There can be no question of introducing Amending
Bill this session as it is not possible in present
conditions to decide in what respects present act
should be amended, But thic need not effect the
creation of, the proposed provisional committee which
can be constituted without any legislation here. We
approve your proposal to ask I Shih to sound Tsai,
Wang Chung-hui also Tsu Min-yi, unless we revert to
former proposal of inviting Dr. Tsai to nominate the
sixth monbor.
We agree regretfully that it is advisable to omit
Ting. If when Chinese members are completed we should
propose to obtain British members. From your telegram
No.633 we understand you have approached Young and Miss Spicer. Have they accepted? Have you approached
any others? Delme probably available.
