"

The 1927 Supply Bill speech of the Colonial Secretary is an excellent review: while the appeal of Sir Cecil Clementi for closer relationship with the Chinese merits the highest praise.

Then there are also the; many despatches concerning anti-British agitation in ports along the Yangtse and in other parts of North China. Footnotes are appended to cables, so that non-Chinese can understand. Also the list of British homes looted in Chungking tells a vivid story.
