August 7, 1968.

Dear Maydon,

Thank you for your letter of July 24 about

the proposal for a new name for the Hong Kong Police.

As I am sure you will appreciate, use of the

prefix "Royal" raises many considerations which are,

in fact, still being looked into by the Governor of

Hong Kong. But we hope that it will not be long now

before a conclusion in this matter has been reached.

I will let you know as soon as a decision is

taken.

R.

Yours,

HAROLD WILSON
