Your telegram 4th

September.

which is being

repeated to haben you

Telegram has been

addressed by Foreign Office to

Shanghai suggesting that best

course from point of view both

of Hong Kong and Chinese

Customs would be to close down

Hong Kong Station since special

reasons for its maintenance no

longer exist.

As regards suggestion

in your telegram I agree that

delaying tactics which you

propose would be appropriate

until

and matter of closing down

Hong Kong Station has been

discussed with Maze.
