4. I participated in one of the conferences and spoke on the experiences of foreign exporters in negotiating and contracting with the Chinese, but declined to include my speech in this volume because it was not detailed enough to bear publication. Also, after I visited China to do business there subsequent to the conference, I would have had to revise the speech extensively to keep it up to date.
