situation in China.
8. The return of Parliament next week will
give me an opportunity to make a statement on
the situation in Hong Kong and to report H.M.G's
support for the Hong Kong Government's measures to
maintain law and order and of our determination
to stay in Hong Kong.
9. We naturally hope that a show of firmness in
maintaining law and order will not lead to an
all-out confrontation with the C.P.G. We ought,
however, to be prepared for this possibility and
I am sure that you have already planned how you
would meet it, and I expect Galsworthy can tell me
about your contingency planning on his return.
10. Your telegram No. 698 has just been
received. Please do not at present say anything
publicly about your intention to go on leave as
this may cause loss of confidence just when the
situation seems to be improving para 4 of your telegon
refers.
