow via ports. Her draft was 9' 5" for'd and 10′ 6′′ aft. The master was David Morgan holding a certificate of competency as Master No. 565 issued in Australia.

The mate was William Claude Cyril Becks holding a certificate as mate of a River Steamer issued at Hong Kong.

   The ship left Hong Kong at about 5.30 p.m. with a cargo consisting mainly of rice, flour and salt fish stowed in the holds and on the main deck and also a large number of Chinese passengers on the main and saloon decks.

   At about 10.30 p.m. the ship was approaching the Wang Mun Bar. The mate was on watch taking soundings and an un-certificated Chinese pilot was in charge of the navigation. The Master was in his cabin.

The speed of the ship at the time 'was about 71⁄2 knots and the strength of the cur- rent about five knots across the course. The ship took the ground and listed heavily to port with the result that water entered through the cargo doors and the ship sank.

   The passengers and crew were eventually taken off under the supervision of H. M. Armed Launches "Nessus" and "Onslaught" and the ship abandoned.

    There is as yet no evidence that the cargo was improperly stowed and the evidence as to loss of life is not complete but the Court finds the Master in default in proceeding to sea with the ship overloaded and in being absent from the bridge when the safety of the ship required his personal supervision and in attempting to cross the bar under' the prevailing conditions. The Court orders his certificate of competency to be suspend- ed for a period of three calendar months and recommends that a certificate as 1st Mate in the meantime be issued to him.

   The Court is satisfied that the stability of the ship is satisfactory with the cargo properly stowed but notes that the stowage of cargo was left in the hands of a coolie and that neither the master nor the mate took any steps to ensure that the cargo was properly stowed.

The Court records its opinion based on the number of casualties to ships, the evidence produced in this case and its own intimate knowledge of the River Trade, that the state of ships so engaged is frequently unsatisfactory and recommends that a commis- sion be appointed by the Government of Hong Kong to enquire into the general conditions under which British ships operate in this trade.

Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hong Kong, this 3rd day of July, 1928.

B

Regulations respecting Foreign Orders and Medals applicable to Persons NOT in the Service of the Crown.

Orders.

    1. No subject of His Majesty shall accept or wear the Insignia of any Foreign Order without having previously obtained His Majesty's permission to do so, signified either:

(a.) By Warrant under the Royal Sign-Manual, or

(b.) By restricted permission conveyed through the Keeper of His Majesty's

Privy Purse.

    2. When permission is given by Warrant under the Royal Sign-Manual, the Insignia of the Foreign Order may be worn at all times and without any restriction.

    When restricted permission is given the Insignia may only be worn on the occasions specified in the terms of the letter from the Keeper of His Majesty's Privy Purse con- veying the Royal sanction.

3. The full and unrestricted permission by Warrant under the Royal Sign-Manual is designed to meet cases in which the Decoration has been earned by valuable service rendered to the Head of the State conferring it, or the State itself. Such service must have been both of manifest and substantial value to the Head of the State or State con- cerned and not inconsistent with British interests; and must have been rendered within the period of five years immediately preceding the notification of the Decoration to His Majesty's Government as prescribed under Rule 5.

    4. Restricted permission is particularly contemplated for Decorations which have been conferred in recognition of personal attention to a foreign Sovereign, the Head of a foreign State, or a member of a foreign Royal Fainily, and which are therefore of a more or less complimentary character, but will also be granted for Decorations conferred on other exceptional occasions, in the case of services of manifest and substantial value when not rendered direct to the foreign State, or when in the Public interest it is deemed expedient that they should be accepted.

    Restricted permission will not be granted in the case of Decorations conferred for services rendered more than five years previously.

5. Both in the case of full and of restricted permission the matter will be submitted to the King by His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, who shall be under no obligation to consider applications for permission unless the desire of the Head of a Foreign State to confer upon a British subject the Insignia of an Order is notified to him before the Order is conferred, either through the British Diplomatic Representative accredited to the Head of the Foreign State, or through the Diplomatic Representative of the latter at the Court of St. James.

6. When His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs shall have taken the King's pleasure on any such application, and shall have obtained His Majesty's permission for the person in whose favour it has been made to wear the Insignia of a Foreign Order, he shall signify the same to His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for the Home Department, in order that he may cause a Warrant, if it be a case for the issue of a Warrant as defined in Rule 2, to be prepared for the Royal Sign-Manual.

    When such Warrant shall have been signed by the King, a notification thereof shall be inserted in the "Gazette.'

    Persons in whose favour such Warrants are issued will be required to pay to His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for the Home Department a stamp duty of 10s.

    7. The Warrant signifying His Majesty's permission may, at the request and at the expense of the person who has obtained it, be registered in the College of Arms. Every such Warrant as aforesaid shall contain a clause providing that His Majesty's licence and permission does not authorise the assumption of any style, appellation, rank, preced- ence, or privilege appertaining to a Knight Bachelor of His Majesty's Realms.

The span of a flying machine shall be deemed to be the maximum lateral dimension.

12. In the event of the failure at night of any of the lights specified under these rules to be carried by aircraft flying at night, such aircraft shall land as soon as it can do so without danger.

    13. Nothing in these rules shall interfere with the operation of any special rules made by any State with respect to the additional station or signal lights for military aircraft, or for aircraft in formation, or with the exhibition of recognition signals adopted by owners of aircraft which have been authorised by their respective Governments and duly registered and published.

SECTION II.

Rules as to Signals.

    14. (a) An aircraft wishing to land at night on an aerodrome having a ground control shall, before landing, fire a green pyrotechnical light or flash intermittently a lamp or a projector other than the navigation lights. In addition, it shall make by international Morse Code, by means of sound or luminous signals, the two-letter group constituted by its nationality letter and the last letter of its registration mark.

    (b) Permission to land will be given by the same call-sign from the ground, followed by a green pyrotechnical light, or flashing a green lamp intermittently.

    15. The firing of a red pyrotechnical light or the display of a red flare from the ground shall be taken as

an instruction that aircraft are not to land.

    16. An aircraft compelled to land at night shall before landing fire a red pyrotechnical light or make a series of short and intermittent flashes with its navigation lights.

    17. When an aircraft is in distress and requires assistance, the following shall be the signals of distress to be used or displayed, either together or separately:-

(a) The international signal, SOS, by means of visual or wireless signals;

(b) The international code flag signal of distress, indicated by NC;

(c) The distant signal, consisting of a square flag having either above or below it a ball,

or anything resembling a ball;

(d) A continuous sounding with any sound apparatus;

(e) A signal, consisting of a succession of white pyrotechnical lights fired at short intervals.

18. To warn an aircraft that it is in the vicinity of a prohibited zone and should change its course, the following signals shall be used:

(a) By day three projectiles discharged et intervals of 10 seconds each showing, on bursting, white smoke, the location of the burst indicating the direction the aircraft should follow. (b) By night three projectiles discharged at intervals of 10 seconds each showing, on burst- ing, white lights or stars, the location of the burst indicating the direction the aircraft should follow.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 27, 1928.

19. To require an aircraft to land, the following signals shall be used:-

319

(a) By day three projectiles discharged at intervals of 10 seconds each showing, on bursting,.

black or yellow smoke.

(b) By night three projectiles discharged at intervals of 10 seconds each showing, on burst-

ing, green lights or stars.

In addition, when necessary to prevent the landing of aircraft other than the one ordered, a searchlight which shall be flashed intermittently shall be directed towards the aircraft whose landing is required.

20.-(a) In the event of fog or mist rendering aerodromes invisible, their presence may be indicated by a balloon acting as an aerial buoy and/or other approved means.

(b) In fog, mist, falling snow or heavy rainstorm, whether by day or night, an aircraft on the water shall make the following sound signals :-

(1) If not anchored or moored, a sound at intervals of not more than two minutes, consisting of two blasts of about five seconds' duration with an interval of about one second be- tween them.

(2) If at anchor or moored, the rapid ringing of an efficient bell or gong for about five seconds.

at intervals of not more than one minute.

SECTION III.

General Rules for Air Traffic.

  21. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 43 of this Schedule, flying machines shall always give way to balloons, fixed or free, and to airships, and airships shall always give way to balloons, whether fixed or free.

22. An airship, when not under its own control, shall be classed as a free balloon,

  23. Risk of collision can, when circumstances permit, be ascertained by carefully watching the compass bearing and angle of elevation of an approaching aircraft. If neither the bearing nor the angle of elevation appreciably change, such risk shall be deemed to exist.

  24. The term "risk of collision" shall include all risk of accident due to undue proximity of other aircraft. Every aircraft that is required by these rules to give way to another to avoid collision shall keep a safe distance, having regard to the circumstances of the case.

  25. While observing the rules regarding risk of collision contained in paragraph 24 of this Schedule, a motor-driven aircraft must always manoeuvre according to the rules contained in the following para- graphs as soon as it is apparent that, if it pursued its course, it would pass at a distance of less than 200 yards from any part of another aircraft.

  26. When two motor-driven aircraft are meeting end on, or nearly end on, each shall alter its course to the right.

27. When two motor-driven aircraft are on courses which cross, the aircraft which has the other on its own right side shall keep out of the way of the other.

  28. An aircraft overtaking another shall keep out of the way of the overtaken aircraft by altering its own course to the right, and must not pass by diving.

  Every aircraft coming up with another aircraft from any direction more than 110 degrees from ahead of the latter, i.e., in such a position with reference to the aircraft which it is overtaking that at night it would be unable to see either of that aircraft's side lights, shall be deemed to be an over- taking aircraft, and no subsequent alteration of the bearing between the two aircraft shall make the overtaking aircraft a crossing aircraft within the meaning of these rules, or relieve it of the duty of keeping clear of the overtaken aircraft until it is finally past and clear.

  As by day the overtaking aircraft cannot always know with certainty whether it is forward or abaft the direction mentioned above from the other aircraft, it should, if in doubt, assume that it is an overtaking aircraft and keep out of the way.

  29. Where by any of these rules one of the two aircraft is to keep out of the way, the other shall keep its course and speed. When, in consequence of thick weather or other causes, the aircraft having the right of way finds itself so close that collision cannot be avoided by the action of the giving-way aircraft alone, it shall take such action as will best aid to avert collision.

  30. Every aircraft which is directed by these rules to keep out of the way of another aircraft shall, if the circumstances of the case admit, avoid crossing ahead of the other.

320

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 27, 1928.

     31. In following an officially recognised air route every aircraft, when it is safe and practicable, shall keep to the right side of such route.

82. All aircraft on land or sea about to ascend shall not attempt to take off until there is no risk of collision with alighting aircraft.

     33. Every aircraft in a cloud, fog, mist, or other conditions of bad visibility shall proceed with caution, having careful regard to the existing circumstances and conditions.

     34. In conforming with these rules, due regard shall be had to all dangers of navigation and collision and to any special circumstances which may render a departure from the above rules neces- sary in order to avoid immediate danger.

SECTION IV.

Ballast.

35. The dropping of ballast other than fine sand or water from aircraft in the air is prohibited.

SECTION V.

Special Rules for Air Traffic on and in the vicinity of Aerodromes.

36. At every aerodrome if a flying machine about to land or leave finds it necessary to make a circuit or partial circuit, such a circuit or partial circuit shall, except in case of distress, be left- handed (anti-clockwise).

37. When a flying machine starts from an aerodrome it shall not turn until 500 yards distant from the nearest point of the aerodrome, and the turning must then conform with the regulations pro- vided in the preceding paragraph.

     (4) Every flying machine when running along the ground in the zone reserved for departures and landings, shall do so in the direction of landing: Provided that, on aerodromes approved by the Governor for the purpose, flying machines running along the ground may be authorised to cross the part reserved for departures and landings subject to regulations approved by the Governor.

     45.-(1) By way of exception to the general rule laid down in sub-paragraph (3) of paragraph 44 of this Schedule, at aerodromes to which this paragraph applies, the part reserved for departures and landings may be regarded as divided into two approximately equal zones, by a vertical plane bearing

(3) The white lights aforesaid shall be so placed that a flying machine will land in the direc-

tion leading from the middle of the base line to the apex of the triangle;

(4) The base line shall indicate the place where a flying machine should come into contact with the ground and the apex shall indicate the point before reaching which it should

come to rest.

   47. No fixed balloon, kite. or moored airship shall be elevated in the vicinity of any aerodrome without a special authorisation, except in the cases provided for in paragraph 20 of this Schedule.

General.

49. Every aircraft manoeuvring under its own power on the water shall conform to the Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, and for the purposes of these regulations shall be deemed to be a steam vessel, but shall only carry the lights specified in the preceding rules, and not those specified for steam-vessels in the Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, and shall not use, except as specified in paragraphs 17 and 20 of this Schedule, or be deemed to hear the sound signals specified in the above-mentioned Regulations.

50. Nothing in the above rules shall exonerate any aircraft, or the owner, pilot or crew thereof, from the consequences of any neglect in the use of lights or signals, or of any neglect to keep a proper lookout, or of the neglect of any precaution which may be required by the ordinary practice of the air, or by the special circumstances of the case.

51. Nothing in the above provisions shall interfere with the operation of any special rule or rules approved by the Governor and published relative to navigation of aircraft in the immediate vicinity of any aerodrome or other place, and it shall be obligatory on all owners, pilots, or crews of aircraft to obey such rules.

SCHEDULE V.

   1. Save as provided by Article 4 and Article 5 of this Order, every person acting as a com- mander, pilot, navigator, engineer or other operative member of the crew of a British aircraft regis- tered in the Colony shall be the holder of a licence in respect of the capacity in which he is so acting, granted or rendered valid under the provisions of this Order.

2.-(1) The Governor may issue directions providing for-

(a) The grant and renewal by him of such licences as aforesaid; and

(b) The validation by him for the purpose of flying British aircraft registered in the Colony

322

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 27, 1928.

(2) Pending the issue of such directions, licences may be granted, renewed or validated by the Governor on such conditions as he thinks fit.

3. A licence to pilot or navigate aircraft granted by the duly competent authority of any place within His Majesty's dominions shall for the purposes of this Order have the same validity and effect and may be cancelled or suspended in so far as relates to its validity within the Colony in like manner and in the like circumstances as if it had been granted under this Order.

4. In this Schedule the expression "licence" includes a certificate of competency.

SCHEDULE VI.

PROHIBITED AREAS.

    1. Such specifically defined areas in the Colony as the Governor may by proclamation declare to be prohibited areas shall be prohibited areas within the meaning of this Schedule.

    2. Every aircraft which finds itself above a prohibited area in contravention of this Order shall, as soon as aware of the fact, give the signal of distress provided in paragraph 17 of Schedule IV., and land as soon as possible outside the prohibited area at one of the nearest aerodromes in the Colony.

Provided that it shall not, unless compelled by stress of weather or other unavoidable cause, fly further into the prohibited area nor commence to descend while still above the prohibited area.

3. To warn an aircraft that it is in the vicinity of a prohibited area and should change its course, the signals prescribed in paragraph 18 of Schedule IV. shall be used.

4. The signals which may be given when an aircraft flies, or attempts to fly, over a prohibited area in contravention of this Order shall be those prescribed in paragraph 19 of Schedule IV.

    5. Upon the signals referred to in paragraph 4 of this Schedule being given, the aircraft shall immediately give the signal referred to in paragraph 2 of this Schedule, and land in accordance with that rule.

    6. If any aircraft flies, or attempts to fly, over any prohibited area or enters the Colony in con- travention of this Order, and if, after signals referred to in paragraph 4 of this Schedule have been given by, or by the direction of, a commissioned officer in His Majesty's Naval, Military, or Air Forces, or a commissioned officer in any Volunteer or Defence Force in the Colony, the aircraft fails to respond thereto by complying with the procedure laid down in paragraph 5 of the Schedule, the officer may fire at or into such aircraft, and use any and every other means necessary to compel com- pliance, and every and any such officer and every other person acting in his aid and by his direction shall be and is hereby indemnified and discharged from any indictment, penalty, action or other proceeding for so doing.

SCHEDULE VII.

ANNEX H. OF THE CONVENTION.

CUSTOMS.

General Provisions.

    1. Any aircraft going abroad shall depart only from aerodromes specially designated by the cus- toms administration of each contracting State, and named "customs aerodromes".

Aircraft coming from abroad shall land only in such aerodromes.

2. Every aircraft which passes from one State into another is obliged to cross the frontier be- tween certain points fixed by the contracting States. These points are shown on the aeronautical

maps.

    3. All necessary information concerning customs aerodromes within a State, including any altera- tions made to the list and any corresponding alterations necessary on the aeronautical maps and the dates when such alterations become valid, and all other information concerning any international aerodromes which may be established, shall be communicated by the State concerned to the Inter- national Commission for Air Navigation, which shall notify such information to all of the contracting States. The contracting States may agree to establish international aerodromes at which there may be joint customs services for two or more States.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 27, 1928.

323

4. When, by reason of a case of force majeure, which must be duly justified, an aircraft crosses the frontier at any other point than those designated it shall land at the nearest customs aerodrome on its route. If it is forced to land before reaching this aerodrome it shall inform the nearest police or customs authorities.

It will only be permitted to leave again with the authorisation of these authorities, who shall, after verification, stamp the log-book and the manifest provided for in paragraph 5: they shall inform the pilot of the customs aerodrome where he must necessarily carry out the formalities of customs clearance.

   5. Before departure, or immediately after arrival, according to whether they are going to or coming back from a foreign country, pilots shall show their log-books to the authorities of the aero- drome and, if necessary, the manifest of the goods and supplies for the journey which they carry.

6. The manifest is to be kept in conformity with the attached form No. 1.

   The goods must be the subject of detailed declarations in conformity with the attached form No. 2, made out by the senders.

   Every contracting State has the right to prescribe for the insertion either on the manifest or on the customs declaration of such supplementary entries as it may deem necessary.

   7. In the case of an aircraft transporting goods the customs officer, before departure, shall examine the manifest and declarations, make the prescribed verifications and sign the log-book as well as the manifest. He shall verify his signature with a stamp. He shall seal the goods or sets of goods, for which such a formality is required.

   On arrival the customs officer shall ensure that the seal is unbroken, shall pass the goods, shall sign the log-book and keep the manifest.

   In the case of an aircraft with no goods on board, the log-book only shall be signed by the police and customs officials.

The fuel on board shall not be liable to customs duties provided the quantity thereof does not exceed that needed for the journey as defined in the log-book.

8. As an exception to the general regulations, certain classes of aircraft, particularly postal air- craft, aircraft belonging to aerial transport companies regularly constituted and authorised and those belonging to members of recognised touring societies not engaged in the public conveyance of persons or goods, may be freed from the obligation of landing at a customs aerodrome and authorised to begin or end their journey at certain inland aerodromes appointed by the customs and police administration of each State at which customs formalities shall be complied with.

   However, such aircraft shall follow the normal air-route, and make their identity known by signals agreed upon as they fly across the frontier.

Regulations applicable to Aircraft and Goods.

9. Aircraft landing in foreign countries are in principle liable to customs duties if such exist.

   If they are to be re-exported, they shall have the benefit of the regulations as to permit by bond or deposit of the taxes.

   In the case of the formation, between two or more countries of the Union, of touring societies, the aircraft of the said countries will have the benefit of the regulations of the "Triptyque".

10. Goods arriving by aircraft shall be considered as coming from the country where the log- book and manifest have been signed by the customs officer.

   As regards their origin and the different customs regimes, they are liable to the regulations of the same kind as are applicable to goods imported by land or sea.

   11. With regard to goods exported in discharge of a temporary receiving or bonded account or liable to inland taxes, the senders shall prove their right to send the goods abroad by producing a certificate from the customs of the place of destination.

Air Transit.

   12. When an aircraft to reach its destination must fly over one or more contracting States, without prejudice to the right of sovereignty of each of the contracting States, two cases must be distinguished:-

1. If the aircraft neither sets down nor takes up passengers or goods it is bound only to keep to the normal air-route and make itself known by signals when passing over the points designated for such purpose.

324

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 27, 1928.

2. In other cases, it shall be bound to land at a customs aerodrome and the name of such aerodrome shall be entered in the log-book before departure. On landing, the customs authorities shall examine the papers and the cargo, and take, if need be, the necessary steps to ensure the re-exportation of the craft and goods or the payment of the dues.

The provisions of paragraph 9 are applicable to goods to be re-exported.

    If the aircraft sets down or takes up goods, the customs officer shall verify the fact on the mani- fest, duly completed, and shall affix, if necessary, a new seal.

Furious Provisions.

    13. Every aircraft during flight, wherever it may be, must conform to the orders from police or customs stations and police or customs aircraft of the State over which it is flying.

    14. Customs officers and excise officials, and generally speaking the representatives of the public- authorities shall have free access to all starting and landing places for aircraft; they may also search any aircraft and its cargo to exercise their rights of supervision.

    15. Except in the case of postal aircraft, all unloading or throwing out in the course of flight, except of ballast, may be prohibited.

16. In addition to any penalties which may be imposed by local law for infringement of the preceding regulations, such infringement shall be reported to the State in which the aircraft is regis- tered, and that State shall suspend for a limited time, or permanently, the certificate of registration of the offending aircraft.

    17. The provisions of this Annex do not apply to military aircraft visiting a State by special authorisation (Articles 30, 31, and 32 of the Convention), nor to police and customs aircraft (Articles 30 and 33 of the Convention).

11.--SECOND, AND SUBSEQUENT, WIFE'S PROSPECTIVE PENSION.

(A) Variations of pension consequent on increments to, and decrements from, the current annual contribution while the contributor is a widower,

RULE II (a)-Assume that the contributor is married to a wife of the age that his last pre- ceding wife would have been had she survived to the date of the variation of the contribution, and proceed in accord- ance with Rule I (e).

Example

of the application of Rule II (a).

If the particulars be as in the example subjoined to Rule I (c), except that the first wife, who was born on 31st August, 1888, died on 30th November, 1908, it would be assumed that the contributor was at the date of each of the three variations of the contribution married to a wife who was born on the 31st August, 1888. The calculations will then be identical with those given in the example subjoined to Rule 1 (c).

(B) Variations of pension consequent on the re-marriage of the

contributor.

NOTE. No variation of the registered pension is to be recorded if the second or subsequent, wife was at the date of the re-marriage of the same age next birth day as the last preceding wife would have been had she survived to that date.

RULE II (b)-If the second, or subsequent, wife was

at the date of the re-marriage of a less or greater age next birthday than the last preceding wife would have been had she survived to that date, multiply the amount of the registered pension by the quantity found from Table C corresponding to the age next birthday of the husband at the date of re-mar- riage, and the age next birthday which the last preceding wife would have attained had she survived to that date; multiply the product so obtained by the quantity found from Table A cor- responding to the respective ages of the husband and of the second, or sub- sequent, wife at the date of the re-mar- riage.

The result gives the registerel pension to be recorded on the re- marriage of the contributor.

(A) Pension in consideration of the annual contribution cur-

rent at the date of commencement of the contribution.

PENSIONS TO ORPHAN CHILDREN.

Regulated by sections 19, 20, 22, 23 and 26 of the Ordinance.

E. OFFICER TRANSFERRED TO THE SERVICE OF ANOTHER COLONY,

Throughout these rules and examples the calculations depend, not on the official income of the contributor, but on the amount of his contribution so that the transfer of an officer to another service does not affect his registered pension unless the amount of his current annual contribution is varied, in which case the proper adjustment is to be made in accordance with the preceding rules.

F.-CALCULATION OF QUANTITIES (OR TABULAR RESULTS)

FOR AGES NOT GIVEN IN THE TABLES.

TABLE A.-The quantities are given for every age of the hus- band from 15 to 64; and for every fifth age of the wife from 15 to 65. Ages of husbands and wives below or beyond are to be treated as the youngest and oldest ages given respectively.

For the intermediate ages of wives, interpolate by the first differ- ences, as follows:-

To find the quantity corresponding to the ages of a husband

and wife aged, respectively, 35 and 27 next birthday. The quantity for ages 35 and 25 given in the

Table is.....

.... .482.

.507.

The quantity for ages 35 and 30 given in the

Table is....

...

So that the addition of five years to the age of the wife results in an addition of .025 to the quantity given in the Table for ages 35 and 25.

An addition of two years to the age of the wife accordingly results by proportion in an addition of two-fifths of .025 to the quantity given in the Table for ages 35 and 25. Two-fifths of .025 .01, which added to .482 gives .492 which is the required quantity corresponding to ages 35 and 27.

TABLE B.-This Table is divided into eleven sections, respec- tively, applicable to officers who will be aged next birthday 55, 56, 57

up to 65, when they complete their period of contri- bution. Care should in all cases be taken to turn to the section which contains in the heading the age of the husband at the date of completion of his period of contribution.

#

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, AUGUST 3, 1928.

In each section the quantities are given for 35 consecutive ages of the husband, terminating at the age preceding that at which the contribution ceases, and for every fifth age of the wife from 15 to 65.

Ages of the wife below or beyond are to be treated as the youngest and oldest ages given, respectively. For the intermediate ages of wives interpolate by first differences as explained above. Thus, the quantity found from the first section of the Table (age 55) corresponding to the ages of a husband and wife aged, respectively, 45 and 38 next birthday is three-fifths of .18, added to 2.39, which gives 2.50.

For officers who commence to contribute at an earlier age than 20 next birthday the method of calculation given in the subjoined examples is to be followed :-

EXAMPLE (1) An cfficer aged 17 next birthday, having a

wife aged 15 next birthday, commences to contribute. Assume that the officer is aged 20 rext birthday, so that the quantity found from Table B will be 8.30.

This officer receives an increment of salary at age 22 next birth- day, when his wife's age is 20. Assume that his age is 25 next birth- day-i.e., his actual age 22-plus the difference between his actual age at entry and 20, which is three years. The quantity found from Table B will be 7.00.

EXAMPLE (2)-An officer aged 19 next birthday commences to contribute as a bachelor, and five years later, when aged 24 next birthday, marries ; his wife's age being 20 next birthday. The quantity found from Table A in accordance with Rule I (a) will be taken for the actual ages (husband 24 and wife 20) and will be .683. With respect to the current annual contribution at marriage, assume that the officer's age is 25 (his actual age plus one) so that the quantity from Table B will be 7.00.

This officer receives an increment of salary when aged 39, when his wife's age is 35. Assume as before that the ages are 40 and 35, respectively, so that the quantity found from Table B will be 3.61.

NOTE. It will be observed that this method takes account of the actual number of years for which the annual contribution will run. In example (1), when the officer receives the increment of salary at age 22 he has contributed for five years, so that at the expiration of 30 years his contributions will cease. Similarly, in example (2), when the officer marries at age 24, he also has contri- buted for five years, so that although he is two years older than the officer in example (1), yet the unexpired period of contribution is the same in each case, and the wife's age is in each instance 20, so that no important error is involved n using the same tabular quantity for the two cases.

TABLE C.-The quantities are given for the same ages s in Table A. Ages of husbands and wives below and beyond are to be treated as in using that Table.

For the intermediate ages of wives interpolate by first differences as explained above, except that it must be noted that in this Table an addition to the age of the wife results in a deduction from the quantity given in the Table.

To find the quantity corresponding to the ages of a husband and wife aged, respectively, 35 and 27 next birthday.

The quantity for ages 35 and 25 given in the

Table is....

343

..2.074.

The quantity for ages 35 and 30 given in the

Table is..

.1.974.

So that the addition of five years to the age of the wife results in a deduction of .100 from the quantity given in the Table for 35 and 25.

ages

An addition of two years to the age of the wife accordingly results by proportion in a deduction of two-fifths of .100 from the quantity given in the Table for ages 35 and 25.

Two-fifths of .100 = .04, which deducted from 2.074 leaves 2.034, which is the required quantity corresponding to ages 35 and 27.

When money in court is by an order directed to be dealt with otherwise than by lodgment, withdrawal, transfer or investment, the party having the carriage of the order shall lodge with the Registrar a request in writing for the money to be dealt with in the terms of the order, and the Registrar shall thereupon act in accordance with such order.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, SEPTEMBER 14, 1928.

IV. INTEREST ON FUNDS LODGED.

15.-(1) Money lodged in Court to the credit of any account shall be credited with interest at the rate of two per centum per annum except in the following cases :-

(a) When the money is paid into Court as security for costs or by way of satis- faction or amends or in compliance with an order giving leave to defend upon such payment, or

(b) when the amount is less than $100.00.

(2) Interest upon money lodged in court shall not be computed on a fraction of one

dollar.

(3) Interest upon money lodged in court shall accrue by calendar months and shall not be computed for any less period. Such interest shall begin on the first day of the calendar month next succeeding that in which the money is lodged in court and shall cease from the last day of the calendar month next preceding the day of the withdrawal of the money from lodgment.

(4) Interest which has accrued for or during the half-year ending on the 30th day of June and 31st day of December in every year on money then lodged in court shall on or before the 15th days of the months respectively following be placed by the Registrar to the credit to which such money shall be standing on every such half-yearly day, and when money lodged in court is withdrawn from lodgment, the interest thereon which has accrued and has not been credited shall be placed to the credit to which the money is then standing.

16. When money lodged in court consists of sums which have been lodged at different times, and an order is made dealing with the money, and part of such money has to be withdrawn from lodgment for the purpose of executing such order, the part or parts of the money dealt with by such order last lodged and remaining lodged in court at the time of such withdrawal shall, for the purpose of computing interest, be treated as so withdrawn unless the order otherwise directs.

   17. Unless otherwise directed by an order, interest credited on money lodged in court shall, when or so soon as it amounts to or exceeds one hundred dollars be dealt with as if it were money lodged in court and interest shall be credited thereon accord- ingly and, for the purpose of computing interest upon it, shall be treated as having been lodged in court on the last half-yearly day on which any such interest became due.

V. EVIDENCE OF LIFE, ETC.

   18. When any person is entitled under an order to receive dividends or other periodical payments and the Registrar requires evidence of life or of the fulfilment of any conditions affecting such payments, such evidence may be furnished by a declaration. signed by a solicitor acting on behalf of such person or by a declaration signed by the person entitled to such payment and attested by a justice of the peace, magistrate, minister of religion, or notary public, and the Registrar shall act on such evidence unless in any case he thinks fit to require such evidence to be by statutory declaration or affidavit.

   19. When, in carrying into effect the directions of an order, evidence is required by the Registrar for any purposes other than those included in rule No. 18 of these rules, he may receive and act upon an affidavit or upon a statutory declaration, and every such affidavit or statutory declaration shall be filed in court when the Registrar shall consider it necessary.

VI. MISCELLANEOUS.

    20. The Registrar, upon a request signed by or on behalf of a person claiming to be interested in any funds in court standing to the credit of an account specified in such request, shall, unless there is good reason for refusing, issue a certificate of the amount and description of such funds, and such certificate shall have reference to the morning of the day of the date thereof and shall not include the transactions of that day; and the Registrar shall notify on such certificate the dates of any orders restraining the transfer, sale, delivery out or payment, or other dealing with the funds in court to the credit of the account mentioned in such certificate and whether such orders affect principal or interest and any charging orders affecting such funds of which respectively he has received notice and the names of the persons to whom notice is to be given or in whose favour such restraining or charging orders have been made. The Registrar may redate any such certificate provided that no alteration in the amount or description of funds has been made since the certificate was issued.

    21. Upon a request signed by or on behalf of a person claiming to be interested in funds in court, the Registrar shall, unless there is good reason for refusing, issue a transcript of the account in his books specified in such request.

                                  He shall also upon a like request, unless there is good reason for refusing, supply such other information or issue such certificates with respect to any transactions or dealings with funds in court as may from time to time be required in any particular case.

    22. In any case not provided for by these rules, the practice of the Paymaster General's Office for business of the Supreme Court of Judicature in England may be followed as nearly as the circumstances of the case will admit.

COLONIAL SECRETARY'S DEPARTMENT.

No. 593.-The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the . 18th and 19th October, 1928, to investigate the circumstances attending the stranding

of the British Steamship Borneo, is published for general information.

26th October, 1928.

Colonial Secretary.

FINDING.

The S. S. Borneo Official Number 153537 of Hong Kong, of which ship the Master was Johannes Hendrik van den Berg who holds a Certificate of Competency as Master No. 3104 issued at Hong Kong, on 1st October, 1928, left Hong Kong with a cargo of coal for Shanghai.

The ship was drawing 19 ft. ford. and 19 ft. 11 inches aft.

The weather was rough with a heavy sea running and strong wind between N.N.E. and N.E. so on 2nd instant, and after passing Breaker Point, the Master decided that there was no alternative but to take shelter. He proceeded to Haimun Bay at about 2.30 p.m. with this object, being unable to proceed further in the prevailing conditions.

    The Master stated that he was well acquainted with the anchorage having anchored there on previous occasions in ships drawing 20 feet.

On approaching the anchorage on a Northerly course speed was reduced and the lead was in use.

The anchor was eventually let go in 4 fathoms at 2.40 p.m. with Hainan Point bearing 090° and the West Point bearing 000°. Cable was veered to 75 fathoms. In

this position there was some swell with a smooth sea.

The ship's head swung to starboard to E.N.E. when the Mate reported that he had felt a bump aft and subsequently No. 4 Ballast tank was found to be holed. Soundings all round the ship then showed 4 fathoms and the position of the ship was verified.

At 3 20 p.m. the anchor was weighed and the ship proceeded for Swatow.

The Court is of the opinion that the Master was justified in seeking shelter in Haimun Bay despite the fact that it is not recommended in the China Sea Pilot Vol. V but that in the unavoidable use of a general chart he should have anchored further out.

Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hong Kong, this 19th day of October, 1928.

(Signed)

Il avait, de plus, été entendu que si, après la signature de cette Convention, il était considéré comme désirable d'étendre ses dispositions à des protectorats britanniques autres que ceux qui sont mentionnés, ou à des territoires au sujet desquels un mandat de la part de la Société des Nations a été accepté par Sa Majesté Britannique, ses dispositions, après accord entre les Gouvernements respectifs, s'appliqueraient aussi à ces autres protec- torats ou à ces territoires, à partir de la date fixée dans les notes devant être échangées en vue de réaliser pareille extension.

2. Le Gouvernement de Sa Majesté Britannique en Grande-Bretagne désire que les dispositions de la Convention du 8 août 1923 soient actuellement étendues à la Palestine (à l'exception de la Transjordanie), au Territoire du Tanganyika, au Cameroun Britan- nique et à la sphère anglaise du Togoland, au sujet desquels des mandats de la part de la Société des Nations ont été acceptés par Sa Majesté Britannique, ainsi qu'au Nauru. Les Gouvernements de Sa Majesté respectivement dans le Commonwealth d'Australie, en Nouvelle-Zélande et dans l'Union Sud-Africaine désirent que les dispositions de la dite Convention soient également étendues aux territoires sous mandat de la Nouvelle-Guinée, de la Samoa Occidentale et du Su-Ouest Africain. En conséquence, il est convenu par le présent échange de notes que les dispositions de la dite Convention seront applicables aux territoires désignés ci-dessus à partir du 1er août 1928.

(i) If a foreign ship, originally registered as a British ship, is subsequently brought forward for registry, a fee of $20 only is to be charged if, on comparison, the principal dimensions are found to agree with the original tonnage measurements. If, however, they do not agree and the ship has to be measured throughout, the full fee is to be charged. If the underdeck tonnage is found to agree and other items differ, then, in addition to the $20 fee for check measurement, further fees are to be charged for these items in accordance with the foregoing.

() If a ship is being transferred from British to foreign registry, details of the British tonnage calculation may be supplied for the guidance of the foreign Customs Authorities on payment of a fee of $5 per sheet subject to a minimum of $20.

(k) The fee paid in accordance with Scale A covers any number of visits that the Surveyor may find it necessary to make before he is able to complete the measurement for tonnage and grant his certificate to enable a ship to be registered. It also covers the inspection of crew spaces and lights and sound signals, if the Surveyor is able to make these inspections at the same time as the measurement for tonnage but not other- wise. For any further visits necessary for the completion of inspection of crew spaces and lights and sound signals, additional fees are to be charged in accordance with Regu- lations 9 and 11 respectively.

Overtime Charges.

   20.-(a) Whenever Surveyors are called upon to perform services out of official hours application should be made to the Chief Surveyor and an undertaking given to pay the overtime charges.

(b) Official hours are to be regarded as from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturdays 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and overtime is charged according to the following scale :-

On week days:-

from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. from 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. and 6 p.m to 8 p.. before 6 a.m. and after 8 p.m....

on Sundays and holidays

...$10 per hour.

$20 per hour.

$40 per hour.

$40 per hour.

(c) A service occupying less than an hour will be charged for as one hour, according to the scale. For services exceeding one hour, a quarter fee will be charged for every quarter or part quarter of an hour, according to the scale, but for a service exceeding ten hours in any one case the charge will be limited to that for ten hours. These charges cover the services of all the Surveyors engaged in the survey, except if the services of an Engineer Surveyor in addition to those of an Emigration Officer are required before an emigrant ship can be cleared, the survey made by the Engineer Surveyor will be regarded as a separate one, and overtime charges will be made in respect of both officers.

(d) If, from unforeseen circumstances, the duty cannot be commenced at the hour stated on the form of application, or cannot be completed without interruption, the time during which the Surveyors are kept waiting is to be charged for a half the usual over- time rate subject to the limit of ten hours for the whole service.

(e) Time occupied in travelling between the shore and the ship is to be charged for at half the usual overtime rate.

(f) As the tests of illumination of ship's sides, searchlights for ship's lifeboats and visibility of navigation lights can only be made satisfactorily after dark, therefore, neces- sarily out of office hours, only one-half the usual overtime rate is to be charged for such tests.

France (Extradition) Order in Council, 1928.

PRESENT:

THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY.

LORD CHAMBERLAIN.

SECRETARY SIR W. JOYNSON-HICKS.

SECRETARY SIR J. GILMOUR.

EARL GRANVILLE,

SECRETARY SIR AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN. SIR WILLIAM TYRRELL.

HEREAS by the Extradition Acts, 1870 (33 & 34 Vict. c. 52) to 1906 (6 Edw. VII, c. 15), it was amongst other things enacted that, where an arrangement has been made with any foreign State with respect to the surrender to such State of any fugitive criminals, His Majesty may, by Order in Council, direct that the said Acts shall apply in the case of such foreign State; and that His Majesty may, by the same or any subsequent Order, limit the operation of the Order, and restrict the same to fugitive. criminals who are in or suspected of being in the part of His Majesty's dominions speci- fied in the Order, and render the operation thereof subject to such conditions, exceptions and qualifications as may be deemed expedient:

   And whereas notes were exchanged on September 21/November 13, 1923, between H. M. Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs and His Excellency the French Ambassador, the provisions of the Treaty between Her late Majesty and the President of the French Republic of August 14, 1876, and the Additional Conventions of October 17, 1908, for the mutual extradition of fugitive criminals, were extended to the territories of the Cameroons and Togoland, in respect of which a mandate on behalf of the League of Nations has been accepted by the French Republic, the terms of which notes are as follows:-

FOREIGN OFFICE, S.W. 1,

21st September, 1923.

YOUR EXCELLENCY,

   By notes exchanged between His Majesty's Ambassador at Paris and the French Government on August 16th/October 15th, 1909, the provisions of the Extradition Treaty between Great Britain and France of August 14th, 1876, and the additional Convention of October 17th, 1908, were extended to certain named British protectorates in Africa, the natives of those protectorates being for this purpose regarded as assimilated to British subjects.

   2. It now appears desirable to extend in like manner the provisions of the aforesaid treaties to the territories of the Cameroons, Togoland and Tanganyika, in respect of which a mandate on behalf of the League of Nations has been accepted by His Britannic Majesty, and to the territories of the Cameroons and Togoland in respect of which a mandate on behalf of the League of Nations has been accepted by the French Republic, the natives of those territories being regarded for this purpose as assimilated to British. subjects and French subjects respectively.

558 THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 21, 1928.

3. His Majesty's Government would accordingly propose, if this course is agreeable to the French Government, that the present note and Your Excellency's reply in a similar sense should serve to place on record the understanding arrived at between the two governments in the matter.

I have the honour, &c.,

His Excellency,

Count de Saint-Aulaire,

Londres, le 13 Novembre, 1923.

    Par les notes échangées entre le Ministère des Affaires Etrangères de la Républi- que française et l'Ambassade de Sa Majestè britannique à Paris les 16 août et 15 octobre 1909, les dispositions de la Convention d'Extradition franco-britannique du 14 août 1876 et de la Convention additionnelle du 17 octobre 1908 ont été étendues à certains protec- torats britanniques spécifiés en Afrique, les indigènes de ces protectorats étant à cet effet considérés comme sujets britanniques assimilés.

    Il apparait maintenant comme désirable d'étendre pareillement les dispositions des dits traités aux territoires du Cameroun et du Togoland, pour lesquels un mandat de la Société des Nations a été accepté par la République française, et aux territoires du Cameroun, du Togoland et de Tanganyika pour lesquels un mandat de la Société des Nations a été accepté par Sa Majesté britannique, les indigènes de ces territoires étant considérés à cet effet comme respectivement assimilés aux ressortissants français et aux sujets britanniques.

    Le Gouvernement de la République française constate en conséquence, puisque le Gouvernement de Sa Majesté britannique agrée cette procédure, que la présente note qui est une réponse à la lettre de Votre Seigneurie du 21 septembre 1923 établit l'accord entre les deux Gouvernements en la matière.

Veuillez agréer, &c.

Le Marquis Curzon de Kedleston,

    Now, therefore, His Majesty, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, and in virtue of the authority committed to Him by the said recited Acts, doth order, and it is hereby ordered, that the said Acts shall apply in the case of the territories of the Came- roons and Togoland in respect of respect of which a mandate on behalf of the League of Nations has been accepted by the French Republic under and in accordance with the Agreement constituted by the aforesaid notes exchanged on September 21/November 13, 1923.

    Provided always that the operation of the said Acts shall be and remain suspended within the Dominion of Canada so long as an Act of the Parliament of Canada, being Part I of Chapter 155 of the Revised Statutes of Canada, 1906, and entitled "An Act respecting the Extradition of Fugitive Criminals," shall continue in force there, and no longer.

This Order may be cited as the "France (Extradition) Order in Council, 1928."

AT THE COURT AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE,

THE 1ST DAY OF NOVEMBER, 1928.

PRESENT:

THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY IN COUNCIL.

HEREAS by Section 18 of "The Extradition Act, 1870," it is among other things enacted, that if by any law made after the passing of the said Act by the legislature of any British possession, provision is made for carrying into effect within such possession the surrender of fugitive criminals who are in, or suspected of being in, such British possession His Majesty may, by the Order in Council applying the said Act in the case of any foreign state, or by any subsequent Order, either

suspend the operation within any such British possession of the said Act, or of any part thereof so far as it relates to such foreign state, and so long as such law continues in force there and no longer;

or direct that such law or ordinance or any part thereof shall have effect in such British possession, with or without modifications and alterations, as if it were part of the Act:

And whereas by an ordinance enacted by the legislature of the Colony of Kenya, the short title of which is "The Extradition Ordinance, 1928," it is provided that all powers vested in and acts authorised or required to be done by a Police Magistrate or any Justice of the Peace in relation to the surrender of fugitive criminals in the United Kingdom under the Extradition Acts, 1870 and 1873, are thereby vested in and may in the Colony be exercised and done by any Magistrate holding a Subordinate Court of the first class in relation to the surrender of fugitive criminals under the said Acts:

   And whereas it is further provided by the said ordinance that the said ordinance shall not come into operation until His Majesty shall by Order in Council direct that the said ordinance shall have effect within the Colony as if it were part of the Extradition Act, 1870, but that the said ordinance shall thereafter come into operation as soon as such Order in Council shall have been publicly made known in the Colony:

Now, therefore, His Majesty, in pursuance of "The Extradition Act, 1870," and in exercise of the power in that behalf in the said Act contained, doth by this present Order, by and with the advice of His Majesty's Privy Council, direct that the said ordi- nance shall have effect in the Colony of Kenya without modification or alteration, as if it were part of the Extradition Act, 1870.

   And the Right Honourable Leopold Charles Maurice Stennett Amery, one of His Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State, is to give the necessary directions herein accord- ingly.
