As for the remedies, Dr. Lew suggested that the only cure for incomplete modernisation was more thorough modernisation. The only way to get out of a tube was to arrive at the next station. The only cure for democratisation was the old one, more democracy. Whether the democracy adopted by China would be of the American or the English type no one could yet sar. But one thing was certais. China would never go back to a

England had had her troubles, but they came piece by piece; her revolutions, but they extended over centuries; her enemies, but she had fought them. one by one, and when she faced several enemies she had ailies by her side. China's troubles and her fevolutions came on her all at once.
