Uneasiness over the growing anger
of the Chinese masses against the
imperialist plunderers and their Kuo-
mintang tools. In its effort to stem
this anger, the Kuomintang Congress
INDUCED in another empty gesture,
adopting a four-year plan for mill
itary defense"
The rapid growth of this mass de-
tense movement is seen in report
from Shanghai Of a 3-day strike by
$4,000 Chinese students in that city.
The dispatch reports:
can increase of the belligerent
spirit among local Chinese is I'M
mistakable. Students and patriotic
associations are using the seizure
of Tsitsihar to arouse greater in
dignation."
Another dispatch reports that
school children at Tientsin contrib
uted a sum of 5000 for national de-
tense. In statement sent to the
Marking Government, the school
children state:
"Chinese citizens should render
material assistance, not merely talk
of patriotic movements"
Fear Growth of Revolutionary
Movement
The real bogy Of the imperialists
and their Chinese lackeys is the tire
mendous growth Of the revolutionary
movement in China. The Saka Main
ichi and Tokyo Nichi Nichi, make an
editorial appeal to the British i'm
perialists to help in crushing the re-
evolutionary movement, the growth Of
which they try to explain as an out
growth of the flood disaster and hav-
ing no connection with the Japanese
aggressions in China. The editorial
states:
ut is now a foregone conclusion
that sooner or later serious upris-
ings are bound to break out in the
Yangtse region as consequence
of the vast inundation, in all prob
ability under the influence of Boil
shevism. The trouble is already
in process of fermentation. Brit
aims interests are concentrated
precisely in the territories to be di-
rectly affected by such uprisings.
We are not certain that she is cap
able of coping with the flood of
turbulent mobs single-handed. In
needlessiy provoking Japan, her
statesmen are precluding the pos
sibihty of japanese collaboration
in facing the peril. Lord Reading
lacks not only confidence, but
also foresight. The future of the
British position in the Far East is
regretably sombre indeed"
The following protests was sent to
the japanese government by the Me-
tropolitan Anti-Japanese Society:
"The Japanese Government has
demanded that the Marking Gov
eminent suppress the anti-Japanese
movement, but this movement of
the people arose as spontaneous
growth attendant upon Japan's i'm
perialism and has not and can not
be investigated by any individual
or a group of individuals. 1t can
not be suppressed by the Govern
ment. The stronger the gesture,
the more violent the outburst will
be.
Our patriotic ardor is entirely
incompatible with the irnperialistic
policy of the Japanese nation. IF
dire consequences follow, SO much
the worse for jam"
Japanese Authors Protest Manchu-
rian Adventure
The japanese section OF the In
ternational Association of Revolu-
tionary Authors has sent telegram
to the secretariat here, reading as
follows:
1--WE protest energetica1ly against
the military provocations of Japanese
imperialism in Manchuria, against
the insolent adventure of the Jap
anese General Staff, against the &C.
cupation of Manehuria by japanese
troops and against the reparations to
divide up China. We are organizing
a mass protest campaign throughout
Japan,%
Compare this attitude with the
blatant jingoism and treachery of the
Japanese Socialists"
japanese Communist leader impri-
soned
During the proceedings against a
series of Communists in Toxic, the
accused Toho Katayama (not to be
confused with Sen Katayarna, the
veteran Japanese Communist de-
clared:
To-day is the fourteenth ami
versary of the November Revolu-
ton in Russia. After the Russian
workers had carried out their vic
torious revolution the imperiaiist
powers, including Japan, attenpt-
cd to crush the revolution by in
