The world today is passing through the most tremendous period of readjustment that mankind has seen.
And the real desire to do away with war is being manifested.
Peace on earth and good will towards men can only be accomplished by the mutual respect and understanding of one nation towards another.
Since I have been this country, this time, through my writing and lecturing1 I have endeavored to create a better understanding between China and the United States by presenting the beautiful, artistic, and the cultural side of the Chinese life.
I am grieved2 that this side of the Chinese life is very little known here.
Although China is a very old country, she is a young republic.
She is striving3 manfully to develop and become up to date.
This will take time.
But the Chinese flapper is not far behind her American sister in her desire to become emancipated.
Rapid transportation has brought China and the United States to each other doorway.
And the greatest stride of all has been the Movietone.
To address4 the millions of people who listen Movietone News, I feel especially privileged and grateful.
我查了一下：【Movietone News】 is a newsreel that ran from 1928 to 1963 in the United States. Under the name 【British Movietone News】, it also ran in the United Kingdom from 1929 to 1979.
