DISCUSSING LOAN FOR CHINA
MR. WANG CHING- WEI IS OPTIMISTIC
LOOKING INTO FUTURE
Nanking, Apr. 2. Prospects of a foreign loan to China at present are nebulous, although negotiations are continu ing and It is hoped present difficul ties will be overcome, Mr. Wang | Ching-wol, President of the Execu- tive Yuan, told the United Press in B# exclusive interview at his official residence in Nanking to- day.

While he declared no Sino- Japanese rapprochement had been reached and added that such n rapprochement in the sense of a complete understanding was attainable while Japanese troops occupied Manchuria and Jehol, Wang and ho believed Japanese opposition had played no part in reducing the prospects of early in- ternational financial assistance.
In the course of an interview lasting more than an hour, the President of the Executive Yuan revealed that the Chinese Govern- ment is still making efforts, the nature of which he could not re- veal, to persuade the United States Government to modify its allver purchase policy so as to alleviate the harmful consequences to China.
He spoke optimistically of the campaign against Communists and of the Government's efforts to deal with other problems which have arisen during what he called the "transition perlod" in the National ist Government's history.

Sir Fabian Ware, chairman of the committee of the Commission, says in the report that although it is known that many visitors do not slyn their names in the visitors' books the number who did sign during 1934 wna 112,994.

"There is no sign at present," Sir Fabian Ware states, "of decrease in the number of bodies of British soldiers found on the battlefields in France. A recent nonlysis reveals the fact that 1,240 were found in 1934, and that com. pared with 1933, this showed an Increase of 116.

"From-the end of 1921 when the work of searching the battlefields was finally closed down and visible signs of isolated graves remained, to the end of 1934, no fewer than 36,530 British graves have been found and moved into cemeteries."
The total number of naines re- gistered in June, 1931, was 1,104,- 890. Of this number 687,117 had been identified and buried in known graven, while 517,773 were this recorded as "Missing." or
