Warning

Nanking, Apr. 5.

In spite of President Chiang Kai-shek's refusal to run for the Presidency, all members of the Kuomin- tang Central Executive Committeo remain con vinced that the Party could name no other Pro-} sidential candidate over and above him. With the issue still unresolved towards the end of the Kuomintang session yesterday, the Executive Committee decided to hold another conference on Tuesday when efforts will be concentrated on the nomination of a Presidential candidate, while the Vice-Presidential aspirants will be allowed to stand as they are.
