DIFFERENCES"

Nanking, October 9.

The following message to the nation has been issued by Warig Ching Wel on the occasion of the Double Tenth.

"In observing the National Day this year, during a period when the country is confronted with a most serious crisis. I call upon everyone to remember the noble efforts with which the. founders so gloriously established the Republic, to bear in mind the great difficulties which the country is going through at the present moment and to exert their utmost effort to help to usher in a bright and prosperous future. «

"There are indeed a few considerations which it devolves upon everyone seriously to reflect uponand to carry out with determina- tion.

+

Firstly: We must exert every effort to promote productive enterprises for national reconstruction, it is only through these, enterprises that the strength of the people can be fostered and grow. I should like, therefore, to see all the energy of the Nation concentrated on them.

"Secondly; We must see clearly what precisely is the situation that is facing the whole world to-day and the countries of Eastern Asia and determine the exact position of China so that we may proceed with the work of national salvation in accord- ance with appropriate and consistent measures.

“Thirdly: We must all be supremely patient towards the dif- ference existing within the borders of our country and maintain a peaceful and conciliatory attitude, only thus can we expect them gradually to disappear and allow justice to prevail over them...

"These are the Important considerations and I call upon the entire nation to exert its utmost to give them practical realisa- tion:"-Reuter..
