GROUNDS OF AFTEAL

And may I warn you against listening to suggestions that it is wrong to improve conditions, of living for the poorer sections of the community in Hongkong (and I purposely include all races in this category, although, the Chi- nese race has our Brst claim be- ing the predominant one). The argument is that amelloration of conditions will only have the effect of attracting more persons into the Colony and so further in-1 creasing the embarrassment from " which Hongkong suffers at the moment.

RATES AND TAXES ·· Prompt payment of rates and taxes will mean more funds avail-

able for large Oovernment pro jects almed at augmeriting social services.

Subscriptions to leading charitable organisations in Hongkong which possess lodg and valuable records of work done for those in need with the maximum af efficiency and the minimum of unproft- able expenditure provide an other method by which we can help. In this connexion, may be allowed to put in a special word for the Tung Wah group of hospitals which cares' for a large proportion of the sick poor.
