If we wish China to, be powerful, we must take Japan: as our model. "
If we believe that China to-day needs salvation, then our belief in the doctrine will inspire in us that strength which will save her.
What. Nationalism Means... To-day I will begin with the Doctrine of Nationalism.
The Kuomintang has set in order its plans for saving the country, and its principal need is propaganda. Preaching our doc- trine is the best form of pro- paganda.
Thinking, men in China have been familiar with this doctrine for the past ten years, but many
