Thank you for the interesting account in your letter of
attached
30 July of the recent visit by the Select Committee on Defence
to Washington, Tokyo and Hong Kong, and by some members of the
Committee to Peking. I am most grateful. I am asking Francis Pym.
and John Nott to look at the points you make so that they are
fully taken account of in the preparations for my visit to the
Far East in September.
Yourrure
