China

Mar. 03, 1957 - Women fight at Hong Kong Water Rationing Point : A common scene in Hong Kong at a water rationing point. Fights are frequent, and here, an elderly woman intervenes in a quarrel between two Chinese women over the supply of water. In the past water was restricted to every other day usage, and at present is limited to four hours daily. The newly completed Tai Lam Chung Reservoir, which was recently opened by Lady Patricia Lennox-Boyd, wife of the secretary of the state for the Colonies, at the invitation of the Kong Kong Government, will greatly improve the situation
