Cypher telegram to Sir 1. Knatchbull-ugessen (Working).
Freign Office, 23rd July, 1957, 10.30 a..
No. 147.
Your telegrams No. 127 and No. 135 [of April 30th and
May 7th, clearance scheme at Kowloon].
O.. G. Hongkong proposes to proceed with eviction of remaining recalcitrent owners but without withdrawing offers of compensation. Do you see any special objection to such
action?
Your telegram No. 187 has been discussed with Colonial Office and late Governor of Hongkong. Both raised strong objections and I do not propose, to invite His lajesty's Govern- ment to decide the matter against their views.
