BOLSHEVISM IN

NEED F6R STRONG CONTROL THE COOLIES STIRRED UP THE JAPANESE DANGER By Telegrsph—Press Assii.—4J«pyjl<h*. Sydney. Dec. 14. Professor MacMillan Brown,' whil* visiting the East, made extended inquiries regarding the present position hi China. He found that the Bolsheviks had got a hold there and had stirred up the coolies, but were unable to influence the Chinese farmers. The Bolsheviks regarded the British and Japanese an their greatest enemies, and were doing all they could to stir the Chinese against these two nations, and were endeavouring to turn the Chinese against their missionaries. It was very hard for Europeans, especially -British commercial men, to trade in the free ports and coastal towns. China would never be a unity. A Chinese army meant a gang of bandits, and he could not see the slightest hope for China, unless a strong military Power like Japan took control. China hated Japan, but Japan was trying to do the right thing in China. If Japan succeeded in mastering China we would then have to look out, for she would then try to conquer the world. In epite of protestations of pacifism, and at a time when other countries were trying to reduce armaments, Japan remained the beet organised nation in the world from the military and naval standpoints.
