CHIANG KAI SHEK

URGES RESISTANCE TO JAPANESE AND HOME REFORMS

In response to Chiang Kai Shek's repeated requests for co-operation Japanese invasion, Feng Yu Haiang. in a common resistance against the on March 20, 1933, dispatched the following reply from Khigan, setting forth his views on the same and the present situation:

My Dear Kai Shok,-Yesterday I received your telegrum and also your representative, Ma Pah YusD, asking me to come to Paoting to discuss plans of resisting Japan, for which I wish to express my deep appreciation.

The national crisis has come to. such a pass that the only way to save the nation is to unite and co operate. You and I have under- gone the common ordeal of hard ship and peril in the consumption of the Northward Expedition. Our personal relation and friendship has remained as ever. Whatever dif- ferences we might have had in poli- tical views have all arisen from our desire to create a new country.

Now the national erisis has be- come more and more serious. Our enemies are making incessant in- ronde and Attacks on us This is, indeed, the most perilous moment of our nation. Unless we strive to effect self-preservation and exert death resistance, we cannot save our nation from extinction. To this

end I beg harewith to make the following proposals:-

NEW SHOE STYLES,

Many new shapes have been added to our "Bective

range, in Black and Brown Leather.

If you are not already a wearer of "BECTIVE" SHOES, you will be surprised at the length of time a "Bective" sole, will last. In addition, a "Bective" shoe retains its shape as any of our numerous patrons would testify.

A NEW HAT STYLE.

The opinion has been held in the trade for months that too many. men have been wearing one hat only a snap brim for business and week-ends alike.

This

new style is without a bound edge..

3.Our troops at the front have fought the enemies under great odds and tromeadvus difficulties. They are in dire need of pay, provision and supply of ammunitions. You are hereby requested to devise means and afford the same.

4. The troops and volunteers fighting Japan have suffered immense casualties in death. You would be good enough to pension the dead and replenish the ranks.

5.-Politica is the ultimate object and foundation of all military dotions. I fondly hope that you would resolutely purify and reform the government and afford the people an op- portunity of a new start.
