despite the Japanese occupation of Canton and Hankow, Hongkong remains the centre of China's export trado.

At present along two trunk lines, Chinese-exports are flowing-abroad, with Hongkong as the stepping-stone.

The two main routes for the Chinese export trade after the loss of Hankow and Canton have been the Haiphong-Kunming railway and the Chungking-Kwangchowan highway.

It is stated that thousands of giant American] and Soviet trucks are busily transporting native products along the south-west highway abroad. Native goods, when gathered at Kunming are transported to Haiphong and then to Hongkong for ocean liners. The products of the vast in- terior are also gathered at Chungking and then! sent by trucks to Kwangchowan via Kweiyang and Kweilin.

It takes about seven days for goods from Chungking to reuch Kwangcho- wan Bay, and from there they go to Hongkong to connect with the ozean liners,

A foreign trade commission of the Ministry of Finance is at present the foreign trade. It is doing its utmost national organimation controlling

ton, as part of the Chinese national policy in order to cover the Chinese inancial position.

Altogether 24 native products are under the commission's control, cble! among wisich are wood-o.1, pig-bristics, wool, ox, goats, skins and drugs which represent the main products of the provinces in West

China.

The exportation of wood-oil is a very important factor in foreign credit loans to China. The period of prosperity In the exportation of wood-oil has been since the begin ning of the war up to the time of the fall of Canton and Hankow. The climax was reached laat June when the total figure of exports for that month was 137,882 tons, while the figures for the month of November are reduced by about 80 per cent, namely about 28,000 tons.

The main reason for this is the culling of the Yangtze River, and the Canton-Hankow railway along which the wood-oil was transported for abroad.
