Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek to President Roosevelt 11
I am most grateful to you for receiving Dr. W. W. Yen last month. As you no doubt understand the great difficulties of our financial situation, I once more venture to express the hope that your Government will before long render to China some further financial assistance. Naturally, I cannot help hoping that it may be possible for the new financial help from the United States to include a cash loan which may enable us to strengthen our national currency. But I assure you, whatever you can do to help us, will be forever remembered by the Chinese Nation.
