Paraphrase telegram from the Governor of Hong Kong
to the Secretary of State for the Colonies.
Dated 25th November.
(Received Colonial Office 6.a.m. 25th November 1924)
ShippingControl Profits. Your confidential despatch
of the 20th of October refers. What follows is secret
and Personal. The Unofficial members could I believe
be induced by me to agree to these profits being handed
over for the purpose of the Singapore base, if that
project is being preceeded with. I will sound them if you agree. There would however be no chance of their
agreeing unless the opposition of the Admiralty to our
scheme in regard to the Kowloon Ferry is withdraw. your despatch No.232 of the 28th of July.)
