Feng Yu-hsiang, the Chinese Christian General, has reached the end

of his wavering and has joined definitely with Chiang Kai-shek, the leader of the moderate Nationalists. Moscow is lamenting Feng's " treachery." Chang Tso-lin, the Manchurian War Lord, who is now Dictator at Peking, hasissued a circular telegram denounc- ing the Communists. Altogether is looks as though the Communists are already in for the bad time which the well-known individualism of the Chinese always made inevitable. With a moderate Nationalism in the ascendant it ought not to be difficult to revise the Treaties.
