Speech:
I, as a membeer of the Nationalist group, I am one influenced by the Western ideas of Sun Yixian. In order to become a better nation, we must unite. Our people desire a constitutional government with civil liberties guaranteed by a bill of rights. We also desire China to become industrialized so that it could defend itself conomically against imperialist powers. We trust China could protect irself against foreign control only of it became a modern nation. If we permit the Communist to take over they shall overpower us.
Chiang Kai-shek
