Sir Leonard Dunning gives spe- cial praise to the Birmingham City Police for their training of recruits. They have not only trained for ten county and twenty-five borough forces, but have had pupils even from so far afield as Afghanistan. Not the least testimony to the efficiency with which the police work| is carried out is tacitly implied in the comparatively small number of men considered necessary through- out England and Wales. Inclad- ing all ranks, 67,436 persons are em ployed on police duties, at a total cost of just ander 14 millions.

How Hong Kong prepared to receive a Royal visitor, H.R.H. the Duke of Gloucester is described in this week's "Overland China Mail, the only illustrated weekly budget of "local" and "China" news published in Hong Kong.

Accounts of St. George's Day observances, synchronising with H.M. the King's message to his people and other sym pathisers all over the world appear in the "Overland.”

Other items of outstanding interest include the relief of Britons and other foreigners at the up-country port of Chang- teh by the Royal Navy, the commencement of the civil ac- tion in which the Hong Kong Government sues the Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corporation, and the re-occurrence of piracy, in the neighbouring province of Kwangtung.

The pictures are of a high standard and the weekly art supplement, published every Saturday, which is maintain- ed in conjunction with the pioneer service of the Colony, and which has proved so popular, is annexed to the "Overland China Mail."
