Ref.No.38228/19. I am in receipt of your letter of the 5th instant, from which I note that the officer administering the Government of Hong-kong has reported that he does not consider it equitable that Messrs Arnhold Brothers & Co. should take the assets of Messrs. Arnhold, Karberg & Co. without the liabilities, and that consequently the Officer administering the Government of Hongkong recommends that we should be required to make arrangements to liquidate the pre-war claims against the Hongkong Branch of the old firm as a condition precedent to the assignment to us of the trade marks.
I must admit that this communication comes to me as a considerable surprise, and I cannot but think that the Officer administering the Government of Hongkong cannot have had all the facts in mind when making his recommendation.

I am in receipt of your letter of the 5th instant, from
which I note that the officer administering the Government of Hong-
kong has reported that he does not consider it equitable that Mesars
Arnhold Brothers & Co. should take the assets of Messrs. Arnhold,

should be required to make arrangements to liquidate the pre-war

siderable surprise, and I cannot but think that the Officer administ-
