My dear Dr. Pearce,
282
International Missionary Council,
Edinburgh House, 2 Eaton Gate, London.
7th December, 1921. (S.W.1.)
I have been giving further attention to your important letter of the 21st September, which we have
previously acknowledged. We must, of course, wait until
you receive further information from the Hongkong Government
regarding the action which it is about to take before you
can answer fully the questions which were contained in
Mr. Oldham's letter of the 13th July. In the meantime, I
unink we should inform you more fully regarding recent
correspondence which we have received with reference to the
return of missionaries of former enemy nationality to
British colonies and mandated territories.
You are doubtless in oned regarding the
regulations adopted some time ago by the India Office
governing the admission of missionaries of alien nationality
to India. Within the last few months, the India Office has
added an additional paragraph to these regulations, which
you will find printed in full in the minutes of the
International Missionary Council, p.19, in which the
regulations are made to govern exceptional conditions in
which missionaries of former enemy nationality may be
admitted to India. The Colonial Office now informs us that
they have decided to adopt the regulations of the India
Office with reference to all the British colonies, with the
following important modifications.
The period in which German missionaries will
be prohibited from returning to these colonies is reduced
from five to three years. The additional paragraph No. 10,
referred to above, will not be applied to the colonies, but at the same time, the Secretary of State is prepared to
consider
