Questioned over Mr, Hu Han- min, retired President of the Legis- tive Yuan, Mr. Wang said that the Government desired him to come to Nanking

share in the shouldering of the responsibilities of the nation, that it was willing to accept and consider his con- structive criticisms and give ex- planations that would clear up any misunderstandings, and that if Mr. Hu was planning to go abroad it would be on his own accord, but the Government would extent him every assistance.

Regarding the Felping Political Readjustment Coundi. Ms. Wans declared that it would be ..con. tinued, and that General Huang Fu, who is to retain the concurrent post as its chairman.

instalments are to be constituted, has not been disclosed.

The purpose of the purchase is with the object of assisting local over the present banks to tide shortage of silver, which will be particularly keenly felt with the coming Lunar New Year, on the 4th of February, the customary time for settling with native banks and business concerns.

Ever since the United States launched on a suver purchasing programme, the country has been gradually drathed of the stock of that commodity. Around $200,000.- 600 worth of silver is estimated to have been exported last year, and only the imposition of a sliver ex- port tax, introduced in the autumn,

put some check to that outflow. with settling time at hand, it is hoped, this importation will help

to atablize local conditionë ̈ and

pel uneasiness.-
