I have the honour to report that in accordance
with paragraph 4 of the Governor of Hong Kong's despatch
No.81 dated 27th February, 1931, I have had a preliminary
discussion with Major Munroe and Mr. Hibberdini of the
Communications Company.

2.
The draft agreement sent from Hong Kong does
not appear to have been placed before the Managing
Committee and the impression I gained was that the
pecularities of the case were not clearly grasped, to
help clear matters I have drafted a short memorandum which
might be of assistance if placed before the Officers
concerned.
3.
The Wireless traffic in Hong Kong has increased
beyond the capacity of the plant installed and immediate
action is necessary, if there is a likelihood of a delay
in concluding the agreement the Hong Kong Government would
be well advised to obtain the necessary plant to carry on
with.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
Stttung
The Under Secretary of State for the Colonies,
LONDON.
