Why Tin Hat Day?
In common with every part of the British Commonwealth of nations, tho Colony of Hongkong la determined to play its part in the War Effort. Not by any means the least of its efforts is represented by the Bomber Fund. When £160,000 had been sent from this Fund to the British Government, Sir Geoffrey Northcote received a telegram from the Secretary of State for the Colonies which stated: "I am most gratified for the generous flow of contri- butions which now total over £150,000,"
At the same time, His Excellency received a telegram from the Minister for Aircraft Production: "Acknowledge with grateful thanks further sum of £15,- 000. This magnificent gift is being added to the suns airondy. received and boing devoted to Bomber Squadron. I look forward with pride to the day when this aquadron will go into service to bear witness to the generosity of the outpost of the Empire whose make it will bear.”
To date, £166,939-19-6 has been remitted. Approximately $23,000 18 still requir ed to reach the sum to commission and put info service the Hongkong Blenheim Bomber Squadron.
While it is gratifying to know that contributions flow into the Fund almost hourly, the balance required is still considerable.
Under the Presidentship of Lady MneGregor, the ladies of the Colony are co-operating with The Hongkong War Effort Committee and organising a special drive for Funds which has been named "Tin Hat Day.""
