One of the Shanghai papers said when the visit was first announced :—
"This news should have a special significaner for China just now. for the Peking Government has recently issued its first factory regulations, and some of the Provincial Assemblies are considering the same course; the Mavicinal Contact is also working on this question, and we understand that the National Christian Council, at its Executive meeting this week, will consider creating a special de partment under the Church to deal with the industrial problem, in China. ̈ Mias Anderson's wide, experience of the In- dustrial problem would be of particular help to China at this juncture, since at this moment the three bodies referred to above are all expressing a desire for exact and speefalised information as to the possibilities of legislation. Miss Ander son, with her practical knowledge of, and deep interest in, all the experiments that have been, and are being, made by em- ployers and workers, in addition to her technical knowledge of industrial legista- son that should be called in for consulta, tion, would seem to be exactly the per
