sir,
I am directed by Secretary Sir Austen

for the formation of an Appeal Court at Hongkong.

I am to enquire whether there is any objection
to the Assistant Judge at Shanghai sitting as a member
of the Appeal Court at Hongkong when the Judge of
His Majesty's Supreme Court for China is not available.
I am,
Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
The Under Secretary of State,
