COPY OF LETTER FROM THE LONDON METAL EXCHANGE TO CROWN AGENTS
Whittington Avenue,
London, E. C. 3
23rd November, 1934.
Gentlemen,
I have to acknowledge receipt of your letter of
the 20th instant (Ref. O/Misc.362/1) in reference to purchases
of Chinese Tin based on the Hong Kong Government's analysis.
Representations have been made to my Committee in the past
that such analyses have differed from those made by other
reputable assayers. Joint action of this Exchange and the
London Chamber of Commerce was taken in 1927 to bring the
matter to the notice of the Colonial Secretary's office.
I am, however, instituting enquiries on the subject
and will probably be communicating with you again.
I am, Gentlemen, etc.
(Signed) S.H. LAMBERT.
Secretary.
