MUKDEN MANCHURIA, Sept. 90
-"While Europeans and America
are critising the Chinese drama, the
theater is afire, and nobody is aware
of the danger. Extra territorial and
customs questions are engaging
their attention. Meantime bolshevism
is stealthily penetrating China. De-
spite the fact that innumerable
small blazes of Soviet incendiarism
are rising up, foreigners seemingly
are not yet awake to the menace of
worldwide conflagration."
The foregoing was the reply today
Of Chang Tsolin, the Manchurian
war lord, to my request for an ex-
preston Of his views on the coming
Peking conference between China
and the great powers.
Picturesque Setting
The general, extremely picturesque
and widely heralded as China's man
on horseback" received me in the
salon of his private palace. The
diminutive ex-bandit. now the war
chief of Manchuria, was dressed
simply, in Chinese fashion, and was
seated in a huge American over
stuffed chair placed between two
enormous stuffed tigers.
At the outset, his eyes were half
closed and his face was inscrutable
but, as he talked, an expression of
warmth came over his features,
flashes Of humor, of contempt,
of philosophy alternated on a
countenance that bore the imprint
of mentality as keen as steel.
Plunging into the question of the
coming tariff conference and into the
subject Of earlier student riots in
China, the war lord declared:
THE failure of the powers to car
ry out the Washington agreement
was blunder. While l realize that
the students method of seeking a
remedy for the existing situation is
