little knowledge of the problems of

that anything but betrayal for the

his troops to Canton. The Kuomin-
tang, of course, sharply opposed all
these plans. 1t issued an appeal to
the Chinese people declaring that all
these are imperialist plans and that
the people must stand up against
them. The Canton troops continued
to fight against the troops of the gov
ernor Of Yunnan, Tang She Liau, and
the latter have suffered a defeat.
The era of federalism and separat-
ism reached its highest point in China
in the year 1922, when the Canton
government was overthrown Now,
after the death of Sun Vat Sen, the
governors and generals, the support
ers Of the Federative Republic, are
once again endeavoring and are using
all their forces to carry out this plan.
But this is only the last flicker be-
fore death. They will in no way sue
coed. The Chinese people know these
independent governments; they know
how they are enslaved, how they are
doubly and trebly exploited by the
military rulers, how the generals pro-
coed with the crulest means against
striking workers. who wish to save
themselves from death by starvation
They now know that behind these

ENoUR Negro members OF the house
4 of representatives in Springfield
are the key to the passage of the in
junction Limitation bill favored by the
Illinois labor movement
Labor, that is official labor-the
Olanders, Walkers and Wises and that
ilh-is worried and much attention is
being lavished on these three Negro
representatives. BY their votes they
can either pass or defeat the bill. Not
that this matters great deal since
the bill Itself has been operated on
until no effective organs are left in It.
But Illinois fakerdom wants something
to show to the rather restless rank
and file that is shifting suspiciously at
the lack of benefit received so far
from the alliance with the Small re-
publican forces.
TT seems that the Negro legislators

Grafton lobbyists with something re-
sembling cool disdain.

to have said, Ifs there in this bill to

number Of pertinent and embarrass-
ing questions concerning discrimina-

unions were asked. The answers
were unsatisfactory.

and in 1924 gathered round the flag of
WI Pei Flu, first, because they feared
his power and secondly because revo-
lutionary Instructions were again to
be expected. The English now issued
another catch word: they said China
must have a mercantile" govern
ment. On their instigation their chief
tool, the fascist leader Chen Linn PAX,
undertook in October, 1924 an attack
upon the Canton government This
failed, with the result that the plan
for the mercantile" government was
thwarted right at the commencement.
After the defeat of WI Pei Flu and
the illness of Sun Vat Sen, the move
ment for the Federative Republic be-
gan to revive again. 1t was not only
supported by the governors, but even
by WI Pei Flu. The governors of
Fukien and Hupe (the chief support
ers of WI Pei Fu) have also declared
their provinces to be independent.
When Tuan She Sui convened the
military conference, the so-called re-
organization conference, in February
of this year in Picking, the represen-
tatives Of the governors of the South
West provinces attempted to force
thru various demands. First they
wished to establish in Picking a party
for the Federative Republic. This
however failed, as it was very sharply

ENGLISH Imperialism is only in a
position to rule the Indian empire
owing to Separation in India and only
with the help of the Indian princes
and rajahs. That which it has already
succeeded in achieving in India, 1t
now wishes to carry out in China. In
China, which has already for a long
time been united country which no
longer knows either kings or princes,
the English imperialists wish to bring
about Separation and feudalism and
in this they are making use of the
catch word: "Federative Republic"
Chen Shut Ming, who already in the
year 1919 was the first to advocate
federative republic, in 1922, at the
instigation of the English, destroyed
the revolutionary Canton government,

land at that time wanted to kill two
birds with one stone: first to sup
press the revolutionary movement,
that is the Kuomintang, and secondly
to bring the various governors into
the service Of her interests.
The catch word, "Federaitve Re-
public" at first promised the English
great success, for the Chinese people
believed that only under this slogan
could China again become a united
state. AS at that time the relations

TT happens thus that the members Of
4 the Chicago Typographical Union
are expected to write to the three
Negro legislators and tell them that
the Typographical Union has not and
does not discriminate against Negroes.
Members Of other unions are expected
to do the same thing.
Upon the attitude of the Negro leg

passing judgment at this time except
to say that they should vote for the

of power, especially in South West
China, were subject to great varia-
tions-for the Southwest provinces
were being continually attacked by
generals and governors from the
North, and the revolutionary move
ment often threatened to assume the
most acute forms-many governors
took advantage of this genuine belief
of the people and, one after another,
declared their provinces to be indie
pendent of the Canton or Picking gov
ernments. They said that every prov
ince must have a constitution and a
supreme government. Accordingly,
many governors had themselves
elected again as supreme rulers, for
example, the governor of Human.
DARTLY as result of experience
because many provinces had
already been independent for long
time) and partly as a result of the
enlightenment work on the part of the
Communists and the Kuomintang, the
Chinese people finally arrived at the
conviction that the MONUMENT for the
Federative Republic Only served the
purposes of imperiahsts and militar-
lists. They sharply opposed the move
