Scope and content
On October 9, 1942, Chin Sang , attired in a brilliantly colored Chinese costume, performed a traditional ribbon dance as part of Tacoma's first War Chest program. It was China's Day at Liberty Center, 1000 Pacific Avenue. A medium-sized crowd watched and listened to a group of Chinese singers and dancers, accompanied by a Chinese orchestra. They also heard a stirring speech by Dr. Kalfred Dip Lung, commissioner of overseas affairs for China. (T.Times 10-09-1942 p.1)
