CHINA LOOKS TO WEST
FOR FOREIGN HELP AND SKILL PEKIN, March 7. Colonel Badliam Thornhill, the British military attache, has interviewed Ten Shi Sh'an at Tniyuanfu, the capital of his province, in an attempt to solve at first hand the riddle of the Chinese internal conflict. Meanwhile, the Government’s plenary session has closed at Nanking' without acting on Ten’s proffered resignation. A new note in Chinese affairs was struck, however, in the closing speech of Shao Li Tze, who declared that “the state of things in China has reached such a decline and the people are so depressed' and demoralised that the only hope of salvation is for the Government to enter heart and soul into practical social enterprises, developing the country’s natural resources, practising thrift, and employing foreign machinery and foreign technical skill.”
