Feng said he regarded the United States as China's oldest friend, though he added it is doing nothing toward solving the present difficulties. e | declared China expected America to | abolish unequal treaties without con- sulting other powers and without | seeking unfalr advantages by diplo-| macy. | Feng dresses like a common soldier | and eats the same food. Even ele- mentary comfort has been banished from the palace he occuples, and he requires everybody to arise at 5/ o'clock. At that hour he prays, then| delivers a sermon to soldiers or gen- darmerie. What China in general does not sus- pect is the small number of Feng’s troops. 1 estimate his maximum strength as about 50,000. This is the smallest army of any faction, and forces Feng to operate in alliance with somebody if he intends to get beyond Honan.
