The terms

The result of this interview was that on May 15th Lung informed me by letter that the Government had withdrawn their official management of the quarries at Yingtak, which were being restored to the original owners and contractors. He explained that the Government attitude

had been forced upon it by disputes among the owners of the quarries, but that the Government had lost heavily by taking them over, and was glad to get them off its hands again. He concluded by saying that no further obstacles would be thrown in the way of shipments provided the necessary permits to export were taken out. of Lung'a letter were entirely satisfactory and seased to dispose effectually of limestone difficulties, but before reporting to you that a settlement had been reached, I wished to learn that shipments had actually been resumed.

contractors and the venality of the Commissioner of Industry, Lo P'u, who saw in the rival claims of the various competitors ample opportunities for feathering his nest
