When an industrial district in cludes in its commercial booklets pictures of hills, wooda and pasture | 7-9.30 lands, without the suspicion of a chimney, or factory roof, it obvious- ly has something unusual to say to the reader. This is the position in the Stroud area of Gloucestershire, where for four hundred years a
ed, and mills, built in the spacious days of the eighteenth and nine- teanth centuries delight the eye while pleasing the practical owner. The ports of Bristol and Gloucester nre at hand, and London is a bare hundred miles away.
The Harbin Chamber of Com-thriving cloth industry has flourish. merce, the Binchang Transporta tion Association, and the Chambers of Commerce of various dis tricts along the Sungari and Heilungkinng Rivers, realizing the need of new wharf in the Binchang district, have Icased land, and petitioned the Adminis tration for approval of the scheme. This will be the third wharf in Bi- chang.
