Dear Hole,

Colonial Office,

Church House,

Great Smith Street,

S.W.1.

8th November, 1947.

Thank you very much

for your letter of the 5th November and for sending me a copy of the most interesting letter from Allen in Hong Kong.

I am sure that the

Foreign Office will also be

interested to see this letter, and as you told me you had no objection to their seeing it, I have passed on a copy to Scott.

Yours sincerely,

G.V. HOLE, ESQ.
