"If revival has not yet definitely begun, the stage has been set. The Stock Exchange, the most sensitive of all barometers of national feeling, has begun to think once more in terms of future revival ..
"The world's inmate virility, in the face of the worst depression, has shown more than the first signs of determinedly reasserting itself
"The present opportunity, the most promising since depression began, is far too precious 'to be lost for want - of courageous collective action,"
The best form of "collectivo action" the Hongkong business man can take in to advertise jointly in the South China Morning Post and the He
kong Telegraph which will give him dail the bes collective results, in South China. -
