the formal "recognition" of the societies desiring to be readmitted to Hongkong will be submitted later when the Conference has been able to prepare a complete list of the German societies which it desires to recommend for

"recognition" in different parts of the Empire.

(1) The Berlin Society has decided that it does not desire

to resume work in Hongkong. Conditions have changed since the Foundling Home in Hongkong was started and the Society

would prefer to develop work on somewhat different lines on the mainland. The suggestion is being made to the Trustees in Hongkong that the property of this Society should be sold and the proceeds handed over to the Society for work in the Kwangtung Province.

(2) The Hildesheim Mission, which has carried on work for the blind, desires to resume its werk in Hongkong as soon as permission can be obtained and the Conference of

Missionary Societies hopes that such permission may be granted. In the event of such permission being granted it is suggested that negotiations should take place between the Hildesheim Society and the Church Missionary Society, which has up to the present been taking care of the work. (3) The Brenish Mission desire to send to Hongkong one

of their missionaries, Mr. Genahr, whe is a British subject,|

and to recover the use of part of their property (i.e.Nos,

12 and 14 St. Stephen's Lane) in order to use it as a

business centre for their missions on the mainland and a

rest-house for missionaries. If for any reason the return

of Mr. Genahr is unacceptable to the Hongkong Government,

the Society would be prepared to substitute another of their

missionaries. They desire that the large house in Bonham

Road should be sold and the proceeds made available for the

support of their work in the Kwangtung Province, which is

in serious financial straits.
