Sir,

14th June, 1939.

I have the honour to inform you that a

gift of Chinese National $200,000, the equivalent of about $80,000 Hong Kong currency, has been

handed to this Government by the Chairman of the

Chinese National Relief Commission in aid of this

Government's refugee relief work on behalf of

Chinese in Hong Kong. I have gratefully accepted this donation which will be applied towards

defraying part of the expense of the construction

of a new camp to accommodate the Chinese soldiers

interned in this Colony, whose present quarters

will then be available for destitute women and

children.

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE

MALCOLM MACDONALD, M.P.,

&c., &c., &C.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble servant,

ad. houthut

Governor.
