I am directed by Lord Robert Cecil to transmit to you herewith a copy of a despatch received from His Majesty's High Commissioner at Washington regarding the telegraphic reports of shipments sent to im by the Governor of Hongkong and other Colonial licensing authorities.

2. It will be remembered that in my letter No.77205 of May 4th. I transmitted a request from His Majesty's Consul General at New York that he might continue to be supplied with copies of manifests of vessels sailing from Hongkong to New York. But I am to suggest that, if Mr.Secretary Long sees no objection, Sir Francis May and other colonial licensing authorities might be informed that tele- graphic reports to Lord Reading may be discontinued. 3. In view however of the terms of Lord Reading's despatch, Lord Robert Cecil 16 asking His Excellency to consult the Consular Officers concerned
