Lid -J- 2) Basra on the Persian Gulf,-Contribution to a History of Her Part in the Trade with the Far East. (A short monograph, about 10,000 words already written.) 3) A Study of a Group of Mirrors of Supposed Pre-Han Date, based upon specimens in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and the Fogg Museum of Art. (12,000 or more words, completed and being considered for publication in the Harvari Journal of Asiatio Studies.) 4) Marco Polo's Zayton, Chang Chou or Ch"'ian Chou ? A Study of the Problem from the Archaeological Point of View. (Not yet completed.) 5) Red Tö-Hua, e study of certain phases of the ancient worlå- famous ceramic industry of Tö-hua, Fukien. (Completed and in the hanäs of the publication committee of the Transsotions of the Oriental Ceramic Society, London. Scheduled for publi- cation in the 1939-1940 volume of the Transactions.) 6) A Report of Sixteen Years of Archaeological Exploration end Excavation in Fukien and Along the South China Coast. (About 4,000 words, to appear on October 20ieth, in the November number of Asia Magazine.) 7) The Excavation of An Ancient Fukien Necropolis and a Study of Some of the Early Cultural Relations of the Old Yieh King- doms of the China Coast. (Entirely complete and ready for the final typing for the publishers, about 24,000 woräs. I am going to submit this manuscript to the editors of the Har- verd Journal of Asiatio Studies for possible publication.) 8) In addition to the above, I have the following articles in various stages of progress,--a) Kiangnan Ting, b)Yueh Ware in Fukien, ce) Samarra Reconsidered, d) Sung Blue ard White. Daring the coming months it is my plan to finish as far as possible all or most of the above articles and short monogrephs and prepare the final copies for publication. In addition I also expect to write a number of further short articles on Chinese bronze mirrors, unique or little-known types particularly found along the South China coastal regions, and thus far not reported or otherwise studied. Material for these articles I have already in hand, and the articles partly written, I also plan some similar short articles on a number of ceramic discoveries in these same South China areas,-- again, important discoveries thus far unreported. In addition, if time permits, I shall be working on a short monograph or a long artiele on contributions towards the history of the ceramic activity of the centuries-old and worlå-famous ceramic center of Tö-hua in Fukien, near Marco Polo's famed port of Zayton., On the reconstruction of this history I have beeh working for years. Finally, if time allows,

O067 af vity. In undertaking the tremendous task of exploring Fukien history and archaeology, I have had, among others, three main objectives;--1) To push back the history of Fukien as far as possible and determine her cultural contacts with the regions to the north, south, and west. 2) To reconstruet the history of the arts and crafts of Fukien, especially her greatest art, the art of ceramics, from the earliest times down to the present. 3) To determine the part played by Fukien ports, Fukien potters, and Fukien merchants in China's great inter- national ceramio trade, especially that with the Near East. A further objective has been to make a comprehensive collection of the folk literature and music of the Fukienese before these important expressions of folk art should have be- come extinct. A final purpose has been to build up as complete a collection as possible of archaeological, historical, and ethno- logical material bearing on the whole history and culture of Fukien and the surrounding areas from the earliest times down. Daring these years extensive progress has been made along the lines of each of these objectives and constitutes, it is believed, an important contribution to the little-knowa history and culture of Fukien and the South China Coast. But, through the years, the daily schedule of teaching and many other duties, and the exigencies of field archaeology,--oppor- tunities that had to be seized at the moment or lost forever--, have left little or no time for writing, and most of this extensive material remains unpublished. It is now my purpose to prepare a series of articles and short monogrephs on the History and Culture of Fukien and the South China Coast, based upon my seventeen years of pre- paratory work, research, travel, excavation, exploration, dis- covery and study, fourteen years of which have been spent in China, Japan, and the Philippines, in the specialized fielå itself, and three years in Americe, Europe, and the Near East. These studies will follow the lines of the field work already accomplished, and will deal particularly with the early his tory and prehistory of Fukien and the South China area, with the ;reat international trade from Fukien ports in early Arab times Teron about 850 A.D. down), with the arts and erafts of Fukien, - end with the folk literature and music. Already since January (1939) I have been working (most of my time) on these projects, and have written in whole or in part the following articles and short monographs. 1) A Stuäy of the Ceramic Trade between China and the Near East from Early Arab Times, about 850 A.D., down to 1350 A.D., and the Part Played in it by Fukien Potters, Ports and Purveyors. (About 60,000 worås, first äraft completed.)

B066, STATEMENT OF ADVANCED RESEARCH AND PLANS FOR WORK In Connection With APPLICATION FOR CARNEGIE AND GUGGENHEIM FELLOWSHIFS The China War has for the time being made it impos- sible for me to return with my family to my work in China, and this same tragedy has cut me off from my teaching position and has left me without support. It is, notwithstanding, my full intent to return to China just as soon as conditions make it possible for me to do so. My ultimate aim and life objective always has been and is to continue to work on the University campus and among the people where I have already spent all of my life--save for furlough time, since 1922, I wish to return to teach, and to continue to explore and study and reconstruct and interpret the History and Culture of Fukien,--this important and strategic center of the China and the Asia Coast--where I have already spent so many years and done so much of discovery and exploration. Through the very generous and kind auspices of the Field Museum and especially of the Depertment of Anthropology and Archaeology I have been carrying on my research and writing at this institution during the current year. I have the generous permission of the Museum authorities to continue. It is my earnest desire to be able to do so; to turn this tragic interim of uncertainty into a period of fruitful productivity; to make of it a long-awaited opportunity to preserve, by re- cording, as much as possible of these long years of fruitful field activity, and to make them more willy known to scholars and specialists in the China field, and to give them permanency through publication. Through these many years these discover- ies have been awaiting such publication. It is not necessary to say that I cannot carry out this project without support. I have made formal application to the Carnegie Corporation for support for the current year of 1939-1940, and to the Guggenheim Foundation for a Fellow- ship for next year, 1940-1941. These applications are now being considered. You are familiar with my character and my work. You are aware of the importance of long-time and com- prehensive investigations in so strategically important and so little-known an area as Fukien and the South China Coast; an area that has had such an important history and yet is still so little known today. I eearnestly solicit your help and your cooperation in seouring the support whieh will make it possible for me to continue my work now and in the future and achieve the earliest possible publication of some of these long years of field research. The November Asia, published on October 20ieth (1939), contains a resumé report of some of these years of field acti-

46613 -4- I also propose to work on a monograph on Min River boat songs of which I have during the past sixteen years, made a large and entirely unique collection of several hundred. Such, in the very briefest terms, are the projects on which I am now working (=- already since January 1939 —-) and vhich I so much desire to continue. I do not seek sym- pathy for ills which are my lot as a consequence of the China War, now complicated by a European War, I seek only to pre- serve, by recording, as much as possible of these long years of field work under unusual, and never likely to be repeated opportunities in a strategic center of the China Coast, an area which was once and for long time the starting point for a great World Trade; and still earlier the meeting place between peoples of the north and the south, to the intermingling of whose cultures it alone, perhaps, holås the keys; and later, the goal of the elipper ships in the deys of the great tea trade; an area, since, all but forgotton, and to this dey almost unin- vestigated and unknown to Western scholears. Anä, at a time when most of the worlå's means and efforts are bent on destruction, when historical studies of this nature, and field archaeology in particular, flourish in almost no eountry in the world outside of the United States, least of all in China, when destruction not only threatens, but is actually elaiming much that we do know, it is my earnest hope that it may be my good fortune to record and thus more surely preserve something of what it has been my past good for- tune to recover. The Carnegie and the Guggenheim support which I seek would make this possible and to this end I earnestly beseech your interest and your cooperation. AKokovolokiok Malcolm F. Farley, Chicego, Illinois, Saturday, October 14, 1939.
