At present the Central Government has neither ceded the Three Eastern Provinces and Jeho! nor systematized and our actions be made unanimous. Tt is, of cours not appropriate for me to reve the details of our plan at this moment. Mr, Feng seems to think that the Three Eastern Provinet and Jehol can be restored the same way' that Tolan (Dolonor) was restored. But with all due respect. T must point out to him that the national crisis having come to such pass, what we need is genuine strength and not mere high-sounding speeches which not. only cannot give us strength but will, on the "contrary, attenuate what strength we now possess. This. 18 'a point that we must heed.
'The above is the real why the Government must not let the Charhar situation drag on and solve itself. The four points raised in the Circular of July 28 for the solution of the Chi blem' were based on his mental point.
Tt may be argued that unless the Government resorts to armed force, cannot but pursue a policy of sez faire. On the other hand, if it rejects this policy, Government must resort to force.
My reply is: If there be other methods for the settlement of the problem, the Government will hot resort to force, There s0- called "other methods" imply that members of the Central Government should understand one _another mutually, that Mr. Fen should accept certain advice, an that. the people's streng's should be developed so that they have a clear understanding of the situation and make constructive proposals to the Government. I pin.
hopes mainly on the development of the people's. strength.
