Summary: The following pages present the text of two lectures which author delivered at the University of Hong Kong, in June 1959, under the auspices of the Department of Economics and Political Science and the Contemporary China Seminar. he visited the People's Republic of China during November and December, 1958. A major objective of the visit was to study China's population problems and policies. The Institute for Foreign Affairs in Peking kindly arranged my rather extensive tour of the country and enabled me to meet numerous economists, statisticians, medical work ers and other officials connected with the Census and Statistical Bureau and the Ministry of Health. I am grateful to all these persons for much lively discussion and a considerable amount of data. The figures presented here are factual in the sense they are official; some of the data were given to me on my request and are not available in publications. He realize, however, that the statistics are fragmentary and sometimes even contradictory. But in Chinese demography even a little light is better than nothing.
