'Nanking, June 20.

The veteran Chinese statesman, son of the founder of modern China, who once was an ardent proponent of Chinese-Russian collaboration, bluntly accused Russin of directly supporting the Chinese Communist armies, which have already gained control of "85 percent of the vast Manchurian domain" and which tonight were reported to have entered the strategic city of Szepingkal, on the rail. way between Dairen and Changchun, During the course of a long conversation with this corres- pondent, Dr Sun made these points:
