Canton Resolutions Approved

NINE NEW SIGNATURES

From Our Own Correspondent] Canton, To-day. Kuomintang leaders here are elated by a telegram from nine members of the Kuomintang Central Executive and Central Supervisory Committees who are supporting the declaration of Canton leaders of September 8. demanding, in substance, the re organisation of the Nunking Government and the change of the present pro-Japanese policy.

The declaration of September | 8 was signed by 21 members, and now the number has increas- ed to 30 by the adherence of the Shanghai faction. The nine Shanghai members have been living in retirement for the past three years, but as members of the Central Committees they are entitled to have a voice in Kuo- mintang affairs.

Among the nine members is Mr. Liu Lu-yin, right hand man of Mr. Hu Han-min, and director of Kuomintang propaganda here. He went to Shanghai to induce the other eight members to ad- here to the policy of the Canton leaders, and has been successful in this mission.

It is likely that the nine mem- bers will come to Canton very soon to deliberate with local lead- (Continued on Page 9)
