China

Civil war in China is not so serious as newspaper dispatches suggest. China is a huge country, covering almost half as much ground as the United States and having three times our population. Disturbances in one region have little effect on distant parts.

It is surprising, nevertheless, to read in the U. S. Commerce Reports that new apartment houses from 7 to 20 stories high are being built in Shanghai, that a commercial broadcasting station is under construction and another by the Nanking government, and that other new enterprises are being undertaken.

China is far from being paralyzed by its internal wars, and may come out of them stronger than before they began.
