Money Pouring in From Abroad Nenking, Aug. 25.
Chinese abroad, like their brethren at home, have answered the call of their Fatherland for money to wage a long drawn out war with Japan.
The Chinese community in San Francisco, U.S.A., alone is reported to have raised U.S. $100,000 to swell the Chinese Government's war chest, while Chinese residents in other American cities such as Seattle and New York have also organized fund-raising campaigns.
Chinese in the South Seas have likewise risen to the occasion, For instance, those in Singapore have succeeded in collecting $200,000, Singapore currency. In Manila, a similar movement is in full swing to create a fund for war relief purposes in China.—Central News.
