Marking and Canton
Make United Attack
on Soviet Districts

HONGkONG, June 29.-Sharper
struggles, leading to new militant
wars, between American and British
Imperialism for the control of the
Marking government looms as the
result of latest developments such as
the desertion of the Chinese North
eastern navy and the wsr-like recent
interview os Hu Han-Min, British
controlled Canton war lord.
HUI Han-min, in an interview to
the press today, declared that mill
tarist warfare between Chang Kai
Shek and the Cantonese forces now
under the control of General Chen
Chi Tang is inevitable. Hu protested
against the American loan Of S50,000,-
900 in cotton and wheat to the Nank-
ing government The American loan,
he asserted. will be used to arm
Marking against Canton, and was
fatal American mistake. He did not,
however, point out that the main
purpose of arming Marking was to
continue its wars against the central
Soviet district of China in an effort
to wipe out this main bulwark of
anti-imperiahst resistance
Masses Discomfort Growing.
This struggle which is developing
between the Cantonese war lords and
Chang Kai Shek will sharpen the
British-American antagonisms in
China. The Wall Street government
has large stake in the Marking gov
erument. AS a result of its failure to
stop the resistance of the JapaDer~
imperialists in North China. the Chi
nese masses are increasing their
struggles against the Chang Kai
Shek-Soong regime. HUI Han Min
and the Other Cantonese war lords
want to step in and divert this strug-
gle from a revolutionary overthrow of
Kuomintang rule in China. In the
souabble, British and American i'm
perialism clash for greater control
and spheres of influence. The British
are strongly entrenched in Canton
and have been heavily substituting
the governor of Canton. General
Chen Chi Tang. as well as HUI Han
Min who resides under British pro-
lection in Hong Kong.
Agree on Anti Soviet War.
Despite the differences with Nank-
ing, HUI Han Min pointed out that
they both cooperate to attempt to
DESTROY the Chinese Soviets.

Despite this ennity, Canton has 30

Communists.
The Cantonese troops operate along
the Kan River in Kiangsi against

Shek co-operates with them from his
headquarters in Nanchang The
latest reports from the battle front
coming from Marking itself. showed
that the Red Army defeated and
