Herein the criticisms of "Karblem Bundo" in the March Progressive are refuted by Professor "E. Lin Berchan," J. D. Black, and Wassily Leontief; Professor A. H. Hansen bestrides the fence; and Mr. Spencer Pollard, supporting the truth of the charges, hands "Mr. Bunde" a round of ammunition gratis in the noble sentences: "My main criticism is the tacit assumption of the article that the chief interest of the Economics Department is in teaching students. We do pay a little attention to students, as little as possible generally, and if we pay more than that, the University soon ceases...

With President Lin in Chungking are Finance Minister Dr. H. H. Kung and famed Dr. Sun Fo, a son of the Father of the Chinese Republic. Dr. Sun Fo is the liaison man between the Chinese Government and the Soviet Government.

Most of this landed at British Hong Kong...
