 GENERAL FUND
Nearly Three Billion Dol lars Realized on De-
 valuation Order

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. The dollar profit to the Government on President Roosevelt's devalua- tion order is given by the Treasury as two billion eight hundred and five million dollars.
 This has been paid into the General Fund and has wiped out the Federal deficit which stood at one billion nine hundred and tWen- ty-two million dollars.
 The profit gave a surplus on the years expenditures to date of al- most one billion unless Secretary Morgenthau should decide to use some of this profit to meet the current expenditures which he said the Treasury does not plan to do. The year-end deficit will still reach seven billion dollars as estimated by President Roosevelt.

Writer on Far Eastern Affairs Says Review in
Daily Missed Historical Inaccuracies

carrying out the policy that proved
disastrous.
TO deal more concretely with the
L events of March. 1927, it is nee
essary to point out that Malraux
gives Just the reverse picture of the
conditions of the party leadership
in Shanghai and Hankow. Accord
ing to Malraux, Kyo, the militant
Shanghai leader, went to the Han
kow headquarters for instructions
and found the latter hopelessly OPP
portuniStic. The history of the
period shows that the leadership of
the Hankow headquarters, consist
ing of Chang Ko-Tao, the present
vice-chairman of the Soviet Chi
nese Government, Chu Chiu-Pei,
and Ii Li-san, was much more de-
ternined to expose and fight
against Chang Kai-shek than the
Shanghai leadership under the
domination of Chen Tu-Hsiu and
Peng Shu-Chi.
Posters with the slogan, Down
With the traitor Chang Kai-shek!"
had already appeared on the streets
of Hankow in March. 1927, while
Chen Tu-Hsiu at Shanghai was
arguing that the national hero,
Chang Kai-shek, should be saved
rather than destroyed, and making
all kinds Of concessions which went
as far as persuading the revolution
airy 26th division Of the army not to
oppose Chang but to obey orders
and move out Of Shanghai.
It was the same 18th division
which Chang Kai-shek reorganized
