"No Compromise" Statement Endorsed in Telegram Chungking, Jan. 27.
The Executive Committee of the Chinese Communist Party has sent a telegram of congratulations on the opening of the Kuomintang Conference, in which it supports General Chiang Kai-shek's statement that "China must meet, in any circumstances, compromise with or surrender to Japan."
The telegram declares that "resistance must be put above everything else and unity means victory. Cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Chinese Communist Party and national unity," adds, "are inseparable. When there is unity there is no obstacle we cannot overcome and there is no enemy we cannot destroy."
The statement made yesterday by Baron Hiranuma, the Japanese Prime Minister, that it must take some time before a new order in East Asia can be realized is interpreted by Chinese newspapers as an indication that "Japan is rapidly approaching the end of her resources and is no longer confident regarding the prospects of success in her adventure in China."
