COMMUNISM MAKES GAINS
THROUGH CHINESE AREAS
Soviet Party Stronger Now Than at Any
Time Since Kuomintang Purged
Itself of Reds.

into seven districts. These districts are,
In turn, subdivided into 100 branches,
each branch being administered by a
committee of 3.
The highest administrative authority
in the party is the central executive
committee, where originate all orders
affecting general policy. This body is
assisted by a publicity department.
The administrative unit for each prov
ince is provincial committee, which
has under its jurisdiction various dis
trict committees.
The greatest care is exercised in
organizing cells to guard against de-
lection by the ever-watchful police
authorities. Minute instructions on the
subject of secrecy have been issued from
Moscow in pamphlet form to the COM
rades in China. A great deal of the
information contained therein has been
brought to light in Shanghai from time
to time in literature confiscated by the
police. The instructions in one such
pamphlet included detailed advice on
such subjects as How to Convene a
Secret Meeting" Safe Custody of
Secret Documents" Evasion of Agents"
Disguise" etc.
The intercommunication between diff
ferent Communist cells Is so planned
that the discovery of one cell does not
necessarily bring about detection of
the whereabouts of other units. Mes
Sengers who carry communications from
one cell to another are permitted to
know the situation of only two cells
and members of cells know at most the
location of two cells in addition to their
own. For example, "B" will know the
whereabouts of "A" and &C." but will
have no information regarding cell 3D."
Thus the detection of one cell at most
ieopardizes the security of but two
others.
The Communist party today is more
prolific in the production and dis
Semination of Red literature in China
than at any time, with the exception
of the brief period when the party en-
joyed the support and cooperation of
the Kuomintang. Some idea of the
volume of Communistic written propa-
ganda which is being circulated may
be obtained from the fact that in one
raid in Shanghai 5000 copies each of
10 different pieces of literature were
confiscated by police. The party activi-
ties obviously are being financed from
an outside source, but thus far the
police have declined to give any infor-
nation as to where the funds are coming
from.
Although Shanghai and Canton are
believed to be the centers where the
Chinese Communist party has the larg-
est following, Red influence has made
itself felt recently In Northern Man
churia as well. Since the temporary
settlement of the Chinese Eastern Rail-
way dispute and the restoration of the
railway to Joint Sino-Russian admins
tration Communism has been gaining
Ia influence every day.

Hawaii to Receive

The Bureau of Roads in Washington
has approved an allotment of 100000
for highway connecting the "kona
side" OF the island of Hawaii with the
site of Kilauea Volcano, one Of the
great natural wonders Of the world.
The territory must match this with
100000 on Its own account, q condi-

for years has been working to get ade-

l. eralfeldmarschall Won linden

L of the German Republic. He sue
ceeded Ebert, civilian and a
Socialist He himself was soldier and
a monarchiSt. 1t is not to be wondered
that Germany's late enemies regarded
the transfer of Office with miSgivingS. A
coalition of parties from the Right had
nominated and elected the aged general.
Fourteen and half million voices had
declared for him. .,
While undoubtedly it was a matter Of
congratulation that the menace OF rev.
olution which had lowered for seven
years over the reich should thus be dis
posed of with flnality. it. was not alto
gether reaSsuring to see that the repre-
sentative of conservatism now elected
should not only be a standpatter, but a
reactiopary. 1t was too much to expect
the late commander of the imperial
armies to sympathize very strongly with
republicaniSm and democracy. 1t was
too much to expect an officer who had
engaged in the 1866 campaign and seen
Prussia assure for herself the annexa-
ton of Schleswig- Holstein. and who had
engaged in the War of 1870 and seen a
German Emperor crowned monarch of a
reich which included the ancient Teu-
tonic provinces of Alsace and Lorraine,
to abide by the dismemberment Of YER
sailles. Hindenburg was known to re-
sent the situation of East Prussia. AS
militarist his attitude toward Germany's
disarmament might well be imagined.
His advent was taken as ominous.
Has DisprOved Pessimists.
Five years after his temperance, how
ever, one must admit that the pessi-
mists were wrong. Former Gen. Won
Hindenburg has not been a sword rat
tier. 1t is significant that the first
months Of his administration were dig
nified with the StreSemann-B BRAND
Chamberlain Pact of Locarno and that
the year saw Germany's entrance into
the League of Nations. Hindenburg's
administration has been dominated by
the spirit of Locarno and Geneva rather
than by that of Observation-Disclosures 1t

many in 1871 or the Versailles of vim
dicative France in 1919.
The animosities of the peace treaties
have been minimized by this old soldier.

made for celebrating it.
Even If a celebration had been held it
is doubtful If the United States, which
was invited in to settle the argument
and eventually did, would march any
where near the head of the parade.
The role Of peacemaker is, VIGOROUSLY, a
thankleSs one, and 1t is much too soon
after the signing of the treaty for either
of the two republics to regard Uncle
Sam as the well-meaning old gentleman
he was in the part he played.
Each of the countries Is heartily glad
that an end of the dificulty finally
was reached, but neither appears too
certain that it got all it should have.
However, the former state of mind
seems stronger than the latter, and that
fact should be reason enough for cele-
in the amiable relations that obtain be-
tween the Peruvians and ChileanS in
the two border towns.
africa Destined to Grow.
Under the terms of the treaty africa
remained Chilean territory and Tacna
was given to Peru. The towns are of
about equal population, 5000, but it is
evident that africa will gain and grow
will diminish in both. africa is the
terminus of the railway to La Paz,
and, being a port with good harbor,
the point of transhipment of Bolivian
exports and imports. Tacna, which lies
10 miles inland, is a mining center, and
formerly enjoyed measure of impor-
lance and prosperity from the consid-
cradle Chilean garrison based there.
The garrison has, since the treaty,
moved down to africa.
Then, too, Tacna is cut off from
the remainder of Peru except by a
hardly adequate highway, and its prin-
cipal means Of communication with 1t
is maintained by the planes of the
american Grace air service. When
these big ships, coming from Lima, soar
gracefully down to a landing at the
Tacna airport they are met by a
crowd and cause as much excitement as
does the arrival of passenger steamer
in the anchorage of africa.
Nationalities IntermingIe.
1t is necessary for both civilians and
soldiers coming from the principal parts
of Peru to enter Chilean territory at
africa and ride on a Chilean train to
get to their town of Tacna, Conse-
quently there is much mingling of the
two nationalities in africa, and 1t is no
uncommon sight for Peruvian soldiers.

The only successful farming in the
long run is farming by men who own

The writer talked with a half dozen
conspicuously able and successful
Southern farm leaders during his tour
of the Southeast, and they all agree
in the main with Prof. BranSons die
tum. Yet what is happening? Tenancy
and the farming Of cotton lands on
shares by ignorant choppers increases.
The quality Of Southeastern cotton pro-
duction goes down as 1t faces its great
est crisis.
Aston H. Garside. economist Of the
New York Cotton Exchange, delivered
an address a few weeks ago in Mem
pl1is in which he declared that on in
formation gathered from so leading
cotton importers in Europe, so repre-
sentative spinners in this country and
SO large shippers and exporters through
out the South, 1t was agreed that there
has been a marked deterioration in re-
cent years in the quality of most Ameri-
can cotton. He said that the cotton of
the West was responsible in large meas
ure for this deterioration, but that
North Georgia also had lost its reputa-
ton as q producer Of dependable, even
running strong inch to inch-and-six-
tenth cotton"
He found some encouragement, how
ever. in the fact that large areas In the
Piedmont sections Of South and North
Carolina were improving the quality Of
their output.
