Condemn Treaties
Among the things TO which a large
faction of the Cantonese object are
the so.called inequalities existing be.
tween Chinese and foreigners IN
China. They arise from the "un-
equal treaties" they guarantee
foreigners immunity from Chinese
courts, permit foreign settlements

There are no American concessions

The Cantonese would like TO abol

welcomed by Chinese when foreign

Cantonese want Chinese to have at
least proportionate representation
upon the various municipal admins

that in exchange for such Equality"
the Cantonese would provide stable
government in China.
Race From Bandltry
Cantons opponents in the current
civil war have been the militarists
of the north, who are described by
the Cantonese as bandits. 1t is true
that several Of the North China
miltarists, notably Chang Tso.Lin,
Of Manchuria. the most powerful OF
the lot, reached their present feudals
lord estate through success at bau'
ditry. The Cantonese further charge
that the North China militarists are
selfish and inspired, with no thought
but personal gain and luxurious
living.
Foreigners enter into the picture
because Of tremendous foreign in.
vestments in China. Great mills and
industries have grown up in the
treaty ports. Massive European
buildings. paved streets, pretty
