For this purpose the Asso- clation intends to publish and dis- tribute an illustrated brochure or folder and multicoloured posters showing the beauties and attrac- tions of Hong Kong and contain ing an appeal to tourists and others to pay an extended visit to the Colony.

Better facilities are necessary for the recreation and amusement or our visitors when they have arrived in the Colony. It will be the aim of the Association gradual- ly to extend such facilities and endeavour to open (with proper safeguards) many of the social institutions and means of recrea- tlan at present almost closed to the transient visitor.

The Association intends also to organise an Information Bureau where visitors may obtain both verbally and in booklet form essen- tlal up-to-date information re- garding sight-seeing, shopping and FO forth in the Colony. A site for a small kiosk near the wharves at Kowloon has been tentatively selected...

The Association hopes also with the co-operation of the Post Mas Committer General to arrange for broad-
