And he said, “Well, do you know another John Stenhouse?”
And I told him I did.
Mr. Tavenner. Will you tell the committee, please, the purpose of the project on which you were sent to China?
Mr. Stenhouse. I think I have already stated that. Do you want me to repeat it, sir?
Mr. Tavenner. Yes.
Mr. Stenhouse. It was to study and report on the rehabilitation of trade in the Far East.
Mr. Tavenner. And that necessitated your travel in what part of China?
Mr. Stenhouse. The headquarters were in Shanghai.
Mr. Tavenner. Did you spend all of your time in Shanghai?
Mr. Stenhouse. No. I was in Nanking—well, while I was with that particular commission I spent all of my time in Shanghai.
