Thirdly,

I am informed that a Chinese ship

carrying cattle to Hong Kong from French Kuang Chov Ta

has recently been seized by Canton Government and taken

to Canton and I have requested His Majesty's Consul

Önneral to ascertain whether Canton Government accept

responsibility, I expect that the issue will be evaded

but whatever the reply I submit that instructions should

be given to His Majesty's Maral forces to sink the gue

beats concerned on the ground that this is a case of

piracy.

There is considerable fear among the Chinese

that the Belshevist Government will spread and there are

several sombinations of Chinese páliticians and generals

who are anxious to overthrow it. We cannot give them

the pecuniary assistance for which they are continually

asking us but my streng advice is that they should be

given all the support that is possible. For instance we

could hand over them any ammunitions that we have. Pro

vided that we showed clearly that we were acting not

against China but for China against Bolshevism sane

opinion in China, which is undoubtedly opposed to

Bolshevism, would welcome any intervention by His

Kajesty's Government.

If my views meet with your general acceptance

it would be well if a responsible officer were sent from

hare to Peking to confer with His Majesty's Minister und

Central Government. This would reduce to a minimum the

risk of a false step.
