Nanking, Oct. 26 Sir Rabindranath Tagore, world renowned Indian poet, has made known that his sympathy and public opinion in India are with China for resistance against Japanese aggression. The poet's sympathy was conveyed in a message to Dr. Tsai Yuan-pei, president of the Academia Sinica, and Mr. Tai Chi-tao, president of the Exarhination Yuan.
The message also expresses indignation at Japan's violation of the Oriental ideal of peace and harmony, and despite his having many friends in the Island Empire the poet says that he will pray and work for the defeat of the aggressor nation for the sake of the restoration of universal righteousness and human-y.—Central News.
