? Eugene Chen's sudden appearance
In Canton and the announoement of

fiave given rise to much speculation

l China does not feel natural with-
put a southern movement. Canton Is
the great culture ground for revolu-
ronary movements.
With the precedent set by Sun Yat
fien and the literary skill of Eugene
Chen at Its disposal, the newest rev
olutionary government la expected to
j$ry the same tactics which were so
successful in 1&28-28, resulting In the
establishment of the present regime
In Nanking.
In that movement a group organ
ised at Canton, with the aid of Boro
din and other Russian Soviet lead
en, stubbornly fought Its way across
country to Hankow, where It upset
the authority of the Peking govern
Jnent. seized tne Hankow British con-
Session and moved triumphantly
Idown the Yarjrtse.
t:- Eugene Chen was the minister of
'foreign affairs when the southerners,
With their Kussian. allies, took over
the Hankow concession. That was the
greatest acmevemcab ox cugene ne s
lite. It was the first time in recent
history that a Chinese official had
been able to take hack by force ter
fltory which was actually ln the
bands of a major foreign power.

J Chen probably ls the best known
Chinese journalist.
V He was born In' Trinidad of Chinese
parents 63 years ago. He waa admitted
to the bar ln England and practiced
law a number of years .1 the West
Indies. In 1013 he went to China.

f. Two years later he became editor
of -the Peking Oazette and Instantly
attracted attention by. his . attacks
Upon Japanese negotiations. Ho was
mprtsoned In Peking and when re

became associated with Sun Tat-Ben
and other southern leaders.
i; He went to the United Btotea In
1017 as a member of a military mis
slon representing the southern move

conference as a member of a dele

He later established another paper

at Canton and worked with It from

Chen's marvelous command of Ox

with which he uses it have brought
him. into international prominence.
