MARSHAL CHIANG

GRANTS INTERVIEW TO CHINESE PRESS

A DISBANDMENT LOAN

Canton. Yesterday. According to news from Shang- hai, Marshal Chiang Kai-shek on Saturday gave an interview at the Shanghai Defence Commissioner's Office to the Chinese Press. A number of questions was asked and answered by the Chairman on the following matters:

In regard to the Sino-Russian Central Government affair, the

has adopted two courses: to pro- tect the interests of the country and to safeguard the world's From the very beginning peace. of the present dispute, China has steadfastly followed this line of setion and will not give way on any account.

The disbandment of troops which will be completed within two months, will be carried out simultaneously throughout the country,

The Government will launch a domestic loan of $25,000,000 for

the disbandment of troops, a part of which sum will be used to pay up arrears.

Separation of military from civil affairs will prevent military men holding civil posts or civil officials holding military posts.

No Anti-Government Articles The Press representatives are asked not to publish anti-Govern- ment articles by the reactionaries who are spreading false ramours. But, inasmuch as the position of the Central Government is firm and sound, there is no apprehen- sion felt on account of the re- actionaries.--Canton News Agency.

Abdulla Meah, the serang of the tug "Ngatsein," which foundered in the Gulf of Martaban on December 18 last, was sentenced to six months' rigorous imprisonment for failing to save the lives of two European officers, the captain and engineer, who were drowned.

Accused pleaded "guilty" and way fined $4,700 or 12 months hard labour.

Another man was charged with the unlawful possession of 20 taels of prepared opium. He was arrest- ed whilst riding in a ricsha in West Point, and the opium was found tied round his waist.

Fined $1,000 or six months.
