Translation of Chinese text as communicated by Mr. W. T. Chang,

Ministry of Railways, to Mr. Consul-General Blunt, at Nanking,

13th October, 1934.

Instruction No.11358, Character Ts'ai.

Issued: 4. 10. 1934.

To:

Canton-Kowloon Railway Administration.

The through traffic agreement for the Chinese and

British sections of the line has again been revised.

The re-cistribution fixed in the new agreement results

in an increase of seven per cent in freight and passenger

receipts from through traffic. It is hereby ordered that

this increased revenue shall be earmarked solely for the

repayment of the indebtedness (of the Railway) to the British

and Chinese Corporation.

A special account is to be opened in the bank for the

deposit of this sum and the figure so deposited is to be re-

ported each month.

You are to comply and to report to me on this subject.

(SGD) KU MENG-YU.

Minister of Railways.
