Addressed to F.0. telegram No. 340 of 23 April Repeated for information to:
Hong Kong.
My telegram No. 338: Grey.
Foreign Press are aware that a visit will take place this afternoon. It will therefore be impossible to hold publicity at this end until tomorrow. I am therefore seeing Western Press correspondents at 6 p.m. this evening when I shall inform them of the visit, with appropiate details as in my telegram under reference.
Please ensure that Mrs. Grey and Reuters are informed at once that the visit will take place this afternoon.
