MR. QUO TAI-CHI, THE Chinese Ambassador, spoke on the interactions of the war in China and Europe, at a luncheon given in his honour at the National Liberal Club yesterday, at which 250 were present.
Mr. Quo Tai-chi said: "There is no European war; there is no Asiatic war. There is a world war, and whether here, where you have hardly start- ed fighting, or in Asia, where we have already drained our blood and our resources, it is the same war waged by the same opposing forces.

"A European settlement, achieved, settles nothing
even for Europeans.
