DR. LIM BOON
KENG 70
One of the most eminent Chi- nese scholars in Mayala, Dr. Lim Boon Keng, OBE. recently cele- brated his 70th birthday.
More than 20 years ago-at the beginning of the last war-Dr. Lim Boon Keng was the editor of the Malaya Tribune for a short period of six months.
"Government controls the dis- tribution of news much better now than during the last war." stated Dr. Lim Boon Keng when" asked for his recollections of how news was displayed in the local press between 1914-1918
"People appear to appreciate the position much better now than they did then and there la much less excitement. The press of the world have in fact derived a lot of experience from the last war, and press attacks on either the allies or the enemy are in the majority of instances fair criticism.”

With eyes sparkling, Dr. Lim re- called the great struggle he and his associates experienced In managing to keep the paper going during the last war.
The doctor then related the hundred and one difficulties that
he met with in running the paper, of the number of necasions that the paper was late for press, lack of skilled workmen and the short- age of that most vital of necessi-. ties in a newspaper, office-paper -being the cause.
