WE SEE NO OBJECTION TO H M AMBASSADOR'S FORMULATION FOR THE ANSWER TO PARA 2 (B) OF YOUR TELEGRAM NO 286, WHICH MAKES MUCH THE SAME POINT AS THAT PROPOSED IN OUR TELEGRAM NO. 335. ON THE REPRESENTATION ISSUE HOWEVER WE WOULD PREFER THAT YOU WENT NO FURTHER THAN SAYING THAT THE CHINESE HAD BEEN GIVEN NO ENCOURAGEMENT TO PURSUE THE PROPOSAL, WHICH HAS BEEN OUR PREVIOUS LINE IN PUBLIC. WE AGREE THAT ''AN OFFICIAL
REPRESENTATIVE IN HONG KONG'' IS BETTER THAN SPECOFYING A
REPRESENTATIVE OF THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
