GOVERNMENT HOUSE,
HONG KONG,
27th September, 1929.
My Lord,
With reference to my secret despatch,
dated the 28th of June, 1929, concerning the
Chinese Telegraph Office in Hong Kong, I have the
honour to inform Your Lordship that on the 6th of
August Sir Miles Lampson telegraphed to me that he
had been informed by the Chinese Minister for
Foreign Affairs of the death of Mr. Wu Kin, and that
the Chinese Minister for Communications had designated
Mr. Lu Chih-yn to be Superintendent of the Hong Kong
office. Sir Miles added:- "I trust that this
appointment will be agreeable to you and that the
matter may thus be disposed of".
2. I replied by telegram on the 12th of
August, "Hinister for Foreign Affairs of Nationalist
Government should be requested to furnish
information concerning Lu Chih-ytin, and should be reminded, in terms of paragraph 6 of my despatch to
you, dated the 28th of June, that the post of
Superintendent of the Chinese Telegraph Office in
Hong Kong must be kept entirely clear from politics
