United States Supreme Court
95 U.S. 297
Transportation Line v. Hope
ERROR to the Circuit Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
This was an action on the case by Hope, the plaintiff below, to recover damages for the loss of the canal barge or vessel 'Mary E. Loughney,' her cargo, and for freight there n. The plaintiff alleges, in substance, that he delivered the barge, valued at $3,000, to the defendant, to be towed, for a certain sum to be paid therefor, from Jersey City to New Haven; and that, by reason of gross and culpable negligence, and the want of ordinary care and skill of the defendant in towing and conducting the barge, she became totally lost. The defendant pleaded the general issue. The jury found for the plaintiff for $2,125.30; and, judgment having been rendered thereon, the defendant brought the case here.
The remaining facts, the charge as given and that refused, as well as the assignment of errors, are set forth in the opinion of the court.
Mr. J. C. Gray for the plaintiff in error.
No counsel appeared for the defendant in error.
MR. JUSTICE HUNT delivered the opinion of the court.

# Twentieth Century Impressions of Hongkong, Shanghai, and other Treaty Ports of China/The Rev. G. H. Bateson Wright

THE REV. G. H. BATESON WRIGHT, D.D. (Oxon.).—Seated quietly at his desk, or presiding over his classes, the gentleman who, for upwards of twenty-six years, has been the headmaster of Queen's College, has, perhaps, done more than any of his contemporaries towards the formation of that sterling character which so distinguishes the educated Chinese of Hongkong. The histories of many of the Colony's greatest men may be read in her stones and thoroughfares, in her docks and wharves, in the innumerable outward and tangible evidences of her commercial prosperity; but the history of Dr. George Henry Bateson Wright is writ even more legibly upon the lengthening human scroll issuing from Hongkong's leading academy. The second son of the late George Bache Wright, of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's London office, and grandson of Augustus Wright, storekeeper of the magazine, Priddy's Hard, Gosport, during the Crimean War, Dr. Wright was born in 1853. He was educated at Queen's College, Oxford, where he graduated B.A., with second-class Theological Honours, in June, 1875. He gained the Denver and Johnson Scholarship and the Kennicott Hebrew Scholarship in 1876, and, in the following year, the Syriac Prize and the Pusey and Elerton Scholarship. He was ordained at Worcester a Deacon (Gospel) in 1877, and became Curate of Ladbroke, Warwickshire. In the following year he was admitted to the priesthood, again heading the list of candidates, and subsequently held the curacies of Christ Church, Bradford, and St. Peter's, Bournemouth. For a time he was a private tutor at Oxford, and in 1881 he was appointed headmaster of Queen's College. He proceeded to the degree of B.D. in February, 1891, and by grace of Convocation was allowed to take the degree of D.D. in May of the same year, when he was only thirty-eight years of age. In 1884 he published a work entitled "A Critical Edition of the Book of Job," whilst in 1895 he published "Was Israel ever in Egypt?" Dr. Wright is married and lives at "Ladbroke," No. 9, Conduit Road. His recreation lies in his work.

2758 (XXVI). Restoration of the lawful rights of the People's Republic of China in the United Nations
The General Assembly,
Recalling the principles of the Charter of the United Nations,
Considering the restoration of the lawful rights of the People's Republic of China is essential both for the protection of the Charter of the United Nations and for the cause that the United Nations must serve under the Charter,
Recognizing that the representatives of the Government of the People's Republic of China are the only lawful representatives of China to the United Nations and that the People's Republic of China is one of the five permanent members of the Security Council,
Decides to restore all its rights to the People's Republic of China and to recognize the representatives of its Government as the only legitimate representatives of China to the United Nations, and to expel forthwith the representatives of Chiang Kai-shek from the place which they unlawfully occupy at the United Nations and in all the organizations related to it.

# United Nations General Assembly Resolution 27

27. World Shortage of Cereals
The damage caused by war and the dislocation of agricultural production resulting from the shortage and dislocation of labor, the removal of draught animals, the shortage of fertilizers and other circumstances connected with the war have caused a serious fall in world production of wheat. In addition, a large number of countries, including some of those which are normally the largest producers of grain, have suffered serious droughts and have therefore reaped abnormally small crops. The supply of rice is also so short as to threaten a famine in certain areas. There is, moreover, a serious risk of grain production in the coming season being insufficient to prevent continuing hunger. For these reasons the world is faced with conditions which may cause widespread suffering and death and consequently set back all plans for reconstruction.
The General Assembly therefore:
    1. Urges all governments and peoples to take immediate and drastic action, both directly and through the international organizations concerned, to conserve supplies, by securing adequate collection of crops from the producers, by saving food and avoiding waste, and to ensure the maximum production of grain in the coming season;
    2. Notes that several of the United Nations have recently announced measures to reserve grain supplies for direct human consumption and to secure increased production;
    3. Urges all governments to publish as full information as possible regarding their own supplies and requirements of cereals and the steps they have taken or are prepared to take to achieve the objectives expressed in paragraph 1;
    4. Requests the international organizations concerned with food and agriculture to publish full information in their possession on the world food position and the future outlook, and to intensify efforts to obtain as full information as possible on this subject, in order to assist governments in determining their short term and long term agricultural policy.
