"China
anticipates
tremendous
development
after
the
war
and
the
yardstick:
Insofar
as
this
development
is
concerned
will
be
railway
transportation.
We
have
only
about
9,000
miles
of
railway
in
China
at
the
present
time
and
in

making
a
complete

of
the

National
i

and
its

I
system.
China
will
expand
a
ve.ry
great
deal
as
soon
as
conditions
allow
but
we
fully
realize
that
the
main
cog
in
the
machinery
of
our
sound
expansion
will
b?
railway
transportation.
We
have
remendous
natural
resources
of
minerals
that
we
ourselves
will
need
and
also
other
world
countries
'will
need.
We
must
get
them
to

We
have
plenty
of
manpower
but
our
t.
asportation
facilities
have
been
very
limlttd
so
far
and
we
realize
that
one
of
our
first
great
problems
will
be
more
railroads.
"I
have
been
on
this
continent
for
more
than
two
years
on

and
