TO PRIORITY GOVERNOR HONG KONG TELNO 183 OF 3/3

YOUR TELEGRAM NO. 115: EQUIPMENT FOR TECHNICAL INSTITUTES.

IT WAS ONLY WITH THE GREATEST DIFFICULTY THAT AGREEMENT WAS

REACHED ON PROPOSALS IN PARAGRAPII 2 OF FCO TELEGRAM NO.147, AND

THEN SPECIFICALLY FOR EQUIPMENT TO GO INTO TECHNICAL INSTITUTES, WE DO NOT THINK THEREFORE THAT IT WOULD BE WISE TO VARY THEM NOW.
