Many thanks for
Department
I am replying to your letter of, 10 September about Mrs. Elsie Elliott's allegations of corruption in Hong Kong. The position concerning your letter of 15 July is that I have referred the matter to the Governor and
now await his comments. I shall write to you again as soon as I receive them.
In As regar common the
to this latior.
frasion that you
have received From Ing Elliott, there really-is
полдиму nothing that I can add to my letter to you of 10 May. Mro. Plliott speaks in general terms and quotes anonymous cases and quite frankly I do not feel justified in referring/letters of this kind to the hard pressed Hong Kong authorities. I note that she has sent the letter to you for your information only and it is quite likely that a number of other busy people have also received copies. I really do not think that the letter calls for any
action on my part.
