In order to protect their uniform- ed men from being positively identi-' fied by agents of armed kidnappers and robbers, and so that gangsters cannot obtain revenge against those who have distinguished them- elves in the performance of their duty, the police authorities have given each Chinese constable false number to wear on his collar. Thus, there may be eight, ten, or more wearing the same number. and, as it has no bearing on official records or on Provisional Court proceedings, or with the presenta- tion of decorations, the numbered identity of the constable la not common knowledge.

A WEEK'S PAPERS IN ONE

"OVERLAND CHINA MAIL"

CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS

AND ALL THE NEWS

SEND IT HOME!

Important events have occurred in China, widely affecting the position of foreigners and foreign Powers. America and the Nationalist authorities have come to an understanding over the Nanking incident of March, 1927. Chinese have been appointed to serve on the Shanghai Municipal Council and the Council Committees. The French and the Nationalists in Hankow have smoothed over local differences. And, most important of all, the long lull in the North China war has ended. The trend of hostilities is closely followed in the "Overland China Mail," backed up with explanations and comment to facilitate comprehension by non-Chinese.

.

How Hong Kong spent Easter is described in the "Over- land." The friendly invasion of Japanese Naval men is recorded in the "Overland, together with the local news, sports articles, cables, etc.

WHEN YOU GO ON LEAVE.

Hong Kong's spring exodus has begun. Are you going Home on leave this year? If you are, you will be surprised by the number of persons who will ask you about China and

Hong Kong. You will be astonished at the number and type of silly questions put to you in all good faith. And you will have to admit reluctantly (if only to yourself), that you are not quite certain. Will you be believed, though? Keep in touch with Hong Kong and China by having the "Overland China Mail" sent to you for a stipulated period.*

By spending a little time while you are on holiday, you can keep yourself well informed if you have the "Overland." -The articles which you will seek are written to help non- Chinese to understand. In any case, you will not regret, from your own point of view, being posted with the main develop ments (reported in brief) while you are away.
