PRESIDENT YUAN SOUNDS WARNING Impressive Ple;-fl;r United Action Agninst Foreign Aggression Causes Much Discussion. i | GRAFTING OFFICIALS scom] (Correspondence of the Assoclated Press) PFEKING, July 31.—rresident Yuan Shi-Kal uttered at a recent cabinet meeting an impressive plea for anited action in China, which made a deep lmpression upon Chinese officials. Its publication in English today caused much discussion among for- eigners. The Peking TJazette charac terizes the address as ‘‘couched in the usual language of over-emphasis, ' but makes no attempt to discount the serfousness of the dishonesty and in- efficiency of Chinese officials which the president denounced as a great menace to the republic at a time when outside pressure is threatening. “Our suserainty in southern Manchuria has gradually gone into the hands of for- elgners,” sald the president ‘‘The for- elgn aggressor has come tu thelr doors, but our people are still dallying in the midst of & calamity. As I am advanced in age and have received tho sacred and welghty trust from the Tsing dynasty, how can I let the country go to ruin wien I am assuming the duties of chief executive of the republic? Ry all means, 1 must suve the country. To avert the impending disaster is the sacred duty which lles upon the shoulders of every one of us." President Yuan Shi-Kai is less than years old and in the best of health, con- | sequently his allusion to his old age 1s | inrgely figurative. | Heavenly Duty of Strens. “Sorrow comes Into my heart whenever I review our present situation,” were the | opening words of the president's appeal to the cabinet. “It seems to me that the general poiley of the nations of the world is to conquer u weak country, to Invade | the country which has forfeited the con- | fidence of the other mations, o force | order upon the country which is In a state of chaos, and to take over by force the country which is on the verge of ruin. In other words, as many foreigners | claim, 1t is the heavenly duty for the ! strong and civilized nation to annex and control a nation which is barbarous or semi-civilized. *“Our country does not manifcst any sign of instabllity, chaos, or the lack of con- fidence of other nations and it is most unlikely that any nation, for the present, will invade or insult our ocountry. But when we think of the neglect of discipline | by our soldiers, the irregularities in ad-| ministrative affairs, the calamities of floods and drought throughout the prov- inces, the selfishness of some officlals and the lack of public spirit among the people, wa cannot help realising the fact that we are enjoying ourselves while re- posing on a bed of straw with a kindling fire beneath it. How many of us know the strength of our nation, the tendencles ot_our people and the general conditions of“the world? What portion of our country has been free from the disturb- ance and molestation of the bandit and outlaws, and what percentage of the of- ficlals are enthusiastic and strictly carry- ng out their duty? Local Offtcialy Corrupt. After deploring what he regarded as the many shortcomings of China, the preat- dont continued: “Some persons say that on account of | ¥ our vast country and population, the de- struction of our country by an alien pee- ple s & matter of impossibllity. Look at Korea, the area of which is not much smaller than Japan. Some Japanese ' papers have stated of late that althoush China hes’ changed the monarchy into a republican form of govermment, its In- ternal atfairs are just as deplorable now as i, the late dynasty and that bribery and gambling among officials still pre- vails, “During the Chino-Japanese war and the boxer trouble our people were greatly stirved up and determined to ‘lie onl straws and taste bitterness' to prepare ihemselves for future emergencies. But when the anxious time was once passed ' they forgot everything, It Is worth while to nmote that when the imperial govern- ment was gone, it was the dynasty that pussed away and not the coustry. The new method of destroying & country nowadays is not only to overthrow the government, but also to destroy the lan- guage of the people and the very race “We cannot be ignorant of the history of Poland. During the crisis of the re- cent Cnino-Japanese negotiations it was o good sign that our people wore greatly swakened by the threatened calamity. Should they again quickly forget the in- Glgnity the country received the greater calamity of the country s bound to President Yuan shi Kal concluded his appeal with this” warning: “Now the situation of our coumtry comparable to a small boat on a wild sca. It 15 not the ime for us to pursie our pleasures and let things drift into the course of destruction. Above all do not forgot the nationsl disgrace of May 7.
