  desc: Ö/30 THE NATIONAL GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CHINA 9, Ping Ma Ssu, West City, Peiping, China 25 June, 1930. Dre. J. GÅ. Andersson, Ostasiatiska Samlingarna, Sveavagen, Stockholm, My dear Dr. andersson!:- Mr, Chow has showed me a letter from Mr, Lagrelius dated 6th May 1930 informing us about the shipment of 600 copies of Zzdansky's paper ( & Palaeontologia Sinica Ser. C. Vol. VI, Fasc. 2). At the same time a bill has been received from the Chartered Bank collecting from us Gold $813. Dr. Wong, who left for Nanking immediately after the receipt of this bill and letler, has left word asking me to write to you in some de- tail with regard to the whole question of the publication of pa- pers written in Sweden. First of 2ll we are not in the position to pay for the Gold $813 demanded, because the special fund for the printing of Palaeontologia Sinice is now entirely exhausted. we can of course pay for it out of the money received from the china Foundation, but every dollar received from the Foundation has to be accounted for strictly according to our detailed budget submitted to B& approved by the Foundation in the beginning of July each year, and the payment of this sum was not in the items in the budget. I want to point out that we are not res- ponsible for this unfortunate state of things. Dr. Wong has, I think, always insisted upon knowing our liabilities before hand ever since the Palaeontologia Sinica Fund in Sweden was exhausted, but no notice seems to have been taken. As long ago as Oct. 20, 1928, Dr. Wong wrote to Mr. Lagrelius protesting that the printing of Ser. C. Vol, V, Fasc, 5 was done without his consent, He paid for it because it was a fait accompli, but pointed out clearly that his consent must be obteined before any monograph should be printed in the future. TI can find no answer to his letter from Mr. Lagrelius, but I presume it must have reached him since the letter was registered. Yet Ser. C. Vol. VI was printed without giving us the slightest hint.

Every one of us hates the responsibility of proof-reading. My propose is therefore a sacrifice on our paWt rather than a claim, Please ask your colleagues also to consider it in this light.

  desc: Ola THE NATIONAL GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CHINA 9, Ping Ma Ssu, West City, Peiping, China 2 25 June, 1930, Besides, we have no means of yielding to this unexpected demand for money even if we && willing, since we have no authority to pay for it out of the only available fund at our disposal. Now I want to discuss with you the entire question and put before you such practical proposal as will insure the continuation of the cooperation of our Swedish colleagues in working out the remaining material. 1. The monographs to be printed must be decided upon before hand by joint consultation between the contributors and the editors. Preferably a list should be agreed upon each year before July when our budget is made ups. 2. In order to enable our Swedish colleagues to make up such a list for the coming year, I propose that for the print- ing of monogrephs written in Sweden in the years 1930-1931 ( July-Jui), the cost should be limited to $5,000 silver. This is equallent to 1074 of our total reliable income, and 5047 of our printing budget. 3. No printing should be done in Sweden until the ex- change between gold and silver is again normal. At the present rate of exchange Zdansky's paper which fas only 87 pages and 5 plates, costs us more than $3,000Å If we continue to print in Sweden, $5,000 silver will only enable us to print each year some 130 pages and 8 plates. This is obviously unsatisfactory from every point of view. But if you agree to print in Peking, with 35,000 silver we can print 400 pages and 24 plates., The difference is so great that even if we have plenty of funds in hand, we should also consider the matter. As it is I think that we have no other possible alternative, and the only serious sacrifice on the part of our Swedish friends is the proof-reading, But it is surely better to make this sacrifice in order to enable us to print 400 pages and 24 plates instead of 130 pages and 8 plates per year, My dear Dr. Andersson, this is our clean-out proposal, which I hop…
