TRADE AND TREATY.
PARAPHRASE, Sir E. Dering. (Bangkok) March 20th, 1916.
No.62.
March 20th, 1916.
March 21st, 1916.
Referring to my telegram 60.
My American colleague now writes that he presumes ban against Schmidt will be removed because of the attitude of the Government of Hong Kong who have recently permitted 25 parcels by post and other shipments from Japan for Schmidt to pass the Colony. He hopes that Schmidt's name will be now removed from the Black List.
I have no knowledge of the alleged action at Hong Kong but hardly credit it.
The United States Minister states that he was instructed to investigate Schmidt's bona-fides and that he has formally recognized that Schmidt being a genuine merchant and agent, is entitled to American official assistance. My opinion is opposed to that of the United States Minister and the enclosure in my despatch 29 political series appears to confirm it.
