memorandum.
2.
It is understood that Mr. Maze proceeded to Hongkong on
the 21st October for a final discussion with the Governor.
It would probably facilitate matters if the formal alterations
which are considered to be necessary were communicated to the
Governor before Mr. Maze departs from the Colony so that they
may be embodied in the final text which Mr. Maze will take
back with him to Nanking for submission to the Chinese
Government. I am therefore to suggest for Lord Passfield's
consideration that the accompanying memorandum might be
telegraphed immediately to the Governor with instructions to
make the necessary amendments in the draft before finally
agreeing on the text with Mr. Maze.
3.
A copy of this letter together with a copy of Foreign
Office letter under reference and a spare copy of the printed
draft of September 26th, 1930, is being sent to the Board of
Trade.
I am,
Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
Douglas Mackillop
