Great enthusiasm has been displayed by the Hong Kong Chinese residents towards the "Offer Gold" Movement here which entered its third day yesterday, says Central News.

Today, the first anniversary of the hostilities in the Shanghai area, more Chinese are expected to loose their purse strings before the donation boxes placed in the various Chinese banks and the Wing on, Sincere and Ta Sun Companies and the China Emporium.
