I think The

Hong Kong Foreshore and Sea Bed Works

Ordinance.

Sir Thomas Southorn telephoned to me this

morning from the Grosvenor Hotel, where he had

been staying. He is returning to Leamington today

and will come up to town again next week to see

the S. of S. as arranged at 4 p.m. on Wednesday,

the End of August.

Sir T. Southorn received this morning my

letter of the 26th of July which had been forwarded

to him from Leamington. For the purposes of the

discussion at the Office next week he suggested that

it would be very useful to have the following

papers:-

x

Kwo in Jameson 400m maps will fo sufficient for Sut south on',

pup one. Me

(1) A copy of the Hong Kong Crown Lands

Resumption Ordinance, which contained

expropriation provisions somewhat similar

to those proposed in the Foreshore and Sea

Bed Works Ordinance:

(2)

A plan of the water front of Hong Kong, or

failing that a chart of the big harbour

development plans for the Colony drawn up

some years ago.

Would you please try to get these papers?

The Library will have copies of (1), and no doubt

the Crown Agents and /or the Admiralty can supply

copies
