TELEGRAM NUMBER

FOR GOVERNOR FROM CLIFT

MY VISIT TO HONG KONG

1.

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT POSSIBLE DATES.

Aw1/4

See 22

ONE POINT IS THAT

I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO OVERLAP WITH POLITICAL ADVISER BEFORE

HIS CHINA EXPEDITION. I CANNOT BE AWAY FROM LONDON IN JULY.

WOULD IT BE CONVENIENT IF I VISITED HONG KONG FROM 10 TO 23 MAY?

THIS WOULD GIVE 5 DAYS BEFORE WILSON'S DEPARTURE. I UNDERSTAND

CHIEF SECRETARY MAY BE ON LEAVE BUT WOULD OF COURSE HOPE TO SEE

HIM IN LONDON. GRATEFUL FOR YOUR VIEWS.
