The visit, has no political signi- ficance and was suggested several months ago and approved by the Secretary of State for the Colonies. Its pustponement has been due to the situation in China during re- cent months but, as no such visit has been paid since 1933, the Secretary of State is anxious that this courtesy should it possible not await the arrival of Sir Geoffry Northcote.
