than

M-Fiddes and Sir C.C. Smith howe carried this matter for further I thought would be possible a few weeks

Dentively agree in the memo:

As I understand

The two governments have made down

the toxines

The Chinese govt in making its line will

nor the Chinese Corporation

as its agent

especially in financial mattus & that corporation will be trusted

the bondholders.

To secure our two main sects of M-Fiddes

proposals

are carried out

(1) we connect Hongkong by rail

with Canton

(2) to exclude foreigners except as investors

in the proposed loan

I think the negotiations had better go forward with the understanding that Sir M. Nathan may propose some modifications in detail
