GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 25th April, 1917.
Sin, I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of the report, dated the 20th April, by the Military Service Commissioners in the matter of the enquiry upon which they have been engaged.
2. I desire to express my thanks to the Commissioners for their valuable work, with its resultant addition of no inconsiderable force for service with His Majesty's Armies: work which has, to my personal knowledge, involved much patient labour.
3. With reference to paragraph 8 of the report I propose shortly to make a pro- nouncement in the Legislative Council regarding the subject of Military Service in relation to this Colony.
4. The report will be published in the Gazette of the 4th May, a copy will be for- warded to the Secretary of State for the Colonies forthwith, and copies will be laid upon the table of the Legislative Council at its next meeting.
I have the honour to be,
The Honourable
Mr. E. H. SHARP, K.C.,
Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Sd.)
F. H. MAY,
Governor, &c.
Chairman, Military Service Commission.
