Young China's Task to Fight Militarism and Imperialism
THE DAY OF YOUTH.
of
Young workers, peasants and students are always the most active elements of a revolutionary movement. They are full of spirit, hardihood and capacity for self-sacrifice in the cause idealism. This may be proved by many examples from the revolutionary history of every country both
of the Occident and the Orient. We need only recall the movement of the students, directed against Japan in 1919,---over the infamous Twenty-one Demands and Shantung---and the latest movement of the students in protest against the massacres of the Imperialists in Shanghai, Canton, Hankow, etc. when the young men were always in the forefront. They press forward into the struggle and carry along their fathers. Our youth have only to be organised and then they will represent irresistible power.

A British Liberal Paper's Comment. London, August 1. (by Manchester Guardian" commenting on the situation in China says: **The influence of the Bolsheviks in China is the result of the fact that Russia renounced ex- traterritoriality and that the Bolsheviks take into account the
changing psychology in China during recent years. The Bolshe- viks live in the present time while the British imagine that they are still in the Boxers time.
