NEW YORK. June 2s.-An inter
view with WI Tnngfang, former
Chinese minister at Washington
given to a representative Of the Asso-
ciated Press shortly before his death
at Canton, has been received here by
mail. Asked why the South China
government. in which he was lead
ing hguFs. was making q military ex-
pedition against the north. he replied:
I'VE do not want war; we want
peace. We do not crave the blood
shed and the horrors that follow the
path Of any army. But there are
times when 1t II best to fight. when
war is almost a necessity. and we be-
iieve this IL the time. We are con-
tinuing military operations because
we think 1t 10 in the interests OF our
country. We are fighting for the ex-
believe is the right government
There are only two things to stop us
from fighting. One is for the forces
Of the north to change their policy OF
government to conform with our pol
10y, the other Is that the foreign
powers recognize rs as a legally con-
stituted government in China.
