I was told that conditions are much worse in many other parts of the, zone, Miss Lester said: "My investigation convinced me that a large, alice of North China, about | Am 8,000 square miles in with a population or 6.000.000. Is being honeycombed with Japan- ese and Korean drug pedlars, and there is a grave danger that the social and economic fabric of the whole region is undermined. As these traffickers are not amenable to Chinese law, there appears to be little that the local Chinese officials can do unless they can obtain the co-operation of the Ja- panese authorities. The question is whether such co-operation is likely to be forthcoming.”

Mlis Lester is planning a visit to Japan in order to make known the results of her investigation.
