No. 355.

(R).

Addressed to Mr. Newton at Nanking No. 110.

Your telegram No. 73.

I fear suggestion in first paragraph would

equally not be held to tally with Foreign Office

instructions.

Perhaps we can turn the corner by modifying

After words "in connexion"

note B, as follows:

K

cut

out from the use of" to "purposes" include and

substitute "their programme of railway rehabilitation

etc."

Also add before words "settlement of" the

one word "early".

Of course if Doctor Wang himself proposes to

bring in some refrence to indemnity funds I do not

see that we either can or should object.

I am asking Foreign Office as regards dato of

laying papers.

Repeated to Foreign Office No. 355.
