Enclosure No. 9 to Despatch No. 480 of the

4th. November, 1903.

203

General Post Office,

Hongkong, 33r1. October, 1903.

Sir.

I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter dated the 20th. instant on the subject of the exchange of parcel post with the United States, which you inform me the merchants at your Port desire should be effectel lirect rather than via London.

In reply, I regret to say that this Office is un- able at present to meet the above iesire, inasmuch as the United States Postal Administration has not agreed to receive parcels from Hongkong otherwise than through London,

I may all that a request was previously made by me to the Postal Department Washington for lirect exchange of Parcel Post between the United States and Hongkong as well as for a similar exchange between Hongkong and the Philippines but with no satisfactory result.

I am etc.,

(31.) E. Cornewall Lewis,

Acting Postmaster-General.

His Britannic Majesty's Postal Agent,

Amoy.
