Feng-Kuo-Chang’s as Vice Presidency Indicative to Harmony, (Correspondence of the Associated Press) Peking, Nov. 14—Feng Kuo-chang's election to the vice presidency is re- garded as a vital step in the effort to harmonize Chinese Dpolitics. Three ballots in parliament were necessary. Feng Kuo-chang was the leader in all and on the third ballot he received 520 votes, while his nearest compet- itor, Lu Yung-ting, received only 201 votes, The election was in striking con- trast to the election of Yuan Shi-kai to the presidency in 1913. At that time heavy military guards were placed all about the house of parlia- ment, and there was great apprehen- sion lest there be a riot. The guards were lacking at Feng Kuo-chang's election, and parliament showed no disorder whatever. Feng Kuo-chang is not a partisan. He has nrever himself formally with any but has constantly remained as a sort of a middleman formally and the south, guarding . tse Valley with his large garrison at Nanking. He is primarily a military decided identified faction, the Lang- the north | litical acumen, and, unlike many of the military leaders in China, is a man highly educated in the Chinese classies and a polished gentleman of wide travel and experience. There is much speculation now as to whether Feng Kuo-chang will im- mediately come to Peking and assume his duties as vice president. He showed unwillingness for some time to allow his name to be considered dency, but finally consented. As military governor of Kiangsu Province, of which Nanking is the chief strategic center, he has greater power than the vice dential office will afford him. Feng Kuo-chang'’s location at Nan- king, which commands the lower reaches of the Yang-tse river, as well as the railway connecting Peking and Shanghai, is one of the most vital po- far presi- man, but has shown considerable po- |in:connection with the vice presi- |sitlons in China. His power as com- mander at Nanking has given him great prestige, and made him so in- dependent that he frequently paid no attention in the past to orders issued by the central government. Recent- ly, he, as well as practically all the other generals, cxcepting General Chang Hsun, have shown a disposi- tion to heed the central government and enable China to harmonize its jmterior troubles.
