NEGLECTED MONUMENT..
THE CHINA MAIL,

eyesore.
The monument referred to, many will doubtlessly guess, is the one which stands outside the Wanchai Market, erected in hon- our of British and American forces that fell in resisting piracy attacks on Hong Kong, and this.
means the is by no firat time that attention has been called to its dis graceful state of neglect which would not be tolerated by any city which has the smallest claim to respectability.
What the Navy Did.
Some four years ago, the writer remembers, there was some agita- tion about the condition of this monument, but the authorities took no action about it. Then one fine morning the monument was found as spick and span as plenty of water, soap and a-hard brush could make it, but the work was not done by "your obedient ser- vant" who only subscribes him- self such at the bottom of an off- cial communication. In 'actual practice "your servant" is far

To give credit where credit is due for this blessing of four years ago, the thanks of the residents of Hong Kong were, on that oc- casion, earned by the men of the Silent Service and it looks as if they will have to act again if Hong Kong is to lift its head once more and look the world in the face. This we cannot do at the present time when every visitor. can see for himself what scanty respect we hold for gallant men over 1,000 of by-gone days. Surely, if these men were worthy of a monument to commemorate their memory, then it is their due that the memorial receives the care should have.
