LETTERS
Society For Protection Öf Children
The Editor,
Hongkong Telegraph.
Sir, May 1 through the medium of your esteemed paper appeal to its many readers to give aid to a cause, which I am sure, is worthy of their consideration,
I refer to the Society for the Pro- tection of Children. As many at your readers will recollect, Sir Atholl MacGregor,
the Chief Justice of Hongkong, made a very stirring speech over the radio sometime ago asking the public to donate gener- ously to this Society which I under- stand is sorely in need of funds to the extent of approximately $28,000, to enable it to carry on for the cur- rent year.
I venture
therefore to suggest through these columns, a method whereby this sum, or part of it, could possibly be raised towards helping a most deserving cause,
There are in Hongkong approxim ately 15,000 subscribers to the Hong- kong Telephone Company and, on ench deposit made by these sub- certain amount of interest
20
scribers by the Company annually.
In
19
If these subscribers or a large portion of them would only waive their inter- which could not be possibly more than 2 or 3 per cent. and donate same to the Society, I do not see why A substantial sum should not be raised.
Although I am fully aware that in Hongkong there are other Societles worthy of consideration yet, never- theless, I earnestly hope that your many readers will give my suggestion their due support.
