Fullest publicity should be given wherever possible to the startling series of blows delivered by the Nationalists at the Communist in China.
Having heard, on the one hand, of outrages on British and other foreigners in China by moba instigated by Soviet agita- tors, friends at Home will be very pleased to hear all about the sensational new turn in developments.
Persecution of foreigners continued this week. Reports of such occurrences will make interesting reading side by side with the connected narratives published daily and reproduced in the "Overland China Mail."
For a complete and connected description of the coup in Canton, the "Overland" will sunt all requirements.
