TIME MUSIC
BY Jessie MacBride-

DERIVED very personal pleas
1 ure from hearing the historic
Franz LisSt" concert grand
piano, that Chickering and Son
built sixty years ago, and that
was given the sage Of Weiinar at
that time for use on his concert
tours in Europe.
The comparison with the mod.
erti concert grand, Of the CHECKER.
ings today, was demonstrated in
recital on Monday with Jacques
Jolae as the artist and with the
Masonic Auditorium filled with
musicians and music lovers who
were given this rare treat by the
Arthur Jordan Piano Company,
'home OF the Chickering" Of this
city.
Not alone was It interesting to
hear the tones Of q piano, as
Liszt--greatest piano virtuoso of
his day--heard them, but 1t gave
US the evolution Of the piano.
Today, what with sustaining
pedal, with more sturdy structure
and deeper touch, the piano lays
claim to fused effects almost in
the realm Of the orchestra.

i ment, doubtless, for that pure
''pianism' that it takes q master

subtle runs OF absolute clarity:
for sentler melodies that, in the
sweet compelling tone Of the old
instrument seemed captured for
us from some fond memory where

the piano, into modern immensi-

been under discussion within my
experience in the world Of music.
That stately rosewood instrument
highly carved, mellowed, sweet,
left me with bit of regret that
the days Of the minuet have
passed for the tango and the fox
trot.
To the Chickering's, much praise
that their instrument of so years
yet, holds, up to its musical beauty.
We would not go back. The
modern instrument 10 known for

The Soviet Union and China

Three Policies" The "Three Policies
are the wheels on which the Three
Principles" depend to attain their
realization.
These Three Policies are: (1) the
policy of cooperating with the Soviet
Union; (2) the policy of organizing
the workers and peasants and cham
pioning their cause, and (3) the policy
of treating the Chinese revolution as
part of the World Revolution.
The imperialist nations know that
the Three Principles depend on the
Three Policies for their realization.
Therefore, they try every means to
confuse us, to induce us to abandon
our weapons. Some may be confused,
some may be deceived; but the true
revolutionists cannot be confused or
deceived. Chinese revolutionists will
stick to the principles and to the
policies of our dead leader, DR.. Sun
Vat Sen.
The reason why the Koumintang
has determined on the. policy of CO.
operation with Russia as one of the
three great policies seems to me to
be that Russia, being a SYMPATHETIC
nation, treats us on the basis of
equality.
For a century the Chinese have
been humbled before the great i'm
perlalist powers, who have come in,
one after the other, to rob China of
her economic heritage. In the Sino-
Soviet treaty of 1924 China finds a
basis for independent action because
she is backed for the first time by
real support from the West.
In DR.. Suns parting message to
his people he says: that the expert
ence OF these eventful years has con-
WINGED me that in order to attain this
great end (the Chinese nationalist
reyolution) we should and must enlist
the support of the common people at
home and gain the sympathetic co.
operation of those nations which treat
US on a basis of equality. The Soviet.
Union is the only one, and Therefore
CHINA must cooperate with her."
For these reasons-not only be-
cause Soviet Russia treats with Chi
ma on basis of equality, but because
Of the idea Of internationalism, be-
cause of its class organization, be-
caIISe of tha attacks IF ironario1e}
countries land because Of our common
cause against a common enemy-this
is the significance of unity between
the Soviet Union and China. China
and the U. S. S. r. should uniformly
attack the same enemy and cooperate
with each other at all times and in
all ways.

Florence Mills, Dem
ocracy" and the Stage
By WILLIAM PICKENS

THE last time I saw Florence Mills,
she was in theatre in London,
playing beautiful role in her BLACK
birds" A woman of ordinary looks
in everyday life, her grace and art and
plain makeup made her a handsome
brown bird on the stage. isn't she
cute" said an English woman sitting
near.
The papers published by white peo-
pie now refer to her as a Harlem
dancer" / do not know whether they
are thus alluding to Claude McKay's
poem, or whether it is just the white
"slant" of always. thinking of colored
entertainer artists in terms of danes
ing. Perhaps some are confusing her
with Josephine Baker, also of world
fame, but of slightly less enviabla
quality. But Florence was above all
else song artist, a song bird-the
best interpreter of the "Blues" l have
ever heard sing.
The affectionate regard which her
fellow-artists of all races and colors
have shown on the occasion of her I'M
timely death is but another illustra-
ton of our contention: That the world
of artists is much more democratic
than the world of high-brows and
churchgoers.
There is nearer approach to DEM
ocracy on the stage than in the draw
ing rooms of the social SET" This
truth has been made very clear in the
vicissitudes of American Negro musi-
cal and histrionic artists in recent
years, and viii become more and more
a customary and ordinary thing in the
future.

By WILLIAM S. WEI.
(Feature Service of the All-America
Anti-Imperialist Lsague)

We have just celebrated the Tenth
Anniversary of the founding of the
Soviet Union; and this is a good OPP
portunity to discuss the relations be-
tween the U.S.SR. and China.
Ten years ago last March, Russia
was under the yoke of the Gar. To
the tyranny of the Gear was added
the tyranny of imperialist war-the
war of 1914-1918-, which plunged
the old Czarist society into ruin. Rus
sian economy was broken down; in
dustry, transportation, the distribu-
ton of supplies, were disorganized.
There was great food shortage.
Meantime, the badly equipped masses
of soldiery were goaded on continu-
ally to fresh slaughter, in the in
terests of their rulers. Conditions
failed to change with the coming of
Kerensky to power, andl the workers
and peasants realized finally that
they must take their fate into their
own hands. On November 7, 1917,
under the leadership of the great
genius, Lenin, they initiated the great
revolution that has made Moscow "the
capital Of the proletariat" for ten
years.
Not only the proletariat, however,
but all oppressed peoples have re-
ceived fresh impulse from the exist
ence of the Union of Socialist Soviet
Republics.
Ten years ago the Chinese masses
beheld the founding Of the first pro-
letarian republic in the world. All
nationalist forces in China-all ele-
ments opposed to the domination of
China by imperialists-but especially
the workers and peasants, got new
faith and new strength. There was
a new vision. We were preparing to
open new chapter in our history.
China is bound by close ties to this
first proletarian state, because both
China and the Soviet Union are con-
fronted with the same imperialist
enemies.
The Chinese revolution, inspired in
no small degree by the Russian up
heaval, is carried on under the banner
of the Kuomintang, founded by DR..
Sun Vat Sen, the first President of
the Chinese Republic. The Chinese
revolution is based on the famous
Three Principles of DR.. Sun. DR..
Sun, who was the founder of the
Kuomintang, laid down Three "Prin-
ciples" for its revolutionary guild
ance, later supplemented by his
