REC? REGE 7 FEB 07

FOREIGN OFFICE,

February

1907.

I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of

your Note of the 25th ultimo and to thank you for the

translation enclosed therein of certain proposals

which you have received from the Wai-wu-Pu for the

gradual abolition of the Opium Trade in China.

I am unable to express any definite opinion in

regard to these proposals until I am in possession of

the views of the Government of India in regard to

them, but the matter is engaging the serious atten-

tion of His Majesty's Government who are already in

communication with His Majesty's Minister at Peking

and with the Government of India on the subject.

(signed)

I have, Ac.,

Elvey

&C.,
