"We had better not press a military member on the governor in the face of this despatch. Send copy of the despatch & original Enclosures to the War Office." I say so in saying that the despatch before our public used despatch loose seat.

Write to the governor, recasting despatch & 23. August: say that Mr. Chamberlain will not insist on a military member at the present moment but ask him exactly who are the present members of the Sanitary Board & whether there are any vacancies for nominee.

It is not clear with the information which we have why legislation would be necessary to put a military member on the Board.

I think there is one member now.

For some time the unofficial government was almost wholly in abeyance as to the overcrowding bill of November. 98. as in the draft despatch of 23rd August.

CPE 19. Sept passed Slate Sie 4 Blake appears to me to be too optimistic about the sanitary state of Hong Kong.

The memo by the Principal Civil Medical Officer shows that the Sanitary Board has been doing good work but there is much room for improvement.

I think that as much as possible should be done to take up the question of the constitution of the Sanitary Board which was left for consideration.

Sir W Robinson having made it difficult for himself to deal with this entrancing action in bringing a plebiscite.

I am inclined to recommend the inclusion of the Principal Medical Officer in the Harrison.

The draft = 19375 will require slight amendment by referring to the despatch whathe out to W.O. with reference to 19357 and a copy of the despatch.
