COLONIAL OFFICE)

I have the honour to inform you that the annexed cablegrams have been received by the Executive Committee of the Navy League from their Hong Kong Branch, and were accompanied by a request that the contents should be communicated to the press. Since, however, the cablegrams deal with territorial and political affairs which lie outside the scope of the Navy League, the Executive Committee resolved at their meeting yesterday to place them unofficially before you, being persuaded that you would give such consideration to the matter as the facts of the case may warrant.

I may add that the Hong Kong Branch of the Navy League consists of responsible and prominent members of the Hong Kong community. Their names have already been communicated to you on a previous occasion. A memorandum and a map accompany the cablegrams which, at the request of the Navy League, I have now the honour to forward.

The Right Honourable

The Secretary of State for the Colonies.
