Distinguished conduct medals and long service medals will be formally presented to about 180 members of the Shanghai Municipal Police, Goal Staff, and SMP. Specials by Mr. Cornell S. Franklin, Chairman of the Municipal Council, at the Inspection and Presentation to be held at 11 am. on Sunday at the Race Course Ground, A reception for diplomatic, consular, military, naval and other cfücials will follow the ceremony.
There has been no formal presentation of Police medals and no general inspection during the last few years, hence the list of recipients includes persons who earned their decoration as far back as 1935. One of those to be honoured is a woman, Miss A. D. Harlamoff, who receives the Distinguished Conduct Medal, Class IL in recognition of her outstanding services as a wardress in the Ward Road Goal during the early part of the hostilities last year.
Three posthumous awards of D.G.M's are on the list, including one to the late Probationary Sergeant E. M. Slater, who was killed by robbers in a house in Peking Road on December 31, 1936.
