                              February 25, 1942
 
My dear Mr. President,
 
                General Chiang Kai-shek has sent me a
 
message from Kunming which he asked me to deliver to you in
 
person, and which I am enclosing herewith. As you have been
 
so generous to me in giving me your time in the past, I for-
 
bear to impose myself further on you unless you desire to
 
discuss the message with me.
 
                The Canadian Government is making ar-
 
rangements for me to make a short visit to Canada, leaving
 
tomorrow afternoon at 3 p.m. and returning in about three
 
days. If necessary, however, I would of course postpone my
 
departure.
 
                With high regard, I am,
 
                         Yours sincerely,
 
 
                             T. V. Soong
 
The President
The White House
