To the Editor of the "NortH-Cuiwa Daty News."
Sm—In_ this morning's second leader, under the caption "A New Danger," mention is made. about news broadcast by certain stations in Shanghai apropos of the recent warlike operations, We should like you to know that all news which has been broadcast from: X.C.B.L. has been subjected severe censorship ever since we Jeommenced the practice of putting such information on the air. News fromthe contesting parties broadcast, on the one hand, through a communique received by way of the Municipality of Greater Shanghai, and on the other, direct from the' Japanese News Bureau, 'Sudging from the article, under lew, the trouble which has a casting of incorrect news must be due to infaceurate information put out, in Chinese' from some Station other than ours. We consider it only fair:
this Station, therefore, and to Jour Director of Broadcasting, that mention should be made that all news put out from X.C.B.L. is Strictly official news and "has'always been delicately handled, We have received a number of letters of thanks from foreigners lup country who were unable to re-Jecive newspapers during the height fof the trouble, and these indicate how much our news service has been appreciated.
We agree that Broadcast news jin China should be under the surveillance of the Nanking Gov-forament, and in due course this will" undoubtedly be "the case. Meanwhile, the Chinese news from X.C.B.L. is controlled by the Munifipality' of Greater Shanghai and there need not be any fear on the part of our Chinese listeners that the news is in'any' way incorrect, For the benefit of all up-country, listeners, we have also broadcast with the consent of the "Shanghai Evening Post and Mercury," the' main headlines which have appear-fed in their afternoon paper, and wwe have broadcast similar inform: Yon from the "North-China Daily News" upon one oF two occasions after obtaining consent, Under these circumstances, we shall be glad if you will inform the public that, there will be no cause for alarm from news items broad: feast from X.C.B.L. should experience a change of heart and. exercise repentance and Seek Justification by faith. Te is the dise interested acceptance of a new mode the entrance into a Nothing else will rhe' fact Is plain to anyone 'y Measure of common sense, and the "theological "language of Cranmer's day fits the fact like Plaster. Meanwhile good works like ko" disarmament © conference the Kellogg' Pact are. mot done God willed. and commanded them to be"doney that ie to. say, they. re-resent ho actual slftranaformation onthe part of the nations, nor a nly "fail of their" good. intention, Sit" tocome. the" instrumenta "of Decullnely cruel deceit Bhernature of

Fetha een we, soe of think that things might o better all hands were'a ttle happier there "were'a little less recourse. te Taw sensation happiness, and a clearing of the inner springs of Joy. Possibly "we might "Incline more favourably" than heretofore the idea of w life that gives Jess "play" to. the inatinet. that have so. horribly" overdriven, Tittle more to thone. that repressed and deformed; a collective.
preclude the enjoyment of 8. una anther that doesn't ind reasonable happiness." Bue Hough we may regard the auch" a ite rather" thoughtfully, Just now perhaps even wistfully, we have no teeulty' for realising. 1
