WORLD TRIBUTE TO LAWRENCE

Chiang Outlines Programme

[Special to the "Hong Kong Dally Prea (Copyright).]

Chengtu, June 3.

The greatly curtailed activities of the Communists in Szechuan whose Influence is rapidly waning no longer give cause for unwar- ranted alarm or worry. This op- timistic view of the Red situation In west China was expressed by General Chiang Kai-Shek, Chair- man of the Military Affairs Com-` mission, who spoke this" morning before an audience of over 1,000 Szechuan, government officials,, re- presentative of public organiza- tions, and students at the pro vincial government auditorium.

"Szechuan province, population of 70,000,000 and its vast territory, has no fear from only 40,000 or 50,000 remnant Communists. Even without my person direction at the front, you could well wipe out these bandits. The primary purpose of my valt to this province is to effect politi- cal

and administrative reforms with an eye to the welfare of the people at large," General Chiang declared.

DEFECTIVE LABITS Futting aside the question of the Communists as one that causes no worry, General Chiang proceeded to deal critically with the defective habits of Szechuan officials and outlined a programme for their improvement,

In the revolution, said General Chlang. the Szechuanese played a brillant part. With the rich possibilities of the province, they should be able to-day to continue the glorious spirit of the former revolutions, of Szechuan and serve as the foundation of national re- But to-day Szechuan is a covery. house, divided-divided into dis- order

for Has with those responsible party, political and military duties, because in their brains is but ane thought "Self."

So far as individual charac teristics are concerned, selishness should once and for all be stamp- ed out," General Chiang "ad- manished, whatever you do, you should put the interests of the people and the nation above your own. Diligence, self-denial and sacrtice should be adopted as your threefold motto in personal

conduct."

THE OPIUM EVIL

From the Social standpoint, two toples were given special emphasis by General Chlang, who stated that supersitions should be ruled out and the opium evil should be eradicated. Without the uproot- ing of these two shackles, the people of Szechuan would forever be in the grip of mental agony and physical deterioration,

Turning to the political sphere, General Chiang laid great stress on the fact that official greed and corruption should immediately be done away with, while military leaders, without express instruc- tion from the National Gover- ment, should have no right to hold concurrently civil posts in the provincial administration.
