from home or from Canada, I can as a rule do no more than send them to Singapore or Hongkong, where alone arrangements for their further transmission can be made.

If I am to be precluded from adopting the above course through the unwillingness of the Colonial Authorities to allow the individuals concerned to land, I fear that a very unpleasant situation is likely to be created. Destitute British subjects will be compelled to remain here for an indefinite period after their arrival, until finally the French Authorities intervene and decide upon their deportation as undesirables. Deportation will, certainly, be ordered either to Singapore or to Hongkong, and the French Authorities may not unreasonably expect those British Colonies to assume responsibility for the reception of deportees of British nationality. Refusal on the part of the Colonial Governments would not improbably lead to an official protest on the part of the French,

As an impasse would thus appear to have been reached,

I have the honour to request Your Lordship's instructions as to th the attitude which I should adopt in future towards distressed British subjects who may apply to me for assistance and for whom it is impossible to find employment locally.

It may be mentioned that, so far as my experience goes, persons of the class here envisaged invariably arrive in a destitute condition from Singapore or Hongkong, and in sending them back to one or other of those ports in the past I have been merely following the principle laid down by the Government of Hongkong itself, namely, that they should be returned to their port of departure (vide enclosure No.2 in this despatch).

I have, etc.
