America haa long been regarded our best and staunchest friend, the first to recognize the Republic after the overthrow of *the Manchus in 1911. But in the participation in the New Consortium to advance this new loan that was just reported concluded, to the Peking Government, it is not only a great disappointment to the people of China, but also a confliction to her recognization of the establishment of the Republic Looking back into the past, we find that the éefeat of the second revolutionary movement in 1913, when all the people rove against Y Shi-kai and hir intolerable administration, was due to @ loan from the United States negotiated under the pretense of recon- struction. On the other hand, we find in 1916, the refural of another by the United States had been the cause of failure of his dream of an Empire, This proves that in so far as the internal peace and future prosperity of China i concerned, the attitude of the United States i closely involved. Consider for a moment that your President were to arrange for @ loan or Yo enter into an agreement without the mnction of Con- gress, would It not arouse the indignation of the people and public opinion directed against the action? We look upon this New Loan in the same light, with added seriousness because an unconstitu- Uonal Government im responsible. In view of this grave situation, we feel it our @uty as people of the Republic of China, to refuse recognition of all secret agreements and loans that the present Government may have entered or will enter into, and at the same time earnestly appeal to the people of the United States that until this long-delayed Union of the North and South is a realization, with a Constitytional Government and & National Assembly, to influence the New Consortium to withdraw negotiations for the New Loan and prove again the same staunch friend of China, —Advertisement.
