Sir.
I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your letter

able that the Hongkong Office of this Bank should be permitted
further to increase its issue of one-dollar notes up to a
limit of 2,000,000.
I note that the remission of the tax of one per cent,
which was waived for the period of the war, is not to be con-
tinued after the end of the war.
I am, Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
