A WEEK'S PAPERS IN ONE.

LOCAL NEWS, CHINESE NEWS. and all the NEWS. The Weekly paper that saves you

the trouble of writing Home.

A literally "burning" question-that of the Increased number of fires in the Colony during 1929, na compared with previous years,-was referred to at the Hong Kong Fire Insurance Company meeting held during the week. As a result, it was said, the year had been a lean one for fire insurance companies, and the current year's outturn would probably show a decrease. However, there had lately been a slight improvement shown, and there was ground for optimism as to the future. The proceedings are fully re- ported in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

A sensational seizure of poison gas and dum-dum bullets, shipped by Nanking to Yunnan for use in a campaign against Kwangsi, was made. in Haiphong. It is understood that the matter will be brought before the League of Nations by the Governor of Indo-China. The full and exclusive story of the affair appears in the current OVERLAND CHINĂ MAIL.

Startlingly frank criticisms of British commercial air services, and particularly the Imperial Airways, are con- tained in the course of an exclusive interview with the pilot of Mr. Van Lear Black's Fokker round-the-world 'plane. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL reproduces the interview in full,

1.

The sensational escape of Mr. Hui Hau-yak and a friend from the hands of pirates who captured them aboard the Deli Maru last September, and their dramatic arrival In Hong Kong, is also chronicled in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL, which, in addition, carries a full story of the trial of two men for conspiracy with the pirates in negotiations to effect the ransom of the captives, which trial was concluded at the Criminal Sessions only a few days before Mr. Hul's dramatic return.

The growth of educational facilities in the Colony, in- cluding the only complete account of the opening of the new home of the St. Stephen's College at Stanley, and also the presentation of prizes at St. Paul's College and the Central British School, also appear in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL. Sports reports contributed by experts, including the Second Extra Race Meeting, the final of the Sunday Herald Football Cup, and the University Sports, are a feature of the new issue of the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL also deals with the latest developments in the Northern situation, and the growing threat of war in this troubled arca.
