Mr. Wu, who is already a Fellow of both PSA and the Royal Photographic Society, was further honored at the Awards Banquet of the recent New York Convention when he was given an Honorary Membership for “unselfish activity on behalf of the Society in the Far East and for extra ordinary accomplishment as both professional and pictorial photographer.”

Mr. Wu will arrive at the International Airport on a American Airlines plane at 1.20pm Oct. 23rd. He will give his lecture in the evening and will leave the next day for the north. stopping over in Fresno for the PSA Town meeting, and reaching San Francisco for an engagement on the 27th. His purpose in this tour is to meet American photographic enthusiasts and to contribute his bit to our knowledge of the art; he is giving three months of his time and a substantial sum for that privilege.
