first three months of the present war are accurately estimated, it will be found that, despite the quiescence of the military fronts during this period; the economic effects have been profound and, in .certain realms, cataclysmic. The latter can certainly be said of the effects on trade, both foreign and internal, in, both the belli- gerent and the neutral coun- tries.
FOREIGN TRADE has suffered most among the neutrals, and
particularly among the neutrals whose commerce is sea-borne. On the one hand there is the menace of the free mines laid by the Reich which have al- ready taken their toll of the shipping of every maritime Power. On the other, the Mr. Chen Yu-chun, film developer of No. 42 Pak Tal British blockade has struck and printer. at the not inconsiderable Street, and Miss Chan Yuk-lin, of trade of the neutrals with No. 144 Tam Kung Road: Germany and the countries Mr. Lui Sze-lam, merchant, of adjacent to her. American No. 198 Queen's Road West, and strictures, and protests by Miss Chan Sau-yung of No. Holland, Italy
and Japan show how keenly this has been felt.
FURTHER CURTAILMENT of maritime trade has occur- red through the requisition- ing of commercial vessels for use as troopships, transports and armed auxillaries and the Steel restrictions placed on passen-,
ger traffic, both by belli- gerents concerned with keep- ing all available man-power within their own countries and by neutrals who, like the United States, have sought to minimise the possibility of incidents by forbidding their nationals to travel in combat zones. It is hardly necessary to go further into this, since merchants in the Far East, already beginning to feel the stress of shortage and con- sequent price speculation on and imported commodities raw materials, know it all too well.

Abe Should Throw "The New Order In East Asia" Overboard-Chiang
[Below is the fourth instalment of the full translation of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's speech at the Sixth Plenary Session of the Kuomintang CEC, on November 12).
Speaking of Abe's wished-for settlement of the "China In- cident," since he has realized that China is unconquerable and that the world is looking on with disapproval, he should be thoroughly repentant and throw the new order in East Asia" overboard. However, his way of liquidating the affair is in fact to lend support to a generally detested traitor, to set up a puppet central government, and to demand that Inner Mongolia and North China be marked of as special areas. Not satisfied with having subjected the Chunese people to all manner of insult, the Japanese now want to insult the intelligence of other nations of the world. They hope others will consent to have dealings with their slaves-puppet regimes. This is an extreme case of wishful" thinking. They take all others for fools and think they have a monopoly of wisdom in the world. It is like a hungry man who draws a cake on a plece of paper, hoping to appease his hunger therewith. Wherever they go, they will find themselves iri blind alleys.
It is common knowledge that by and beating their drums for "the a settlement of the China In-new order in East Asia."
