17th November, 1948.

Dear Dawson,

The Bishop of Hong Kong wrote to Lady Cripps on

October 19th about financial aid to Hong Kong University,

and the Chancellor asked for a report on the position.

Our people of course consulted the Hong Kong department

of the Colonial Office on it and on the lines on which

a reply might be returned to the Bishop. Lady Cripps

has now written to him along the lines of our draft, a

copy of which is enclosed, as is also a copy of the

Bishop's letter. As you will see, the Bishop may ask

for an interview with your Secretary of State.

Yours sincerely,

C.

W. Fogarty
