between China and the Eastern Extension and Great
Northern Companies. I pointed out that the
memorandum which he handed to me only suggested that these arrangements would be violated
"in the case of China" if direct communication
between the Hong Kong station and one of the Reconstruction Council's Shanghai stations was established. In the circumstances, I said that I thought we had better leave this out of consideration, it was not apparently suggested that Hong Kong would be doing anything wicked.
With regard to the Jesselton station,
I told him that I thought I.I.C. could only get the necessary information and open negotiations
after communicating direct with the British
North Borneo Company. I have no information about this but it looks as if it were only a
low power station for direct communication with
Hong Kong, in which case the Company would
to probably be quite willing to sell it I.I.C. if
they acquired the Hong Kong station.
If you
have any further information about Jesselton
I should be glad if you would let me have it.
