Dear Monson:

Here are the reports on the Hong Kong people.

The salary scales are

so far

missing because they have not had time to think them out in detail;

they can remember them they will report the figures to the High Commissioner's Office within the next week or so.

As regards the people themselves here is a brief line on them in case some thing of the sort is wanted by those responsible for reconstruction efforts:-

R. P. Morris

Sgts. Mann and

Hedley

Sgt. Fyffe

E. D. Robbins

Mrs. Mann

(Miss Clarke)

Dr. Greaves

Miss Collard

I don't know him either: you will be able to judge his quality from his reports He makes a good impression and though hardly an intellectual prodigy is greatly interested in his work.

She has been employed on highly confidential secretarial work in the special branch of the Police Department for a number of years; Department thought highly of her.

I know very little about him. He wishes to retire, which is natural considering the state of his health and his age and except in an emergency I would be inclined to write him off for purposes of future service.

I did not know her in Hong Kong but she looks a most competent and efficient person.

If there is any way of expediting firm arrangements about the leave and pay and expenses of these people I think it would be well worth taking.

Hay I draw special attention to Crouch and his colleagues from Shanghai? They are all trained police officers speaking one or more Chinese dialects and seem to me to be the very stuff of reconstruction staff. They are reachable through the High Commissioner in Ottawa to whom they are reporting in case you wish to have first refusal of their services.
