My dear Frank
Thank you for your letter of the 8th November
in which you inform me of the proposal to use Hong Kong
as a base and trans-shipment point for medical supplies
for China, and of the conclusion of the negotiations
entered into by you with He sra. Jardine Matheson and
Company.
The question of the use of Hong Kong as a base
of supplies has been discussed with the Colonial Office
as a result of which Dr. Rajchman has been informed
that there is no objection on political grounds to the
proposal to use Hong Kong as a base for the mission.
the circumstances there does not seen to be any need for
the League to approach His Majesty's Government officially
on the matter.
In
F.. Walters, Esq.
Your
R Makin
