Soviet Union against intervention in
China. The Pravda writes that all
powers are preparing TO
crush the Chinese Revolution.
HankOw Troops Mutiny.
A section of Marking govern
ment troops garrisoning Hankow,
the bodyguard of the
Garrison Commander have mutinied
and Joined the Communists, accord
ing to capitalist press reports late
Another despitch states
that "the district between Hankow
and Shasi is reported wholly under
Red domination" that "red banners
bearing the sickle and hammer >,
were reported flying from the flag
staffs of villages and towns along
the Yangtze," and that "large pla-
cards bearing Communist slogans
were erected on the river banks"
Communists Penetrate North.
"a survey north of the river in
dicates the Red propaganda corps
is exceedingly busy behind the
lines of the Northern Coalition
and that their efforts are being
concentrated in Southern Chill
(the province where Picking is
situated) among the peasantry,"
according to report by Hallet
Abend. the correspondent of the
New York Times in Shanghai.
This report indicates that while
there is unevenness of development
in the different parts of the coun-
try. the Chinese Revolution move
ment is nationwide movement, by
no means limited to one locality.
Thus it can be clearly seen that
the revolution is sweeping on with
increasing force, ever on the often
sive, despite the temporary loss of
Changsha, which evidently has not
affected to any significant extent
the forward offensive march of the
revolutionary forces.
Imperialist Intervention.
The imperialists, on the other
hand, are pushing with full force
their policy of extensive military
Intervention in China. In an inter-
view given by Assistant Secretary
Of State Castle yesterday, the tao
tics of American imperialism in
China can be clearly seen. Mr..
Castle says:
"The matter of military and
naval movements was entirely in
the hands of the American COM
manders in the Far East"
This means that the American
marines and gunboats are giving a
free hand in the attempt to sup
press the revolution. This amounts
to nothing less than an open de-
,laration of war against the revo-
luton and putting China under the
martial law" of the imperialist
military and naval forces. Diplo-
mats from various imperialist coun-
tries, from Great Britain, and from
Japan, are busy talking with each
other and the American State De-
partment about plans of interven-
ton. The Chinese Minister at
Washington, D. c., WI, has also
been summoned by his imperialist
masters to be present at their dis
cussions.
A despatch from London indicates
What kind of eggs the imperialist
powers are Matching in regard to
China. The reports says:
"The suggestion is made here
that Great Britain and the United
States should make a concerted
offer to assist the Chinese Gov
eminent in the restoration of or
der by lending officers who will
organize the Marking Govern
ment's military forces and end the
desultory war of many years. 1t
is said the Chinese authorities at
Marking would readily accept such
an Offer"
Yes, the very nature of the Nan
ing government, as a willing tool
# the imperialists, indicates that
lanking would readily accept such
IN offer. But the workers and pea
ants of China will prevent the real
zation of such a plan, which they
,now is not only directed to the en-
lavement of China but also repre-
ients a step in the military prepar-
atoms for an imperialist attack to
