HAVE YOU A COST: Far too much for value
CONSCIENCE?
Your photograph of aircol boys waking up from sleep and captioned "A New Day Dawns" was typical of the lives of hundreds of boys living on our streets. I havo been hoping for some pubila reaction from such a pieturo and account, but have been disappointed, and can only presume that the majority of your readers do not have a conscience on this matter, or elso conveniently swamp their consciences with their
own personal ambitions and pleasures.
If a child playa with fire or is in obvious danger, we usually, even if the child is not our own, do our best to save that child from the danger. Here we have hundreds of boyn living in this way in very obvious
And moral danger, who wit, no doubt,' in due course be a public danger by virtue of their growth into habitual delinquenay. Many will end up in the courts and in prison and will then have to be maintained at the publlo expanse.
Would not be better to main- tain them now at the publie expense and save them for life of
clllzenship? decent There must be soma effort how to save these boys. One street, shelter in Kowloon la shortly being opened, but this to at left to the boys to fad their way there if they wish. How can we spend thousanda of dollars un fine halls' pad bridges, and neglect to build lives which are rotting around UR*
If these children were found on the streets in Great Britain, they would be taken lalo custody, their cases investigat- ed, and provision made for them if necessary, A tem- porary enclosed-camp is need- ed to keep these boya unili the investigations are com- plete. Many would then be found to be runaways from home and not orphans at all. Then the parents should be prosecuted for neglect. Is nat all this a matter for the police department, which has the manpower to do this? Copies of your photograph and

article are being sent 10 friends in England and, also Member of Parliament. Perhaps we must arouse the there consciences of people before we can hope to ret action here. On a scale which is necessary.

Church bans film
}
Malta, Aug. 7. The Roman Catholic Church in Malta today anned Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's cinemascopo film "Love Me Or Leave Me" starring Doris Day and James Cogncy. The ban makes it a mortal sin for Maltese to see it.
The film, possed for exhibition In Malta by a government film sensor at the weekend, gives "a wrong conception of marriage dress and portrays nuggestive and objectionable dancing," the Commission Church Diocesan sald-AP.
received. Where is the $300 million odd coming from? The Government with its present: overhead is not likely to con- tribute much therefore it has to come from the public. the public likely to invest in a proposition where they are not kely to ket any return on their money for at least 16 years and the cost of cuising the money is going to be con- siderable by the time the apon- nor's general managers and their assoclaté financial com- panics. have given their avaistance.
the TRAFFIC, HK SIDE:
Hongkong terminus is going to be at the end of Gloucester- road, traffic on this road and Porcival-street will become intensified to the extent that both roads will be jammed. Al the present time it takes about the five minutes to cover length of Gloucester-road due to ferry passengers, pedestrian crosslags and the continuous stream of parking lorries. Fercival-street is just as bad ID the Junction with Hennessy-road. Presumably traffle would enter the bridge by Gloucester-road and leave by Percival-street.
The pedestrian traffic over the
bridge will probably
be!
negligible after the novcity has warn off. Who in going to pay to walk a mile when they can zo by one of the many ferries for the same money more or fers?
UPKEEP:
Likely to be high. Paint and painters continuous operating #ta!T including engineers, ticket office staff, weighbridge attendant etc. Government tax: кепега! managers' charges.
TYPHOONS: Presumably the
bridge would be closed when No 9 signal is hoisted so that the public would not be any beller off and damage by a drifting steamer during this period might be quite serious. ALTERNATIVE: Three extra,
vehicular ferries would cope with the altuation — one up West say at Whitty-street, one in Gloucester-road near the Yacht Club and the third at North Point, Sultable terminil on the Kowloon alde could be ferries found. These three would ease the cross-harbour problem and distribute traffle along the whole front. Total cost a flea bile compared with bridge and the great advantage of spreading the traffic.
