HIGHWAYS IN CHINA
Under a heading “Chinese Zeal for Bonds,” the “New York Times” has published a dispatch from Peking, which states:— “The greatest mass labour movement of a people since the building of the pyramids, is the way a foreign observer characterises the road-building of Kweichow province, in Southern China. To-day there arc continuously at work on the main surveyed highways a daily total of at. least 15,000 men, women and children. School girls, school boys, merchants, scholars — every one is taking a hand.”
