To the Editor,

Hongkong Telegraph.

Slr, Two remarkable items of news appeured in adjacent columns In one of your recent issues. One that a Japanese consular official was involved in a photography incident on the Peak, the other that a Japanese had bought a Connaught Road build- ing which overlooks the Naval Yard. One can only suppose that it's no- body's job to see that sort of thing

doesn't happen.

If it's nobody's business it's time It was made somebody's, especially in!
