With further reference to the above, and to your
letter of 30th August 1948, Reference Number as shown above,
I shall esteem it a favour if you will please let me know by
Air Mail as soon as possible whether anything has yet been
decided about the settlement of these War Claims. I under-
stand such claims have been settled in Hong Kong, for Hong Kong
residents, and also in Shanghai in the case of Shanghai Munici-
pal Council employees, and I should appreciate the latest news
considering the matter and if there is any likelihood of their
being settled in the near future. It seems the question of a
Peace Treaty with Japan may never take place now, and in view
of present trade relations with Japan, I should be glad to know
if some arrangement has been made for settlement of these claims
