China’s Ten-year Reconstruction Programme
Received Sunday, 8.60 p.m. CHUNGKING, Mar. 6. A review of Marshal Chiang Kaishek’s book, “China’s Destiny,” discloses a 10-year reconstruction plan for China, envisaging the building of 20,000 transport planes and educating 2,460,000 technical and vocational school graduates compared with 417,000 in the last five years. The Kuomintang is seen as functioning as the nerve centre in reconstruction. Defining the attitude of other parties Marshal Chiang Kai-shek declares that he has no preconception against the various ideologies and organisations and hopes other parties will not impede reconstruction by illegal measures, for instance maintaining troops and asserting regional domination. China’s destiny must be decided within two years and during the period of war resistance. In the past her destiny depended on diplomacy. In the future it will be decided by the people themselves. China has entered a new phase of reconstruction with the abolition of extraterritoriality.
