FA E ASIA GIANT CLIMBING BACK ON FEET READY TO DEFEND COUNTRY China No Longer Willing to Re- main Colonial Doormat of Foreign Nations SUN’S WORK BEARING FRUIT Japs Watch With Undisguised Misgivings as Neighbors Gird to Battle (By the Associated Press) China, for 150 years a sprawling giant whose body was the battle- ground of trade rivalries of the world’s powers, is getting to her feet and girding to hit back. e No longer will she turn the other cheek, spokesmen in Nanking politely intimate. The work of Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, “father” of the Chinese republic, is slowly bearing fruit. It was his dream that the nation could escape being “a colony of every great power.” This spirit of nationalism, with Japan slowly occupying North China, has never been so keen as in the grave crisis of today. . Established Three Principles Springfield, ‘N. J., June 6.—(?)— the fourth and decisive round of the United States open golf, championship Saturday with a two- stroke lead, the title as well as a new record seemingly in his grasp, “Light- horse Harry” Cooper of Chicago elec- Dr. Sun established three main principles for the Kuomintang, or peoples party, which is the govern- ment and only recognized party. They are, roughly: 1, Nationalism (national emanci- pation and racial equality). 2. Democracy (political rights for the people). : 3. Socialism (economic rights for the peasants and workers.. The national republic founded by Dr. Sun is still loosely bound. One factor which constantly has contributed to the disunity of China|, is the traditional rivalry between North and South China. Kwangsi. ‘and Kwangtung, which make up South China, have long con- sidered themselves almost distinct from North China. Thus far, China has replied to Japan’s movements in North China only with protests, But air bases and Shelters are being rushed to com- pletion, trenches are being dug and military instruction given generally. Japs Watch Worriedly Japanese observers are watching with undisguised misgivings Gen- eralissimo Chiang Kai-Shek's efforts to strengthen his military machine. Chiang is reported able to throw an army of 500,000 or possibly larger into the field. Nanking is looking both to the north at Japanese garrisons and to the south, where Canton troops are reported moving northward to war on Japan, Her armies may have to move either way. Japan is virtually dependent upon the United States for her huge and steadily growing demand for raw cot- ton. She could shake this depena- ence if she took over Shangtung and Hopei provinces. Foreign observers say China will fight if Japan goes south of the Yellow river. Education Proposed To Combat U. . S.
