Hong Kong's Casbah Typical
Impoverished Rural Village by
Dayf Hotbed of Vice
Hong Kong - OJPD - By day
it is a typical impoverished
rural village. By night, it is
a blatant hotbed of vice.
This split-personality is the
ancient city of Vewloon
Hong Kong's casbah.
On seeing the walled city
today, one finds it difficult to
Imagine how this apparently
undesirable six acres of real
estate could ever be a reason
for rocking the boat of Sinc-
Brttlsh relations.
It no longer even bears the
distinction of being walled
Part of its medieval ramparts
were torn down by the Japan
ese during World War II and
the remainder by Hong Kong
authorities after the war.
Nations Contend
Yet there have been a num
ber of occasions when Britain
and China contended for this
tiny enclave of narcotics
dens, brothels, gambling
joints, condemned houses and
squatters shacks.
In July last year, a heroin
den operator was murdered
inside the walled city. One
of the murderers was repre
sented by legal counsel.
The young Indian lawyer,
Abdul Hamid Suffiad, like
other Hong Kong lawyers
knew he was treading on
dangerous ground, but none
theless argued that British
laws did not apply to the wall
ed city. He applied for a writ
of habeas corpus for his client
and virtually ordered a panel
of bewigged Hong Kong su
preme court justices to turn
him loose.
Suffiad cited as authority
for his argument a clause in
an 1898 Sino-British agree
ment which was designed to
make the walled city a tiny,
Chinese-ruled enclave on Brit
ish soil. He also emphasized
that since the clause had
never been revoked by China's
rulers - Nationalists, Com
munists or otherwise - the
walled city must still be sub-
Oregon Warned on
Narcotics Problem
Salem- (CPU -The Northwest
district supervisor of the Fed
eral Bureau of Narcotics told
Oregon District Attorneys
Thursday that Oregon docs
not have a serious problem in
narcotics in comparison to
other states.
John Trainor of Seattle
said, however, Oregon lies
adjacent to California "which
has the second worst nar
cotics problem in the country,
and Vancouver, B.C., which
probably has more addicts
than any other city in Can
ada." Trainor said therefore
sources of supply for illicit
narcotic drugs are near at
hand and readily available to
the narcotic peddlers" in Ore
gon. He said the city of Port
land at one time was a focal
point for heroin and cocaine
traffic.

Jeet to Chinese jurisdiction,
not British.
Under British Law
The supreme court ruled
against him. It declared in no
uncertain terms the walled
city was an integral part of
the colony of Hong Kong and,
as such, it came under British
law. The Hong Kong colonial
government had occupied it
in 1899 on orders from the
British government In Lon
don nnd China's jurisdiction
ceased as of then, the court
said,
British residents suffered a
momentary pang of appre
hension. The defense lawyer
had prodded a sleeping dog
which the colonial govern
ment prefers to let He.
Similar frightful moments
were experienced in 1948
when rioti' broke out In the
walled city and spread to
Canton 80 miles away. The
Nationalists maintained Brit
ain had no power to govern
the walled city. They also
charged Britain acted uni
laterally in 1899 when she
took control of the walled
city, after revoking the clause
in the 1898 lease convention
intended to preserve Chinese
authority over the place.
Conceivably, the same issue
could cause trouble in tile fu
ture, if Peiplng felt like
tweaking the British lion's
tail.
The present Communist
bosses of China have express
ed no official interest in the
walled city since they seized
power in 1949.
But they could raise the
jurisdiction bugaboo for
propaganda purposes, at least
at any time, no matter what
the Hong Kong supreme court
ruled.
Agreement Not Revoked
For, like their Nationalist
predecessors, they have never
revoked the original 1898
lease agreement, nor the
clause which stipulated that
the walled city should remain
Chinese-governed.

or exotic about the walled
city. Even for the most low
browed. No neon lights wink
out In welcome ond no rock

Unwashed, rugged, bare
footed children play In the
littered, filthy alleyways that
pass for streets In the walled
city, and sail toy boats down
nauseating open drains.

humble shops that supply the

Dogs and cuts are rarely

Typical Village
By day, it seems a typical,
Impoverished rural village,
It is just a dingy collection
of gray stone hovels and
crude shacks, presenting
marked contrast to the mod

tttullon prevails behind un-
llghtcd doorways, packing
case and cardboard shacks,
and In attic brothels.
Emaciated drug addicts

called divans - to smoke
opium and take heroin. Or,
they squat In the open sniff

purchase from "pushers" for
about 17 cents (U.S.) a packet.
Leering touts lead the way

In this human jungle are the
