Disturbances.

Paragraph 8. A statement of this kind would be

most helpful here at this time, since some public apprehension still exists as to the real extent of H.M.G.'s support for Hong Kong. To assist with publicity for the statement locally, it would also be most helpful to know when it is likely to be made and its content.

(Passed as requested)
