The 25 Chapters of the 17th issue of the CHINA YEAR "BOOK, edited by H.G. W. Woodhead, C.RE, have as usual been revised or rewritten with the assistance of many experts, Chinese and foreign, and every effort has been made to bring information and statistics up to date.

The Chapter on International Issues gives the text of the Agreement and Exchange of Notes of the sale of the Chinese- Eastern Railway, besides the latest documents relating to Sino- Japanese fazer.
