Daily reports from Hankow emphasize the pitiful plight of the wounded, the inadequacy of the hospital arrangements, and the danger of plague spreading unless immediately checked. Strangely the! Chinese authorities did not'hesitate to appeal for foreign assistance, medical and financial, and the latter despite the well known wealth of the Hankow Government. The appeal for financial assistance caused a strong protest among the foreigners on account of the huge personal- losses of the Hankow and Nanking victims, which have not been compensated, but medical aid is not grudged.
