Shanghai telegram No. 339 of 25th June
to you.
I agree with Stent about the proposal for U.N.R.R.A. assistance to Hong Kong. I think it would be unfortunate to propose Hong Kong as a recipient at this stage and to do so would weaken our opposition to any proposals for further relief to the Philippines.
