I submit for consideration a draft letter for the Secretary of State's signature to go to all those who have agreed to serve on the Committee. In fact, we have not yet heard from Professor Penson, Mr. Burney, Mr. Adams or the G.C. However, in order to save time if the draft is agreed, the letters can be typed in preparation.

I have included the name of Dr. Venn as I think Mr. Gent will agree that he would be a valuable addition to the Committee.

The letter to Sir G. Moss should be accompanied by a semi-official letter answering the points made in his letter at 66 about the anticipated frequency of the meetings of the Committee. I hope to discuss this point with Mr. Cox by telephone and will draft a semi-official reply to Sir G. Moss when the file returns to me.

Since dictating the above, Mr. Cox has telephoned me to say that Creech Jones would like Professor H.A. Hinton to be included in the Advisory Committee. Professor Hinton was a Professor of Political Economy and a member of the Court and Council of the Hong Kong University from 1913 to 1929. From 1929 to 1939, he was lecturing in various English and American Universities. Since 1940, he has been Director of Studies in the Ministry of Information. I shall be glad to know whether approval is given to the inclusion of Dr. Venn and Professor Hinton.
