CHINA’S FIGHT

FOR INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE

WELLINGTON, October 11

“To-day China is iigliting for international and social justice, and is equally opposed to imperialism on the one hand and communism on the' other/’ said Mr Ohunhow H. Pao, consul for China in New Zealand, at the twenty-second anniversary celebration in Wellngton to-day of th© founding if the republic. “China,” he continued, “lias withstood the onslaughts of attacking armies in bygone centuries, because the Chinese national spirit cannot be broken. Nationalism to the Chinese to-day is not only a creed, but a passion and a religion. There are ample evidences to show that. China is trying to concentrate her national energy, and to work unitedly to resist foreign aggression like that adopted and practised by the Japanese, which is doomed to failure.

“The policy of the present Chinese Government is based upon Dr 'Sun Yat-Seu’s three principles of the people, which aim to secure for China a position of independence and equality among the nations, and to establish in China a government of the people, by the people, and for the 1 people. The factors that make for unity and solidarity, progress and reconstruction, for enlightenment and prosperity, as well as the greatest good for the greatest number, must triumph eventually.”
