The monument of the Union Postale Universelle, which was erected in Berne, Switzerland, in 1909, An illustration of it la reproduced on the 80-cent Hong Kong stamp of the series commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Universal Postal Union.
STAMP NEWS
By "TETE-BECHE"
Some of my readers who have examined the recent UPU issue may have wondered what is the significance of the design on the 80-cent value. The design is supposed to represent the monument erected in one of Berne's public parks in 1909 to commemorate the Universal Postal Union, but it fails to give any impression of the real beauty of this monument and its delightful surroundings.

A London dealer complains that he has received none of the Silver Jubilee stamps from Brunei which were issued on September 20. Instead, he received a report that no person in Brunei was allowed to purchase more than 20 sets. That should prevent any 'cornering of the issue.

Indonesian Reds Becoming Active
Batavia, November 5.
Indonesian Communists, after being dormant før.
many months, are showing increasing evidence of forming a united front for political action when the new sovereign United States of In- donesia takes over power on December 30. Usually well-informed political and military obser- vers here have disclosed that the Communists are preparing to exploit the present economic and military confusion and have recently re- vived propaganda activities.
