I am directed by Mr. Secretary Clynes to refer to
the seizure of Chinese opium at Hong Kong on board the armed
launch of the Kwantung Opium Suppression Bureau, which was
reported in the telegram from the Officer administrating the
Government of Hong Kong dated 15th March last, and to Foreign
Office correspondence in this matter ending with Foreign
Office letter (F.2897/119/87) of the 3rd June; and to say that
as the seizure was reported in the press and may be referred to
at Geneva, Mr. Clynes will be glad to have a report on the
proceedings in regard to the opium subsequent to the telegraphic
despatch to Sir Miles Lampson.
I am,
The Under Secretary of State,
