Even Italy and Germany have held their propaganda hörses, and I don't wonder at it in view of their excursions into the war in Spain. I feel that I am right in saying that the moral support of the world is on the side of China in the present trouble. But more than moral support is needed from the world Powers if China is to develop her splendidly conceived modernisation plan. There must be tangible proof of the world's confidence in her.

It is then that China's great time will come, and if she will discern between those who desire to exploit her and those who sincerely desire to help to develop her, there can be no doubt as to the ultimate of her national re: construction plan.
My point is that China has gain 1 she stands everything to united throughout the present crisis, but if she deviates in any particular from her sagely set by her leaders, then, for many, many years, she will sacri- fce the good-will and earnest support of the major nations of the world.
