No. 3479/4

Mr. Cowell.

From the copy of despatch Hong Kong No.28 of

20th January, 1939, which was sent to me as a result

of my minute of the 23rd of December, 1938 in Hong

Kong 53510/38, I see that approval has been given for

a limit of $20,000 for the balance of the new Railway

Workshops Account in Hong Kong. Since the trans-

actions which will appear in this account were

previously accounted for in the Railway Unallocated

Stores (see paragraph 2 of No.33 in Hong Kong 53510/38)

which had an approved limit of $175,000, I should be

glad to know whether it is proposed that the existing

maximum limit of that account is to be reduced by

$20,000 to $155,000.
