The past few months. have been months of considerable anxiety to the officials awaiting his return and many telegrams have been dispatch. ed in the hope of hastening that journey. Now if Marshal Li comes back simply to resign, as is suggest ed, and a less popular chief takes his place, the whole work of mould. ing the conflicting elements into a cohesive whole and providing a basis of "understanding and co- operation between the Government departments, will have to be done over again. And who can say whether it will be successfully ne complished? It is a serious, and entirely unnecessary risk which would be avoided completely by a declaration that the Marshal in tended to stay permanently in the position for which events have proved he is pre-eminently fitted. We trust that such a declaration will be issued and that the dis quieting rumours of other plane, which are doing a considerable amount of harm, will be finally laid
