SOVIET AND CHINA.
DOCUMENTS WHICH PROVE PROPAGANDA.
· FANNING DISCONTENT.'
Soviet Russia-prints a newB- paper in Shanghai called the New Shanghai Lifo. It would be instruotivo for the historlan of recent events in China to look) through the files of this paper. Here he would probably find the best record, extant, of the aims and aspirations of Moscow in China, writes the Shanghai cor- raspondent of the New York | Evening News.
During tho poriod of violence in Shanghai and other cities im- modiately following the riots of May 30, this Soviet mouthpiece) exultantly predicted that a pro- totarian revolution had finally) come to China. Congratulations wore extended to the "brother. workers of China," who were about to throw off, the yoke of
foreign Imperialism."
But in the few days following; as it became increasingly ap parent that the more moderato elements had prevailed in China, and that therb would be no ex- tensive violence, the tone of tho editorials in the New Shanghai Life gradually changed. Thoro was no future talk of a revolu. tion, but the editor's entire atten- tion was given to expatiating upon the golden opportunity which lay before China of im mediately and summarily abrog | ating the "unequal treaties.
*MOSCOW WANTS CONFUSIQN.
According to the best available information, this newspaper has accurately reflected Soviot policy in China. Moscow hopos for a revolution. But it is now con vinced that China is not ready for a revolution, and is devoting her entire efforts to persuading China to abrogate all existing treaties with Wostorn nations, thus throw- ing the country into an utter con- fusion which would best serve her ends. The present situation suits her very well. It has come far sooner than she had hoped. The Criminal Intelligence Do- partment of the Shanghai Muni- cipal Council has a great pile of documents revealing Soviet parti- cipation in the disturbances in Shanghai and other parts of China. It is unnecessary to cite. them in dotail, because the Soviet) Governinent does not trouble to Ideny what they show,
Moscow has been pending money freely in China for soveral years, as the State Department at Washington and the Foreign Offices of other Powers have been repeatedly informed. That money has gone largely to two classes, labourers and students.
The labourers in the modern factories of China have good reason to be discontented' with their lot. The ancient guild. system has proved itself well- suited to modern conditions in miany other classes of employ- mont, but no` guild has yet been formed for modern industrial workers. As a result, they have often been cruelly exploited, both by Chinese and foreign employers. It was cusy for Moscow agents to turn their discontent against Ithe * Imperialistic" Powers, although conditions in Chinese mills and factories have always been worse than in those operated by foreigners, and the gradual improvements mado recently have all originated in "foreign mills.
LAY TROUBLES TO FOREIGNERS. Among the labourere, no Jattempt was made to inculcate the
doctrines of Communien.
But the work among the stud- ents was conducted on different lines. In the schools Moscow made a real attempt to preach world revolution and to teach the theories of Soviet doctrine. The students of China have bo- come increasingly discontended, conditions in their country yearly limiting their opportunities as disorders spread. Moscow has mado skillful use of this dis- content in China as in other parts Jof the world.
So the situation in China places Moscow in a position where it can exploit to the greatest pos- sible advantage the fact that Russia is the only great nation which has "voluntarily" TG- nounced her treaty rights.
