A decision to give $1,000 to the British Wor Organisation Fund to be spent in providing comfort for the

Annual was made at the feeling of the St. Patrick's Society of Hongkong held at the Hongkong Hotel last evening.

Mr. C. G. Perdue presided at the meeting, which was followed by a cockinl! party.

It was also decided that no mem-! bern of the Navy, Army Royal Air Force, or Indy members should be required to pay entrance fees.

"It is unfair to ask members of the fighting services to pay entranes fccs now that their stay in the Colony is able to be so shori," said Mr. Perdue.

Pointing out that the Society way in quite a dourishing financial state,

Mr. Perdue said the expenditure in purchasing a set of Irish bagpipes Involved only an increase in goods. It was especially fitting that, as the Society was fortunate in having Mr. Begdon os its piper, It should have its own pipes for use on various occasions.

The proposal to give $1,000 to the British War Organisation Fund was made by Mr. G. P. Murphy.

The ss. Makombo, formerly Aus- tralla owned, is the freighter in ques- tion.

She ran agresind off Sandwich Island, in the Now Hebrides group, two and a half years ago. Sho has now been successfully salvaged by the Okada Company of Osaka and arrived at Osaka early yesterday morning after sailing 2,600 miles under her own power.

Although the ship is quito rusty and its lower part covered with scu growth,, it is not heavily damaged. After being repaired in Osaka, she is expected to be placed on the southern Pacifle run.

In Violent Monsoon

Mr. K. Iwami, who directed the salvage work, said that they left Sandwich Island on October 10 and alled at a speed of Ave knots per Mr.hour. Although they met n violent monsoon on the way home, they fortunately got through it.

Seconding the proposal, Purdue said that he had spoken to Sir Atholl MacGregor regarding how

money remitted to the Fund would be spent, and he had been informed that money sent would be spent in any way the donors wished.

TOKYO, Nov, 14 (Domel)- Following announcement of the decl- sions on Monday, British and French authorities have already started partial withdrawal of their garrison troops in Tientsin, a Pelping dispatch indicates.

The British and French troops in Felping still remain intact,

A London dispatch to the "Nichi Nichi Shimbun" states that the British garrison in North China will be reduced to about one company of 100 or 160 men. It was believed likely that part of the British forces in Shanghal would also be eventually withdrawn.
