Mør. Sloss first gave a brief account of the
local background of the present proposals for the
development of Hong Kong University. The present
Chinese Government is more disposed to friendly
co-operation with British Universities than has ever
been the case before, and has in fact given
instructions that representatives of Hong Kong
University are to be invited to take part with Chinese
Universities in all future conferences in China on such
subjects as Public Health, etc. This is an entirely
new departure, but, in a recent conversation with
Mpr. Sloss, Chiang Kai-Shek had expressed the hope that
whereas in the past Sino-British relations had been
almost exclusively of a commercial nature, it was
necessary that they should rest on the more durable
foundation
