MR.POYNTON:

Far Eastern Questions.

Thank you for your letter of 1st January, which I am answering in the absence of Davison who is on leave, and for the example of the inimitable Mr.Shinwell's wit.

We are in fact writing a paper on the Far East, but there is nothing in it which conflicts with the policy as outlined by the Deputy Prime Minister in the House.

E. 5.Dahmar. Murgen.

3rd Jan. 45.

S.W.1.

Terrace,

(Delmar-Morgan)

Major.

To: Mr.Poynton,

Colonial Office.
