questions concerning China
have assumed a leading import
ance today, in view Of the growth
of the Soviet power and its con-
solidation into the second workers
and farmers republic. This fact
has had, and will more and more
have, tremendous repercussions on
the colonial movement for national
liberation and on the course of the
world revolutionary movement.
It is of the utmost importance
chat more attention be paid to
events in the Far East. They are
making history and, in doing so,
affect the daily lives of all OF us.
The Daily Worker, within limits of
space, does present this informa-
tion. But China Today specializes
in bringing this information in a
correlated, more embracing, man
ner, and more Of it.
Several numbers have already
been issued. The current issue
shows improvement over the pre-
ceding numbers, although they too
were good, and augurs well for the
printed magazine promised for the
Fan. This number deals with the
latest events in China particularly.
and in the Far East generally. in
detail, linking them with the whole
chain of events now Transforming
the Far East. The aftermath of
the Fukien rebellion; proof of the
direct negotiations between the Ma
tionahst Government and japan
Tor the virtual sale of China to the
japanese imperialists; the effects
OF Japan's occupation of North
China in terms of the increased
misery Of the workers and peasants.
figures on education in Soviet
China-these are a few of the out
standing articles presented in China
Today and nowhere else available.

Il majority Of farmers In Lincoln
County who are bitter against the
government, politicians and "the
nillionsires" are the two Upholders
Of that minority which controls the
county: the newspaper and the law.
Here, L. T. Bowen is publisher
and editor Of the Lincoln County
Times and r. @. Applewhite g
Sheriff. It is the custom to laugh
good naturally at the county editor
but he has q greater influence on
the public opinion Of his community
than a large and influential daily
has on its great city. The country
editors paper is read thoroughly.
What he says editOrially Is eheWed
over In the country store and com
mented upon in the home. The
country editor is the real mouldef
of public opinion in this country
where most Of the population lives
in towns of 5000 or under. Hence
the views OF the country editor, 9

If 1 had secured the land for e

tor I could not have found a better
specimen, in appearance at least,
than L. H. Bowen. When walked
into the Times one room ONCE

in his county and he peers az you

an addition TO that, many farm

the government as a great big

what's the matter with this county

Brother Bowen does not, OF course,
say as much in his newspaper be-

French Police
Launch Drive
On Foreigners

PARIS, Dec. 12.-For three days
Paris has been in the grip of a
government directed anti-foreign
attack.
In various quarters large forces
of police invaded localities inhab-
tied by foreign-born workers and
brutally beat both passers-by and
residents. A great number Of for
eigners we're seized and carried off
to police stations. Many Of them
were later deported.
These attacks are part of the
anti-foreign campaign now being
pushed by the Flandin administra-
ton. These are the means BY
which the government ENSURES a
living for French workers" The
French working class is opposed,
however, to this sort Of help" and
Is well aware that the campaign
against the foreigner is not only no
protection against unemployment,
but on the contrary is the begin
ming of further mass dismissals and
the continuation Of the employers
offensive against the working class
Andre Marty, Communist member
of the Paris City Council, de-
manded an explanation of the Pre-
lecture of Police. But the Prefect,
not being present at the session,
will render his explanation" at the
next sitting of the Council.
