Bulletin HASKINS & SELLS 87 Proposed Office In Shanghai Under date of October 30 ,1919, the firm announced the proposed opening of an office in Shanghai, China, and the appointment of Mr. H . S. De Vault as Manager. The plans contemplate that Mr. De Vault will sail from Seattle, December 3, 1919, with the expectation of arriving in Shanghai about January 15 following. The announcement of the address of the Shanghai office will be made as soon as definitely determined. Shanghai is a city with a population of about six hundred and fifty thousand. It was opened to foreign trade in 1842 and has become the principal port and financial center of China. It lies at the mouth of the Yangste River, which leads back into a country of almost unlimited resources. China is now regarded as a fertile field for American capital and industry. The Chinese, it is said, prefer to do business with Americans and American institutions. China undoubtedly looks to America for assistance economically and financially. Shanghai, as the leading commercial city, gives promise as a place to which American enterprise will go. American enterprise should have the services of American accountants. Reading Course We shall be glad to assist the members of the staff who desire to avail themselves of the opportunity to make up a general purchase order for books required in connection with the reading course recently issued. By so doing a better price may be obtained than if the orders are placed individually. Orders may be sent to the Executive Offices marked for the attention of the Department for Professional Training. Although somewhat tardy, it is with none the less pleasure, that we make mention of the election of Mr. W. P. Bickett as President of the Illinois Society of Certified Accountants. The society is one of the oldest and most representative of the state societies. Mr. G. W. Rossetter, C. P. A., formerly connected with our Chicago office, has become associated with Mr. E . A . Kracke in the management thereof, effective November 1, 1919. Mr. Elijah Bates has been appointed manager of the Cleveland office, effective November 1. Announcement is made of the appointment of Mr. S. George Hay as assistant manager of the New York office.
