DOWNING STREET,

December, 1926.

Dear Mr.Widdows,

With reference to your letter 100/H/9377

(S.D.2) of 22nd November and our reply of 8th Decembe:

I should rather like to know exactly what the status

of "honorary cadets" at the Royal Military College is

and what are the rules regulating their admission -

I cannot trace any official correspondence with War

Office relative to the admission of Ho Tung to the

College.

As regards this individual I should have bee:

inclined to put the case against his being given in-

struction in the use of tanks rather more strongly

than our official letter did. I think he is just the

sort of man who might develope into a War Lord on his

return to China.

Yours very truly,

A.E. WIDDOWS, ESQ, C.B.

(Signed) WALTER D. ELLIS
