An Invitation for a visit by the Committee. of the Chamber of Commerce was the outcome.

Dod- well, of Meaars. Dodwell and Co., Ltd.; the Hon. Sir William Shen- ton; the Hon. Mr. J. J, Paterson, head of Moogra, Jardino, Matho- Ison and Co., Ltd., in Hongkong; Mr. V. M.

Shewan, Tomes and Co., Ltd., and Mr. T. E. Pearce, Messrs. J. D. Hutchison and Co., Ltd. Mr. G. C. Pelham, H. M. Trade Com- missioner for Hongkong and Com mercial Secretary for South China, who is a co-opted member of the Chamber of Commerco Committee, will also be one of the party,

A programme of sightseeing and visits will begin at 9 a.m., on Saturday and continue until mid-, day on Sunday. The visitors will be entertained to lunch at the Muni- cipal Offices on Saturday; they will be the guests of the Provin- cial Government to dinner on Saturday evening, and H. B. M. Consul-General, Mr. Herbert Phil- lips, C.M.C., will be their host for lunch on Sunday.

Industrial Concerns

Cars for sightseeing will be pro- vided by the, Canton Government. The first enterprise visited will be the Kwangtung Cement Works, established two-and-a-half years ago and now producing a million barrels of cement annually. The Waterworks, which will before long be enlarged, and some chemi-Į cal works, will also be visited,

In the afternoon, after crossing the river by the now Pearl River Bridge the party will visit Honam and see the now cotton mill which la almost ready to begin opera- tions; the woollen mill, at which work was commenced two months ago; and the waste silk plant. In both the cotton and woollen milla, British machinery has been In- stalled.

The foregoing visite will occupy the daylight hours of Saturday. On Sunday morning the visitors will be shown the scenic and his- torical features of Canton and en- virons. The Memorial Hall and the Monument to Sun Yat-sen, China's great national hero, are always of great interest, and from the neighbourhood a fine view of Canton is obtainable.

The Memorial to the Seventy- two Heroes of the Revolution 1011 ls of special interest on ac count of the additions to it, in the form of marble blocks, presented. by Chinese communities abroad, principally from the British Dominions and the United States of America,

Sun Yat-sën University. One of the items on the pro- gramme bears the title of "A

A Visit to Kellow Grand mas'

Cavo." The meaning of this quaint title will doubtless be ax- plained to the visitors; it is in fact, the site of the Afforestation of the Sun Yat-sen

Univeralty and is situated at the

back of White Cloud Mountain. Thence the party will be taken to the Chinese Country Club, which is most pleasantly situated among the hills about ten miles further out. If time permits, a short visit will be paid on the, roturn Journey to the Sun Yat-sen Uni- versity, which occupies grounds of 1,600 acres, among the hills of Shekpal.

It will be appreciated that no effort has been spared by the hosts to make the stay of the Hongkong visitors both Informative and on- joyable.

***

In the course of this strenuous programme opportunities will no

·doubt arisa for those interchanges of view, which are such an import- ant part of meetings of this kind, It is to be hoped that the result may be still closer co-operation between Canton and Hongkong, which is so necessary if the dif-. ficulties in the way of trade in these days of world depressiou nie to be overcome.
