Chiang Kai-shek Appeals For Unity
CHUNGKING, March 11
Marshal Chiang Kai-shek today appealed for national unity for the sake of victory over Japan. He spoke at the closing session of the People’s Political Council.
The council elected Tung Pi-wu, a Communist, a member, although he was not present. This is interpreted by the vernacular press as a favourable move towards ending the friction between the Nationalist Government and the Chinese Communists.
A Hongkong message says Chinese reports confirm Japanese claims that they seized large quantities of materials, including 1000 bales of cotton yarn and 10,000 drums of tung oil, stored at Shiutung and intended for export to the United States.
