difficulty in giving approval to application
for that purpose since it is less in accord
with Rhodes objects than other two suggestions:

I shall be grateful if Sloss could
541
be consulted on these proposals and if I could
be informed of his views from University point
of view as well as your own observations from
general point of view of Colony and Colony's
relations with China. I believe association
of Rhodes Trust with Hong Kong University would
be of great value in any form, but before
making any specific proposal to Trustees, I
should like to know your own and Vice-Chancellor's
preferences on above three or any other
suggestions,
