Lives of Chang Chiang Contrasted / Kai-Shek Began Life Obscurely While Enemy Was Raised in Luxury (Glenn Babb, former Associated Press correspondent in the Far East who has returned to New York, gives below an intimate de- scription of the personal element in today’s Chinese crisis.) By GLENN BABB New York, Dec. 18.—(?)—The lives, of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek and Marshal Chang Hsueh-Liang, principal characters in the tragic drama being enacted on the politico- military stage of China, offer strik- ing contrasts and parallels. General Chiang began life in ob- scurity and has worked his way to the loftiest eminence in Chinese life. Marshal Chang began his public career as the pampered heir of the mightiest Chinese warlord of his gen- eration, old Chang Tso-Lin, ruler of Manchuria, and has slipped in power. Temporarily these trends have been reversed, for Chiang, the General- issimo of Nanking, is the prisoner at Sianfu of Chang, in danger of his life if not already dead, as.many of his followers fear. Abjures Dissipation Chiang Kai-Shek is almost an ascetic, living a Spartan life, work- ing 14 to 18 hours a day. He does not know how to play. He abjures dissipation of all forms. His captor, Marshal Chang, has no such Spartan leanings. His head- quarters, always has been like the court @f an eastern monarch. He 4s an inveterate gambler at poker and mahjong. Chang Hsueh-Liang always has en- jyed the company of occidentals. Many of his closest friends and ad- visers, especially before the Japanese wrested his Manchurian domains from him, were American, British, French or Russian. Generalissimo Chiang has had few foreign contacts. He sees the western world largely through the eyes of his Wellesley alumna wife, the former Mei-Ling Soong, who serves as in- terpreter between her husband and the world beyond the China seas. Chiang Is Methodist General Chiang is a Methodist, probably because of the influence of his wife, the youngest of three daugh- ters reared by a devout Chinese lay worker in the Methodist church. ‘As for parallels, both Chiang and Chang have resorted more than once to those startling changes of front and personal relationships so char- acteristic of Chinese politics. Each has fought Communism and each has flirted with the red cause for his own purposes.” Chiang Kai-Shek, who owes much of his brilliant career to a Moscow training and the support of powerful Russian Communist advisers at Can- ton, today is an arch foe of the red doctrines in China. Neither has shrunk from ruthless shedding of blood when he deemed it necessary to advance his cause. When General Chiang, having captured Shanghai and Nanking with help from Communist advisers, early in 1927 decided the reds threatened the unity of the nationalist movement, he “purged” the revolutionary party with a thoroughness that cost many Chinese Communists their heads.
