Dear Sir

RECEIVEL

28 JAN 1947

C. O. REGY

With reference to your letter of the 23rd August, 1946 saying that members of this Company's staff are not eligible for free passages, one of the staff who has returned to Hongkong recently is a member of the Hongkong Volunteer Defence Corps, and my Company feel that as such, his passage should be paid by the Government, even though passages for civilian members are not paid.

I shall be glad to know if the Government will pay for his passage.

Yours truly,

7.1. Mrown.
