A WEEK'S PAPERS

IN ONE

"OVERLAND CHINA MAIL" ILLUSTRATED.

CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS

AND ALL THE NEWS

SEND IT HOME!

Even without the periodical series of questions in the House of Commons. China is still an important topic in the Home papers. The so-called "Fall of Peking" was given special prominence. Interest continues. And latest news from China will be welcome to people at Home.

This week's "Overland China Mail" describes Marshal Chiang Kai-shek's arrival at Peking, not so much as a conquering hero, but as a person who has fired the imagination of Chinese who have not seen him before. The events leading up to his journey to Peking are also recorded in the "Overland," together with reports of occurrences in all parts of China in the public eye.

Following the inquiry into the foundering of the British s.s. "Kochow," the Chinese s.s. "Lee On" sank. Reports are included in the "Overland.", together with an exclusive photo of the "Kochow" salvage.

The "Overland China Mail" is the only ILLUS- TRATED.weekly summary of Hong Kong and China news.

Among the features of this week are reports of Independ- ence Day observances, the arrest of a bobbed-hair girl Com- munist of 19, the discovery of an arms and dope cache on the hillside, and the latest Naval and Military movements in Hong Kong and China.

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 he 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,
