...

Canton, the city of South China which has been the centre of revolutioriary movements in China In recent years and has passed through many politics) upheavals including the Communist uprising in 1927 when thousands lost their lives in street fighting. is facing today an attack which makes all of the previous troubles of this öld city seem small in comparison. It is today a city driven by one great, overwhelming fear, the fear of death or suffering from the bombs which Japanese planes have been dropping not only upon far- |tories, which might be called milltary objectives, but on residences and on business houses, writes Mr. E. H. Lockwood, allocated by the International Committee of the YMCA to help in the development of the work of the Association in Canton, Mr. Lockwood is a resident of Chicago, Illinois, and a son-in-law of Mr. Lew H.
