THE CHINA MAIL, JULY 24, 1989
INTENSIFICATION OF ANTI-BRITISH CAMPAIGN MARKED IN CANTON
Canton, To-day.
The anti-British campaign being conducted by the
local Chinese press is being intensified daily. This is all the more surprising, as the Japanese au- thorities "have definitely banned all anti-Bri- tish demonstrations and parades."
England is now described by the Chinese Press as "the representative of White Imperialism and particularly the enemy of the Yellow Race in Asia."
Prominence is given to a violent; article in a recent issue of a ver- nacular paper in which it urged: the populace" to fight for our free- dom, as otherwise we will be the slaves of England.”
The paper declares that "Eng- land is very anxious to take Tibet and to force that country to declare its independence."
The article accuses Sir
Leith Ross of advising the Chinese Gov- ernment's revision of its currency so that "England could have the advantage of taking all the silver in China," and continues by stat- ing that "Japan is getting stronger day by day and England will lose her interest in China. England, therefore, helps Chiang Kai-shek to prolong the war."
"NOW IS THE TIME”
to
The article finally urges China and Japan to stand together take "revenge" and asserts "now is the time."

are
The foregoing sentiments causing more amusement than con- cern among the British commun- ity. There is, however, a distinct danger that such propaganda may eventually affect the unenlightened section of the Chinese populace.- Reuter.
