De r Sir Michael

As you see from the address, I got back to hongkong

after

i

quite safely last month, a

very hot journey. I was

unable to get the vise, via Siberi, in spite of the fact

that i we assisted by a Lbour M.P., ne the Secretary of

the Anglo-Pussion Parliamentary Committce. AS T

witter

of fret, i understand I would have succeeded, if I h d

applied through Muller, the Geraen passenger agents in

Haymarnet, London. I waited till the inst moment, hoping

to get to Russia as I had a letter of introduction to a

Russi-n Professor, which Leonard Woolf got ior me. I ad

hoped to see something of the educational work. My wife and

two children are coming out in February. They are staying

for the first term, to see the other two settled in school.

Braine-Hartnell vrrived softly on the Khivs two or

three days ago. He is a nice boyish fellow with a good

sense of humour rother valuabic out here. I had him

up to dinner last night. He is living at the University,

which is on the lower levels. I prefer to live 1400 feet

up on the Peak here it is always ten degrees cooler.

Ł. S

ulte heppy, and will very

and will very quickly make friends.
