HONGKONG PHOTOGRAPHERS ARE TOPS
American Statistics Show How Colony Cameramen Have Made A Clean Sweep!

by WILLIAM SMYLY
LONG dull list of results published on a red_statistical section of the journal of the Photographic Society of America is making people sit up and take notice all over the world.
In the words of Mr K. A. Watson, Vice President of the Hongkong Photographic Society "It shows that Hongkong has again made a clean sweep of all the main photographic honours in the world."
In results, worked out from (And when you consider that markings at all internationally this table shows the result of recognised photographie ex one single Hongkong club with hibitions, Hongkong photo-❘ 270 members against the graphers have gained this year: hundreds of clubr of mony

And No agrin. Otherwise why are Japon and. Talwan not repre- sorted among the leaders?
Is it that cameras and equip- ment are more readily available than in many parts of the world? This may account for the poor showing of British photographers where several hundred photo. graphie clubs have produced less than one-eighth of the Hongkong marking in this statistical ouslygis.
But it is not the whole answer. If I were, why is Germany 50 low by comparison? And why is Japan (the other lending pro- ducer of high quality photo- graphic equipment) hardly re- presented in the analysis?
