wish the same to you" or the like
The speech OF the ambassador of the
Union of Soviet SociAlist Republics
cannot fail to meet with deep re-
Spouse from the popular masses both
in the Soviet Union and China.
Source Of Soviet lnHuAqee.
Nor will Messieurs, the impeHialists
find It easy to pass over in Silence
or conceal this speech, which is sNch
a fitting retort to the cry raised IN
the imperialistic press about Soviet
propaganda as being at the root OF
revolutionary trouble in China.
Indeed, said the ambassador of
the U. S. S. r., the Soviet Republic
has influence in China. This influence,
however, consists in that our policy
towards the Chinese people is such as
our deeds correspond to our words.
"And II our fault is our good policy, /
take pride in confessing to our being
guilty" KaEakhan had declared. Our
enemies, RadeS goes on to say, will
naturally say that our influence is
but the result of ihstigation, propa-
ganda, promises.
But, of course, they themselves are
the last to believe it, Have they not
written scores and scores of books
to show how diffidently the oriental
people look upon the westerners? And
in that they we're right; all nations
suffering from exploitation, oppres-
sion and humiliation, acquires a psy-
chology of distrust against aliens, for
no good comes to them from such
aliens. The modern history Of China
has been written with blood, bayonet
and cudgel. and If the Chinese peo-
pie did not feel that our good words
are followed by our good deeds and
equal treatment they, naturally, would
not believe us. However they do be-
lieve us, for they see that we are
whole-heartedly and sincerely helping
the Chinese people in its aspirations
for national freedom.
Chinese Must Drive Out Imperialism.
And, again, II only our policy to-
wards China we're a selfish and inn
perialistic one. 1t would be easy for
representatives of the imperialists to
find a common language with us and
propose repartition of booty. But
what exactly makes it so difhcult for
the imperialists is the fact that we
are not after anything for ourselves
in China and, therefore, cannot be
bribed.
| '1n this lies the reason of all the in
furiated attacks and all the threats
against us. Threats which we are not
in the least afraid of, trusting as we
do to the inevitable drift of the great
river Of history.
Passing from defense to attack, "
writes the author of the Izvestia ar
ticle, 'Karakhan fittingly rated the hy-
pocritcal statements and advices of
representatives of capitalistic powers
to long-suffering China fighting for
her rights, first set your house in
order, and then we will talk over our
relations with YOU How, indeed,
can the Chinese set their house in
order when they are not masters in
their own house, where foreigners do
what they will? Just as any organism
gets rid of an alien body which i'm
pedes its growth, so will the great
Chinese people free itself Of what
hampers its life.
Capitalism Seeks Cheap Chinese
Labor.
"Tho the telegraph gives us no in
dication as to how Karakhan's speech
was received by the esteemed repre-
sentatives OF the diplomatic corps,
it is not difficult to imagine the hue
and cry that will be raised anew by
the imperialistic press about our pro
paganda.' But, may we say with the
French author, 'tu LAS voulu, Georges
Dandinl' The imperialists should not
have forced the Soviet representative
to speak, for a Soviet representative
