Dear Mr. Moyle,
Loudon, 18th September, 1924.
When the Bishop of Vistoria reached this country last July 1 had several conversations with him on the subject of the German missions in Hongkong and we paid a visit to the Oolenial Office. The Bishop tells me that you are acting temporarily as secretary of the German
Mission Trustees. I enclose a letter which he sent me to forward with my own. I had hoped to be able to deal with the matter before going on my holiday in August. The information from the German Societies, however, did not
reach me in time to enable me to do this and the matter has
been delayed until my return to London. I now enclose a
copy of a letter which has been sent to the Secretary of
State for the Colonies.
I am writing to you officially on behalf of the Conference of Missionary Societies, which representa all the Protestant missionary societies in Great Britain and
Ireland and which is in close touch through the Internation- al Missionary Council (of which I am also secretary) with the corresponding national missionary organisations in North
America, the Continent of Europe and ether countries. The
Gemmittee of the Genference on Helations with Governmente
has, during and since the war, been dealing en behalf of the missionary societies with all matters relating to the
work of German missions.
I am sending you a copy of the letter from
Mr. J. H. Thomas in which he amounced a few months ago his decision to remove the discrimination against German missions and to place them on the same footing as missionary societies in other countries on the Continent of Europe,
