Japs As "Superiors" I WAS GIVEN news today of
British and American residents in Hongkong and other cities and towns now occupied by the Japanese.
Bishop Hall, of Hongkong, who is now in England, has cabled to friends, and has had the reply that the Japanese are treating Europeans reasonably well.

That is rather what one would expect," Bishop Hall told me. "The Japanese are very anxious to prove that they are superior to us, and as long as things are going well for them I do not think we need worry about their treatment of our nationals.
"There may be a certain amount of humiliation, and it is possible that Europeans may be more or less confined to certain houses."
Bishop Hall got his information from English and American resi- dents of Hong Kong and other cities, though he prefers not to meh- tion their names, nor the places where they live.
