Sir,

I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch No.427 of the 23rd November, 1932, regarding

courses at the Marconi Company's College at Chelmsford,

and to express my thanks for the facilities which the

Company has been so good as to offer.

2.

As regards the number of officers for whom the

facilities would be asked, the Electrical Engineer does

not recall having fixed this at one per year and in the

present year it is hoped that two, Messrs. Boast and

Brailsford in addition to Mr. Kemp will be enabled

to take the course. It is not, however, suggested that

the College should take more than one Hong Kong officer

at one time and the leaves of the officers concerned

have been fixed accordingly, Mr. Kemp being about to

ti. J

-

return, Mr. Boast commencing his leave in March (my

A PF. despatch No.44 of the 23rd January, 1933) and Mr. Brailsford

in July.

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble servant,

Live

Governor, &c.
