By the means of medical and surgical treatment, which had been provided for over 1,000,000 children during the past year, hundreds of thousands of children had beea eled or relieved, and had ber able to return to school.

It was pointed out that the only sound organization would seem to be otio on imperial lines.

RAYON OUTPUT'S BIG RISE

OVER 10 PER CENT. UP ON 1931

(Special Air-Mail Service)

LONDON December 19. The year. 1839 will mark a sharp recovery in the activity of the British rayon trade. Already the published figures which cover only

first ten months of the year, show that Britain's production of yarn and waste-has-topped the total figure for 1831

Up to October the aggregate is 60,400,000 lbs. against 42,910,000 bu in the corresponding period of Inst your. The increase, therefore, is at the rate of wall over 40 per cent.

The Municipal Land Bureau is preparing a detailed map of Can ton City showing the latest con- structional developmenta. „

Compulsory shrveys are being undertaken by the Bureau of Land in the suburbs of the city, and changes in land value are allowed to be reported by landowners,

An officer of the Bureau is also being sent to Hong Kong to study and administration methods in the British colony..

The South-west Political Coun- cil hava prepared plans for the construction of a railway from Changmukwan to Chinchow, some 300 miles.

The route selected will be through the Manpat and Chang- chow mountains, and there will be a few bridges.

Passengers from Canton to Chiu- chow will then be able to avail themselves by rail connection nt Shek ug on the Canton-Kowloon Railway.

Total sales of British rayon yarn have increased from 41,883,000 lbs. for: the first ten months bf 1931 to over" 57,500,000 lbs, up to the end of October this year. The October figure of just over 8,000,000 lbs. is the highest reached since April.

It would bo wrong to asume, however, that the proâts of rayon producers have expanded in propor tion to the increase in sales. Many producers who would have been forced out of business if demand had not picked up have taken the put upon the market, with the opportunity to throw new out- result that even the substantial im provement in sales has been over- topped by production, and stocks are actually increased.

A comparison of the output, and i sales figures shows that whereas in the first ten months of 1991 stocks were reduced by roughly 1,000,000 Ibs., they have been increased this year by the same amount,
