More Americans Leaving in Haste shanghai, sept. io-()-From From widely separated parts of China hundreds of Americans to day were being evacuated to es cape the perils of the ever-spread ing Chinese-Japanese war. Officials estimated there were 7000 nonmilitary Americans still in China, and the majority of these it was believed, will leave the country in the next few weeks. Hopes for an early end to the war were fading, and the con stant urging of American consular officials in China and the advance of Secretary of State Cordell Hull were believed to have convinced most of the American citizens still here they would have to depart.

About Stamps By DORIS HAROLD Hello, Fellow Collectors: i During the past months there have been a good many miniature sheets issued by various countries. Some of these, like the TJ. S. "Ti- Px. Sheet," have consisted of sev- eral stamps while others, like' the Hitler birthday sheet, had only one. Most of these have sold at from 12 cents up to a dollar or two apiece. In foreign countries some of those printed have been quite scarce as well as expensive. On August 26, at the S. P. A. conven tlon (mentioned two weeks ago in this column a new TJ. S. sheet was put out. Its design is Identical with the 10c park of 1934 and will be a rich light green. The border Inscription states that it is dedi- cated to the S. P. A. convention; Not long ago the British gov ernment began to issue stamps for Aden. In case you have forgotten.
