Downing Street,

April,

1913.

Ir Harcourt desires me to send you, for the infomation of I'r Monty, the enclosed copy of

Acland a memorandum which has been prepared in this office, in view of the notices which have been put down by

r High, .P. and r Theodore Taylor, F.F., that

they propose to call attention to the opium traffic and move a resolution on Wednesday the 23rd April. I understand that it is very unlikely that the

debate will come on, but if it does 'r Harcourt

imagines that I'r l'ontagu or F'r Acland will deal

with it. Mr Harcourt himself will not be able to

be present in the house, as he will be in attendance on the king at Creve on that day, but he thinks that Mr Konta u may like to have a copy of this
