1st February, 1940.
31-139.
The Colonial Secretary, Hong Kong, presents
his compliments to the Under Secretary of State for
the Colonies and, with reference to the Secretary
of State's despatch No.501 of 29th December, 1939, is
directed to inform him that the inference expressed in
paragraph three of that despatch is correct. The
actual expenditure in 1938 on Item 8(b) should,

out in paragraph two of the despatch. 01.
