especially in view of the League of Nations
Commission. It seems to be for the Secretary
of State to decide whether he is prepared to
take the matter up. On the whole my personal
inclination is to pursue the Governor's proposal.
If we do so I think we should be prepared to
press it whole-heartedly. If we cannot do
that it will be far better to reject it immediately
and so get some credit with Sir Malcolm Delevingne
instead of sending it for his observations and
weakly agreeing to its rejection when he makes
some show of opposition.
If it is agreed to support Sir C.
Clementi, I would propose in the first place
to send a copy of the despatch to Sir Malcolm Delevingne semi officially with a letter
expanding arguments in favour of the proposal
outlined above. A copy of the letter and
despatch should be sent to Mr. Mounsey, Foreign
Office.
