Dear Radford,

Since I wrote my letter of 8th December we have received C.in C. F.E.S. 071501/December. A reply should be made to Commander-in-Chief with the least delay, as he may be faced with an operational problem in Hong Kong waters without notice. We are considering the enclosed draft. I should be grateful if you and Coates, to whom I am copying this letter, could let us have your agreement to it as soon as possible.

Yours sincerely,

C4H Cards-
