Berlin, via Washington.
"It will take time for the Chinese
to work out their government,
Doctor Schurman said, and when
this is done it may be different
from any other similar from Of gov
ernment. The United States and
European governments must have
confidence and faith in the Chinese.
The United States can help by pur-
suing it's present policy Of sym
pathy and assistance when asked.
China would resent forced Eu-
ropean or American direction to
her efforts.
There is soon to be a. constitu.
tional convention in China. This
convention will consider a united
constitutional government to re,
place the present prOVlSlOIldl gov
ernment. China must get rid Of
her rival military leaders to have
a united government. This may be
done by negotiations and agree
ments.
The Chinese will not turn to
socialism or communism Doctor
Schurman said. 1T is against all
their tradition. The Russians are
busy conducting an active propa-
ganda for Sovietism in Russia.
