GOVERNMENT HOUSE,
HONG KONG,
23rd November, 1939.
Dear Mr. MacDonald,
Sloss and I appreciate very
highly your kind letter of November 9th
regarding the Hong Kong University Committee's
recommendations and the inevitable setback to
them which the war has brought about and we
are most grateful for your support of those
recommendations vis a vis the Foreign Office
and the Treasury.
You may rely on it that we will do
what we can to keep the project of the
University's development not merely alive
but in action; but I am a little doubtful
whether we shall see any material assistance
from local sources while Hong Kong has not
one but two wars on its mind.
Yours sincerely,
J. hot-horthcom
The Right Honourable
Malcolm MacDonald, M.P.
