Chiang Kai-Shek, former Presi- dent ancl virtual commander in chief of the army, appeared to lie drifting toward the role of Fascist Dictator, favoring a tolerant for- eign policy, especially with respect to Manchuria. China's Government was at a standstill. In political circles it was indicated that leaders were urgently attempting to solve the crisis resulting from the resigna- tion of Wang Ching-Wei, from the executive Yuan, and the Nanklng Cabinet. Without warning, Wang Chins- Ael quit last Saturday. He gave‘ as his reason the maladmlnistration of affairs in north China, coupling with it a withering attack upon Chang Hsiao-Liang, erstwhile Man- churian chleftain now directing af- fairs about Peiplng, supposedly un- der Nankings directich. Chiang Kai-Shek instead oi as- suming the dictatorial role and commanding his one time subor- dinates to remain in their respec- tlve jobs, telegraphed to Nanking that he, too, would be forced to re- sign unless various leaclers rcsum- ed their duties. Chiang Kai-slicks action precip- itated thc gravest crisis within the history of thc stormy Nanklng re- gime. Today China's government is at a. standstill.
