BARTLETT TALKS TO HONGKONG
Far East Affairs
Discussed
Vernon Bartlett, noted journalist, who has been making a study of political affairn in the Far East, gavo an entertaining radio talk on his Impressions last night. He left early this morning on his return to London.
Mr. Barifelt sold:
May I begin by explaining why I'm talking at all? I had the plea- sure and the misfortune to lunch Postmaster with your
General-a pleasure because I happened to like him; a misfortune because 1 hate being called upon to talk at short notice and he did that very thing to me. There was no suggestion of it when lunch began and before lunch was over I was pledged, to face The microphone this evening.
I used to broadcast a good deal in England and, between ourselves, although I'd do everything possible to sound us though I were saying anything that came into my head, I'd spend at least 20 hours a week in preparing a 15 minutes talk about international affairs. There was always the possibility that, if I talked about Paraguay or the North Pole, there would be somebody listening In who had spent all his life in Paraguay or a good many years of It trying to reach the North Pole, and ho'd write in to the British Broadcasting Corporation to say that I ought to be sacked, or shot, or both.
And here I um faced with a microphone having arrived in Hong kong from Shanghai this morning and being compelled, much against my will, to sail for Singapore this evening. What can I say in such circumstances?
FLYING VISIT
My Job at home is to write about International affairs, and, alas, we're so taken up with Italy or Germany that we find it difcuit-or our states- men and editors find it difficult to realise the extent to which the fate of Europe is being decided in the For East. That means that I could escape from tome
only for two months, and two months, even if you fly all the way from London to Hongkong as I did gives you very little time to become an expert on Chinese affairs,

NO FOREIGN AIRCRAFT AT HAWAII
Washington, Mar, 10.
It is exclusively learned that the Goverment National Defence ap- plications for British and Dutch aviation interests for permission to establish air bases at Hawali have| been refused.
The major reason for refusal by the United States Was the Un- the Hawall

And it is, you know. It's only when you come out East that you realise to the full how widely standards differ. Standards of com- fort and civilisation, of wealth and poverty. But also how fundamental- ly we all want the same things peace in which to work for ourselves and our familles. Security, as evi-
