HC Deb 05 April 1900 vol 81 c1262
MR. FAITHFULL BEGG (Glasgow, St. Rollox)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he could see his way to arrange, in connection with the issue of Blue-books such as that recently prepared on China, to include in the book maps illustrative of the geography of the less known districts referred to, in order to make the references more easily understood.

MR. BRODRICK

I am afraid the expense of adopting this suggestion would be prohibitive. The newly-published maps of China, such as those issued last year by Stanfords and this year by Bret-schneider, will, I think, be found to give all the information desired.
