TREATIES, CODES, &C.
FOREWORD
In order to bring this section of the 1932 Directory and Chronicle up to
date it has been necessary to include the text of several new treaties and other
matter dealing with the rendition of Weihaiwei,, Extraterritoriality etc..
Since it was not considered desirable, however, to make the volume more bulky, the text of earlier treaties which have now lapsed, and other matter
found in previous editions, which it was felt was not of general interest, has
been ommitted.
