My Lord,

I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt

5 of Your Lordship's confidential despatches of 9th January

and 2nd July, 1930, on the subject of the smuggling of

Chinese into Great Britain.

The man Wong Sau Nga has now moved to 31 Des

Voeux Road Central, Hong Kong, and on 11th August a search

warrant was executed on these premises under the Forgery

Ordinance. I forward a copy of a report from the Assistant

Director of Criminal Intelligence from which it will be seen

that the business now conducted by Wong Sau Nga appears to be

of a legitimate nature; and no reason has been shewn for

action by way of deportation from the Colony as in the case

Wong Wo in 1928, (reported in Sir C. Clementi's despatch

No.249 of 14th May, 1929).

I regret the delay which has occurred in taking

action in this matter.

I have the honour to be,

HEI

LORD PASSFIELD,
