ABSTRACT
(I) Our Book Society has been organized jointly by a group of comrades. Its capital is held in common; money once invested is not returned, nor do we pay any dividends. The Book Society specializes in selling new publications, both foreign and domestic. The price is extremely reasonable, since we aim only to cover shipping and handling expenses. The head office is located in the capital of Hunan Province; branch offices are located in every xian. This arrangement facilitates the dissemination of all sorts of worthwhile new publications throughout the whole province so that everyone can avail himself of the opportunity to read them.
