THE SAAR UP - TO - DATE Numerous as recent books on the Saar
have been, all of them necessarily end before• the developments of the last three or four weeks. Particular value, therefore, attaches to a memorandum (The Saar Plebiscite, Chatham House, 2s.) drawn up by the Information Department of the Royal Institute of International Affairs, covering in all necessary detail the period beginning with June of this year and carrying the story down to events as recent as the street fracas in Saarbruek on December 16th. The memorandum is based in the main on documents and speeches, and aims with_ consider- able success at maintaining complete objectivity.Among some useful appendices is one of particular interest setting out French holdings in the principal firms engaged in the iron and steel industry in The Saar.
