CABLE ATIRES HUG KONG OFFICE
We have various cable addresses registered prior to
July 1st 1914, one of which is AEXCO.
We have now ope ed an office in Hong Kong, and we
would particularly wish to apply this same cable address to that
office.
The cable address A EXCO is known to all Commercial
and Ba king Housee, and although technically to have this address
in Hong Kong at the present time would be against the regulations
we did not suppose you would consider it as being against the
spirit of the law covering the registration of the various
addresses.
Our manager in Hong Kong had ecme conversation with
Captain Cassel who is on the Governor General's staff and
incidentally mentioned the refusal of the Cable Company to
register our cable address at that point.
