The leaders are paying a lot of attention to it. Everything depends on our doing sure and steady work. Even if there are great difficulties in our work, ideologically we should be confident of early results. Following the conclusion of comrades Ho Zong-Yu's speech, there were academic exchanges. Professor Zhou Ying-Qi of the Shanghai Aquatic Products College and Professor Zhang Ming of the Shanghai Physical Education College represented the Shanghai Institutes of Higher Learning Joint Research Group in giving reports on "The Optics Phenomenon of the Human Psychic Function" and "Training to Induce Psychic Functions in ‘Adults (college students)." Comrade Chen Bi~Tong repre- sented the Shanghai team for using Qigong to prevent and cure nearsightedness and gave a report on "The Effectiveness of Using Qigong to Prevent and Cure Near- sightedness." Finally, Comrade Shu Wen, advisor to the Shanghai Higher Education Bureau, gave an address. He said that after hearing the previous reports, he was full of exceitement. He said he hopes that we will be able to persevere in this kind of research work, and that we will keep on having success. He said that there will always be differences of opinions on each new thing when it first comes out. There is nothing strange about this. We must believe in the reality of its objective existence, but we must also allow others to express their doubts until we have clarified just exactly what it is. These doubts may be used as an in- centive for our work. Of course we are opposed to those péople who come down with a big stick, put labels on us, or are subjective and preemptory. He pointed out that we should not play down our own personal achievements, but neither should we be too overboard in our ideas on things that have not yet been verified. This is the only way to guarantee the smooth progress of our research efforts. After the meeting, a video of research on the human psychic functions was shown at the audiovisual classroom. More than 400 attenders excitedly watched the video on Chinese and foreign research. XINJIANG - The snow has melted and the spring returns.
