new section to Ordinance No. 12 of 1916.

Objects und Reasons.

It is desirable to make it clear that the powers con- ferred by Ordinance No 6 of 1913 are to be in addition to those conferred by any other enactment. This object is proposed to be effected by the addition of the appro-· priate words to the clause which at present appears as section 2 of Ordinance No. 6 of 1913. As that Ordi- nance is short and has already been amended once it seems to be the more convenient course to repeal it and the amending Ordinance and to re-enact the provisions of those two Ordinances with the above addition.

J. H. KEMP,

Attorney General.

Short title

A BILL

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend the Interpretation.

Ordinance, 1911.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Interpretation and construc- Amendment Ordinance, 1917, and shall be read and construed as one with the Interpretation Ordinance,

tion.

1911, hereinafter called the Principal Ordinance, and Ordinance the said Ordinance and this Ordinance may be cited No. 31 of together as the Interpretation Ordinances, 1911 and 1917. 1911.

2. Section 9 of the Principal Ordinance is repealed Repeal of and the following section is substituted therefor :-

Exercise of statutory powers between pas- sing and com- mencement

of Ordinance. 52 & 53 Vict., c. 63, s. 37.

Ordinance No. 31 of

1911, s. 9.

and substi-

section.

9. Where an Ordinance confers power to make any appointment, to make, tution of new grant, or issue any instrument, that is to say, any Order in Council, order, warrant, scheme, letters patent, rules, regulations, or by-laws, to give notices, to prescribe forms, or to do any other thing for the purposes of the Ordi- nance, that power may, unless the con- trary intention appears, be exercised at any time after the passing of the Ordi- nance, so far as may be necessary or expedient for the purpose of bringing the Ordinance into operation. at the date of the commencement thereof, subject to this restriction, that any instrument made under the power shall not, unless the contrary intention appears in the Ordinance, or the con- trary is necessary for bringing the Ordinance into operation, come into operation until the Ordinance comes into operation.

3. The definitions of "Revenue officer" and "Excise officer" in section 39 of the Principal Ordinance are repealed.

bjects and Reasons.

The object of clause 2 of this bill is to make it clear that powers conferred by an Ordinance may be exercised at any time after the passing of the Ordinance, even before its commencement, so far as may be necessary for the purpose of bringing the Ordinance into opera- tion. This was clearly the intention of the existing section, but the reference in that section to the suspen- ding of an Ordinance might be construed as limiting the section to Ordinances which contain a suspending clause. The section which it is now proposed to sub- stitute follows as closely as possible the wording of the corresponding section, section 37, in the United King- dom Interpretation Act, 1889. It is not possible to follow the wording of the Act exactly. because an Act of the Imperial Parliament comes into effect on the day on which the Royal Assent is given while an Ordinance in this Colony does not come into operation until the date of its publication in the Gazette.

Clause 3 of the bill repeals the definitions of "Re- venue officer and Excise officer" in the Principal Ordinance. The term Excise officer is no longer in use, the class of officers to whom it was formerly applied having ceased to exist. The subject of revenue officers is dealt with in a bill which will be introduced at the same meeting of the Legislative Council as this bill.

J. H. KEMP,

Attorney General.

Amendment of Ordinance No. 31 of

1911, s. 39, B: "Revenue officer"; 'Excise

officer ".

A BILL

Short title.

Meaning of "port" and "madeira' as applied to wine.

5 Geo. 5, c. 1, s. 1.

Ordinance No. 4 of 1890.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to make such provisions as are necessary to enable the Anglo-Portuguese Commercial Treaty to come into force as regards the Colony of Hongkong.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Anglo-Portu- guese Commercial Treaty Ordinance, 1917.

2. The description "port" or "madeira" applied to any wine or other liquor, other than wine the produce of Portugal and the island of Madeira respectively, shall be deemed to be a false trade description within the meaning of the Merchandise Marks Ordinance, 1890, and that Ordinance shall have effect accordingly:

Provided that it shall be a good defence to any pro- ceedings under that Ordinance in respect of such a des- cription as aforesaid if it is proved-

(a) that the wine or other liquor to which the description is applied is intended solely for exportation from the Colony; or

(b) in the case of any wine or other liquor sold or exposed for or kept in possession for sale within twelve months after the passing of this Ordinance, that the description applied thereto was lawfully so applied before the passing of this Ordinance.

Objects and Reasons.

It is proposed that this Colony shall signify its adherence to the recent Anglo-Portuguese Commercial Treaty, and Article 6 of that treaty requires adherents to restrict the use of the terms port and madeira to wine which is the produce of Portugal and Madeira respectively.

This bill, which is founded on the English Act, pro- vides for the necessary legislation. The Act and treaty were published in the Gazette of the 20th February, 1915.

7. It shall be lawful for the Governor in Council upon consideration of such report to order that a fine shall be imposed on the said village or on such area as he shall prescribe.

8.-(1.) Every such fine shall be apportioned by the Colonial Treasurer among all the owners of land in the said village or area prescribed, in the manner specified in sub-section (2) of this section, according to the amount of Crown rent or village rent payable by such owners respectively.

(2.) In the New Territories the Colonial Treasurer shall apportion the fine among all the persons whose names appear on the Crown rent roll for the said village or area, and elsewhere in the Colony among all the persons whose names appear either on the Crown rent roll or on the village reut roll for the said village or area.

(3.) The amounts so apportioned shall in each case be a first charge on the land in respect of which the Crown rent or village rent upon which the apportionment was based is payable.

9. The Crown Land Preservation Ordinance, 1910, is repealed.

Objects and Reasons.

One of the objects of this bill is to alter the composition of the body contemplated by the Crown Land Preservation Ordinance, 1910, for the purpose of enquiring into causes of damage to trees on Crown land or other Crown property with a view to the imposition of a fine on any village or area by the inhabitants of whom the damage was caused. In the New Territories the body will now consist of the District Officer and the Superintendent of the Botanical and Forestry Department instead of the District Officer and Assistant District Officer. In the rest of the Colony the body will consist of the Superintendent of the Botani- cal and Forestry Department and either the Secretary for Chinese Affairs or one of his Assistants,

The other object of the bill is to widen the incidence of the fine and thereby to make it fairer. Under the present Ordinance the fine falls on the owners who are on the Crown rent roll while the persons on the village rent roll

escape.

The form of the present Ordinance makes it somewhat difficult to amend, and this bill repeals it and re-enacts thre appropriate provisions.

Objects and Reasons.

The Straits Settlements and Protected States Fugitive Offenders Order in Council, 1916, which was made by virtue of the provisions of the Fugitive Offenders (Pro- tected States) Act, 1915, provides that the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, is to apply as if the Federated Malay States and the States of Johore, Kedah, Perlis, Kelantan, Brunei and North Borneo were British possessions.

The bill makes it clear that the reference is both to poisons and to syringes and other appliances.

In sections 18 and 19 the expression "every premises is not grammatical.

In section 21 (1) (a) the words "dwelling house, shop, building" were left in by mistake from a former draft.

In section 21 (1) (c) the words "or designated" are now inserted in order to enable a description to be inserted in a warrant where the name is not known.

In section 23 (1) a reference to ships is now added.

Objects and Reasons,

The object of this bill is to deal with certain points which have arisen in the course of the liquidations since the last amending Ordinance was passed.

Clause 1 is formal.

Clause 2 contains definitions of terms.

and "

"Corporation under enemy control", "enemy", "enemy subject", "immovable property

term "alien

It is important to remember that the

•

" will retam the meaning which it has under the present Ordinances, and will not be affected by the defini- tion of "enemy in the bill. It was originally intended to use the term enemy subject" in the principal Ordinance and not the terin "alien enemy ", but the latter term was adopted in deference to the terminology which was being To abandon the used in the United Kingdom at the time. term now would require so many alterations in the existing Ordinances that it seems more convenient to retain it in spite of the fact that a certain amount of overlapping in the meanings of the terms used is thereby caused.

117

In order to clear up doubts as to whether arbitrations are legal proceedings for the purpose of the Alien Enemies (Winding up) Amendment Ordinance, 1915, "legal pro- ceeding " is defined as including an arbitration. The sec- tions affected are sections 2, 3, 4, and 5 of Ordinance No. 11 of 1915.

Clause 3 gives the Court wider power to stay legal pro- ceedings brought against liquidators. Cases may arise in which justice could not be done if the case were heard during the war, owing, for instance, to the impossibility of obtaining evidence, and it seems desirable that the decision on such a point should rest with a judicial tribunal and not with the executive. It is possible that the Court already has inherent jurisdiction in the matter but it seems advisable to give it express jurisdiction.

The same remarks apply to clause 4, which amends the section of Ordinance No. 11 of 1915 which deals with the staying of actions brought against alien enemies. This clause also extends that section to all legal proceedings including arbitrations.

Clauses 5 and 6 are intended to dispel possible doubts as to the existence of powers which have been, or may have to be, assumed. It will be noticed that the liquidators are declared to have power to transfer the property of the persons whose affairs they are winding up whether they can or can not produce the documents of title relating to such property.

Clause 7 expressly provides that a liquidator's powers pass to his successors in office.

Clause 8 provides that liquidators shall be at liberty to distribute the assets in the first instance on the footing that no interest accrues on any debt after the commence- ment of the winding up. This provision has been borrowed from the law relating to bankruptcy. The clause does not take away the right of the creditor to interest, if his debt carries interest, and any surplus assets may be applied in payment of such interest. The rights of secured creditors

are saved.

Clause 9 provides that unsecured debts payable to cre- ditors who are not enemies or enemy subjects shall take priority over unsecured debts payable to creditors who are enemies or enemy subjects.

Clause 10 introducęs a power of disclaimer, modelled on the power of disclaimer in bankruptcy, which may be made use of in the case of any leases which the liquidators have been unable to deal with otherwise. Any person injured by the disclaimer will be treated as a creditor of the alien enemy to the extent of such injury, and a right to obtain the decision of the Court on the amount of damage suffered is recognised. It will be noticed that sub-clause (3) pro- vides that where a liquidator has sub-let the premises with the consent of the lessor the latter shall not be entitled to distrain on such premises except for the rent payable under the sub-lease, and shall not be entitled to re-enter except for breach of some covenant contained in the sub- lease.

Clause 11 provides machinery for compelling secured creditors to realise their securities. On such realisation the secured creditor is to retain the amount to which he is entitled under the terms of the security and is to pay the balance to the liquidator. In case of dispute as to the amount to which the secured creditor is entitled the latter has a right to a decision of the Court on the point. It is of course possible that in some cases, owing to contingent Hiabilities, it will not be possible at present to define exactly the amount to which the secured creditor is entitled, and in such cases it may be necessary that the total proceeds should continue to be held by the secured creditor, if the total liability, ascertained and contingent, exceeds the amount of the proceeds.

Clause 12 provides for the euforcement of orders made by the Court on applications for directions,

•

118

Clauses 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 are intended to prevent any immovable property sold in the liquidations from pass- ing under the control of persons who now are enemies or enemy subjects. A reference to the definition in clause 2 will show that "probibited control" is defined so as to include control after the conclusion of peace by persons who are now enemies or enemy subjects. Both that term and the term 66

corporation under enemy control" have been defined as widely as possible in order to include every possible form of control by or on behalf of persons who are now enemies or enemy subjects. Clause 13 prohibits liquidators from transferring property to prohibited control. Clause 14 provides for statutory declarations being made to enable liquidators to test the bonâ fides of intending purchasers, The forms of these declarations are given in clause 22. Clause 15 prohibits purchasers of immovable property from the liquidators from transferring such property to prohibited control without the permission of the Governor. It also provides that any person contra- vening the provisions of the section shall forfeit to the Crown the sum of $50,000. The reference to the permis- sion of the Governor is intended to meet difficulties which might otherwise arise hereafter on the transfer of immovable property sold in the liquidations, as no doubt a time will eventually arrive when it will be very difficult to ascer- tain whether a sale will or will not involve a transfer to prohibited control as defined in this bill. In such cases the prohibited control suspected may be merely technical and of no practical importance, and it would seein undesirable that vendors should be unable to sell except at a depreciated price and at the risk of committing a technical offence, and equally undesirable that purchasers acting on all good faith should have to take property with a technical flaw in the title. Probably in such cases after due enquiry the Governor's permission would be given to the transfer. Clause 16 provides for the forfeiture of immovable property sold in liquidations which comes under probibited control. Clause 17.gives the Governor power to require particulars for the purpose of enabling him to ascertain whether apy such property is under prohibited control.

Clause 18 deals with the question of trade marks belong- ing to alien enemies. Now that the liquidations are coming to an end and the control of the liquidators for all practical purposes will soon cease it has become necessary to make some other provision in order to retain Govern- ment control over these marks and to prevent their use by unauthorised persons. The method adopted is to vest the trade marks in the Custodian, together with the goodwill of the trades in which they were used, It is also necessary to provide for the keeping of these marks on the register because when the liquidators have paid in all their surplus assets to the Custodian they will have no funds from which to pay renewal fees. This point is dealt with by providing that none of these marks shall be removed from the register for non-payment of renewal fees except by order of the Governor, and it is also provided that any such marks which have been removed for non-payment of renewal fees shall be restored to the register.

Clause 19 provides that the validity of acts done by liquidators is not to be questioned on the ground that at the time when the act was done the person whose affairs are being wound up was not an alien enemy, or had died, or, in the case of a corporate body, had ceased to exist. A somewhat similar provision appears in section 9 of the Trading with the Enemy Amendment Act, 1916.

Clause 20 provides that no legal proceeding of any kind shall be brought against any liquidator or public officer, except with the permission of the Governor, in respect of any act or omission connected with any winding up under the Alien Enemies (Winding up) Ordinances.

Clause 21 provides that the provisions of the Alien Enemies (Winding up) Ordinance shall continue for such period after the conclusion of the war as may seem proper to the Governor. The object of the clause is to provide an interval during which the whole position, both here and in other parts of the Empire and in enemy countries, may be considered. It may also be that on the conclusion of the war various questions as to the liabilities of firms which are being wound up will still be unsettled.

119

Clause 22 adds to the Alien Enemies (Winding up) Ordinance a schedule of the forms of declaration to be made by purchasers before the completion of sales of im- movable property sold in the liquidations.

Clause 23 contains two repeals. Sub-clause (1) repeals a definition of the terin .<

　　　　person which is defined afresh in clause 2 of this bill, Sub-clause (2) repeals a section which is rendered unnecessary by clause 20 of this bill.

2. Sub-section (1) of section 4 of the principal Ordi- Amendment nance, as amended by section 2 of Ordinance No. 9 of of Ordinance 1914. is further amended by the substitution of the figures No. 4 of 1897,

for the figures "20" in the second line thereof.

s. 4 (1).

3. Section 18 of the principal Ordinance is repealed and Repeal of the following section is substituted therefor:

Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, s. 18, and substitution of new section.

18.(1.) Every person shall be guilty of a misde- Receiving or

(b) receives or.harboars any unmarried girl under the age of 21 years who, without the consent of her father or mother or any other person having the lawful care or charge of her, has left or been taken out of the posses- sion of her father or mother or such other

person.

(2.)

s. 19.

Amendment

or (3) receives or harbours any woman or girl with intent that she shall be sold, pledged, let out to hire, purchased, taken in pledge, taken on hire or otherwise disposed of for the purpose of prostitution either within or without the Colony.

5 Section 26 of the principal Ordinance is amended by of Ordinance the substitution of the figures 21" for the figures "18", No. 4 of 1897, in the second line thereof.

s. 26.

Objects and Reasons.

The existing law has been found inadequate for the pur- pose of dealing with the serious offence of the abduction of unmarried girls. This is due to two reasons. In the first place the present section applies only where the girl has been taken out of the possession of her parent or guardian. It is believed that many girls get lost or run away from their homes and are then picked up by the kidnappers. In the second place it is necessary under the existing law for the prosecution to prove that the accused knew that the girl had been taken away from her parent or guardian against the will of the parent or guardian.

This is gene- rally very difficult to prove. The girl is generally either an unintelligent or an unwilling witness, and the facts relating to her leaving her home are often known to no one in the Colony except to herself and to the accused.

Clause 3 of the bill alters the law on these two points. It makes it an offence to harbour an unmarried girl who has left her parents or guardians without their consent, as well as to harbour a girl who has been taken out of the possession of her parents or guardians. It also throws on the accused, once it is proved that he knowingly harboured the girl, the onus of proving that he did not know that she left her parent or guardian without the consent of the parent or guardian.

It has also been thought advisable to raise the age in the case of this offence to 21 years. This amendment, by clause 5 of the bill, is also made in section 26 of the prin- cipal Ordinance.

The age is also raised to 21 in the case of offences under sub-section (1) of section 4 of the principal Ordinance.

The opportunity has been taken to transfer paragraph 2 of section 18 of the principal Ordinance to section 19 of that Ordinance, to which it appears more properly to belong.

and landing.

(2.) The powers conferred by this section shall be without prejudice to any powers already possessed by the Governor in Council.

Objects and Reasons.

There are three main objects in this bill. One is to relax during the war the requirements as to certificated officers in the case of river steamers. The second is to provide for the licensing of all launches, including those which are not licensed at present. The third is to give the Governor in Council general power to make regula- tions for the purpose of controlling the embarkation and landing of persons and goods on or from vessels of all kinds.

The abnormal conditions of the present war have caused a great shortage of competent and suitable certi- ficated officers, and it is proposed to relax some of the ordinary requirements in the case of river steamers. As segards the deck officers, it is proposed to substitute an extra Chinese pilot for the mate, so that river steamers will be able to run with a certificated master and 3 Chinese pilots. As regards the engineers, it is proposed to substitute for the secnd engineer, in cases where a second engineer is required, a Chinese engineer holding a certificate of competency from the Harbour Master and specially approved by the Harbour Master for the service contemplated in the bill. These provisions are contained in clause 2 of the bill.

Clause 3 repeals section 37 of the principal Ordinance and substitutes a new section. Under the new section it is intended to make regulations requiring all launches

139

to be licensed. The opportunity has been taken to re-cast and simplify this section, and to relegate to the regulations such provisions as seem more appropriate to regulations than to an Ordinance.

Clause 4 is intended to give a power which circum- stances connected with the war have shown to be desira- ble, but which may also be useful in times of peace.

Swept Channel Eastern Entrance, Hongkong.

SHIPS are cautioned that they should approach and leave the harbour by the swept channel and that deviation from it is attended with risk. The channel is swept between the hours of sunrise and 7.30 a.m. and should not be used between those times.

In the event of ships arriving in the swept channel before the sweeping is completed they are warned that it is dangerous to approach vessels employed in sweeping the swept channel or to attempt to pass between pairs of vessels sweeping.

　　The vessels sweeping carry a ball at the masthead and another ball in a position where the yard would be and on that side on which it is dangerous for vessels to pass.

All signals made by the vessel superintending the sweeping are to be strictly obeyed.

Radio Time Signals.

　　1. There has been installed by the Navy Department, at the Darien Radio Station, Canal Zone, a time transmitting clock so constructed as to send time signals by radio. The clock is adjusted daily to Washington Observatory time by radio signal, with a maximum error not to exceed five-tenths of a second, ordinarily not to exceed one-tenth of a second. The signal is sent out by radio each day at 1.00 p.m., 75th meridian time. This signal begins at 12.55 p.m., and continues for five minutes. During this interval every tick of the clock is transmitted by radio except the 29th second of each minute, the 55th to the 59th second of each of the first four minutes, and finally the 50th to the 59th second of the last minute. The 1.00 p.m. signal is a longer contact after the longer break. The wave length used is 4,000 meters and is sent out so that any ship with ordinary commercial receiving apparatus capable of tuning as high as 4,000 meters should be able to receive it.

　　2. As the Navy Department of the United States has spared no expense in making the service reliable, it is desired that maximum benefits will result to shipping, and it is hoped that ship captains will communicate with the radio office at Darien, either by letter or radio, giving data as to distance of reception, clearness of signal, etc., in order that the service may be improved. If it is found that many merchant ships cannot tune to the 4,000 meter wave length, arrangements will be made to send time simultaneously from Colon Radio Station on a spark transmitter with shorter wave length.

Governor.

An Ordinance to repeal the North Borneo

Extradition Ordinance, 1896.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the North Borneo Short title. Extradition Ordinance, 1917.

2. The North Borneo Extradition Ordinance, 1896, is Repeal of hereby repealed.

Objects and Reasons.

The Straits Settlements and Protected States Fugitive Offenders Order in Council, 1916, which was made by virtue of the provisions of the Fugitive Offenders (Pro- tected States) Act, 1915, provides that the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, is to apply as if the State of North Borneo were a British possession. This Order in Council, which was published in the Hongkong Gazette of the 15th December, 1916, was brought into force on the 1st February, 1917, by the necessary notification under Article 1. This notification was published in the Hongkong Gazette of the 27th April, 1917. In consequence of the above legislation the North Borneo Extradition Ordinance, 1896, Ordinance No. 1 of 1896 of the Ordinances of Hongkong, is no longer necessary, and this bill accordingly repeals it.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to amend further the War Loan

Ordinance, 1916.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the War Loan Second Amendment Ordinance, 1917, and shall be read and construed as one with the War Loan Ordinance, 1916, and with the War Loan Amendment Ordinance, 1917, and this Ordinance and the said Ordinances may be cited together as the War Loan Ordinances, 1916 and 1917.

2. Section 4 of the War Loan Ordinance, 1916, is repealed and the following section is substituted there- for :-

Redemption.

4.-(1.) Subject to the provisions of sub- sections (2) to (8), both inclusive, of this section, the bonds shall be redeemable at par on the 1st day of November, 1928, from and after which date all interest on the principal moneys represented thereby shall cease and determine, whether payment of the principal shall have been demanded or not.

(2.) At any time or times after the 31st day of October, 1921, the Governor may approve of the redemption by purchase of bonds of such denominations and to such respective total nominal values as he may from time to time determine.

(3.) At any time or times after the 31st day of October, 1921, the Governor may appoint a day for the drawing by lot of bonds of such denominations and to such respective total nominal values as he may from time to time determine.

(4.) If a day is appointed by the Governor for drawing, the Colonial Treasurer shall give, by advertisement in the Gazette, not less than fifteen days previous notice, specifying the day on which, and the hour and place at which, the drawing will take place, and the denominations and respective total nominal values of the bonds to be drawn.

(5.) On the day and at the hour and place so specified the Colonial Treasurer shall hold a meeting, at which the holder of any bond may, if he think fit, be present, and shall then in the presence of such bond holders, if any, ́ as may attend, draw by lot, out of the whole number of bonds for the time being outstanding of the respective denominations specified, bonds to such respective total nominal values as shall have been specified.

(6.) The Colonial Treasurer shall there- upon declare the distinguishing numbers of the bonds drawn for redemption, and shall, as soon as may be, by advertisement in the Gazette, specify those numbers and appoint a day, not being earlier than fifteen days from the day of the drawing and not being later than the day ou which the then current half-year's interest is payable, on which the principal moneys repre- sented by the bonds so distinguished will be repaid.

(7.) On the day so appointed there shall be paid to the holders of the bonds drawn for redemption, at the head office of the Hong- keng and Shanghai Banking Corporation, the principal moneys repesented by those bonds, with all interest payable thereon up to that day.

- 205

(8) From and after the day appointed for the repayment of any bond all interest on the principal moneys represented thereby shall cease and determine, whether payment of the principal shall have been demanded or not.

3. Section 7 of the War Loan Ordinance, 1916, is Amendment amended by the substitution of the words and figures of Ordi-

31st day of October" for the words and figures day of November in the first and second lines thereof.

30th of 1916,

nance No. 12.

s. 7.

Objects and Reasons.

It has been pointed out by the Crown Agents that the War Loan Ordinance, 1916, makes all interest cease on drawn bonds from the date of the drawing. The effect of this would be that a bond holder might not be able to claim his principal and interest so promptly as to avoid a certain loss of interest on the amount so claimed. It has therefore been decided to provide that at least fifteen days notice of the numbers drawn shall be given before the date on which the interest ceases to run.

The bill also provides for the mode of drawing in more detail than the principal Ordinance. It was originally intended that these details should be directed by the Governor under section 11 of the principal Ordinance, but it seems convenient to include them in this bill.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　The pro- visions are based on the model of the General Loan and Inscribed Stock Orlinauce which is used in the case of loans domiciled with the Crown Agents.

The bill also corrects a discrepancy between the princi- pal Ordinance and the prospectus of the loan as to the date of redemption for bouds not previously redeemed by drawing or purchase. The date adopted in the bill is the 1st November, 1928, which was the date specified in the prospectus.

Objects and Reasons,

The object of this bill is to make all male British subjects between the ages of 18 and 55 who are ordi- narily resident in Colony, with certain exceptions which are specified in clause 2, liable to military service in the Colony when called up for such service.

Every person called up for military service under the Ordinance will, upon service of the notice calling him up, become ipso facto a member of the new Hongkong Defence Corps which is established by the Ordinance, and, subject to any regulations made by the Governor in Council, will become and remain subject to the Army Act.

Power is taken to accept for military service male British subjects who would otherwise be exempt from such service on account of their age or for any other reason. Persons so accepted will be required to take the oath or declaration of allegiance and to sign an enrolment form, and they will thereupon become mem- bers of the Hongkong Defence Corps, and will remain members until discharged or dismissed or exempted by the Governor in Council, and, as such will, subject to any regulations made by the Governor in Council, be- come and remain subject to the Army Act.

Persons who reach the age of fifty-five years while members of the Hongkong Defence Corps will be discharged upon reaching that age unless they elect to continue subject to military service. If they so elect, they will take the oath or declaration of allegiance and sign the enrolment form, and they will then remain members of the Corps until discharged or dismissed or exempted.

It will be seen that no person who has attained the age of fifty-five years will be made subject to military service against his will, but that if he once accepts such liability he will remain subject to it until he is dis- charged or dismissed or exempted.

Power is given to the Governor in Council to exempt any person from military service on the ground of physi- cal unfitness or for any other reason. Any person so exempted may be called up later for service in the dis- cretion of the Governor in Council.

Provision

with respect to writs issued against eneiny in certain cases.

5 & 6 Geo. 5, c. 36, s. 1.

INTITULED

An Ordinance to facilitate Legal Proceedings

against Enemies in certain cases.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Legal Pro- ceedings against Enemies Ordinance, 1917.

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

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

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

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

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

(6.) This section applies to cases where

(a) the plaintiff is a British subject and is en- titled for the time being to bring an action in the Supreme Court; and

(b) the defendant or one of the defendants is an

enemy; and

(c) the writ is indorsed only with a claim for a declaration as to the effect of the present war on rights or liabilities of the plaintiff or defendant under a contract entered into be- fore the outbreak thereof; and

(d) there is written evidence of the contract.

349

3. For the purposes of this Ordinance :

Interpreta- tion.

(a) the expression "enemy means any persons 5 & 6 Geo. 5,

or body of persons of whatever nationality 36, s. 2. resident or carrying on business in an enemy country, but does not include persons of enemy nationality who are neither resident nor carrying on business in an enemy coun- try: and

(b) the expression

outbreak of war" shall, as respects any enemy, be construed as refer- ring to the date of the outbreak of war with the enemy country in which the enemy is resident or carrying on business; and (e) the expression British subject" includes a corporation incorporated in His Majesty's Dominions.

4. Nothing in this Ordinance shall prejudice or Saving. interfere with any powers of the court to give leave to 5 & 6 Geo. 5, issue a writ of summons or to adjourn, postpone, or e. 36. s. 3. otherwise deal with, any proceedings on any claim against an enemy, and the court may, if it appears on any proceedings in a case where an enemy service order has been made that for any reason the case cannot properly be dealt with under this Ordinance, dismiss the case, without prejudice to any subsequent proceedings in the

same matter.

Objects and Reasons.

The object of this bill is to introduce here the provi- sions of the Legal Proceedings against Enemies Act, 1915, 5 and 6 Geo. 5, c. 36.

An Ordinance to amend the Liquors Consolida-

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Liquors Ordi- nance, 1917, and shall be read and construed as one with the Liquors Consolidation Ordinance, 1911, and the said Ordinance and this Ordinance may be cited together as the Liquors Ordinances, 1911 and 1917.

(e) any sale in accordance with the conditions of his licence by the holder of a restaurant adjunct licence.

4. Where any intoxicating liquor is sold by a servant or employee in contravention of section 3 of this Ordi- nance the employer, whether a natural person or a body corporate, shall be deemed to be guilty of an offence against this Ordinance unless he proves affirmatively that the sale was against his express orders and without his consent or conaivance.

5. Every person to whom any liquor is supplied in contravention of this Ordinance shall also be guilty of an offence against this Ordinance.

6. In proving the sale of intoxicating liquor for the purpose of any prosecution under this Ordinance it shall not be necessary to show that any consideration had actually been given or promised if the magistrate is satisfied that a transaction in the nature of a sale as defined in this Ordinance actually took place.

7. Every person who is guilty of an offence against this Ordinance shall be liable upon summary conviction to a fine not exceeding two hundred and fifty dollars.

A BILL

INTITULED

Short title.

Interpreta- tion.

Rules.

An Ordinance to provide for the licensing and control of places where persons are lodged for hire.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Boarding House Ordinance, 1917.

2.--(1.) In this Ordinance the term "boarding house shall include every place where any person is harboured or lodged for any kind whatsoever of hire or reward and where any domestic service whatsoever is rendered by the owner, lessee, principal tenant, occupier, or master, to the person so harboured or lodged: provided that the term shall not include any boarding house for non- Chinese seamen within the meaning of the Merchant Shipping Ordinance, 1899.

such place;

(b) forcibly enter any such place and every part

thereof;

obstruction to any such search;

Saving of Ordinances Nos. 10 of 1899, 1 of 1903, 9 of 1911, 19 of 1915, and 30 of 1915.

382

8. Nothing in this Ordinance shall limit the opera- tion of any of the following Ordinances or of any Ordi- nance amending or substituted for any of the said Ordinances :-

(a) The Merchant Shipping Ordinance, 1899; (b) The Public Health and Buildings Ordinance,

1903;

(c) The Liquors Consolidation Ordinance, 1911; (d) The Travellers Restriction Ordinance, 1915; (e) The Asiatic Emigration Ordinance, 1915.

Objects and Reasons.

The general object of the bill is to provide powers for the licensing and better control of hotels, boarding houses and all places where persons are lodged for hire. These are all included in the bill under the generic term "boarding house".

The various kinds of "boarding house", as defined in the bill, over which a certain amount of control is exercised at present may be classified as follows:-

(1.) European hotels.

(2.) European restaurants.

(3.) Chinese hotels.

(4.) Chinese restaurants.

(5.) Chinese eating houses.

(6.) Boarding houses where assisted emigrants

may be lodged.

(7.) Seamen's boarding houses for non-Chinese.

(8.) Common lodging houses.

The 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th classes are licensed under the Liquors Consolidation Ordinance, 1911, the objects of the provisions under which they are licensed being (a) the control of the trade in liquor and (b) revenue considerations. The 6th class is licensed under the Asiatic Emigration Ordinance, 1915, and the object is to secure compliance with the law relating to emigra- tion. The 3rd class is licensed under the latter Ordi- nance and also sometimes under the Liquors Consolida- tion Ordinance, 1911. The 7th class is licensed under the Merchant Shipping Ordinance, 1899, the object being to secure the welfare of seamen. The 8th class is registered under the Public Health and Buildings Ordi- nance, 1903, and the object is to ensure proper sanitary conditions.

An examination of the above statement of the existing machinery discloses at least two defects in the system.

One is that there is no really appropriate form of licence or registration for Chinese hotels and boarding houses which neither sell liquors nor supply meals to non-residents, though as a matter of fact Chinese restau- rant licences have been issued to such places.

The other is that licensing under the Asiatic Emigra- tion Ordinance, 1915, is not wholly suitable for the better class of Chinese hotel, as the objects of that Ordinance are confined to preventing abuses with regard to the treatment of emigrants.

The draft rules published with this bill deal with the above points and will place on a more satisfactory foot-. ing the control of such Chinese "boarding houses as fall within the scope of the rules.

Other classes of "boarding house" may be dealt with under subsequent rules if it appears desirable to do so.

J. H. KEMP,

Attorney General.

ment.

Objects and Reasons.

The main object of this bill is to prohibit the sale, except for cash, of intoxicating liquors to be consumed. on any licensed premises, unless such sale is to a resi- dent at an hotel, or is of liquor to be consumed at a bonâ fide meal at an hotel or restaurant.

The opportunity is taken to make two slight changes in the provisions of the principal Ordinance relating to import and export statements. One is to provide that import and export statements relating to intoxicating liquor must be on a separate form from all other returns so that it will not be possible to require the Superin- tendent laboriously to collect the necessary particulars from the ships' manifests which are furnished to him under a different Ordinance and for an entirely different purpose. Another change is the insertion of a provision. requiring the furnishing of nil" returns, i... returns to the effect that no liquor has been imported or exported on the ship in question, to be used in cases where no such importation or exportation has taken place. At present the obligation is to furnish returns where liquor has been imported or exported. These alterations will not really throw any fresh burden on ship owners as it is already the general practice to furnish liquor returns on a separate form and to furnish "nil" returns. The bill provides special forms for these returns.

394

The opportunity is also taken to repeal certain pro- visions in the Liquors Consolidation Ordinance, 1911, requiring the publication in Chinese of all regulations relating to dealers licences, Chinese restaurant licences and brewery licences. These provisions are considered

unnecessary.

Objects and Reasons.

This bill proposes to require all Fire and Marine Insurance Companies which carry on business in this Colony to make a deposit with the Registrar of Companies to the amount or value of $100,000. The object is to check the growth of mushroom companies which have no sound financial basis.

As the subject is a technical one which affects the general public only indirectly it does not seem necessary to explain in detail the provisions of this measure. They can be seen in the bill itself and in the regulations in the schedule.

LOCAL NOTICE TO MARINERS, No. 181.

CHINA SEA.

TIENTSIN DISTRICT.

Gulf of Pechili.

Winter Navigation of Taka Bar and of the Haiho; System of supplying information concerning Ice in the Gulf of Pechili.

　　　NOTICE is hereby given of the following arrangements for the winter navigation of the Taku Bar and the Haiho:

General.

　　　After the removal of the Taku Light-vessel, on or at any time after the 1st December, her place will be taken by an ice-breaker to the following extent and showing lights as described hereunder.

At the commencement of the winter season, i.e., immediately after the removal of the Taku Light-vessel, an ice-breaker will continuously act as light-vessel so long as ice- breaking operations are not needed.

　　　When such operations are needed, the continuous occupancy of the light-vessel's position by the ice-breaker will cease. When possible, however, an ice-breaker will act as light-vessel for a few hours before the expected arrival of a steamer.

Ice Conditions.

　　　When ice exists, information concerning conditions will be telegraphed to Chefoo and Dairen. Vessels bound for Taku should call at one of these ports for it.

　　　A vessel arriving off Taku, whose agent has given the necessary notice as laid down herein, will, if conditions permit, find an ice-breaker in the position of the light-vessel. The ice-master will inform the ship-master of conditions. If the ship-master decides to

494

proceed, a pilot will, if desired, be placed on board from the ice-breaker. At a suitable time the ice-breaker will, if necessary, lead the way in, and, in doing so, will make such instructive signals concerning the steamer's action as the ice-master considers desirable.

　　　It should be understood that when the ice-master makes such a signal the master of a following steamer is free to use his discretion as to obeying that signal so far as consi- derations concerning the safety of his own vessel are concerned. It would, however, be well for him to consider what would be the effect of disregarding the signal if that disre- gard affected the safety of the ice-breaker or of a third vessel.

　　　It should be clearly understood that the Harbour Authority, under whose authority the ice-breakers operate, incur no responsibility in respect to accidents which may happen. in the process of following an ice-breaker. A vessel accepting the services of an ice- breaker in the above conditions does so always at her own risk.

PARTICULARS.

Ice-breaking Signals.

An ice-breaker leading the way and steamers following shall make use of the follow- ing signals:-

One short blast

meaning I am altering my course to starboard.

Two short blasts Three short blasts

port.

وو

My engines are going astern.

((a.) Can I pass ahead of you?

One long blast

Three long blasts Five long blasts

(b.) (From an ice-breaker ahead) You are requested

to pass ahead of me.

Come on.

Keep back.

A vessel requiring the assistance of an ice-breaker should make the following signal:-

By day. A pennant with two balls beneath it; also a succession of one long

and three short blasts on the whistle or siren.

By night.-Three lights in a vertical line one over the other not less than 6 feet apart, of which the highest and lowest are white and the middle one red; also a succession of one long and three short blasts on the whistle or siren.

Ice-breaker acting as Light-vessel.

When acting as a light-vessel the ice-breaker will show---

LOCAL NOTICE TO MARINERS, No. 492.

CHINA SEA.

Ichang and Chungking Districts Yangtze River.

THE difficulties and dangers attending steam navigation of the Upper Yangtze between Ichang and Chungking have been given much attention during recent years by the Marine Department and the Upper River Inspector, and the experience gained both from successful and unsuccessful navigation has enabled certain data concerning the construction and fitting of Upper Yangtze River steamers to be collected and recorded. Under instructions from the Inspector General of Customs this information is now pub- lished in the form of Recommendations concerning the construction and fitting of Upper Yangtze steamers, in the hope that they may be of assistance to those engaged or about to engage in the trade and that, by following them, risk to the travelling public may be reduced to a minimum. The Recommendations should not be departed from in the case of projected new vessels without consultation with the Coast Inspector or the Upper Yangtze River Inspector.

Recommendations Concerning the Construction and Fitting of Upper Yangtze Steamers.

1. Limit of Size. --The dimensions of a steamer for running at all stages of the river, when steam navigation is possible, should not exceed:-

Length Breadth Depth

210 feet 0.A.

35 moulded.

91,,

2. Speed. The speed of steamers should not be less than as follows:---

Steamers under 80 feet in length

Steamers of lengths 80 to 130 feet

10 knots.

Steamers of lengths 130 to 210 feet

　　　These are the minimum speeds for safe navigation through races, whirlpools, and minor rapids, but are insufficient to push up over the main rapids without having recourse to warping.

　　　Vessels intended to proceed over the main rapids under their own steam must have considerably more power than that provided for in these Recommendations.

　　　3. Hull Model.--The hull should be of the light-draught, flat-bottom type, with spoon bow or well cut-away forefoot and clean or long run aft to ensure good steering.

　　　4. Watertight Compartments.---The hull should be divided into watertight compart- ments of such numbers and dimensions that the vessel will keep afloat with two com- partments flooded. The engine and boiler rooms should be in separate watertight compartments.

5. Boilers.-Vessels over 130 feet in length should have two boilers.

6. Engines. All vessels should be of the twin-screw type.

　　　7. Steering Gear.Vessels having a beam of more than 22 feet should be fitted with three rudders, others with at least two, and they should be so ruddered that they will, at full speed, turn in a circle having a diameter of not more than twice the length of the vessel.

　　　8. Steam Steering Gear.-Vessels of more than 130 feet in length should be fitted with steam steering gear in addition to an effective hand gear. The hand gear should be so fitted as to be immediately available.

513

9. Warping Gear.--All vessels should be fitted with a powerful steam capstan on the fore deck for warping purposes.

A pair of fairlead rollers or strong metal sheaved blocks should be fitted abaft the bluff on either bow for fairleading the wire warping rope to the capstan.

The fore deck in the wake of the capstan and leads should be clear of obstructions.

10. Hull. The hull should be built of mild steel throughout.

11. Decks. Main decks should be of steel to give additional structural strength.

12. The following details should exceed in scantling that required for ordinary river steamers :-

(a.) Bilge plating.

(b.) Stern tubes and brackets and the hull in wake of them.

(c.) Shafts and shaft bearings and fittings.

(d.) Propellers: these should be of bronze or brass.

(e.) Rudders and rudder posts and frames.

(f.) Steering gear.

　　　13. The shafts should be cased in to the after bracket and provision made for preventing sand entering the casing and for efficient lubrication.

14. Water-tube Boilers. -Vessels fitted with water-tube boilers should have efficient evaporators and/or filters for supplying clean feed water.

　　　15. Auxiliary Engines. Circulating, feed, and air pumps should be worked by independent auxiliary engines.

　　　16. Bunker Doors.--Coal bunkers should be watertight spaces, and all doors and apertures thereto should be watertight.

　　　17. Capstan and Windlass.-In smaller vessels the steam capstan may be fitted with a gipsy for anchor work. In larger ones a windlass is required in addition to the capstan.

18. Fend-off Spar Fittings.A clear space of 10 to 20 feet on the fore and after parts of the main deck is necessary for working the fend-off spars in and out board when mooring in places where there is no anchorage.

　　　The railing on either side in the wake of the spar spaces should be made portable, or, in case of bulwarks, gangway doors should be fitted.

Ring-bolts should also be fitted on either side of the deck for the spar tackles.

Two spare fend-off spars should be provided.

　　　19. Boats.-Sampans of the Ichang type should be carried in place of ordinary ships' boats; two on small vessels and four on large.

20. Outfit.--The following special gear should be carried :

(a.) Two flexible steel wire ropes, each 120 fathoms long, fitted on brake wheels. These should be from 1 to 24 inches in circumference, according to the size of the vessel.

(b.) A collision mat.

(c.) Material for temporary repairs to hull, i.e., a steel plate, some angle irons,

bolts and nuts, and tools.

(d.) Two kedges with 120 fathoms of wire rope on each, for stern moorings.

2o. The Signals are hoisted at the yard-arms and masthead of the Storm Signal Mast

Typhoon and Continental 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 and/or

(c.) 1 symbol at the masthead showing the time the warning was issued by

the Observatory (see Table No. 4).

539

Gale Signals:

(d.) 1 symbol at one yard-arm showing the region threatened (see Table No. 5). (e.) 2 symbols at the other yard-arm showing the general direction of the

wind (see Table No. 1).

(f.) 1 symbol at the masthead showing the time the warning was issued by

the Observatory (see Table No. 4).

　The two upper symbols of group (a) indicate by their corresponding numbers the latitude and the two lower symbols the longitude of the centre of a circle of specified size within which the centre of the typhoon or depression lies. The symbols for longitude give the units and tens only; thus, 32 indicates longitude 132.

　The two upper symbols of group (b) indicate the direction in which the typhoon is travelling (see Table No. 1) or, alternately, certain conditions of the typhoon (see Table No. 2). The third and lowest symbol of group (b) indicates the radius of the circle whose centre is shown by the latitude and longitude. This symbol may also indicate degree of intensity. In the case of a continental depression it indicates that it is such, and the corresponding latitude and longitude is the centre of an indefinite area affected. (See Table No. 3.)

Caution. It should be clearly understood that the position indicated by the latitude and longitude signalled does not purport to be the position of the centre of the typhoon. It indicates merely the centre of a circle of a specified radius within which the centre of the typhoon is believed to lie.

Table No. 1.-Direction Signals.

It is important that seamen should realise that the position of the centre of the typhoon as signalled is the position according to the data possessed by the Observatory at the time of the issue of the warning. That data may be as much as 12 hours old. Thus, if the time signal indicates that the warning was issued "This morning," it may be that the position corresponds to data concerning yesterday afternoon.

　　　If the signal "Deepening" is made, it indicates that there is reason to believe that the barometric gradient and, consequently, the intensity of the typhoon are increasing.

If the signal "Exceptional velocity" is made, it indicates that there is reason to believe that the rate of progression is 25 per cent. or more greater than the average rate. If the signal "Position uncertain" is made, it indicates that the data possessed is unreliable and that the position signalled is a mere probability.

　　　The several tracks which a typhoon may follow in the several months are very varied, and the velocity of progression is liable to be erratic. It is not safe to count on a typhoon maintaining a velocity indicated by previous positions of its centre. The volocity is liable to increase very suddenly. Seamen are recommended to study from available sources the tracks and average velocities for the month and locality concerned. In the absence of more exact information the following table of velocities in knots for the several latitudes may be useful.

　　　Seamen should realise that, whatever may be the probability of a certain velocity in a given case, there is always the possibility that it may be greatly exceeded. The safest guide is to make allowance for extreme velocity.
