My Lord,

I have the honour to report the following

visits for Your Lordship's information.

2.

On the 8th of Uctober, I received a

telegram from the Consul General at Canton, informing

me that General Chan Ming-shu, Chairman of the

Kwangtung Provincial Government (sometimes styled

Civil Governor of Canton), was passing through Hong

Kong on the following day, and would like to pay me

an informal visit.

3.

The General had been summoned to Nanking

to a conference, and his boat was scheduled to leave

at 10 a.m. so I invited him and his party to breakfast.

He accepted the invitation, and was accompanied by

Mr. Lam Wan-koi, Mayor of Canton; General Tang Yin-

wah, Chief of the Department of Reconstruction;

Mr. Leung Chik-wai, General Chan's Private Secretary;

and General Wong Keung, Chief of the Bureau of Bandit

Suppression. The Honourable Sir Shouson Chow and the

Honourable Dr. Kotewall, members of the Legislative

Council

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE

LORD PASSFIELD,
