Abstract
First of all, I want to express the appreciation of the Chinese Community to the New York World’s Fair authorities for their gracious act of designating this day as “China Day” at the Fair. This act is all the more generous because China, as you all know, withdrew last year from her original plans of participating in the national exhibits at the Fair. By this kind invitation today, the Fair authorities have shown us that they have forgiven China’s desertion in a worthy cause,—a desertion which was forced upon her by the necessities of a protracted war of aggression on her own soil.
