A WEEK'S PAPERS IN

OVERLAND CHINA MAIL,

Each week brings increasing interest in the Chine situation. Not only as developments affect Hong Kong, but from the broadest view, events are recorded daily for the in- formation of all concerned.

Such reports are faithfully reproduced in the "Overland' China Mail," with explanations, footnotes, editorial comment The where necessary, and "articles to supplement the news. sending of a copy of this week's number will be highly appre- ciated by friends abroad as it contains what is essentially needed to assist the folks at home in following the situation.

On strictly "China topics" there are such items as the trend of the Nationalist campaign, the bank strike at Canton, the labour unions' tyranny. The last, includes a report of steps

by the Southern Government to curb the power of the workers, revealing a new policy by the Kuomintang.

Concerning non-Chinese are such subjects as the Foreign Loans to Chida, the Tientsin arrests, the plight of missionaries among the war horrors of Sianfu.

Each day's proceedings in the Sunning"" piracy trial are included, as are the reports of the "Lienating disaster."

In addition will be found all the local news, the critique of the "Pirates of Penzance" by the Philharmonic Society, im- portant Court cases.
