0692 Swedish Government fund that oan, according to its regulations, only be used for scientific papers printed in a Swedish periodical. I sincerely hope that you will find that we have acted to our best ability under the extremely difficult oiroumstances arising from the world conflict. Professor Karlgren is now going to write to you on the more complicate matter of the publication method for our monographs. I will only add that we had tried to our best ability to raise from Swedish donors 50.000 crowns for printing here in Sweden these mono- e 80 exorbitant and graphs in the Pal.Sinica outfit. But taxi cost of living souring so high that donors are nonexisting, I am sorry to assure you that Professor Karlgren”s plan 18 the only one workable in order to take up the printing of our monographs. With kindest regards and best wishes for this new year. Yours sincerely

0691 6 ation of the Pal.Sinica, even of those numbers which deal with Palaeozoic and Mesozoic fossils and which in the eyes of the public are of more practical value than studies of archaeology. Morsover, the available funds are not so plentiful as to allow the printing of the voluminous and "luxus" monographs of the Pal,Sinica." In the course of 1941 I discussed this publication matter repeatedly with my successor, Professor Karlgren, who offered to try to place ny condensed summary in our Bulletin. The 17th of Febr. 1942 I wrote you a brief letter, copy of which is here enclosed, and at the same time I began preparation of my summary "Researches into the Prehistory of the Chinese" which was planned on a smaller scale but grew with the addition of a number of general chapters as my work progressed. At the end of April 1943 I explained to Professor Karlgren that I wished to retire to my native place and that I was anxious to my paper in print. We had then waited more than a year for the telegraphic answer which we had asked you kindly to send us and we had prevented assumed that overburden of much more important duti. you from looking into this small matter. Under these circumstances I asked Professor Karlgren as a matter of force majeure to begin printing of my summary. This volume is now ready, & copy has been mailed to you and 200 copies intended for the Geological Survey are waiting for a possibility to ship them to you. These 200 copies carry a special cover giving only the title of my paper and on the inside: This volume -väffulie has been printed with a grant from "Humanistiska Fonden", which is the

O674 Stockholm, January 4, 1944, Dr. Wong Wen-hao, Minister of Economic Affairs, Ghungking. Dear Dr. Wong, Tn 1940 I began to feel that I would by far not be able to work through monographically the whole prehistoric material from China. FPich and important eites such as Lo Han Tang, Hui Tevi and Sha Ching had to be taken up by younger hands and this would be an arrangement to be carried through after my retirement from all active work, But I had a strong conviction that I personally was in possession of a knowledge conserning this material that I hardly could transplant to anybody else except by writing out a condensed summary of the whole material, an enlarged edition of "Preliminary Report on Archaeological Research in Kansu". In the said year, 1940, I approached a publishing firm here in Stockholm, in order to find out whether such a summary could be printed free of cost. But I soon found that the state of war and increasing unrest all over the world had made the said firm absolute- ly disinolined for such an undertaking. I was then in a very tight corner, as Dr. T.K, Huang in his letter of June 24th 1939 had informed me that: "pressure of public opinion (from seientific circles) has forced us to stop the publie-
