U.S. Accused
By Red China
Of Invasion
By DAVE• COLTON
"Since the United, States im
perialists launched the war in Ko
rea last June, the air force which
they us e to invade Korea has
many times ,invaded China's terri
torial air in the northeast, slaugh
tered Chinese people and de
stroyed Chinese property with
bombs.
"Their navy invading Korea
has bombarded Chinese merchant
shipping on the high seas and
violated China's rights of naviga
tion. The United States imperial
ists are copying • the old trick of
the Japanese bandits; first, invad
ing Korea and then invading
China."
These are excerpts from the
Aug. 1, 1950 edition of Peoples
China, communist magazine pub
lished in Peking, China. This edi
tion and others were brought to
the campus by Dr. Paul V. Taylor,
until 1950, professor of education
at Huachung university, China,
who was one of the Religion-in-
Life speakers.
Communist Magazine
Peoples China is published by
the Foreign Languages Press. The
subscription list includes rates-for
the U.S.S.R., India, United States
and Canada, United Kingdom, and
Hong Kong.
One frpnt page editorial said:
"The main- objective of United
States aggression in Korea is not
Korea itself, but China. Through
out the country, the Chinese peo
ple are enthusiastically volunteer
ing to resist American aggression,
aid Korea, protect their homes,
and defend their country."
These editorials and other stor
ies show what the United States
is facing in the line of communist
propaganda, Taylor said. The
Chinese formerly had an empire,
and still possess dreams of an
other empire, 'Taylor commented.
The Chinese regard Korea, For
mosa (Taiwan) and Indo-China as
their responsibilities, and there
fore he believes the Chinese will
defend Korea to the last.
Nations Compared
Taylor compared China's opin
ion on Korea to the United States
relations with Canada. Fie said
the U. S. won't want foreign peo
ple who speak a different lan
guage as neighbors. With their
propaganda barrage the Russians
are taking advantage of this feel-
ing among the Chinese.
Although he would not give a
definite answer, Taylor hinted
that Korea can never be perman
ently separated. North Korea has
industrial power which the south
needs, and South Korea has agri
cultural products which the north
needs, he said. The people also
are too much alike and have too
much common loyalty to be sepa
rated, he added.
