The group selected and shown below consist of
detainees, whom China would be thought to welcome back with

Two Spies from Mainland China
China has always agreed to take this sort
of person back, in the past. These two

the bait. Held under Deportation of Aliens

Held under
(c) Two NCNA Officials

return themselves. It is desirable from
our standpoint that they leave the Colony.
Held in Stanley as convicted prisoners.
