Title: Chinese refugees in Hong Kong.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: Since the end of the Second World War, refugee immigrants have swarmed into Hong Kong. Of a total population of 3,000,000, there are some one million Chinese refugees. As a result, for nearly fifteen years Hong Kong has faced the twin evils of grossly overcrowded tenements and squatter communities. The government is spending nearly one third of its annual budget on measures to help the refugees and voluntary organizations have brought valuable help to the most destitute in the form of material assistance. On 26 November 1957, the General Assembly of the U.N. recognized the problem of the Chinese refugees in Hong Kong as being of "international concern" and requested the High Commissioner to lend his good offices in channeling voluntary international contributions.
