On General Chang Fa Kwei returning from Nanking towards
the middle of June, 1946, a delegation from Your Petitioner's
newspaper was sent to interview him. After placing the facts
before him and after presenting the said petition to him, he
evinced sympathy towards Your Petitioner pointing out that it was
not his intention to include Your Petitioner's name in the Second
List of Traitors which had been published prematurely during
his absence in Nanking. An amicable arrangement was arrived at
with General Chang Fa Kwei as follows :
(a)
(b)
General Chang Fa Kwei's representative, Mr. Wong Hau-

was to be accepted as nominal publisher of the Wah Kiu
Yat Po at a substantial salary.
The property and management of the paper was to be
retained in Status Quo.
(c) The order for arrest of Your Petitioner would be
suspended.

"representatives" and also with the obvious policy of gradual
infiltration into the editorial staff and the gradual obtaining
of control of the newspaper's policy. Though these new members
