The Governor's Reply Government House, Hongkong,

February 6, 1941. Gentlemen. I have this morning been handed the letter from you which accompanies a cheque for $18,500 destined to purchase a mobile canteen for the people of England rendered homeless by bombing.

I have noted your wishes for the disposn

of this gift and will ensure

that they are carried out,

in anticipation of acknowledgment from England I wish to

thank you

all most sincerely for this most wel- come gift,

Its generosity can hardly fall to be particularly appreciated by the recipients, for all will realize that the Chinese Community-in-Hongkong have for long now contributed on a no less generous scale to the relief of their own compatriots in stricken China.

With your permission I should like to make an announcement in the Press In connection with this gift, for I feel that an acknowledgment

of your gesture in this form can but serve as a testimony to the spirit of the Chinese Community of Hongkong and as an example to all. I therefore Ipropose to publish your letter with this reply and a copy of the telegram with which I announce the gift to the Secretary of State for the Colonies In both British and Chinese papers.

I should like to add that I om aware of the part taken in this matter by the Honourable. Mr M. K. Lo, himself

a prominent contributor, and to express my appreciation for his initiative in making the suggestion to which you have all responded so promptly and so handsomely.

Belleve me, gentlemen,

Yours very gratefully, (Sgd) E. F. Norton.
