Dead line for Sunday Classified is at noon Saturday. What a contrast Hongkong provides. The Communist flag flies over the largest building in Hongkong, the Bank of China and the Nationalist flag over the mean hovels of the refugees. In one area 25,000 refugees, in an other 50,000, who would rather live in misery and poverty with freedom in Hongkong than go back to the Communist "para dise" only 30 miles away. When the welfare agencies took a poll to see how many poverty stricken refugees would return to Communism, they found only 1'10 of 1 per cent would go back. These people who know Communism best seem to like it least. Another startling contrast in Hongkong is the sight of five and six story buildings being torn down. When I asked why good buildings were thus demolished I was told that because the rents are frozen it is now actually fi nancially profitable to tear down these buildings with low rents and build new buildings in their place for the new rents and the "big money" will pay back the full cost in five years. Never have I seen so much building go ing on at one time as in Hong kong. They don't think the Com munists will ever take them over. It seems that there is little hope of a change in the political picture here for a long time. We were told it would take 30 years, or until both Mao and Chiang have gone that a new third party would emerge and the chaos out here would level off.

Here one felt that the only hope for the recapture of the mainland lays mostly in World War III. In fact that is the reason things have calmed down out here. They say quite frankly that nothing radical will happen out here unless it is World War III and in that case New York, Chicago or San Francisco will get it before they do in Hong kong. So they are confident of a very long period of peace, be cause the alternative is world chaos. This is Hongkong anyway. kins and daughter, Paula, after spending two months' vacation with the Hopkins.
