Dear Private Secretary
With further reference to your letter of the 9th September about's petition from the Water Police Station, Kowloon, I have now had these papers looked up b
the Depertuant concerned, and find that no representations or later date than September and October 1946 have been received here from the Water Police Station, Kowloon, These representstions were dealt with at the time.
It would seen likely therefore that the copy of the present petition which you mention as having been sent to är. Creech Jones by the post-mar tranafem fras police forces of the United Kingdom has beca correctly moitted through the authorities in Hong Kong and is being looked into there bofore belag aent on with the door.or's comments.
Coples of this correspondence are being sent to the Governor.
Yours sincerely,
The Zrivate Secretary to D.N. Titt, $81, 8.0.,
