BECOMING BEST SELLERS
Official Publishing Hits British Official Wireless (Received January 19, 6.30 p.m.) RUGBY, January 18. Sales of the British Blue Book on German and Polish relations up to the outbreak of war have now reached the amazing total of 565,000 copies. When the sale of some 25,000 copies ordinarily places a novel in the category of a best seller, the extent of the interest created by publication of this documentary survey can easily be judged. Indeed, the Stationery Office in recent months had several notable publishing hits. The pamphlet on German c-jn-centratlon camps has had a sale of 37,000 copies, and it is anticipated that sales of the report on Russian and British relations to be published within a few weeks will at least rival the rpriier stationery Office best sellers.
