Your telegram No. 375.
Vice Minister for Foreign Affairs raised this matter with me again today and, on my informing him that I had not
yet received a definite answer from you, stated that it would
not be possible to keep the Naval authorities in check much longer seeing that large quantities of arms and munitions
were now passing to the Chinese forces over Canton-Kowloon
Railway.
Addressed to Foreign Office telegram No. 520;
repeated to Hongkong.
