By G. VoITINsKY Moscow.

The recent events in China only
l constitute the elimination Of those
proceedings which have taken place
during the last eighteen months. Part
Of these proceedings was the ousting
Of Japanese influence by America and
England, the strengthening of English
and American capital and it's pressure
upon North and Central China, re.
sulting in the consolidation and
strengthening of the reactionary mill
tarist clique in the north, the Tchili
party.
At the same time there is another
process going on, that of the growth,
the extension and deepening of the ma
tional revolutionary movement, which
is seeking new way to conduct a
real fight against the yoke of foreign
imperialism. The most important
events of the first process were: the
victory of Wu-Pei-Fu over Tchan-Tzo-
Lin and Sun-Yat-Sen in the middle of
1922, the bloody suppression of the
railway strike, the crushing of the in
dependent army of the Sytchuan
province in 1923, the election of
Tsao-Kun as president, the strength

out the whole of Central China.

Imperialism is characterized by such
historical facts as the agreement with

This marked the beginning OF a
split. The mercantile interests form
erly connected with this party are
turning more and more from Sun-Yat-
Sen and are becoming his open OPP
ponents. The necessity of maintain
ing a military territorial basis in
South China, which unavoidably in
wolves the taxation of big commercial
capital, is sharpening the struggle Of
the big merchants of the South
against Sun-Yat-Sen.
In this struggle for their pocket in.
terests the commercial bourgeoisie
find themselves allied with English
capital, which from Hong Kong is
bringing immediate pressure to bear
upon Sun-Yat-Sen. The foreign CAPT
talists are supplying the bourgeoisie
of Canton with weapons and money.
Volunteer fascist troops are being
openly organized for the struggle
against Sun-Yat-Sen and his govern
ment.
Such an attitude on the part of the
bourgeoisie of Canton is impelling
Sun-Yat-Sen to still more close ALI

petty bourgeoisie of Canton, and with
the millions of peasants of the South

XPLOITATION OF
KID IMMIGRANTS
BRINGS SUICIDES
Five Destroy Selves in
Canada in Year
BY SYDNEY WARREN.
(By the Federated Press.)

VANCOUVER, B. c., Sept 2S.-Dur
ing the past year there we're five cases
Of suicide among child immigrants in
Canada Children brought from Eng
land under the auspices of charitable
organizations have become stranded
and are forced to accept employment
under the most degrading conditions
and sometimes treated in such a bru-
tai manner that suicide is taken as the
only means of escape. These facts
are before the Vancouver Trades
Council following an investigation of
the conditions of child immigrants to
Canada made by the Child Welfare
League of this city.
The report revealed that children as
young as five years have been sent out
to Canada while tots ranging from
Iseven to ten years are quite common.
Many of these children are brought
out ostensibly for adoption but this
has been proved ruse to obtain
cheap labor Child immigrants are TAX
en- to farms and sweat shop industries
where they are given low wage and
compelled to pay back their passage
money which keeps them in the grip
of their exploiters for years. The
mani er of exploitation is almost iden-
teal with that employed by the South
Australian governments boy immigra-
ton scheme, which the new Labor
government of that state straightway
abolished.
Brutally Treated.
Accounts of the treatment of child
immigrants on the farms and factories
of this country would furnish Charles
Dickens, were he alive, with ample
material for stories. In one instance
young farm lad was compelled to
work such long hours and received
such brutal treatment from his mas
ter that he hid from the farmhouse in
the middle of the winter and when
found was frozen to death. On an
other prairiei farm a youth received
such frightful heatings from his en-
ployer that he committed suicide n
escape them.
In Vancouver case was cited
where an 11-year-old girl was doing
the homework for a family in the
fashionable part of the city and was
not allowed tc attend school Other
immigrant children were employed in
cheap restaurants and stores on the
prairies where they were used not
only to force down wages but to keep
adults out of employment.
The Vancouver Trades Council has
decided to appoint committee to tell
Margaret Bondfield, under-secretary of
labor in the British Labor government
of the plight of child immigrants in
Canada.

The Imperialist Attack Upon China

thruout the whole public opinion Of
China, under the pressure of which
the Picking government was compelled
to bring about the agreement with the
Soviet government.
We saw already in February this
year at the reorganization congress
of the Comindan Party (the national
revolutionary party which is led by
Sun-Yat-Sen) a tenacious fight be-
tween the right and left wing.
The representatives Of the right
wing, comprising in the main the
mercantile interests, fought against
the reorganization of the party: they
desired that it should remain in it's
present loose and divided condition in
order that they should be able to re-
tain it in their hands as an instru.
ment for the protection Of their inter-
ests against the industrial North and
Central China, as well as against the
worker and peasant masses in South
China.
The left wing of the party, at the
head Of which our Communist com
rades stand, is striving to convert the
party into real national-revolution.
airy party, which shall rely for main
support upon the masses Of workers
and peasants.
1t is one of the greatest historical
merits of Sun-Yat-Sen, the leader and
creator of the Comindan party, that
at this critical moment he ranged him.
self on the side of the left wing and
led the party with firm hand along
the road of real struggle for the in
terests Of the working and peasant
masses and for the interest of the

these declarations were backed up by

America and England, led by Mac

tional revolutionary movement: Am
erica mainly in Central Asia and Eng
land in Southern China
The united armed action of world
imperialism against China is only the
beginning of a long and tenacious
struggle between the former and the
uprising East. In this struggle the
suppressed peoples Of the East have
only one friend and ally; the Union
Of Soviet Republics.
1t is difficult to say at present what
form the struggle in South China will
assume, and fhether Sun-Yat-Sen will
succeed in defending Canton against
the combined imperialists. In any
event one can confidently say that
the approaching struggle will weld to
gether all national revolutionary ele.
ments for the defence Of the revolu.
tionary South, which is under the
leadership of Sun-Yat-Sen and the
Gomindan party. This combined at
tack of the imperialists will prove a
powerful stimulus, which will stir up
