Ivan Sornberger

Ivan Sornberger of New York died in Wrangell at 2 A. M. We'd nesday.
 MT. Sornberger is a son of Wes- ley Sornberger, a well known local citizen. In company with his wife he arrived in Wrangell several months ago with the intention of spending the winter here and re- turning to New York state in April. He was in very poor health. For a time he seemed to improve a little, but during the past two weeks his condition has been grow ing worse. His wife and his father were at his bedside when the end came.
 Ivan Sornberger was born in Af- ton, New York, September IA, 1894. He grew to manhood in New York. Within a month after war was declared he had enlisted in the Navy and remained in the service of Uncle Sam until the spring of 1921. During the war he made nu- merous voyages across the Atlantic on a transport. His death was due to disabilities received during his time in service.
 On January IS, 1922, he was married in Washington, D. c. to Miss Mary Elizabeth Arlington of that city.
 The funeral was conducted in the Catholic church Thursday morning by the Rev. Father Monroe. The Ameriacn Legion attended the fu- neral in a body and the church was packed with friends and neighbors.
 MT. Sornberger is survived by his wife, his father, and his mother and sister, the two latter being res- idents of Windsor, New York.
 MT. Sornberger was young man of many fine traits. He made game fight to live and endured his sufferings uncomplainingly. He had always led an active life, and what seemed to trouble his mind more than his affliction was his in- ability to work, but with it all he remained surprisingly cheerful to the last.
 The bereayed relatives have the sympathy of the peo- pie of this community.

eign courts which secure a privileged
position to the foreign capitalists.
The majority of American capitalists
think just as the English capitalists
and are of the opinion that the holy
work of the capitalists cannot be UNI
der the jurisdiction of court of
"Chinese barbarians." The Americans
however, are less keen upon the out
ward form of foreign prestige in
China and are ready to grant a num-
Der of concessions regarding small
and minor questions which do not
affect the American money bags, but
which, to some extent, pacify Chinese
public opinion. The Americans are
making a great fuss over the fact
that they are studying the question
of extra-territorial rights, in order to
show the Chinese the prospects Of a
way out of the present situation: "In-
troduce proper laws and then We will
gladly meet your demands for the
abolition of capitalist privileges in
China"
AS a matter of fact, however, the
Americans are endeavoring to get
two trumps into their hands; the first
trump will consist in allowing the
Chinese customs duties to be raised.
This question is exceedingly import
ant for the Chinese bourgeoisie and
for the Chinese government. For the
Chinese bourgeoisie, because the pre-
sent low and uniform tariff has per-
mitted the foreign bourgeoisie to over
flood China with it's goods. The rails
ing of the customs duties, however,
will render it possible for the Chin
csc bourgeoisie to build up it's own
industry. This, however, is not dan
gerous for America. By means of
free competition America will be able
to beat the capitalists of other coun-
tries. And as regards the growth Of
Chinese industry, the American bour-
geoisie, which has sufficient capital
fO sport at it's disposal, is begin
ming TO set up, at rapid rate, indus
trial undertakings under the protec-
ton of the new Chinese customs
duties.
The second American trump is the
granting of loans to China. The pres
ent American ambassador in Pekin,

Eastern department in the American

an, after certain hesitations, will play
the role Of that power which would
enable the Chinese bourgeoisie to or
ganize powerful state, that Japan
will not play the role of the champion
Of the dividing up of China, but of
the policy of cooperation with the
Chinese bourgeoisie.
The economic arguments of the
Times" will not hold water. China
is still less suited for the settlement
of Japanese than Korea and Man
churia, as it is a very thickly populat-
ed country. Japanese emigration is
tending towards the islands of the
Pacific Ocean and not to China. 1t
is true Japan needs China as a mar
ket for her manufactures Should Jap
an however, take part in the fight
against China, she win only render
more difficult her situation in this
country, owing to the lack of any
possibility of a new division Of China

operation with the. Chinese bour-
geoisie, as she is best acquainted with
the Chinese market and Chinese hab-
its, and can in many respects pro-
mote the industrial organization of
China.
There is no doubt that the Japan
csc government has not yet decided
upon sensible policy towards China.
1t has not yet quite realized that the
time of the 81 demands is already
past, it is still under the influence
of those Japanese clidues which are
, Immediately interested in the plum
de4ing Of China. The further develop
ment will enlighten the Japanese
bourgeoisie as to the growing strength
of the Chinese revolution and will
compel it to abandon it's present pol
icy. The Japanese franchise reform,
which is bringing wide circles of the
commercial bourgeoisie into contact
with state power, will also contribute
to this end. At present Japanese pol
icy is vacillating, but the English will
hardly succeed in completely harness
ing Japan to their chariot.
With regard to the police of Amer
lea, it would of course, be great
mistake to believe that the Americans

| foreign ministry, shortly before his
appointment, published in the April
number of the American periodical
Foreign Affairs" an article on the
problems of foreign capital in China.
In this article he develops the idea
Of the creation Of an international
bankers consortium which would pro-
vide China with the necessary funds
for the purpose of constructing rail-
ways and for other economic under
takings. Such a consortium, declares
MacMurray,. would free China from
the danger Of separate actions on the
part of the various capitalist groups,
who combine the efforts to build rail-
ways in China with the effort to d.
vide up China. AS at present, how
ever, there is no power apart from
the United States which is capable
of granting big loans to China, the
international consortium would only
constitute an indication of the growth
of American property in. China.
Gas regards the abolition of the
privileges of the foreigners, the OPP
position of the foreigners against this
demand is based on the fact that the
Pekin government is weak and that
the anarchy which prevails in China
renders the immediate abolition of
these privileges impossible. 1t must
not be assumed that they will be
soon abolished. But the simple fact
such reform opens up to China the
of the discussion of the possibility of
prospect of attaining speedy indie
pendence from foreign control.*"
Thus wrote the Journal of Com
merce" an influential New York fnan-
cial paper, on the 3rd of July.
American diplomacy is fighting for
this program in the negotiations
which it is conducting with English
and Japanese diplomacy. For the time
being all are agreed that the central
problem for them consists in the set
ting up Of a Chinese government
which will be capable of fighting
the growing national movement.
In the article from the Times" of
the 9Th Of July, which we have al
ready quoted, the way is indicated
which the great powers will in all
probability follow. This article states
that Japan does not think of the pos
sibility of setting up strong Chinese

government by means Of a national
conference.
"Who is to take part in this confer
ence? The military governors who
have brot China into its present sit
uation- Many of them are not even
endeavoring to consolidate their own
power. They only collect funds with
which they then settle in the treaty
ports. The Pekin politicians on the
other hand only represent themselves
and their wishes. They would very
willingly sell themselves as we'll as
China. The students understand
neither the outer world nor China
with her 400 million peasants. The
officials, bankers, business people
would give expression to patriotic
views, but which they cannot real
ize+)."
Where then is the point Of support
to be found? Now such a point of
support exists:
"Chang Tso Lin possesses certain
qualities which win him respect. He
governs Manchuria well, he is at pres
emit the strongest military governor
of China. Should he succeed in arriv-
ing at an agreement with WI Pei Flu,
then he could break the influence Of
Feng Yu Hsiang and rule over North
ern and Central China. AS an open
problem there would then remain the
red government in Canton. 1t is true,
one cannot solve all the Chinese prob
lens at once. Should Chinese gov
eminent arise, possessing authority
in Northern and Central China, this
would mean great step towards the
stabalizing of Chinas)."
This program is put forward by the
"Times" as the program Of Japan.
But in reality it is the program of
England, and forces are already to be
seen which are endeavoring to make
it also the program OF America.
The plan of the imperialists there
fore, consists in opposing the Chin
ese revolutionary movement with a
military government which is to be
supported by the upper section of the
Chinese bourgeoisie, which has been
bought with loans and concessions,
and whcih would be capable Of sup
pressing the revolutionary movement,
