much less objectionable no doubt they would appreciate the above

argument. The British community do not wont the Germans back in

Hongkong ready to start business again as soon as the war closes, with their business houses and workpeople all ready to hand, to make a fresh start. It is neither sound business nor mere justice to the Britishers in this Colony and this Chamber therefore respectfully

away asks that the Germans be sent and repatriated after the War so as to make it difficult for them to resume business again in Hongkong

and China.

The Committee of this Chamber is aware that for

pobitical reasons the rules guiding the liquidation of German

firms in Great Britain and her Colonies should as far as possible

be similar but conditions of life are very different here, and

allowances should be made for these.

In conclusion the Committee of this Chamber

trusts that they views enunciated above will meet with such

sympathetic treatment at the hands of His Excellency the Governor

that he will either give instructions for their being carried out

or that a copy of this letter be sent to the Secretary of State for

the Colonies with such coments as he can use to support them.

I have etc.,

(sd.) A. R. Lowe,

Aating Secretary.
