Fearful for Daughters
of Oil in the Orient

rialist armies in the orient fighting
the Chinese revolution. Now as
ever they have the support and
sympathy of the agents in the Ear
East" of the so-called great pow
ers."
They are a big factor in the
armies Of Chang Tso Lin, the Man
churian war lord, who has the sup
port not only of Japanese imperial
ism, but is heralded by American
dollar rule as "the strong man of
China" It is, therefore, the exploit
ers Of white, brown and yellow
civilizations" as they are found in
the western world, in Japan, and
even in China itself, that invites
against the emancipation struggle Of
the Chinese masses.
It is very evident that the Chi
cago Tribune's wrath over the MUIR
derous lust of the white guard Rus
slams and the many crimes of
Chang's soldiery, did not grow out
OF any sympathy for the Chinese
worker and peasant masses. 1t
seems that little discretion was used
by the mad soldiery turned loose
to loot, rape and massacre. They
selected some of their victims from
among the class that white civil
f~ok{o,,u 1a o~aafad oud eunpOrfad in
an effort to protect. Here is the COM
plant:
There is the case of four Russian
mercenary soldiers on the broad
thorofare known as Pig Street near
the scene Of the fair held every
ten days and so widely attended by
foreigners, and known as Lung Flu
su. In possession of a command
eered cart they seized from among
the passers-by five of the most re-
fined and best dressed girls they
could encounter, bound them with
ropes to the cart and conveyed them
to their camp outside the Chao
Yang-men, or East Gate"
Then again:
an the compound of great for
eign oil company outside the Yung
Ting-men, OF South Gate, where the
sixth Shantung division occupied all
the houses, the commander Of the
company took possession of the
compound and drove out the staff,
expelled the agent, installed himself
in the Office and had brought to him
the virtuous, refined and attractive
daughter of an official Of the cham
Der of commerce"
It matters not what happens to
the 400,000,000 of the Chinese peo-
pie, degraded by imperialist bandit
rule, but the daughters Of foreign oil
companies and the chambers Of the
commerce must be protected. The
Chicago Tribune screams for its
own and the excuses of the white
guard Russians and the imported
mercenaries of every imperialist
power, and the footing, bandit hosts
of Chang Tso Lin will be curbed
a little, to avoid these complaints.
But they will not be curbed inso-
far as the Chinese masses are con-
cerned. And that is one of many
reasons why the Chinese masses re-
sist them to the utmost.
The Kuominchun (the National
Revolutionary Army is the army Of
the people. It does not loot, OF
rape, OF murder. It therefore, meets
with a growing sympathy among
the masses. 1t fights for the mass
es, to liberate them from the grip
of imperialist exploitation.
The white guard Russian merce-
naries, the imperialist soldiery Of
the United States, japan, France,
Great Britain, and other capitalist
nations, were driven out of Soviet
soil by the Red army Of the work
ers and peasants. The Kuomin-
chun, the developing Red army OF
the Chinese masses, will also run
these invaders, as we'll as native
tyrants, off Chinese soil and achieve
liberated China. That is the night
mare that troubles the restless sleep
of the world imperialigts.
