CHINESE SALT DUTY
NOTE TO NANKING RESTORATION REQUESTED British Official Wireless. (Received 14th September, 11 a.m.) RUGBY, 13th September. The British, Japanese', and French Legations at Pekin have sent a Joint Note to Nanking impressing on the Chinese Nationalist Government the need for the prompt and effeetivo restoration of the salt gabelle to it 3 proper functions. The Chinese salt revenue is assigned as security for various foreign loans, although its efficient reorganisation by Sir Richard Dane also served to confer immense benefits on China. With the establishment of the Nationalist Government in Nanking it was expected that the recent dislocation of the gabelle organisation would be rectified, but so far the Nanking authorities have delayed taking the steps necessary to this end.
