"T have duly received your mes Gage. Unfortunately, however, 1 have some points on which I'am unable to agree with you. Fo stance, as to the question of eid warfare, I consider that the most urgent question for our nation not the immediate cessation warfare as you stated in your mes-ago but is rather the removal of the caus¢ of the present warfare. Consequently, the immediate task for us now is the convocation of 8 National Assembly for the purpose Of defining the basic principle of administration. It is utterly against our principles to allow personal distatorship, thereby preventing reai-Zation of national aspirations.
"We can not recognize the reglue erich is founded on arbitrary mons. poly of the Party powers and of the Party's National Congress. Until such time as it is possible to convoke the National Assembly, oar efforts must. be concentrated on removing personal military dicta and the extension of democratic, polities, "In conclusion, I must ald that the nation as a whole will hold the authorities responsible for permitting Hunan, Hupeh and Kiangsi to be placed at the merey of. the Red devastation, What I state in this message isnot my persoral_ vise But it is the representative" view of my conrades in the Enlarged Kuomintang Congress."
