But as the old Scotch saying has it, the best. laid plans of mice and men gang aft agley," and especially has that proved the case in this campaign of warfare in Kwangtung. If the plan to hem in and destroy CHEx's present fight ing force succeeds, it is praetically cer- tain that Peking will organise another to maintain the campaign. Mr. WINSTON CHURCHILL has recently written of the European War that "the most complete victory ever gained in arms has failed to solve the European problem or remove the dangers which produced the war" And it can be said with equal truth that the severe blow struck by Dr. Sux at Waichow will not solve the Chinese pro blem or save him from another campaign so long as the military party in the ascendant at Peking remains committed to a policy of securing the reunification of the country by force of arms. It is obvious that this will prove a long, and "a very costly adventure, and possibly, n realisation of this faet, made the clearer by Dr. Suy's successes in Kwangtung and the tenseness of the struggle in Szechuan, may help to persuade those who are directing these destructive campaigna to fire broke out early yesterday morn seek a solution of the problem by the ing in a miscellaneous goods shop at No. Round Table Conference which Sir 58, New Market Street, occupied by the ROBERT Ho Toxo has been industriously Hing Shun Loong Firm.
