I would not be surprised to find that Sir Robert Ho Tung had embarked on these schemes with a view to extracting more money from the Col Govt. If we do not see why the Colony old pay $85,000 like the sum for a property which is valued by the Govt. valuers at about one third of that amt, particularly as nothing whatever has been done to improve the condition in which it has remained for the last six years. Should feel inclined to auth. the Tw. to go as high as $100,000, if that fails, to resume the property compulsorily, leaving price to be fixed by arbitration.

If the Cabinet decides to adopt the recommendations of the Imperial Wireless Telegraphy Committee, it will then be for consideration whether the proposed station will meet the needs of Hong Kong. Presumably it ought to do so, as the Colony being connected up with the main chain of Imperial stations between England, the Far East and Australia will be able to communicate with any places such as Colombo where subsidiary stations may be erected.

The question, however, of communication with Honolulu is another matter and would probably require a station of a different type to that suggested. I presume, therefore, that if the Colony wants a service with Honolulu it will be necessary for it to erect an auxiliary station at its own expense.

It would be better not to send the Report until it has been adopted.

Sufficient to tell the Secretary that until H.M.G. have decided whether or not to erect a high power station at Hong Kong at Imperial expense it does not seem desirable to proceed further.
