MAIL. destined

for Kowloon

Mwill shortly be sent to a

gorage.

The present Kowloon Post Offles between the European YMCA and the Kowloon Fire Station, had been hopelessly inadequate for its purpose for many years and more spacious temporary premises have been acquired by the Government to replace It.

As sox as necessary allera- tions are earried out, the garage in Salisbury Road, occupied until last week by Messrs Alex Rosa and Co (China) Ltd will be converted into a post office, and all business will be trans- acted at this building.

Under the Government de velopment acheme a new build- ing will be erected on the pre- rent site of the Kowloon Fast Office, to house the Fire Brigade, Post Office and Mainland Admin- istrative Offices.

The building will be saven storeys high and will rank as one of the finest on the mainland.

Government, however, is not yet ready to carry out this scheme and it may be two or thice years before the building is even commenced.

The growth of Kowloon during the past few years has made it imperative that more extensivo space be provided fr the postal service, and the purchase of the Alax ces garage premises has been the outcome,
