Possible Results

Really the two perils to the young
China cause dovetail and form only
one. If the radicals among the ma
tionalists gain the upper hand, the
foreign powers are almost certain to
intervene in the civil war. And if,
on the other hand, the foreign
powers attempt any strong-arm
measures against the Chinese while
the radical-moderate clash is on, the
radicals would almost surely rise to
the top on the wave of anger which
would sweep the country.
Any punitive acts INDUCED in by
the foreign powers whose warships
and armed forces are now crowding
in on China, can only tend to throw
the country into the arms of the anti
foreign radicals and weaken the
moderates by that much.
The Smelling of Marking, however
necessary it may have been, played
right into the hands of the Chinese
extremists. A few more such Incl
dents would inflame all China
against all foreigners and incite fur
their mob violence which, in turn,
would lead to more reprisals, the
other name for which is war.
The best friends Soviet Russia has
in the Far East today are those for
eign powers which by hook or crook
would crush the efforts of those

NAT|ONAL|STS Of
CHINA NOW FACE
. LIFE, DEATH TEST
Dispute in Own Ranks and
Ultimatum by Powers
Put Future in Balance.
BY William Philip Simms
Times staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, April 15.-The
fate of the present nationalist move
ment in China is now in the balance,
due to two new factors.
First the nationalist forces are
threatened by a split within their
own ranks as moderates and radicals
fight for control.
Second "a virtual ultimatum from
the five great powers-America
Britain, Japan, France and Italy
today hangs menacingly over the
nationalist leaders with only a thin.

At Cost of Two Wars

At Cost of Two Wars
Japan had to fight two great wars,
one with China, the other with the
mighty Russia, before Europe opened
her eyes to the truth, which was
that Japan was at last awake.
VIII China have to do the same?
If she must she will, for no matter
what becomes of the present war
against the old order, the fight will
not really end until like Japan,
China comes into her own.
For no race, however inferior it
may be, will consent to famish slow
ly in order that other people may
fatten and take their case, especial
ly if it has a good chance to make
a fight for life"
