The Deserts of Asia
More than one third of Asia is dry. From the Red Sea almost to the Pacific are a series of deserts and semideserts, the product of continentality, mountain patterns, and atmospheric circulation. Two areas of extreme aridity are present in die Rub al Khali of southern Arabia and the Takla Makan of western China, both essentially rainless and lifeless. Elsewhere, aridity fades off into subhumid lands with marginal potentials for settlement

The 1953 Census of China
As of July 30, 1953, the Chinese People's Republic conducted a census in preparation for nation wide elections. Extensive publicity described this as the most complete census ever undertaken in China, but critical evaluation is impossible. Since the totals are more than 100 million larger than any previous estimates, they must be regarded with considerable reserve. The details were announced by the Statistical Bureau on Nov. 1, 1954. Over 2,500,0…

The Fenghsien Landscape
TEWENTY miles south of Shanghai, near the edge of the growing Yangtze delta, lies the crowded county of Fenghsien. On one side is the ocean, from which the land has persistently been snatched. On the other is the exotic metropolis of Shanghai,1 singularly out of harmony with this ancient agricultural countryside. Above Fenghsien fly the planes of the air service from Shanghai to Canton. As viewed from the air, the most striking features of the fl…

The New Map of China
T RADITIONAL China may be said to consist of I8 provinces. These include the area to the south of the Great Wall which is often loosely referred to as China Proper. Even these provinces have had a changing history, for during the nineteenth century several pairs of them were united, as for instance Shensi and Kansu which were known as Shenkan, and Kwangtung and Kwangsi, known as Liangkwang. In addition to the 18 provinces there were also the oute…

A Russian View of the Economic Geography of Asia
Whenever the writer has asked anyone within the Soviet Union as to the functions of geography, the answer has invariably been “to develop the productive resources of the state.” Geography has proceeded along the lines of Marxian theory with especial emphasis on economic problems. Thus dozens of geographers are employed in the planning commissions of the U.S.S.R. and the constituent republics. Not only should these plans be in harmony with the nat…

Foundations of Chinese Life
HINESE life is so intimately linked to agriculture that the late President Goodnow of Johns Hopkins University has well said that the country has a vegetable civilization. The roots of the Chinese truly go deep into the earth, but that earth is often none too good. Two major publications have recently enlarged our factual knowledge of China's geographic foundations. Coupled with other contributions in climatology and cartography, the environmenta…
