To brother KONG FU.
I am very pleased in learning that you have
regained health after sickness. I wonder if you have
received my foregoing telegram and am worrying about it.
As Craigie's report is too long and owing to the
limited time, I have quoted only 10 or 20% of it. I shall
report the rest of it to you personally.
Craigie's visit to Shanghai is worthy of notice,
having a close bearing on whether or not Britain's policy
in the Far East will be changed, and also because of the
fact that Craigie submitted an unreasonable proposal for
frustrating the Berlin-Tokyo-Rome Alignment.
Ker is leaving here on the 8th. I will also
accompany him. Thus, I will be able to relate to you
personally the results of the talk.
I do not wish to make it known to others my
connections with you, both official and private. Personally
I think that very few people know that. Even if there is,
it is due to the indiscreetness of those several old
colleagues of mine who pass and forward the correspondence.
I thank you for your directions, and I shall be
more careful in future.
Yours, 300
