OLD SOLDIERS NEVER DIE.....

[To the Editor, the "Hongkong Daily Press"}

Dear Servientium:--Please accept my sympathy on the latest in- dignity you are to be subjected to, that of having your civilian garb privilege stopped. In my day soldier was not allowed the free- dom of the press to air his views. You are I take it a service man, and not such an old one at that or else you would have thought a. Httle longer. before committing your subject to print. The with- drawal of civilian clothes is just and proper time of war, stich, a privilege was unknown during the last war, you being a small child at the time wou'd not know this thing.

Ask any genuine old soldier how many Cabaret shows he could át- tend on his One Shilling a“ day!. I think that I am correct in saying". that one pay's One Dollar for three tickets or three dances, and that each dance" lasts" about two min- utes, J, Q.. One shiling and three- pence for six minutes? Is that your idea of prohibitive prices or does your rate of pay cover such trivial amounte I bet the rate payer would get a kick out of watching you pay Fifteen Dollars an hour to dance.

Take away the trimmings and your letter comes to one thing, ie. Once in uniform you will be unable to attend your particular Cabaret show to fritter away whatever you collect in the way of cash, “The profound truth has not yet beent- red to you, that is that you' should consider yourself a very lucky person to be stationed in such a safe place as Hongkong whilst your less fortunate brothers are actively engaged.
