Washington, Feb. 7.
Dr. C. T. Wang, Chinese' Ambassador to the United States, conferred with President Roosevelt in the White House to-day at the request of Gen. Chiang Kai-shek.
While the subject under discussion was not revealed, well-informed circles believed Dr. Wang had informed President Roosevelt of China's current military strength in the campaign against Japan, and outlined to him plans of China's resistance.
Rumours current in unofficial quarters said that the Chinese diplomat also discussed with the President the possibility of a conciliation move on the part of the United States.
While both White House officials and members of the Chinese Embassy remained non-committal, observers believed such a move by the United States was extremely unlikely in view of the fact that the American Government has repeatedly upheld a policy of non-interference in the Far Eastern conflict.
Chinese circles here likewise regarded the possibility of American intervention at this time as remote. pointing out that China was confident of her present position and was convinced that Japan was already greatly weakened financially.
From information received here, observers inferred that the conference between Mr. Roosevelt and Dr. Wang had been designed to keep the President appraised of developments in China's resistance programme against-the Japanese.—United Press.
