Having spent some time in China while he was in the army, Mr. Ho- gmi is well-acquainted with the con ditions of the country. During his six months stay in Shanghai, Mr. Hogan, then a lieu tenant colonel in G-5, encountered many interesting experiences, includ ing meeting the Generalissimo. An opera party given by Chiang Kai- Chek and attended by Mr. Hogan supplied unusual material for an article in the iVeir Yorker. According to the author, China is in dire need of medical and church missionaries. In the mission schools the Chinese have been taught to speak English, a language consid ered necessary by many of the edu cated Chinese. They have also been taught cleaner and better living, he says. For the i>ast year Mr. Hogan, a cousin of Mrs. Stone, has lived in Kew Orleans, where he has written a short story which will soon appear h\ Collier’s, and a novel, The Porce lain Path. With an xlimerican army captain and an educated Chinese guerilla the main characters. The Porcelain Path begins at Peishiyi, an air field outside Chunking, and ends six days later in Shanghai.

This was his first visit to Ealeigh, and he says he has had a delightful time. He has now gone to Washing ton, D. C., his home.
