OUT TO BEAT JAPAN

AND GERMANY

Paris, Aug. 27.

The departure of the French trade mission, con- ducted by Senator Henri Rochereau, has been ex- plained in trade circles as France's aim to beat the Japanese and the Germans on the road to Peking.

A German mission is expected to reach China at the end of September, while Japanese traders are rumoured to he negotiating another private barter agreement, the fourth, with the Chinese Peuple's Republic.

Britain, the other hand. has chosen to go This visit will, last to Peking, not before October, however, have been carefully prepared beforehand, by inviting to Britain a number of Chinese trude and industrial experts.

Britain will also have the advantage, on their competitors in the Chinese market, of knowing how much will be exportable to China in 1958 under "L'ocom" regulations.

Festival of Hungry Ghosts, by Hugh Hickling $13,50 (Macdonalds, London) "Instead of under- standing others, at last we wanted only to be understood ourselves. That is the tragedy, and not all our technical skill can palliate it."

Is this the shell into which British

colonial policy is now

creeping?

Mr Hickling poses the thought in his latest novel about a British Colony in the Far East not Hongkong-and the men who govern it, caught in an era of change; men up to their neck in water-rising higher every minute-and inwardly concern- red about how, if possible with- nut buiging. they may avoid drowning.

Obviously, though, the new world which the Asian revolu- tion is creating will soon engulf Mr Hickling's unnamed colony.

The essentiat paradox of modern colonial policy, well lustrated in this book, is "that we are endeavouring to con-

struct a new Acions society, when our own is falling to pieces. Our only real hope is that the new East will join the old West, the democraile half of the
