·LICIES:

The decision yesterday to con- tinue the anti-Communist camp- aign except on conditions tanta- mount to the communists' complete

surrender was a final blow to the hopes of the Government's oppon- ents.

The C.E.C. thus complete the route of the sympathisers of the Sianfu mutineers.

The general effect of the decision of the session is emphasised in the Kuomintang's determination to re- tain the reins of power in the face of the clamour for a so-called Po- pular Front, at least until the Na- tional People's Congress on Novem ber 12.-Reuter.

CENTRAL RESERVE BANK

London, To-day. Although the Chinese Govern ment has not hitherto adopted the project for the establishment of a central reserve bank on the basis of a Central Bank of China, some such step is likely to be taken soon er or later. says. "The Financial Times" in a leader. -

If, as may be expected, the bank is gives a monopoly in the note issues, a decisive step will have taken towards unifying the inter- nal currency system

Here is what some of the leading. owners said before the race.

SER VICTOR SASSOON—“We are going to win the Derby, but we are not sure which pony will do it.

DERBY SWEEP FIGURES. SEE STOP PRESS.

Both ponies are very fit.”

MR. L. DUNBAR Happy Eve will win without a doubt. I do not think Rosemary is fit enough. The race will be between the Sassoon and En. Tong-sen stables and no one else.

MR LILAN SANG "Happy Eve is likely to win, with Havoc Eve as second and Rosemary third.”

̈ MR-_ EU-TONG-SEN- “I think Happy Eve will win, although, course, hope Rosemary will win."
