Secret No. 246
According to information received in London it
is possible that the Japanese Consul-General in Hong
Kong is being instructed to approach you in a friendly
way in connexion with an alleged anti-Japanese
organisation in Hong Kong, offering in exchange for
some measure of control of such activities to discuss
the removal of such causes for complaint as you may
yourself bring forward. We should be grateful for early
information of any such approach. Apart from the
possibility that it might conceivably afford a basis for
the discussion of outstanding Anglo-Japanese difficulties
affecting Hong-Kong, in view of the determination of His
Majesty's Government to seek all possible means of improving
Anglo-Japanese relations you should immediately report
to me and should, yourself
any such proposals, give no publicity to them, until I
have had an opportunity of examining them in conjunction
with Foreign orrice.
