Aug. 7, et seq.) have interlarded their pleadings in court with passionate, often random denunciation of "the traitorous Mitsui!" As a result no successor to Dr. Dan, no Mitsui candidate for assassination, has been appointed. His work is now done by a "Council of Three" Mitsui minions (who hate, fear and dodge photographers) : domineering, onetime newspaperman Seihin Ikeda; softspoken, old-fogyish Nagabumi Ariga; diplomatic, democratic Kikusaburo Fukui.

But even if the chief executive or his successor should desire to use this technicality as a means of throttling the organs of public opinion, it is absolutely inconceivable that a supreme court would impute legality to an act directly contrary to the first amendment of the Constitution...
Promptly Chinese bonds tobogganed and alarm grew so general that troops had to be thrown around the home of Generalissimo & Mrs. Chiang and the entire government quarter of Nanking. As Dr. Soong's successor Generalissimo Chiang picked the famed 75th lineal descendant of China's great sage Confucius, plump and placid Dr. H, H.
