Code telegram to Mr. Lampson, (Peking),
No.140.
Foreign Office, February 18th 1927. 3.15 p.m.
(R).
Your telegram No.220 (of February 1st. Indemnity).
Boxer
All parliamentary time for next six weeks is
required for business which must be completed within the parliamentary year. Apart from this there
would be no chance of carrying bill at the present
moment in face of the difficulties created for us by
Chinese authorities both on North and South but I
an anxious to pass the bill as soon as a favourable
opportunity offers. It might help me if we knew
that a good Board of Trustees would be available and
could be appointed. You should therefore first
approach informally persons mentioned in your telegram, and report result but do not extend action to persons on your list without further instructions.
