It still has power, based largely 011 the funds accumulated in the months of its ascendency and the personality of some of its leaders, but its influence is waning, its hand has been seen in nearly every labour trouble of the year: but it has had to struggle to retain even iis welcome as a meddler and has Failed to organise the combination of all labour societies which is now its principal aim. Its two principal allies the Kong \g Liin Shun Kung Pi and the .flip Tsun Tsung Kung Ui have been suppressed owing to their illegal actions. It has been curious to note the growth of a new Chinese Labour vocabulary during the year,: Chinese, even illiterate, can be very voluble orators and their speeches are peppered copiously with the new phrases for "capital" and "labour1' and the like, and illustrated freely with comparisons between the sale of labour and ordinary commodities, for which-a box of matches does splendid service...”

Closing oj Guilds.As a result of Iheir interference with the food supplies of the Colony the Hip Tsun Tsung Kung She cooks and servants I'nion was declared an unlawful Society by Government Proclamation on 1.4th December, and closed. The only other Union which was declared unlawful was the notorious Kong Ng Lun Shun I\ung Wui, which was prescribed on loth October, 1922. This society though nominally the Union of the Hongkong and Wuchow Steamer employees had got into bad hands and formed the chief resort of the criminal classes in the Colony. It was therefore with great relief that the general bulk of the Chinese population of the Colony witnessed the closing down of the society, whose evil reputation dates back for many years. 7. 0u.tbre

Inspection.s*.My work being now confined to the New Territories, I have been able to pay 2 visits during the year to each of the Subsidised Schools, (except those few that are not too easily reached), once before the Summer Vacation, and once after. It is fairly gratifying that only 3 schools out of the 01 were found where the teachers were not at work during school hours. These were at Shek Kong, Un Long and Pok Wai, and each of these schools had to forfeit 1 quarter's Subsidy. I also visited each Non-Subsidised School at least once, and those that were put on the Subsidy List recently were visited by me at least twice during the year. 9.

“...- R 4 It will be remembered that during the early part o the year tinder report a prolonged shipping strike affected the Colony and had it not been for this the stamp sales would have been much greater. No one who knows the Post Office on ordinary occasions will ever forget that Black Monday when only some 23 letters were posted in Hongkong and none were received. The balance of total revenue over total postal expenditure amounted to $404,746.54. It is gratifying to note that the Hong- kong Post Office is one of the very few in the world which has not been compelled to increase its rate of postage since 1914. It is thought that only the United States and China are in the same happy ijosition. There were some trivial changes of rates during the year. The postcard rate to China was increased from cents to 2 cents in order to conform to the Chinese domestic rate, and the rate from Hongkong to Canton was varied from 2 cents the hall: ounce to 4 cents an ounce. The newspaper rate which was...”
