In his statement, Mr. Hu again denied that he had ever planned to go abroad ond said that all such "news" concerning his impending visit to Europe and America is manufactured by the Nanking pro- paganda bureaux and even by Mr. Wang Ching Wel, President of the Executive Yuan, who said that Mr. Eu desired to leave Hongkong for abroad.
"As a result of this "Invented" news of my going abroad, the bonds at Shanghai are going up," Mr. Hu asserted. "Such story was. eirculated to enhance the prestige of the Nanking Government, which was hoping, to negotiate a big loan from a foreign Power."
Mr. Hu also opposed the coming Fifth National Congress of the Kuomintang to be called by the
quarters in Nanking, and this story duly appeared in Chinese and foreign newspapers at Shanghal on July 3 Then a foreign news agency at Shanghai relayed the message to Hong Kong papers."
