Thu, 13 May 1943

The International Red Cross Delegate in Hong Kong visited Stanley Camp on 13 May 1943. He reports the opening of the bathing beach with large attendances. He further reports that the composition of rations has recently improved. The authorities are giving sympathetic consideration to this problem and there is, therefore, no immediate cause for anxiety.
