war
The interned men are at present on board the
Admiralty receiving ship *Tamar* at Hongkong, but the Admiralty have
intimated that this arrangement can only be regarded as temporary and
Mr Lyttelton considers that it would be best - if the *Tamar* cannot be spared for
the purpose - to intern them on land.
Draft telegram to Hongkong is as follows: "State whether you concur in the
draft telegram to Admiralty and to Officer Commanding at Hongkong."
Mr Lyttelton has been in communication with the Foreign Office regarding
the Russian ships which the officials should transfer and the incidence of
the cost of their internment. A copy of a letter from the FO dated
23 August, and of the reply from the Admiralty are enclosed.
I am to request that the LC may be moved to give their sanction for the expenditure by the Hongkong Government on behalf of HMS, and of such other expenses.
