How We
Can Help China
London, Feb. 2. There are many ways in which Britain and China can really help each other, said Lady Cripps, President of the British United Aid to: China Fund, in a speech at a reception of the Anglo-Chinese Chamber of Commerce..
Though neither country at capable of the moment was making great material supplice available to each other in trade, she said, it was important that the two countries should fill the gap by. other
forms of mutual help.
She suggested, for example, the dispatch of British experts who could help the Chinese in social welfare work. Another why would be to provide facili tics for young Chinese adminis trators to come to Britain to study British administration.
Lady Cripps said that she came back from her China tour with a deep conviction of the possibilities for the future between the two countries, if we could go forward unafraid and with trust in each other Central News.
