More China In London

Mr, C.D, Pearson who arrived home a fortnight azo has been in London this week. He looks very well In spite of what must have been very trying times during the war round Shanghai. To hear him talk tone might think he had rather enjoyed it, as I really believe he did.

Mr. Chang Ssu-lee, warden of China Institute, gave a big ten party on Wednesday to Introduce about, 70 Chinese students to Sir Hughe Knatchbull-Hugessen and Mr. Prédeaux-Bruno who got home recently. 1 could not go as T was booked for Mr. Timperiey's talk at the House, but Mr. Chang told me afterwards' that now looking very with warmth: of his understand that the not deny some usefulness in the Northeliffe Press, Like the loud, vul-far gabble of the geese at Rome, it may arouse citizens to a conse' of their danger." And again of the policy of Mr, Ramsay MacDonald and Sir John Simon: "But can we expect fof a Prime Minister whose head is the alt, and a Foreign Secretary [whose heart is in his boots?"

There was nothing ike Colvin's leaders, and nothing ike the fine literary flavour of the "Morning Post," of which nothing remains now but the name printed in small type fon the front page of the "Telexraph." Perhaps he is glad now that he did Jaot Tong survive the paper which no offer could induce him to leave,

Text read from the printed page and cleaned; old type leaves the occasional error.
