I regret delay in replying.
Purport of my telegram No. 639
seems to have been misunderstood.
Intention was to warn you that a
request for C.D. & W. assistance was
not likely to be successful unless
it were based on a detailed case which
would show beyond reasonable doubt

assistance already given, in meeting
the internal needs of Hong Kong.
3. Your paragraph 4. There is
no question of objection to a C.D. & W.
