GOVT. LEAD WANTED The enthusiasm " and the materials are here and the only thing missing is Govern- ment's lead in a drive that will bring in not an incon- siderable
sum towards the Colony's war funds.
The Government of the Straits Settlements. planned to distribute tens of thousands of little pamph- lets, entitled "Salvage Hints to Householders-DON'T WASTE IT.
SAVE IT." with translations in Chinese. Arabic and Tamil. These pamphlets state:
"To win the war as quickly as possible, every individual member of the community must do every thing he can. Every day in every home, some article is thrown aside to find its way to the dust bin or bonare.
If Singapore could be made salvage conscious, why can't Hongkong? The public of this Crown Colony is as patriotic as that of Singapore, or any other part of the British 'Em- pire. It only needs the lead which Government, in duty bound, should give!
