Your telegram dated 19th noted. Mr. YING has
come to Hong Kong and says that the matter in
question should be dealt with quickly, but an
amount of $700 or $800 should be paid in advance.
He also wants to see the Head in order to relate
his hardship. I told him that the Head was not in
Hong Kong. I have reported the same and received
a reply to the effect that payment may probably be
made accordingly after the job is accomplished. I
have told Mr. YING to return to Shanghai immediately
have
and contact you. I have now learned from your
宋
telegram that Mr. SUNG has met you.
I am of the opinion that it was not their
intention to cause the delay in this job. It is
true that funds are required in making arrangements.
I know Messrs. YING and SUNG very well and I dare
guarantee that they are not persons to swindle money.
But as our head is staying in Chung King, which is far
away, a personal explanation is essential.
Secretary PR
CHAN concurs with the suggestion that payment should
be made before the job. However the opportunity is
matured and delay should not be made. If you make
payment in advance in Shanghai I am very willing to
assume responsibility.
Flease reply and oblige.
Yours 3342. 19th.
