OATH TO CRUSH FENG
CHINESE PRESIDENT TAKES VOW NOT REGARDED SERIOUSLY United P.A.—By Telegraph—Copyright Reed. 11.30 a.m. SHANGHAI, Mon. A Nanking Government official message announces that President Chiang Kai-Shek, standing before a photograph of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, swore upon the spirit of the founder of the Republic to proceed to Hankow immediately, and never return unless Marshal Feng Yu-Hsianga and the Kuominchun are crushed. This announcement is not regarded seriously, since Chiang has made similar avowals previously, without fulfilment.
Chiang is hemmed in by his enemies, and there have been three attempts at his assassination. Meanwhile, the situation on the war front is obscure, though reports reveal that the Nanking forces are experiencing numerous setbacks.
