CHINESE FACTIONS
NANKING AND HANKOW
CHIANG TAKES AH OATH Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. SHANGHAI, October 28. ' (Received October 29, at 11.30 a .nr.) A Nanking Government official message announces that Chiang Kai-shek, standing before a photograph of Sun Yat-sen, snore upon the spirit of the founder of the Republic to proceed to Hankow immediately and never to return unless Fang Yu-hsiang and the Kuominchun were crushed. This announcement is not regarded seriously, since Chiang made similar avowals previously without fulfilling them; Chiang is hemmed in by bis enemies, and there have been three attempts at his assassination.
Meanwhile the situation on the war front is obscure, though reports reveal that the Nanking forces are experiencing numerous set-backs.
