ion has since gained the unanimous support Of the
intelligent public of the west and has been dearly
cherished by the Chinese people in general and by
the young intelligent Chinese in particular. If the
government of the Powers" were sincere in wish
ing China good government, they would have re-
cognized the southern government, which is strong
and representative of the Chinese people; az least
they would not have helped its enemy. But the
Powers" have shown sincerity of this kind.

The Attitudeof a Southern Chinese

A 7 times Americans think that the Chinese should
struggle only against their own military chief
tains. "If you can get rid of them and establish
strong and representative government" they say,
mo foreigner will be able to exploit your people"
These American friends not thoroughly
quanted with the complicated conditions in China.
Can any one imagine that those who have obtained
special privileges from China by force are willing
to give them up? Of course not Therefore, the
remoter the day when the Chinese establish strong
and representative government, the better for the
foreign expoiters
In order to accomplish their purpose they use the
Chinese military chieftains their tools for per-
petuatng the chaotic condition in China. Since
money-making is their end, they like best that
means which brings them the greatest material pro-
fit. When they see that they fish with greater
profit in foul waters, they do all they can to keep
the water turbid to let it get clear. Dc
l blame the foreign expoiters without foundation?
Again, evidences are before the world The Japanese
government has supported the former bandit, Chang
Tso-Lin whom all the Chinese people hate. The
British government has financed with Chinese money
and with secret loans the medieval lords, WI Pei
Flu and Sen Chuang-Fon, who have deprived the
Chinese of their freedom of press and speech, and
who have closed the colleges to enlarge their mrer-
cenary forces.

daring to request the powers" to treat them as
men and women, not as slaves. What more need
/ say? What alternative would any lover of liberty
in the west advise the Chinese people to choose?
H.
Those who have no sympathy with young China
usually blame them for having received Russian
help. To them wish to explain that whatever Rus
sa's motives may be, she, the new Russia, does not
share any longer the control of Chinese tariff nor
does she any longer have concessions within Chinese
territory. She has returned to China all that was
taken from her in the time of the Tsar. She treats
China her equal In other words, Russia helps
the Chinese cause, the liberation of the Chinese
people from foreign claims and from bandit rulers.
We Chinese welcome such friendly help from any
people who may be wiling to render it. as did the
Americans in 1778 welcome French help. In our
attitude toward foreigners, we do not make excep-
tons of the Russians merely because they are now
disliked by those "Powers" which are actually con-
trolling China. Meanwhile we beg Chinas friends
to be kindly patient Four hundred millions Of pee

we, who are lovers of our country, believe that the

and Mark Eisenberg-the cream
OF the plutocracy, celebrating their
greatest triumph to date. There
would be American flags and
streamers on the walls, and some
would wave little flags-a great
patriotic occasion-nothing like it
since the Armistice-ray for Cool
idge, keep cool with Cal! The room
would be crowded to suffocation,
and by this hour nine-tenths of the
dancers would be staggering. Large
wasted financiers with crumpled
shirt-fronts, hugging stout wives
or slender mistresses, with naked
backs and half-naked bosoms hung
with diamonds and pearls, red
paint plastered on their lips and
platinum bangles in their ears,
shuffling round and round to the
thump of the tomtom, the wall of

and snarl of stopped trumpets.

Ruth cried in exictement-he was
coming back to life! But the nurse
said that meant nothing, the doc
tors had said he might move. They
must not let him move his head.
She took his temperature, but told
them nothing.
Paul's hands were straying over
the sheet that covered him; aim

were picking at insects on the bed.
His voice rose louder-Russian

They were in the red square, and

he began to fight back. Did he

there was Bunny holding down one
arm and Gregor the other, with
Ruth and Rachel each clinging to
one foot, while the nurse came
running with a straight jacket.
So with much labor they tied him
fast. He would make terrific eff
forts; his face would turn purple,
and the cords would stand out in
his neck; but the system had got

Yes, the announcer was drunk,

not carry them straight, they
wavered and wiggled; the laws of
the physical universe had gone
staggering, God was drunk on His

blur of sound and motion, the shin

ENTER Banking" Kahn

Otto Kahn, famous banker, art pa

luminary of Wall Street, has advised
idealistic college students to enter
banking as a means of lettering hu-

Kahn's advice was contained in an
interview with him in the first issue
Of "The Daily Princetonian," under
its new board, which appeared Tues
day. II recommend banking to col

its scope, touching every field in COM

"Collegians are trained for this, as
they have acquired a general interest

Kahn then gave ten golden rules
for success, Here are few samples:
