Dear Sirs,

13th September, 1932.
Sung Man Cho
We have received a letter from our professional
clients in Hong Kong to the effect that after discussion
with the Police and the Crown Solicitor of Hong Kong
agreement was reached that the only safe place for the
gentleman was England and the only safe route was via
Australia, South Africa.
Arrangements were made for Mr. Sung Man Cho to
leave Hong Kong on the 23rd August subject to the consent
of the Colonial Office. After all the arrangements had
been made, our client was notified that Mr. Sung Man Cho
would not be allowed in England. This appears to us to
be directly contrary to Clause 3 of the undertaking given
by Sir Stafford Cripps in settlement of this matter.
We also understand that the Governor of Hong
Kong has cabled to England explaining the position and
saying that he has granted two months extension for the
purpose of this point being elucidated.
The matter is urgent and we shall be glad to
hear from you as early as possible.
We view this matter very seriously, as we feel
sure that you your selves will also.
Yours faithfully,
LIGHT & FULTON
Messrs. Burchell,
5. The Sanctuary,
Westminster, S.W.1.
