ANTI-RED DRIVE
ON CHINA Hit
BY MANY BLOWS
|anking Government
Feels Worse Crisis

Heavy blows from all sides are be-
ing directed against the Chang Kai
Shek government of China. The
widely heralded anti Communist drive
of the Marking tool of Wall Street
is meeting its end Months ago
Ckiang Kai Shek personally went to
Hankow, declaring he would not re-
turn until the reds were wiped off
the map in China 1t looks as if
Chang Kai Shek is going TO be
wiped off the map. His first divisions
were defeated. He sent more. They
were paralyzed
Now cable from Shanghai to the
New York Times states that Chang
kai Shek is withdrawing his anti
Communist forces. While the reason
given for this is that other militar-
lists have fallen out with the i'm
perialist tool over the division of the
swag, still the main fact is that the
Communist forces have proved i'm
pregnable Chang Kai Shek has Or
dered two crack Cantonese divisions
in Kiangsi Province to stop their
anti-Red drive.
Other forces are also working for
the smash-up of the Marking regime.
In the last few days the price of sill
Yer dropped to the lowest point in
history. Silver is the medium of eX-
change in China. 1t reflects the
world crisis and further intensifies
the crisis in China itself. The value
of money in China has dropped
sharply. An Associated Press dis
patch from Shanghai says this is
working havoc in China. For in
stance. this cable says:
"Manchuria, heretofore the only
consistently prosperous area in China,
also was reported dangerously near
a crisis because of the paralyzing ef-
fects of the silver slump"
This means more impoverishment
Of the masses. A lowering of the
standard of living of the workers way
below their present miserable state.
II means sharper struggles. Only the
Communist Party of China offers a
way out-the smashing of the feudal
and imperialist rule of China and the
establishment of Soyiets which will
give the land to the peasants and
better the conditions of the workers.

money, as demanded, for the relief
o. the starving and homeless. But
at the same time that they are talk
ing of having no funds for the lm-

additional half million dollars for
more police TO club the jobless if they
protest against starvation.
Only o powerful demonstration of
working class strength and determin-
