THE AMSTERDAM EXHIBITION.

On the occasion of a Congress of the International Chamber of Commerce the " Netherland Economic History Archives '' are organizing an international exhibition, to be held at the Municipal Museum of Amsterdam next July and August, to illustrate the economic development of Europe from mediaeval times to the present day. We have received an appeal for publicity for this interesting venture from some of the most distinguished British economists and administrators. The British section should be a worthy reply to the Dutch Art Exhibition here. May we, therefore, ask those who possess and are willing to lend portraits and other paintings or draw- ings, prints, maps, models, old pattern-books, illustrating the development of English industry, commerce, banking, and agriculture during this period, if they would kindly communicate with Miss D. Marshall, M.A., Ph.D., 20 Beaufort Gardens, London, S.W. 3, who has been appointed as their English representative by the Dutch Committee, which is organizing the exhibition.
