huis to

Dear Sir Claud,

I told you the other day that Sir H.Delevingne

is pressing us to renew the instructions given to the

Governor in 1924 that no travelling facilities whatever

should be given to Nemazi (who has now returned to Hong

Kong) to proceed to any place (e.g. Kacas or Shanghai)

where he might carry on his illicit trade in opium.

I am not at all certain what facilities are

required by a British subject to enable him to proceed

from Hong Kong to these places. Perhaps it is that a

passport is demanded on arrival there? I should be very

much obliged if you could enlighten me on this point.

Yours sincerely,

SIR GLAUD SEVERN, K.B.E., C.M.G.
