GROWING CONFIDENCE IN HK

Mr George Marden's Bid To

Correct Misapprehensions

San Francisco, Oct. 17. Mr George E. Marden, said today the

attitude of free world investors to wards Hongkong, "has very definitely improved over the last year or.so," Mr Marden said this at the International Industrial Development Conference

here. More than 500 business and Investment leaders from 52 countries are attending the week-long confer- ence aimed at increasing the flow of capital throughout the free workl.

It is sponsored by Time-Life Inter- national and the Standard Research institute.

Mr Marden said he and the other Hong- kong delegate, Mr P. Y. Tang, (Governing Director of the South Sea Textile Manufacturing Co. Ltd), "are seeking to correct some misapprehen- alona about Hongkong."

The major eno is that we are about to be overrun by the Communists. This is a ludicrous misconception." Mr Marden said that in the years imme-

diately following the Korean

war

some foreign investors had the feeling that Hongkong was "irretrievably lost to the free world."

"Now I find this feeling has worn very thin. It is held by only a very few people. The attitude of foreign in- vestors toward Hongkong has very definitely improved over the last yeur or so."--United Press.
