China To Eradicate Opium Evil By End Of 1940

CBUNGKING, Junė 5 (Central) — Despite the Sino-Jan- anese hostilities, the Chiness Government is determined to eradicate the opium evil before the end of 1940 in accordance with its original scheme, declared Generalissimo Chiang Kal- shek in a radio broadcast on the occasion of the centenary of the destruction of a huge shipment of opium by order of Viceroy Lin Tae-hsu at the Bocca Tigris in 1839.

The Generalissimo pointed out the necessity of strong und healthy citizens to serve as reserves for the Chinese Army 10 as to carry the war of resistance to a successful end, and in order to have such citizens the opium evil must be totally eliminat- ed

Collecting Experience

This year's expedition is really reconnoitring and collecting ex-

Another well-known Germán ex- plorer, Dr. W. Filchner, is once

again in Asia, this time in Nepal,

between Tibet and British India, where he hopes to complete his studles of the magnetism of the

earth in Central Asia.

The Maharaja of Nepal is giving Dr. Filchner his full support so that it is to be hoped, that he will be able to continue his work. without unpleasant interruptions such as last time when he was im- prisoned in Tibet for many weeks.
