half replete with infantile notions on

be struck by the amazing quality of
his prose. 1t is masterful. Mr.. Wells
has never written better-to less
avail.
The World of William Clissold is be-
ing received with great acclaim by the
clergy here in America. They SER

claim was to be anticipated. For here

he does speak against "god"-his rev.

"The multitude can upset anything,

Masses can only destroy. Their power

itself in the machine breaking ex-
pert-hunting 60 mob" That ought
to suffice for what Mr.. Wells thinks
of the masses and revolution.
Let's taught Mr.. Wells on Marx
and Socialism. He, Marx, was an
"imperfectly aerated old gentleman
sitting in the British Museum" Some
more. 81 have accused Marx as the
prime mover in the destruction of So
cialism." Emphasis mine. One is
almost prompted to ask if Mr.. Wells
does not mean the Abe Cahan brand.

about Marx? Oh mol Mr.. Wells ac-
cuses Marx of everything from wear

went to Russia expecting, presumably,
to find the people walking around in
Greek tunics and acting, in general,
a la "Men Like Gods" But, no. The
people wore coarse linens and had
very little to eat. They had the real
istic task of building Communism in
a socialized country. Mr.. Wells could
not see that.
The book, as said before, is we'll
written. 1t deserves being read for
its presentation of the "liberal
psychology. We are at present hear
ing echoes, here in America, of Mr..
Wells ideas, in the speeches and writ

clares that it is the advertiser who is
revolutionizing the world, not the
Communist. Mr.. Wells book is full
of such ideas. Read it and laugh.

The World of William
Clissold
By H. G. WELLS

published by Doran, n. Y, 2 v. $50.
T N 1893 pages of words, Mr.. Wells
i says the final word on science,
industriaIism, anthropology, the
League of Nations, capitalism, psyche
analysis, love, Lenin, America, Marx,
Russia and Communism. If the reader
will, as he reads on, find too many
quotations, it is for his amusement
only.
Mr.. Wells tells us somewhere along
in the first volume that-"there is no
more capitalism now than there was
feudalism in the eleventh century,"
He cannot understand this consistent
classification (by the Communists) of
people into classes such as capitalist
and proletariat. But what Mr.. Wells
cannot understand should result in no
comment from US. 1t is rather what
he understands or thinks he UNDER
stands and passes judgment on with
such audacious finality, that bristles
our spleen. For Mr.. Wells does write
well. In book that is more than

Japan will probably refrain from armed inter-
vention. Her chief concern with China is COM
mercial. She wants raw materials from China; she
wants to sell finished goods to Chinas vast popula
tion Furthermore, she wants to keep the good
side of the Soviet Union.
More likely than armed intervention is that
the powers, particularly Great Britain and the
United States, will support and subsidize the
lords, who have been opposing the Cantonese. Sun
Chuan-Fang, who has been standing between the
nationalist troops and Canton, is already allied with
Great Britain. The same is true of Wa Pei Flu. 1t
is also likely that Chang Tso-Ln who seems to have
been deserted by Japan recently, win be supported
by the United States and Great Britain in their
attempt to prevent the liberation of China.

China. Whether or not she is prepared to go much
further on her limited budget and with opposition
at home is open to question. The United States
will probably follow Englands lead. The policy of
the United States and Great Britain in the far
East have been more less allied since the United
States smashed the Anglo-Japanese alliance several
years ago.
