Mr. Sun Fe answered- "the Russians have no power of any kind." Sun Chuan-fang nod- ded and sald: "If you allow Buch liberties to the Russians in Canton, and access to Governmental affairs, you must expect criticism and sus plelon from the people. The Throe Peoples' Doctrine of the Into Dr. Sun Yat Sen is excellent: why doesn't the Nationalist Government put it int practice and make it a model for the other provinces to fellow ?!

Questioned with regard to the object of his mission, Sun Fo Bald:

The Nationalist" Government intends to give inllitary assistance; to Hunan, and in doing so, our Brining need to march into Klangsi, which territory is under your sphere of influence. My mission, therefore, is to convince you of the nrecarity of allowing our armies to carry on military operations in that province."" Sun Chuan-fang" replied:Before going any fur- ther with your mission, I would like to ask you this question: What are the political aspirations of the Nationalist Government?" To this Sun Fo Ansivered:-"To protect territory and bring peace and or-f der to the people?”.

Sun Chuan-fang then sald "If that is the aspiration of the Nationalist Government, why dogs it desire to encroach upon the ter ritory of others? Your statement is self-contradictory, and my ad- vice to Kwangtung is that it would by better to let others alone, and ench to devote its entire attention to the betterment of the conditions of the people over whom they rule; otherwise the day that! Kwangtung sends an expedition against the North will be the bugle call for my armies to march southward against Bolshevism. I shall be pleased if you'would tran- smit this, my reply, to your Go- vernmont."

The result of this interview is stated to have hastened the ret- turn of Sun, Fo to Canton.

KNOCK THE MAN DOWN.

Sir Henry Gollan:-Could he knock the man down and take the rent out of his pocket?:

Mr. Potter: Emphatically not. Sir Henry Would the land- lord be responsible if he did?

Mr. Potter:-No. Are we to assume that his employment is such as to carry with it the Im- plied right to do something which the landlord himself cannot do?

He pointed the strength of the absolute illegality of the act of the rent collector; in that he not only attempted to levy distress unlawfully, but did B0 between the hours of 9 p.m. and 10 p.m. when the law expressly forbids

Mr. Potter quoted from a case; in which the learned judge said that the responsibility in law of master for his servant's, act. was carried very far indeed, and that if he had to ennet alw upon the subject he doubted whether he would be disposed to carry it so far.

Sir Henry Gollan:--It doesn't matter. I asked only to satisfy my own priosity.
