same, for the purpose of keeping up communication with Tuchow, and supplying them with food and necessities.
In view of the undesirability of evacuating Wuchow until absolutely essential, of the valuable British property at Wuchow, and of the necessity of supplying H.M.S."Moorhan" Armed Launches, and the foreign
communities at Konkman and Shanshui with food I considered
it necessary to commission H.M.S. "Tung Kwong" as reported in my submission Mo.294/053/35, dated 2nd August 1925, for this service, as no other craft was suitable or
available.
I directed H.H. S. "Moorhen" to proceed to tuchow
and to report as to the necessity of evacuation if supplies
continued to be sent to Wuchow, and meanwhile despatched
H.M.S. "Tung Kwong" to Wuchow with coal and supplies.
On 27th July "Moorhen" reported that the
situation at Wuchowwas easier and that the boycott was merely
anti-British and Japanese. The British Consulate had been
broke into but the Consular office was untouched and that
General Wong had arrested five men and placed a guard
over the Consulate. This matter is being further enquired
into by "Moorhen" and a report forwarded to H. B. M. Consul
General at Canton,
On 1st August "Moorhen" reported further that it was unnecessary to evacuate Wuchow at present and that "Tung Kwong" was being sent Back for further supplies.
The general situation at Wuchow is peaceful and there would appear to be no untoward insidents to report. The anti-British bogbott is very intense and it is most noticeable that Americans are allowed to purchase and use anything they like without restriction.
