Paraphrase of an extract from a telegram from the
Governor of Hong Kong dated 8th of August.
95
It would be possible from the point of view of
the maintenance of order for me to leave early in
September. There is however strong objection, on the
part of the Unofficials, to my leaving so long as the
position remains abnormal, I have dealt with this in
my other telegram of even date. The determining factor)
is what may be done by His Majesty's Government. The
economic difficulties are almost certain to lead to
internal troubles how soon I can't say) if no action
is taken and if there is a continuation of the boycott.
