Envoy Hints World Situation
May Come to China's Rescue
By H. R. BAUKHAGE.
As the State Department faced
the alternative of scrapping the 40
year-old "open-door” policy which
guarantees freedom of opportunity
to all in China or bowing, to the
Japanese war-lords, the new Chi
nese Ambassador today expressed
his views in his first exclusive inter
view since he has presented his
credentials.
"China,” said the vivacious and
youthful appearing Dr. Hu-shih, "is
now passing through her Valley
Forge. I hope that she will soon
reach her Yorktown.”
Because of the delicate situation
arising from Japan's delayed answer
to the State Department's "open
door” note of October 6. the Am
bassador. a student of history him
self, stated that he preferred to
clothe his opinions in an historical
analogy—the analogy of our own
war for independence.
However, he consented to elab
orate his statement briefly.
World Contributes Factor.
"It was not merely military aid
from France.” Dr. Hu-shih pointed
out, “that made the continentals’
victory possible. Not merely money
and ships and a land army fur
nished by France, but the interna
tional situation as well.”
Then he paused, a smile on his
alert features, to aslc a question:
“What was it that changed the
destiny of the ragged and disheart
ened army at Valley Forge?”
Again he paused and then answer
ed his own question in terms plainly
symbolical of the hope of his people.
"It was the international situa
tion of the day—the pressure exerted
_DR. HU-SHIH._
upon England by the disturbances
in Frence, Spain, India, the West
Indies, that made Yorktown pos
sible.
‘‘With no modern organisation;
without proper arms or equipment,
with the terrific depreciation of their
money, the colonial government
fought on.
Must Fight on.
“What China must do to main
tain her independence, is first, to
fight on, second to become the
beneficiary of an international situ
ation which will affect her enemy,
as the international situation dur
in* the American revolution bene
fited the Colonies.”
Further than this, the amiable
and diplomatic doctor refused to go,
but it does not take an American
expert in Far Eastern affairs to fill
out the picture.
Consulted, however, such an ex
pert readily mentioned a number of
sore points which, it was said, might
easily provide an “international sit
uation” sufficient to serve the pur
pose of Chiang Kai-shek's forces.
The first and obvious one is Rus
sia, which needs, according to well
informed observers, only certain
assurances of moral support to cre
ate quite an effective counter-irrita
tion on Manchukuo's (or as Secre
tary Hull would say, "Manchuria's”)
northern border.
rne second is a unmea demon
stration on the part of Great Britain
and the United States which would
assure Japan that neither country
intended to permit its economic in
terests to be wiped out by such acts
as the recent closing of the Yangzte
or the isolation of the British crown
colony of Hong Kong. Others might
be mentioned.
Ambassador Hu-shih would not
even admit that these or other steps
were in his mind.
Knows America—and Silence.
A graduate of Cornell University,
where he also secured his doctorate
in philosophy, he has a keen un
derstanding of the American mind
and the language as well. Indeed,
his ability to use the English lan
guage is only surpassed by his ability
to remain eloquently silent on it.
Since he is neither a businessman
nor a trained politician or diplomat
it is presumable that he was chosen
for his knack for making friends
among Americans whose influence
and friendship will do the most for
his stricken country.
Evidence of such qualifications lies
in the comment accompanying the
honorary degree which he received
at Harvard’s tercentenary, when he
was specifically cited for his services
in bringing together Eastern and
Western civilization.
While China's representative offers
his analogies to America, Chinas
enemy continues to produce head
aches for the United States.
Friendship Held Endangered.
Engineers and businessmen with
interests in the Far East besiege the
State Department with warnings
that unless the United States acts
in her own Interests to aid China,
she will lose, not only her Oriental
trade, but China's friendship as well.
As one espouser of the "open door”
who came to Washington to malce
his plea, declared, "China will fol
low the way of the Czechs if Japan
is allowed to dominate her. She
will take up the Japanese slogan of
■ Asia-for-the-Asiatics, cast her lot
with her victor and cut all ties with
the West.”
Meanwhile, the Maritime Com
mission watches a rate war in Pa
cific shipping threaten to empty
American ships or force a huge sub
sidy. Tire Japanese made their at
tack by cutting rates on Brazilian
coffee from $1 to 50 cents a bag.
And Dr. Hu-shih scans the waters
for an international situation.
