‘•One of the wonderful things about the Chinese is their orderliness, and this speaks well, too, for the International police,” says Miss Edith Parkerson, of Christchurch, who has recently returned to New Zealand after three years as a nurse in a Shanghai hospital. ‘‘The Chinese are essentially a peaceloving people, but this aggression has unified China, so it has done good in one way. If China can keep her end up —keep the roads and railways open, so that she can get her supplies—she will eventually win through. If she can win without outside help, it will give her a new national pride. The Chinese have'done great work in providing hospitals and first-aid stations, and the women are doing their part nobly.”
