As a result of Police action on the 5th January,

two residents of the Kowloon City, named Chu Pei Tang

and Liu Ngao Fu, were arrested and were subsequently

sentenced on the 13th January by the Hong Kong Court

to three months' hard labour. Please make

representations to the British Government and urge

them to instruct the Hong Kong Government to station

no Police in the City, and to have the two said

residents released pending settlement of the dispute

presently raised over the City of Kowloon. Emphasise,

at the same time, the political significance of the

question and obtain the helpful co-operation of the

British Government in the matter.
