Taxes are higher than last year. Poppy planting and _opium produc- tion is as widespread as it was 12 months ago. In the cities the labor unions have forced higher wages, but { the ordinary coolies and peasants are imo_better off than before. Since last December there have been five changes in the provincial government as administered by the Nationalists.
