important Government and Relief Organisations. In Pingshek Mr. Roland Koh, director of the Students' Service Centre, gave a good deal of helpt
to our students and organised a special tutorial course for them
subjects of the compulsory entrance examination to Chang Shan wity, for which payment is being made from our fund. In the National Shanghai Medical College Mrs. Wong, the wife of the Dean, has voluntarily started Mandarin classes for our 33 students so as to remedy one of the main difficulties that they experience in this part of China. Interviews have been held with the Presidents or Deans of nearly all of the institutions mentioned above and all have displayed the greatest sympathy and goodwill towards the students of Hong Kong University. I might mention many other names including those of Mr. C.G. Chen, Manager of the Bank of China in Kweilin, Mr. Shih Chih Jen, Manager of the Hsiang Kwei Railway (himself an old University alumnus), the representatives of the various relief organisations and of the National Resources Commission, and of many others who have given valued and unstinting -aid. n my recent journeyings I have sensed everywhere the very genuine sprit of cordiality exhibited by the hosts of the University in Free China, and I am confident that the work which the Embassy has a possible will prove to have been well worthwhile and tuat 1 of of/students will do their utmost to maintain the good
that have been established.
