Sir:- I am directed by Secretary Sir E. Grey to acknowledge the receipt of your letter 18124/1908 of the 22nd ultimo in regard to the suggestions of the United States Government as to the constitution, procedure, scope, and time and place of meeting of the proposed Joint International Opium Commission at Shanghai.
I am to transmit to you, to be laid before the Secretary of State for the Colonies, a copy of a letter from the India Office, from which you will perceive that the Secretary of State for India expresses views in general harmony with those of the Earl of Crewe.
Sir E. Grey considers that the reply to the United States Government should be on the lines suggested by the India Office, and I am to enclose a draft of the communication he would propose to address to the United States Government.
