Lee's remarks here

MR

793-12352-69 - Hong Kong 76

The oft-repeated desire to

in accordance with the Minutes (12352) to expunge from the Estimate items which he has charged upon the Special funds without special sanction (89526 March)

In Round in his minute calls attention in detail to the Excessive items, as it remains whether the proposed offer is sufficient. Further relaxation should be made.

With regard to 2.1 I think that it could not be allowed although the instructions here render the Expense of the Crews of the Vessel might very well be charged against the Fund out of which the cost of the Vessel was defrayed.
