The Under-Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs presents his compliments to the Secretary to the Board of Trade, and, with reference to the undated letter from the Board, is directed by the
Secretary of State to inform him that no objection
is seen to the issue of a licence for the export of the goods to which the application No. E.L. 234992
enclosed therein relates.
2. The goods in question being for the use of the Shanghai Municipal Council and therefore for the defence of the International Settlement, the Secretary of State is of the opinion that the countersignature of
the Chinese Ambassador is not required.
