CHINA YEAR BOOK

1935 EDITION

The 25 Chapters of the 17th issue of the CHINA YEAR BOOK, edited by H. G. W. Woodhead, C.BE., 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 issues.

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

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

Mr. E. Kann is again sponsible for the Chapter o Currency and Banking, and the Loan Tables

A new feature is a Chapter on China's Modern Industries.
