Communists would necessitate the overthrow of Wong. what
slogan can this be, being so strange and absurd?
From
this we can conclude that if the Anti-Communist movement
is not a policy of Soviet Russia, the attempt to overthrow
Tseung must have been due to an individual grudge.
We beg that you will again wire to the other party,
informing them that our Anti-Communist movement here in
April had nothing to do with Tseung, and that it was merely
because we could not bear to see the destruction of our
Kuomintang and nation. Fearing that the Communists would
cause an infantile disturbance, we promoted the movement
as an infantile resistance. We hope that Mr. Wong will
give up his desire to kill lir. Tseung because of his being
a meritorious dog and stop his mobilization so as not to
cause the people in the Eastern Regions such misery and
calamity as have been experienced by Hu-nan and Hu-peh in consequence of infantile folly. We will then have ourselves
fettered and surrendered to him and let him maim me with
his own knife so as to gratify him. Or he can revert to
his long cherished ambition and work hand in hand with us
in our anti-Communist policy. This will prove a better
way of settlement, for the calamity of war among us
comrades must be avoided in the interests of both China
and the world.
Li (Shek Tsang) and Tsoi (Yuen Pui) and others are at present all away, and in view of the urgent situation, we have no time to make a selection of our words, but
rashly submit you this sorrowful appeal first.
When we have gathered Li and others, we will discuss
the matter with them and send you a detailed reply. We hope you will communicate our opinions to all our comrades
Wu Hon Man, Nau Wing Kin and
Ng King Hang.
