He said:
War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression is a critical juncture for the survival of the Chinese nation. The whole country should be rich, make great efforts, unite as one, and go to the national disaster together. But this is not the case now. Now it is the "inferior people" who contribute, the "middle people" who pay, and the "superior people" who neither pay nor contribute, hoard and make a fortune.
There is also a kind of "gentleman", who relies on power and uses state economic secrets to engage in foreign exchange speculation and make a fortune. This kind of "master" is inferior to pigs and dogs, that is, people like Kong Xiangxi and Song Ziwen ... Kong Xiangxi and Song Ziwen must be removed from their posts, and their ill-gotten gains should be used as anti-Japanese war funds.
Ma Yinchu published articles and speeches one after another, exposing the corruption of the Kuomintang and denouncing Kong Song's shamelessness, which made the Kuomintang government very headache and was hated by many powerful people.

Do you know that he is cursing Premier Kong Xiangxi outside? He cursed all nonsense! He cursed Kong Xiangxi just as he cursed me. " Finally, Chiang Kai-shek said, "Come with him next Thursday, and I want to talk to him face to face. He is an elder and a fellow countryman, and always puts the overall situation first! "
The headmaster was afraid of hitting the snag and asked his nephew to convey Chiang Kai-shek's meaning to Ma Yinchu. Hearing this, Ma Yinchu flew into a rage and said, "Tell me to see him, but I won't go! Let the gendarmerie come and accompany me! "
He added, "It is unnecessary for civilians not to visit officers! It's no use arguing when you meet! Besides, I taught him a lesson before. He is my student. Students should come to see the teacher. How does the teacher visit the students? If he has something to say, tell him to come and see me! "
Chiang Kai-shek was very angry when he learned that there was nothing he could do, so he had to say to the headmaster, "I want to talk to him about economic problems. Go back and tell him that he can come to me whenever he is free. " But Ma Yinchu always ignored it. In order to win over Ma Yinchu, Kong Xiangxi wanted to ask him to be the finance minister, but he also sternly refused.
