Two Good Games
In Ball League

Two lively baseball battles mark
cd the play in the Fl Centre Indoor
baseball league last night, the teams
displaying some good baseball de-
s?ite the high wind which made
play rather dusty at times.
In the opening encounter the Rim
Ky Dinks and Firemen each register
ed five runs in the first five in
nings and then followed a runless
battle for the next four frames. In
those four innings some great ball
was played but the Rinky Dinks
cracked under the strain and the
Fircmcn registered six runs to turn
in an II to victory.
The second contest was cut to
four innings by agreement due to
the overtime battle waged by the
Fircmcn and Rinky Dinks. The
Bankers and Legion met in this tus-
sle with the Legion finally crashing
through to a "A to 13 victory.
The only other game scheduled
for this week in the league race

"a Blood-Letting to Stagger the
World"
In concluding this brief review, in
which we have let the decisive word
on each point be spoken by avowed
imperialists or Kuomintang officials,
let the last word be given to an anony-
nous writer in the Picking & Tientsin
Times, who wrote a series of articles
during April describing his trip to
the South of China and his conclusions
thereon:
''The spirit in both Hongkong and

go in the last coup, and my own
feeling is that next time Gf there
be next time') the city will fall
into the hands of ruthless masters,
not for three days, or three months,
but for three years or longer.
The main impression derived from
my trip is that the middle classes
are tired of the revolution. The fer
ment is gone and the spirit is eX-
hausted. They have begun even to
fear the revolution. For their part
the choice between peace and
security and tie completion of. the
revolution has been definitely taken.
But the peasants want the same pro-
sale blessings and the spirit has not
gone out of them. If the warning
militarists do not come to their
senses and give the people what
they want and quickly (even if it is
not already too late) the peasantry
will do what they have done again
and again in Chinese history, and
hack way through. And there will
be such blood-letting as will stag

the second of these fronts. Thus far
the Chinese have lost, although it is
too early to judge of the outcome.
The white terror that has reigned
in China during the past Ia months
was a struggle on the third Of these
fronts. The business classes have
won, to date, but only at the price
of establishing powerful, under
ground revolutionary movement
among workers, farmers, students.
Victory is still far from assured.
The Chinese business classes have
long way to go before they can
hope, even with their present unde-
pendable allies, to dominate China.
Meanwhile the workers are continu-
ing to build an underground move
ment that grows daily more effect

when he would get old he would fail
to hate the system under which the
working class is exploited. He said
Haywood did more than any other one
man in the U. S. to break down the
respect tor lawyers, judges and
courts.
A member of the Workers Party
told of the experiences he had of
working with Haywood during the
Muscatine button strike and later in
the Lawrence textile strike and also
later of meeting Haywood in Leaven-
worth and also how Haywood was re-
ceived by the inmates of Leaven-
worth.
AL Schapp, of New York, an organ
izer for the Y. w. L., spoke of Hay
wood and his lining up with the Com
munist movement in his later years.
At the conclusion he called for a col
lection to aid the Workers Party in
putting into effect some of the prin-
ciples for which Haywood stood. He
also made fervent appeal to the
workers present to join the Workers
Party.

IN England and America there is
much propaganda to the effect that
the current White Terror against the
workers and peasants furnishes addi-
tional proof of the inhuman brutality,
lack of civilization, and general in
capacity of the Chinese people to
govern themselves. 1t is interesting
in this connection to give bit more
publicity to the actual nature of for
eign, especially British influence upon
the Chinese on this point. There can
be little doubt that the terrible civil
war raging throughout China, the
highest expression of which is the
daily tortures, beheadings and shoot
ings of Communists, finds its source
especially in the British community in
Shanghai.

And how about the nature of the
punishments, torture and indiscrim-

Chinese phenomena? For answer we
may give two small quotations. At
the Shanghai Annual Meeting, the
chairman of the council, Mr.. Fessen-

Chinese towards persons arrested in
the settlement, wished to persuade
