SOVIET PRAISED
BY CHINESE “CHRISTIAN GENERAL.” MORE REVOLUTIONS PROMISED. ATTACK ON TREATIES. PEKIN, October 24. Feng Yuh-siang, known as the “Christian General,” in a manifesto published in Pekin, defines his position. He praises Sun Yat Sen for having been the leader of revolutions, and pledges himself to r emulate him. Feng states that “while the Imperialistic Powers are strangling our national life by unequal treaties, Russia has voluntarily cancelled her’s. Should we refrain from entertaining warm and friendly feelings to the Soviet or should we curry favour with those who look upon us as slaves? The Soviets have undertaken the task of liberating weak, exploited races. We need not fear that they will do anything endangering our 1 interests. ’ ’
He denounces foreign settlements, and declares that he has returned from abroad to overthrow the Imperialists.— (A. and N.Z.)
