Chartered Bank Buildings,
Queen's Road Central,
Pongkong, 13th December, 1917.
I have the honour to address you with reference
to the establishment of a Chinese Newspaper in Hongkong, the necessity for whion as a medium for the expansion of British Trade in South China after the war has been engaging the
of this Chamber & the Chinese Chamber of Commeres attention
n/for some considerable time.
Special Joint Sub-Committee Meetings have been hold with the object of arriving at the best method of launch-
ing such an enterprise, and as it is understood that the
Government is in sympathy with the scheme, I am directed to
place before you the position arrived at.
It has been decided to form a limited Company
with a capital of $150,000 to be raised by members of both
Chambers as required, and the Joint Committes anticipate nc difficulty in raising the required oarital providing the acheme is backed by Government.

It is estimated that with receipts
-
Thich would form a special and energetically pushed department, although probably during the first two
or three years of running the sexspaper may not show a working profit, still with enterprise on the part of the management
and support of Commercial Houses, both European and Chinese, there is no reason to doubt its profitable working once
firmly established and tactfully worked into Chirous favour.
There will of course at the outset be a carital
expenditure on machinery, type, &c. but this it is understood
will not be ocnetdenable, although no definite figure has so
far been submitted.
With these particulars now before His Excellency
