Who's Who in China (edisi ke-3)/Ch'e Hsien-ch'eng
Mr. Che Hin-shing was born in Hongkong in 1888, where his father was a merchant. His native district is Fang Yu Hsien, Kuangtung. At the age of 14 he entered Queen's College but left a year later to join St. Stephen's College. In 1908 he went to England and in 1911 he was matriculated as a commoner at Christ College, Cambridge, where he took the law degree. He was called to the Bar by the Honorable Society of Gray's Inn in 1915, and returned to China in 1916, after having read in chambers for one year. He was a member of various societies in England, having for their object the promotion of better relationship and understanding between Great Britain and China. Shortly after his return to China Mr, Che joined the Ministry of Communications and assisted in the codification of the Railway Laws. On the entry of China in the late War on the side of the Allies, he was assigned to deal with the protests by neutral countries concerning the dismissal of German and Austrian employees from Chinese government railways and other institutions. In 1919 when the law Codification Commission was re-organized Mr. Che was appointed one of the compilers by the President. He assisted in the drafting of the Codes of Civil and Criminal Procedures, the latter of which together with the "Regulations relating to Judicial Stamps" and "Regulations relating to Summary Criminal Procedure" he translated. In 1921 when Courts with jurisdiction over Russians in Harbin were established, Mr. Che was appointed a judge of the High Court. He was obliged, however, to leave for reasons of health owing to the severity of the climate. He was then re-appointed a member of the Law Codification Commission. In 1922 Mr. Che was appointed Chief Procurator for the Shanghai District, a position similar to that occupied by the Director of Public Prosecutions in England. He has always been interested in prison reform and since his appointment to the chief position of the Shanghai Procuratorate he has not spared himself in this branch of his work. The result of his labor in this direction is the considerable enlargement of the Detention House attached to the Procuratorate by the erection of a new building, and other reforms and improvements.
