It appears that the Commonwealth' Soccer Association was not in a sufficiently strong financial position to finance the tour, and the Chinese community in Sydney, along with a number of sporting TL No. 288.). bodies, were approached with the object JUST RECEIVED A NEW SUPPLY of getting assistance. Unfortunately, these people turned the proposition down dut, and the Commonwealth Socer Amo- ciation feared that, after having brought the Chinese team to Australi, they would not be able to arrange watches outside of n fow centres in New South Wales. It was then that a syndicate was formed by a few enthusiasts.
The position was laid before Mr. Mok and it was stated that half of any profit accruing would go to the Commonwealth Soccer Association direes and the other half would be devoted to forwarding the progress of the game. This was confirmed by Mr. A. Barlow, President of the Commonwealth Soccer Association, in speech at the reception given to the Chinese footballers.
Mr. Mok took some time to consider the matter and finally decided that, in the interests of the gains it was essential to carry on, especially, as invitations were corning in from all over Australia. for the tour to play in various centres Further, it was felt that a refusal to play would undoubtedly create a bad impres sion. regarding the Chinese team, and as one of the objects underlying the trip was the removal of many erroneous ideas re- garding China, it seemed almost impera- tive that the original scheme should be carried out. That a good impression bus been created in Australia is shown by the attitudo of the Australian public and by the fact that an Australian ling was pre- sented to the visiting Chinees team by the Commonwealth. Soccer Association. Mr. Mole laid emphasis on the point that' although the Australian tour was financed by a syndicate, arangements were made and the team's movements controlled by the Commonwealth Association. Whether Mr. Millard, who visited Hongkong and arranged the tour at this end, was sware of the syndicate arrangement, Mr. Mok was not in a position, to state.
Referring to the alleged disagreement. at Melbourne Me Mok said that there was no actual disagreement. It seems that some conflicting telegraphic instruc tions were resyed and Mr.ME rent to 8ydney for a few days in order to have. the matter straightened out. This may acount for the report that the team had been left without manager.
