CONFIDENCE

IN CHINA'S FUTURE.

NO CAUSE FOR DESPONDENCY.

FAITH IN THE INFLUENCE OF THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS.

The following article by Dr. Wu, one of the Vice-Presidents of the League of Nations, appeared in the London Press a few weeks ago, prue to China's unsuccessful attempt to gain. olcation to a sest on the League Council:- There is no reason for being de. even if one were to point to our spondent about the future of my

national record for. the last decade country, and I must hero dispel any

to prove that we bad littlo justi- fiention for entertaining such hopes, iden that may be current to day it would not alter a bit of our about Chinese patriots not feeling confidence in Chinese recuperative vory hopeful or optimistic with re-future that we presage for our coun power or our belief in the great gard to the future of their native try, land.

The contrary is so much the case that I feel justified in stressing it more particularly in this articlo.

Ohina's Recuperative Power. It must be remembered that China is an area as large as Europe (Russia I include in Asin); that our population, furthermore, is as large as that of Europe and, lastly, that wo possess a far older civilis tion that goes back to the very dawn of history in the world, Im possible, therefore, not to feel very proud of our country, and sanguine as to its future. It would be very surprising indeed if this were not the case, when we recollect her proud history of the past, her eon- tributions to the sum of human civilisation it present and her immeasurable potentialities.

One must realise that no untion pasca abruptly from one extreme form of government to another without this reacting considerably on its people, and that to change very suddenly from a form of government that is almost mediæval to one that it practically modern is bound to have very strong | repercussions in the country

affected. In other words, the so- called Chinco troubles of the last twelve years are merely, the "derangament" that is, incidental to so drastic & change. These troubles are really nothing to worry about and we have now got them woll in hand; all this, I might re- mark, in a far shorter time than most people had possible.

of nations and the rank to which she is entitled. She has been member of the League since its be- ginning, and her devotion to the Cause of Peace and her conviction that reason and justice alone are capable of solving human problems are so sincere and traditional that she has also signed and ratified the multilateral tranty with which are associated the names of two greut statesmen, one on each side of the Atlantic, and according to which each signatory Power bound ftself GRAND HOTEL DES WAGONS, to renounce. war as an instrument of national policy, while also she has given every evidence of her sincera desire to keep s peace.

Thus, when a short time ago a which was in no manner due to serious international crisis' arose, Chinese inspiration, and which created quite a stir of anxiety among our friends, throughout the world, my Government, even before the above treaty came into effect, sanounced that it would respect the the letter, but in the spirit. Sinca terms of this treaty, not only in that moment and in the face of rent provocation, China ins been as good as her word and exercised the most exemplary self-restraint and moderation.
