"It seems to me that many of you would serve your country best by remaining at your posts in China, at any rate until the time to consider and pass judgment on your special fitness for Unis or that type of service." Ultimately, the Ambassador added, "Each one must decide for himself, but
the necessary machinery, for passing judgment on your special fit- ness is at present being set up."
