CAPITALISTS HELD
RESPONSIBLE FOR.
CHINA DISORDERS.

New York, Oct. 80. (U.P)-Re-
sumption of civil war in China is
the result, primarily, of increasing
financial difficulties in which the
Marking Nationalist have found
themselves. Chang Kai-Shek's abb
solutist power has depended basic
ally, in the past on the support
of the so-called Chekiang CAPITAL
ism group in Shanghai, dominated
by the Ningpu millionaire, Yu
Hsia-chiang. Chang Kai-shek was
employed as a young man in the
Shanghai Produce Exchange. con-
trolled by Yu Hsia-chang. The
two have had very close relation
ships since Chang Kai-shek came
into power.
The Chekiang capitalism group
is understood to have advanced an
proximately s250,00O,O 900 in various
forms to the Nationalist. But.
recently, difficulties about securing
further cash arose and T. V. Soong.

the young Harvard graduate, vino
has served as Nationalist Minister
of Finance, handed in his resigna-
ion. He has been closely identi-
fled with Yu Hsia-chiang, having
been brought up at Ningpu. His
resignation was interpreted in var
ious quarters as implying objec-
tons by Chekiang capitalism to
the way the Nationalist funds had
been dispersed. He was prevailed
upon to retain office, but the flow
Of money into the Nationalist ex-
cheQuer has slowed up since Tire
incident.
New Groups Forming
The success or failure of the
new revolt against Markings rule
s likely to be determined by the
future attitude of Yu Hsia- chianr.
Having sunk so much wealth in
the Nationalist cause, it is possible
that eventually more will be forth
coming to save the Marking re-
gime. But new capitalistic groups
are coming into being in China,
and the possibility also exists that
an amalgamation of the financial
interests will result, which while
supporting Nationalist ambitions
will insist on the retirement OF
Chiang-shek.

legislative agent for the american

Federal Power COmmissious pub
lie hearing, Oct. 28, on the appli-
cations for the power sites on the

extOrtionate level.
Walter H. Wheeler of Minneapo-
lis, bidder against the Rocky
Mountain Power Co., dummy for
the Montana Power Co., which is a
subsidiary of the Electric Bond &

80 per cent more annual revenue
from the power than would the bid
filed by the trust. Present in be-
half of the Montana Power Co.
were Vice-President Kerr, Daniel
Kelly and Pope of its legal staff
and many others. M. o. Leighton

the Electric Bond & Share group
was at Kerr's elbow when Kerr
testified that Montana Power had
no connection with Electric Bond

that there was a contractual rela-
ton between the two companies
such as exists between the Electric
Bond & Share and all of its sub
salaries.
Senators Walsh of Montana and
Frazier of North Dakota-the lat
ter as chairman of the Senate
committee on Indian affairs-were

!DISTRICT 0F WILMA l IN FAMINE'S GRIP
Thousands of NeV Britain Poles
 From Affected Province

The province of Wilma, Poland, now suffering from famine n re- suit of the unusually cold winter and failure Of the flax crop. was the birthplace of thousands of New Britain Poles. and many residents I of this city have members of their families in the stricken area. Mots of those who came here from Poland were residents of the northern portion of that country. and it is in this district that the shortage of food is being felt the most. Dzisna and Glembokie, in particular. are stricken. Marshal Pilsudski has hastened to these provinces to direct the relief agen- cies of the government. now taking care of sO,0O0 residents of Dzisna alone. Meanwhile the relief work is being extended northerly.
 The famine has affected the entire province of Wilma. The misfortunes of the district started last year after a bad harvest of flax. which is the country's principal product. The population of Dzisna and Glembokie has always been poor and has lived on potatoes and bread. eating meat and eggs on such exceptional oc- casions as weddings, christenings. Christmas and Easter.
 The bad flax harvest of last year did not permit of adequate provi- sions of grain and potatoes and as far back as the month of March famine was apparent. The govern- ment aid must continue since the number of families with exhausted food provisions is increasing, and no hope is held out for relief in the way of crops until the latter part of July.
 As far as could be determined to- day. there are no New Britain tour ists now in the Wilma region.
