Your telegram No.768.
Disturbances,
We agree that courses outlined in paragraph 4 of
your telegram under reference are not so severe as
deportation and are open to less criticism. But, on the assessments of CPG involvement in Peking telegram No.626` to Foreign Office and your telegram No.776, we judge it would be wiser to avoid action against their "officials"
in the NCNA, Bank of China and China Resources

all-out confrontation.
As for Hong
