卷九一四、致The Post-Standard（syracuse）書

　　（三月四日）

　　To the Editor ofThe Post-Standard:

　　I feel myself highly honored to read the favorable comments you have given to my letter toThe New Republic. I agree with your remark that "a Japanese attempt to assume charge of China will result in a sea of trouble, and we hope Japan has statesmen who can see it". I strongly believe that any attempt to establish a Japanese directorship in China is no more and no less than sowing the seeds of disturbance and bloodshed in China for the countless years to come. Whosoever advocates that policy shall live to see that great catastrophe befall China and mankind. Have we not seen anti-Japanese sentiments already prevailing in China?

　　I thank you for your sympathetic attitude toward my country.

　　Ithaca, March 3

　　主筆先生：

　　餘日前投書《新共和國週報》，此書得到足下之好評，余實深感榮幸。對足下之所言，餘深表贊同：「日本企圖控制中國，其結局必定是引火燒身，我們希望日本能有有識之政治家看到這一點。」餘堅信，任何想要在中國搞日本人統治之企圖，無異於在中國播下騷亂和流血的種子，未來的一段歲月中國將雞犬不寧。不管是誰，他若倡導此種政策，定會看到中國和人類將遭受一場浩劫。君不見反日的仇恨已燃遍了神州大地麼？

　　足下對吾國取同情之態度，餘深表謝意。

　　綺色佳，3月3日

　　此餘致The Post-Standard（《標準郵報》）書，即致The Outlook（《外觀報》）書之大意也。本城晚報The Ithaca Journal（《綺色佳晚報》）亦轉載吾書。吾甚欲人之載之，非以沽名，欲人之知吾所持主義也。
