Dear Information/Public Relations Officer,

We send you herewith a copy of a report upon Communist activities in the Hongong film industry. This has been prepared by our Hong Kong representative, and we think it may be useful to you.

It is not possible to provide a complete list of pro-Communist workers in the industry; but we have the names of the most important, and can give you these upon request.

3.

We can also let you have the names and titles, in Chinese characters, of the companies and films mentioned in the report, if you would like them.

Yours ever,
