The 25 Chapters of the 17th issne of the CHINA, YEAR BOOK, edited by H. G. W. Woodhead, C.B.E., 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 the Kuomintang covers the political tis- tory of China in 1934. The Chapter on the Chinese Govern- ment contains the Text of the Provisional Constituation, the Organic Law, and the Draft of the Permanent Constitution.

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 issues.

China's Communications - Railways, Roads, Post Office, Telegraphs, Wireless, Telephones and Aviation—are very fally, dealt with.

Father D'Elia, in the Chapter on Religions, contributes an interesting Chronological Review of Catholic Missions in Chica

Mr. E. Karn is again responsible for the Chapter on Currency and Banking, and the Loan Tables.
