Your Tel. 768 and Hong Kong Tel No. 729:

We agree with Hong Kong that the provisions in

the Japanese offer for duty quotas and the fifty per

cent cut-off for preferential imports of a particular

product from a given beneficiary should provide

adequate safeguards for Japanese industry.

satisfied that the safeguards in their offer adequately

protect them and we quite agree that it would be well

worth while finding out what they have in mind.
