I regret delay in replying.

Purport of my telegram No. 639

seems to have been misunderstood.

Intention was to warn you that a

request for C.D. & W. assistance was

not likely to be successful unless

it were based on a detailed case which

would show beyond reasonable doubt

that there was room for a C.D. & W. grant

of the order proposed, over and above

assistance already given, in meeting

the internal needs of Hong Kong.

3. Your paragraph 4. There is

no question of objection to a C.D. & W.

grant on ground that/students from

China might benefit from development

thereby made possible. But population

of Colony, though admittedly increased,

still appears none too large to support

a full scale University, and it

therefore seems that substantial

expansion of University could only be

FURTHER ACTION.
