Note 7 — Chapter IX · SUN YAT-SEN AND CHIANG K'AI-SHEK
Reading edition
d'Elia, Paschal M., S. J., The Triple Demism of Sun Yat-sen, Wuch'ang, 1931, p. 36-49, gives an exhaustive analysis of possible translations. Stylistically, the term should be given San Min Chu I as a classical title; san-min chu-i as a noun; and san-min-chu-i when used as an adjective. The first form alone is followed because of its wide currency.
