In the determination of our people to see our territory protected and our honor and our sense of justice vindicated lies our confidence in a final victory. The Chinese people see no price as too high to pay to hasten an end of brute force now rampant in the world. They are Willing to pay more than their share in crushing trends toward international anarchy. I believe, and the Chinese people believe, that only by restoring respect for international engagements will the nations of the world find lasting peace and the civilization which mankind has managed to create through the centuries find a permanent and stable security. * Our only aspiration Is to consolidate the national unity which we b??a achieved and to be allowed to undertake, without molestation*, the tremendous tasks of national reconstruction which face us.
