over the Pekin army. Radicals in the
nationalist party incited the natives
against the foreigners, and the mili-

Of course, such a policy is no morej
advantageous to China than it is to
the foreigners affected. As long as
the Cantonese government cannot
maintain law and order in the terri-
tory under its control, it will not re-
ceive the desired recognition of world
powers. If it continues these tactics,
however, mob violence will probably
be carried into all the localities oc-
cupied by foreigners, since the suc-
cess of the Cantonese advance next
spring is generally conceded. In fact,
it is reported that the Cantonese
headquarters is now preparing for a
drive on Shanghai.
Und or such circunistances, the most
effective means to safeguard the lives
of American nationals should be de-

at Iiankow and Foochow are in pros-
pect, the government should either
warn its citizens to withdraw well in
advance of the Cantonese forces, or it
should adequaely defend the settle-
ments in which they are located.
