CHANG CANNOT SELL CHINESE TO THE BRITISH
Treason Will Fail Says Soviet Organ

(Special to The Daily Worker)

MOSCOW, (By Tass)—Commenting editorially on the last shooting at Tientsin the Izvestia interprets it as an endeavor of Chang Tso-lin to prove his ability to establish order in China and create a government that would be acceptable and desirable to the great powers.

The Moscow leading organ considers, however, that Marshal Chang's plans are unrealizable. The majority of the Chinese bourgeoisie is still in favor of persevering in the anti-imperialist struggle. A bloc is quite possible between the Chinese working and peasant masses and petty bourgeoisie against Chang Tso-lin, in whom on the other hand, America has no faith, as she looks upon him as a pro-Japanese agent.

The present movement against foreign capitalism in China, the Izvestia concludes, is at the same time a struggle for creating a truly national all-Chinese government capable also of freeing the country from native warlords and, generally, militarism.

Event Details

Izvestia interprets the last shooting at Tientsin as Chang Tso-lin's endeavor to prove ability to establish order in China and create a government acceptable to great powers. However, his plans are unrealizable as Chinese bourgeoisie favors anti-imperialist struggle, with possible bloc of workers, peasants, and petty bourgeoisie against him. America distrusts him as pro-Japanese. The movement against foreign capitalism seeks a national government free from warlords and militarism.
