important moral characteristics Of
our country. For more than 10 years
have devoted myself to uniting the
nation, politically and spiritually, for
national salvation and honesty and
Righteousness are OF particular i'm
portance. have always tried to
carry out my own words Anything
that Is beneficial to the country and
the people will do with total disre-
gard Of my personal interests"
After the talk, asked them what
they thought about 1t, and If they
had anything further to say.
Neither OF them had anything to
say, and both left. I then got out
Of bed, dressed, and arrived at the
airfield at 4 pm.
At the time Of departure, Chang
insisted upon accompanying me to
Nanking. I told him several times
to stay, as there would be no one
to command the northeast army when
he left. Besides, 1t might not be
convenient for him to 70 to Nankinp
at present.
He said that he had asked Yang to
look after his troops, as well as
instructed his subordinates to obey
Yang's orders. So we left by plane
and arrived at Loyang at $40 p,m.
In the evening we stayed at the
branch academy Of the military cadets.
Felt Very Much Ashamed,
December 26.-The plane started at
9:45 from Loyang and arrived At
Nanking at 1920 pm. When I saw
President Lin and my comrades OF
the central government waiting for
me at the airfleld, I bowed to the
President and greeted all the others.
/ felt very much ashamed when I
saw, on going into the city in nv
car, that the people gave me such
a hearty welcome on the streets.
I recollected that, during the half
month, although 1 had not degraded
my personality as revolutionary
leader, nor had I violated any of our
leaders teachings while I was in
dangerous surroundings, the party and
the country had both been endangered
Evening star., 1937-04-25

and much unnecessary sacrifice had
been borne by others.
The coup d'etat was due to my in
ability to teach and discipline nv
subordinates, rs well as to prepare
Tor such unexpected CONTINGENCIES. I
feel such deep remose on this account
that I cannot well express 1t In writ
ing.
Fortunately the central government
handled the situation well and nv
comrades in the party, the govern
ment and the army. as well as all
people Of the country, co-operated in
maintaining the authority Of the gov
ernment. They were also very anxious
about by personal safety. As a result.
the trouble subsided, the country re-
turned to stability and . coup d'etat
which had shocked the whole world
passed without causing any great dis
turbance.
As I had prepared to die for the
country, I am conscious of living 4

my sincerity toward you that you have
the courage to acknowledge your
wrongdoing, you are entitled to re-
main as my subordinates. Further
more. since you can be so readily con-
verted. it will certainly be easier for
your subordinates to follow suit.
Have Read My Diary.
Formerly you have been deceived
by reactionaries and believed that
did not treat the people fairly and
squarely and that was not loyal to
our revolutionary ideals But now you
have read my private diary for this
whole year, the public and private
kilograms and documents, numbering
some $4,000 words, that have passed
through my hands during the past two
months, as well as my plans for the
salvation Of the nation, and those
relating to internal administration,
foreign affairs, military finance and
education. numbering some 100000
words, you must now know that there
is not single word which could con-
demn me Of any self-interest or In
sincerity on my part.
In fact, since I took military COM
mand and began to take charge Of
military training, there are two prin-
ciples which I have always empha-
sized to my students and subordinates,
namely, Cd That II I have any
selfish motives or do anything against
the welfare Of the country and the
people, then anybody may consider
me traitor and may shoot me on that
account.
"(2) II my words and deeds are in
the least insincere and I neglect the
principles and revolutionary ideals, my
soldiers may treat me as their enemy
and may also shoot me. From my
diary and the other documents, you
can see whether you can find one word
which is to the detriment Of the revo-
luton. II you can find one such
word here, am still in Sian and you
are at liberty to condemn and kill me.
On my part, am glad that have al
ways done what I have taught other
people to do, namely, to be sincere and
disinterested, and can say in all
confidence that have done nothing
I need to be ashamed Of.

Back in 1909 he was appointed an As
sistant Secretary OF the Treasury and
served in that position until 1911,
when he became secretary to Presi-
dent Taft. Later he was selected by
Taft to head the National Committee.
There was considerable doubt here
today. as the probable successor of
Hilles. Republicans in the Empire
State have been split several ways in
the last year or two. 1t may come
to q struggle between Upstate New
York and New York City for the COM
mitteemanship.
Although it was reported in New
York today that Hilles would attend
the meeting Thursday Of the National
Committees Executive Committee. his
name was no included in the head
quarters list Of those expected.
Asks Successors BE Named.
In his letter OF resignation to Chair
man William S. Murray of the New
York State Republican Committee, Mr..
Hilles said it was not his intention to
assume a responsible part in the next
presidential campaign. He added that
he believed his successor should be
chosen Immediately and given 4
chance for q running start; that
the coming congressional campaign
next year would be of far more Inn
portance than i. usual in mid-term
elections.
If an upstate Republican Is TO be
chosen as Hilles' successor, Frank 8.
Gannett Of Rochester, publisher OF 4
string of newspa pers, may be selected.
Former Supreme Court Justice Will
liam F. Bleakley, Republican candi-
date for Governor last year. and
George R. Fearon, former Republican
floor leader of the State Senate, also
were mentioned As possibilities.
While Hilles did not openly take

except in a campaign year. The meet
Ing Of the Executive Committee Thurs
day is the second which has taken
place this year.
In addition to Chairman Hamilton
those members of the Executive Com
mittee who will be present are:
Ralph E. Williams of Oregon, Mrs.
John E. Hillman of Colorado and Mrs.
Marjorie Scranton of PENNSYLVANIA,
vice chairmen, National Treasurer
c. B. Goodspeed of Chicago, General
Counsel Henry p Fletcher, and Robert
P. Burroughs of New Hampshire, Mrs.
Paul FitzSimmons of Rhode Island,
Daniel E. Pomeroy OF New Jersey,
Walter S. Hallanan of West Virginia.
J. Will Taylor of Tennessee, Harrison
E. Spangler Of Iowa, Mrs. Horace H.
Sayre of Oklahoma, r. B. Creager of
Texas, Ezra R. Whitla of Idaho and
Earl Warren Of California
The resignation of Hilles fore
shadows, it is believed, his virtual re-
tlrement from active participation in
affairs of his party. both State and
national. He has for years been a
trusted member of the national coun-
ellis Of the G. o. P. Always a hard
worker, he had been relied on to raise
a considerable part OF the funds re-
quired for compaigns.
Hilles was 10 years old in June.

the plan for renominating the Mayor,

Twofold Purpose.
This weeks conferences, aimed pri-
marily at building foundations for

Chairman Hamilton with a twofold
purpose:
To obtain reports on local senti-
