BORAH TO PRESS FOR RECOGNITION OF SOWIET UNION Logicel Outcome of} Geneva Conference | WASHINGTON, May 26. — The|} miserable sham and cowardice of the} Goolidge-Kellogg government in its relations to Soviet Russia was never more clearly shown up than in the out- come of the international economic conference that has just been brought to a close at Geneva. This conference of economists, rep- resenting all the great nations of the world, after several weeks of inter- change of views and opinions .agreed upon a resolution the substancé of which means the recognition of Soviet Russia. The declaration proclaims that Soviet Russia is a going concern and as such is duly recognized by the capitalistic governments of the world. Kellogg’s Brain Contortions.

On this trip we came into close contact with the| work of reaction going on within the Kuomintang. Upon our arrival in Hankow on March 31, I was requested to put these experiences inte writing, which I did that same day. The doc- ument was published in Chinese, in the “Min Kuo Jih Pao,” a few days later. I quote from it: “At Nankan (March 17) we met the Kuomintang representative, Re- plying to our question, ‘Can you tell us anything about the neighboring districts,’ he answered: ‘I can tell you that at Kanchow conditions are very reactionary.’ He reiterated the news of the murder of Chen Tsan-yen, chairman of the Hankow General Trade Union, stated that he had worked in Kanchow and knew the conditions, that the reaction there controlled the Kuomintang District Committee, the Woman's Emancipa- tion League, the Buro of Education, and the Merchants’ Association, and also had a branch of the Narrow Na- tisnalists’ organization connected. with Shanghai, These forces had be- | come very aggressive since the arri- val of Li Pin (or, Ni Pi), Commis- sioner of the Provincial Kuomintang to the First Division stationed in Kay chow. The comrade who gave us the report concluded: ‘This act is a coup directed against the policy of Sun Yat Sen’.” ° Kanchow Union Destroyed. “We arrived at Kanchow the eve- ning of March 19, We were met by a delegation with banners, who sent cards to us on the boat. But unlike every other city to which we had come, there were no cards from the trade unions, but only from merchants’ | associations and’ local Kuomintang. We asked the acting magistrate and party representative to visit us on the boat; we told them the purposes of our delegation, and then expressed surprise that for the first time we were not met by representatives of all revolutionary organizations, the work- ers and peasants being absent here. In reply to our questions, we were informed that ‘There was formerly a General Trade Union here but it does not exist any more because it refused to register. The trade unions are not dissolved, but only transformed into preparatory organizations until they properly register’, After many ques- tions as to reasons for closing dewn the tradegunions, we were finally in- formed of the local official version of the killing of Chen Tsan-yen, which was, that the unions made excessive demands, therefore registration, was refused; ‘preparatory organizations’ have no right to make temands, col-| lect dues, or organize defense corps, but Chen refused to obey these rules; the magistrate asked Chen to come settle the dispute, a quarrel ensued, Chen threatened the magistrate with a revolver, whereupon an_ officer eritered and shot Chen; all this oc- cured on March 6th, This was the version of the acting magistrate and lets.

This is more than was purchased by the Soviets on the, American market, inthe entire Sept. 30, 1926, textile industry is ex- pending 80,000 on capital im- provements this year.

At Despite |the instance of Comrade Lenin he tried as early as 1921 to pursuade the Chinese communist group to. partici- pate in the national revolution. As: long as General Wu Pei-fu gave him- self out as a friend of the national }emancipation of China, Li-Taf-Chao maintained touch with him, but im- mediately Wu Pei-Fu commenced his reactionary activities, he was aban- doned by Li Tai-Chao.

The decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union with regard to the speech of comrade Zinoviev on the 9th of May in a non-Party meeting devoted to the press day and the 15th anni- versary of the foundation of the “Pravda,” has just been published: “In his speech comrade Zinoviev attacked the Central Committee of the C.P. of the U.S.S.R., its decisions and the “Pravda” The C.C. of the C.P. of the U.S.S.R. regards the at- titude ef comrade Zinoviev as a viola- tion of all the undertakings of the opposition including comrade Zino- viev, as impermissable and intolerable in*the ranks of the Bolsheviki. The C.C. has therefore decided to hand the matter over to the Central Con- trol Commission for examination.” * * ° MOSCOW, May 12.—The resolu- tions adopted by the Moscow and) Leningrad Committees of the C. P. of the U.S.S.R. with regard to the speech of comrade Zinoviev declare that the attitude of comrade Zinoviev makes for disorganization and is cal- culated to under-mine the confidence (By Mail)— of the proletarian masses in the C.C. of the C.P. of the U.S.S.R. and in the editorial board of the “Pravda.” Comrade Zinoviev who, declare the resolutions, speaks of the necessity for the maintenance of the unity in the ranks of the Party, is actually undermining tii: wnity. His action is a step towards the co.cmencement of a new struggle of the oppositional block against the majority in the most impermissible forms, questions concerning internal Party differences before non-Party workers tion from the Party. The resolutions demand that com- rade Zinoviev be ,punished for this Central Committee of the Party.

We were further informed | that two days previously, an election conference of the Kuomintang had) been held, from which the workers | and peasants had all been expelled, on the grounds that they were not) qualified ‘to participate in political matters.

They informed us that Chen had been arrested during a trade union meeting by soldiers, who stated that they were acting in the name of Marshal Chiang Kai- shek; the workers were afraid that danger threatened Chen and tried to follow to the magistrates office, but armed soldiers turned them back with a threat to fire upon them, The next morning Chen’s body was found with 18 bullets in it; a photograph of the body was shown to us, which showed the body completely riddled with bul- there, and again assume supremacy, is extremely interesting but belongs in another place. Here we wish first to get a picture of how reaction was at wofk within the Kuomintang it- self. “On March 25, evening, we arrived in Nanchang. On the 26th, Comrade Tom Mann and myself, on behalf of the delegation, visited the general headquarters of the National Army, and the Provincial’ Government, At the general headquarters we were re- ceived by General.Chang Chun very courteously; he expressed the sor- row of Marshal Chiang Kai-shek not to be able to meet us here, and in- vited the delegation to a banquet in in any other country; the Chinese revolution is not a part of the world revolution. Qn this point there are serious differences of opinion in the Kuomintang’.” “Strong Military Leader.” “At the Provincial Government we were met by the chairman of the executive committee, Mr. Li Lieh- chun, He also discussed with us the Chinese revolution, along the same lines as General Chang, with the ad- dition of saying that the differences of opinion within the party were about the ‘adjustment’ and ‘modifica- tion’ of the program of the Kuomin- tang necessary to ‘meet realities’; he also stated that the great need of the moment was a strong military leader.” “Tt must be added, that at the ban- quet that evening, both General Chang and Mr, Li spoke, and while not contradicting anything said in the morning interviews, their speeches were different in tone, being along the lines of welcoming the assistance of the world movement to the Chinese revolution.” Chiang, “The Strong Man”. “On March. 29, at Kiukiang, we were accompanied thruout our stay by an officer, local representative of general headquarters, whose name I have lost. Just before our boat left, he came on board to bring us a basket of fruit, for which we thanked him kindly. He then conversed with us for 20 minutes, being interpreted by Dr. Taipoo Chen of our company. The line of his igi 9 was: The first necessity of the inese revo- lution is to obtain military victory; in order to achieve this, a strong leader must be found who ean per- sonally hold the loyalty of the entire army; such a man is Marshal Chiang ‘ creases, and stated that all demands| fore heard in China, the most im- counsels.” | Now it had become clear what was | the political significance of the strug- | gle between Nanchang and Hankow over the location of the seat of gov- ernment. From Nanchang, the re- action could base. itself, first, upon its control of the provincial apparat- us, and from there, move to its sec- jond, and more fundamental base, | contact with the imperialist forces in | Shanghai and the Northern generals | with whom it was negotiating. Han- |kow (Wu-Huan cities), on the other hand, is the center of the most intense revolutionary spirit and organization, | |and already the location from which j was functioning the apparatus of the | Kuomintang government, which it was necessary for the reaction to dis- rupt. ¥ The magic of military glory sur- rounding the name of the commander- in-chief of the victorious revolutionary armies was relied upon to sway the masses Away from the leadership of the Central Kuomintang. Further, it was expected that again, as on March 20, 1926, military pressure would intimidate the central com- mittee, and cause it to submit, The strategy of reaction was the produc- tion of a Chinese Napoleon.
