This was during a debate on the

Hong Kong with its fine har-
bor is one of the great centers of
international trade. The colony
consists of three parts.
Thera is the Island of Hong
Kong which has an area of S3
square miles and contains the
capital city of Victoria. Then there
is the neighboring peninsula of
Kowloon a little more than three
square miles in size which was
ceded to Britain in I860 after the
Anglo-French war againd China.

That certainly raises a great
big question. Hong Kong ia highly
vulnerable to attack from the
mainland because its huge popu-
lation of something like 1800000
is largely dependent on the hinter-
land for food supplies. It would be
difficult to feed a besieged Hong
Kong by sea end the operation
could only be carried out under
cover -of big scale naval and air
operations.
In short it strikes us that de-
fense of Hong Kong against an all
out Communist attack would in-
volve a major war. That likely
would mean another world war.
A decision along those lines may
be -what Britain will be up

He spladiee the colors dozens
of them with a bold brush . . .
or his bare fingers - . or an rid
stick with a chewed end.
He lete his cat Jill pad over
the fresh paint sit an it and swish
her tail over it
And while turning out his mas-
terpiece Figure I: Skegness ha
spilled a saucer of paint on It by
accident smudged it tried eras-
ing muttered oh shucks and
let it ride.
But sponsors of a local art show
thought Figure 8: Skegness" was
good enough to hang.
Critics praised it. Said the
Leicester Mail: A fine specimen
of modernism by the barrow-on-soar
artist Thomaa Warbis.
They found later that Artist
Warbis is six years old.
Tommy father Alfred a com-
mercial artist said ha found
Tommys venture in modern art
while looking for packing paper
to send his own pictures to ths
exhibit
I sent the picture as a Joke
and a test of people's knowledge
of art he moaned. And to think
I've been trying for 40 years to
get somewhere in art."
Thomas D. Pearce the organizer
wasn't blushing.
It's no worse ti an a lot of
tuff which poses as modern art
he said.
When Tommy himself turned
up at the exhibit .a caretaker
threatened to bounce him. 1
