Sent under the auspices of the American YMCA, toft thk country Aug. 30, 1959 and returned Aug. 29, 1900. Introduced by the program chairman, Lion William Winter, the speaker outlined in detail some of the history of "the" area. He also noted that on Oct.

Workers helped run their own factories "But then something happened. Landlord were marched to the fields and shot in the backs of their heads. Peasants found they had to join collectives. Students were sent to the fields and put to work." As a result, said Mr. Hew, tremendous migration of Chinese from the mainland began.

Finally they fund only place they could go was to Hong Kong. Thus the migration began. In 10 years the population of Hong Kong jum)cd from 600,000 to three million and in another 10 years, is expected to bo five million. In the opinion of Mr. Reid for many.

Hong Kong "Is the end of the road."
