In this Office are sympathies are with the
straightforward proposal in paragraph 5 of your
telegram.
We see however, I regret to say,
no hope of a solution on those lines.
Departments
are now under instructions to consider with us
whether some offer could be made to the Hong Kong
Government in respect of the Dockyard lands in
return for an undertaking to meet the additional
costs involved in stationing one or two of the
additional artillery units in Hong Kong. This
is an advance on previous position. But I cannot
Page 211 pretend even so that prospects are bright.
