S dle of May, when the real battle for Peking will begin. “I don’t know whether the campaign will last 10 days or three months,” B rodin told this correspondent. “The northern troops may collapse entirely, as they have often done in the past Winter, as the resalt of our intensive advance propaganda. If they do col- lapse, we will get the whole railway, but if they intend to fight we will be obliged to outfight them by a series of maneuvers with the Christian gen- eral's army and with ours.” Possesses Sense of Humor.

I previously had been convinced by a variety of evidence in Hankow that Borodin, with the Chinese Commun- THE EVENING STAR, 'WASHINGTON, D. €. SATURDAY, MAY 14, 1927.° tion. He debated long before replying definitely, s “You must know,” he observed, “that a straight republican Nationalist movement is impossible, or at l:ast ineffective, in China,” And then at last he said: “While I have never at- tempted to change the essentials of the Nationalist revolution, I have al- ways been convinced that it would never succeed unless it wa- made into an agrarian revolution—a thorough- going social economic move- ent. There are masses of Chinese peasants. They must be aroused. Another im- portant section of population is the workmen, and they must be aroused. The onlv iuethod by which peasants and workers can be aroused is revolu- tionary propaganda. “I see no necessity of such a step,” Borodin asserted. “While our finan- cial economic position is very sérious, it has often been just as bad or worce. Our greatest successes in Canton were accomplished when our revenue was almost nothing. “It is true we now control only one-: .If of the provinces and receive revenue from only one, but we never have had revenue from more than one prov: - at a time. No Chinese gov- ern.aent has revenue from more than one province at u time. “If we get Peking, we still will .ave r _.nue from only one province, or at the most two.

In conversation he ex- afi intellectual keenness and ac- rare in any political group, espe- ally among the revolutionaries. Unliv» most confirmed Bolshevists, Borodin possesses a sense of humor which guards him against the wild language and extravagant statements so common among Chinese radical leader T_cussing the split in the Kuomin- tang, he analyzed Chang Kai-Shek’s support as being, first, northern mili- tary divisions which have been ab- sorbed bodily into the Nanking army; second, the right wing of the Kuomin- 28. The prize will consist of a set of law books, donated by members of the faculty of National University. The contest is an annual affair, One contestant is chosen at each interclass debate.

AUSTIN, Tex. May 14.—Texas is far ahead of all other tes in its mule population with 1,073,000, Okla- homa is second with 365,000 and Mis- souri third with 358,000, will take years to centralize and re- form the masses. ‘While Chang Kai- Shek was with us he was a bottom- less chasm into which \.e poured the largest part of our revenue. That drain at least has been removed.” Borodin has no Ilusions whatever about the Chinese capacity for self- government. He said that the revolu- tion, while based p1. workers and peas- ants, must continue to be controlled by minority party leaders who can pursué their policy to the logical end. He has a higher opinion of the Chris- tian general than of a_.y other Chinese military leader. Borodin says that Feng Yu Hsiang is far more trust- worthy than Chang Kai-Shek because he believes in the social economic Base Fight on Workers. “We base our whole revolution on the peasants and workers. Without these classes no Nationalist revolution could take place in China. Our labor policy is based on these essential con- cepts of revolutionary technique, and it has been eminently successful, as the British in Hongkong discovereds. “Sun Yat Sen realized this in 1924, when the first congress of the mew Kuomintang _under his leadership enunciated _ princinles destined to transform the movement into a social economic_revolution.” T asked whether economic financial pressure and military reverses might not toreia th; Hankow government to glve up its effort to maintain the pres- ent regsme1 and revert to the tactics ';‘é:‘j:‘“';‘f""w S SRR of the ordinary political party with-| (Cperight. 1027 in United States.

Borodin agreed that tHis, in part, was true. “Naturally, if we reached Peking together,” he said, “the right wing would assume control, having absorbed all the Peking reactionary groups. But I must insist that I tried hard to postpone the break as long as possi- ble. However, now_it has happened, I don't regret it. We have clarified the issues immensely, and our revolu- tion is henceforth unimpeded by reac- tionary elements.” I asked him point-blank whether he had not attempted during the past two years to transform the Kuomintang from a straight republican Nationalist movement into a Communist revolu- By the Associated Press.
