Abstract
PROBABLY the most generally useful statistical publications issued by H.M. Stationery Office are the various Statistical Abstracts, such as the Statistical Abstract for the United Kingdom, the Abstract of Labour Statistics and the Statistical Abstract for the British Empire. The sixty-fourth number of the last named has recently been published (H.M. Stationery Office, 3s. Qd.) and contains a great wealth of statistical information relating to the exports and imports of the various Dominions, Colonies and Dependencies for each of the ten years 1925-34. It is, however, less complete than previous issues, which also included information relating to finance, production, prices, etc., but it is intended to publish the Abstract in complete form in alternate years. Those who have frequent occasion to refer to statistical data will find this and the other Statistical Abstracts invaluable as a means of obtaining convenient summaries of official statistics drawn from very varied sources.
