get the extra units out by September and I deeply regret the inconvenience to which your people have been put over this. However, the Governor's imediate difficulties are with the "double 10th" and we have sent him a telegram telling him about the move of the 1 Loyals for the battalion exercise in Hong Kong between the 15th September and 25th October. He has welcomed this news and we hope that the arrangement will tide him over his most difficult period. If Ministers can settle the money dispute fairly soon, I hope it should still be possible for your people to help us by trying to get one of the artillery regiments out to Hong Kong by the end of October.
