China Rising
June 17, 1925 issue

add to cart   close window

The "outbreak" in China has been handled by the Powers in the most shameless western manner. Shanghai Chinese struck against what they considered inhuman conditions in Japanese-owned factories, 150,000 persons going out either directly or out of sympathy. There lies the great Chinese paradox: China's Weakness is her strength. The total disintegration of central authority is her best protection from Western aggression. Given a compactly organized country, with strong national authority resident in one capital and it would be easy to get control of the entire country by seizing its national headquarters and compelling the governmental machinery to continue to work.
