From Commissioner for Foreign Affairs,

Canton.

24th April, 1928.

Sir,

I have the honour to inform you that this

Government does not see its way to change the title

of Superintendent of the Chinese Telegraph Office

at Hong Kong. The Canton Branch Political Council on the 9th April appointed Mr. Kong Siu-lui to this

post and requested youto notify the Hongkong Govern-

ment of his appointment. Mr. Kong having received

his credentials proposes to assume his appointment

in the course of the next few days but no reply has

so far been received from you. I have therefore

to request that I may be favoured with a reply as

soon as possible.

(Sd-) Chu Chao-hsin.
