1. Mrs Brown has now informed us that she would like
her sister-in-law, Mrs E.M.Tayler, to accompany her. She wrote to the
Chinese Embassy on 30 June to this effect, gining 25 July as their date
of travel and Hong Kong as point of transit to China. Mrs Tayler wrote
to the Embassy on 20 and 30 June requesting a visa. She has still not
received the application forms. We spoke to Hu today, who said he had
not repeat not heard of Mrs Tayler's application, but undertook to
report to his superiors. Grateful if you would ask MFA to authorise
Embassy to issue a visa for Mrs Tayler as soon as possible.
2. Mrs Brown and Mrs Tayler could if necessary postpone their journey
until 29 July; Mrs Brown has made a provisional booking for this date.
She will have to make a decision by Friday 14 July an whether to confirm

MRS GLADYS YANG
1.
kichard Jazuel has asked me to let you know that he rang Kre Yang's
sister, Kra Hilda Brown, on 14 June. Krs Brown said that she had
received three letters from her sister, the laat one registered, all
strongly urging her to go to Peking. Richara said to her that in view of
this he would not wish to try to diusuace her, and that the Ambassador's
advice, which had been conveyed to her in his letter of 2 May, had been
given in the belief that it represented Mrs Yang's real wishes,
2. Kirs Brown has applied for a visa to go at the end of
July. Curiously she said she had not mentioned Gladys Yang in connection
with her application. Richard wished her luck and asked her to lock in
at the debassy on arrival in Teking.
