CHINESE VIEW
THIRD & DARKEST ACT. TRIBUTE TO AUSTRALIAN RESOLUTION. (Received This Day, 12.20 p.m.) CHUNGKING, March 18. Summing up the present stage as the third and darkest act in the Far Eastern war, Mr T. F. Tsiang, former Chinese Ambassador to Moscow and now official Chinese Government spokesman, said; “Though I realise the seriousness of the situation confronting our Australian friends, it is my firm conviction that Act 3 is not going to be a replica of Acts 1 and 2. Australia and New Zealand will fight even more bravely than the Anzacs did. They have that iron will that even FieldMarshal Ludendorf admired.” Mr Tsiang pointed out that a blitzkrieg cannot work against a resolute people in large countries, and he instanced China, Russia and London.
SPANISH COMMENT (Received This Day, 11.50 a.m.) MADRID, March 18. , Commenting on General MacArthur s appointment, the newspaper “ABC states: “It is to be feared that his wellknown prestige may evaporate in Australia if the Japanese wish to disembark on its shores, instead of preferring to surround it by occupying the New Hebrides and New Zealand, and so cutting it off from America.”
