i Tie imperialist powers, Britain,
america and Japan particularly are
I in seething concealed dispute as
3 to what to do about the appeal of
5 the Marking government of China"
/ to the Kellogg pact signatories for
armed intervention against the
Soviet Union in behalf of that myth
Aid1l thing known as "Chinese SOW
se Eighty" arising out of the punitive
! e. Pedition of the Red Army into
sManchuria in pursuit of forces of
Chinese troops and Russian white
guards that have been invading
Soviet territory.
While each imperialist power
would like to make the Red Army
action the excuse for armed inter-
aveption, each has a particular axe
to grind, and while all are compelled
to agree that the Kellogg Pact must
be enforced, their rival interests are
hard to compose on just how it is
to be done
While thus far the rivalries of
the imperialists, together with the
revolutionary resistance of the world
proletariat, such as exhibited on
Aug. /, have protected the Soviet
Union from the attack which the
|imperialists had agreed on at the
time of the seizure of the Chinese
Eastern Railway last July, they may
again, if only in desperation at the
growing power of the Soviet Union,
unite in a sudden armed assault on
the Soviet Power, in hopes that by
destroying it, the greatest difficulty
for all Imperialism, their mutual
rivalries may be adjusted later. But
in even approaching the question of
joint attack, these rivalries are
Topping up.
Henderson, the "labor" imperialist
Ereign minister, admits that Eng
land has been communicating with
the United States on the question
and Debuchi, the Japanese ambas-
sador at Washington, has also con-
ferred with Stimson. 1t seems that
neither Britain or Japan agrees with
the U. s. on the proposal for armed
intervention of all powers at this
time, since if such general action was
taken, Japan might lose its domin-
anee in Manchuria, while both Bri-
tain and Japan would be compelled
by such Intervention to support the
Marking "government"-which their
Chinese military lackeys have been
and are trying to overthrow.
Toxic dispatches therefore openly
assert Japan's refusal to accept
Washington's proposal, Japanese Of
ficials stating that the Chinese are
exaggerating the Red Army action,
that Japan rejects China's MAN
king's) appeal, that Washington is
Fnduly alarmed" and that if the
S. intervenes it will haze to do
~ Independently" ie., against
Japan.
Henderson, while agreeing sin
principle" that the Kellogg signator-
les must take "joint action" includes
among such signatories "both the
United States and the Soviet Union,"
and says such agreement must be
reached on the basis of an under
standing on primary points" which
includes the Soviet demand for re-
turn of the Chinese Eastern Rail-
way to its former status"
Unless these rival imperialist
powers can adjust, their differences,
not much more can be expected from
the appeal to the League of Nations
which the Marking representative
at Geneva preached Wednesday as
soon to be made. But with this sim
