Extremism
Eight college-educated young Chinawomen, serious, zealous, patriotic, paraded solemnly down the bund or riverside at Hankow, Nationalist capital, last week. The tallest walked first, carrying a placard atop a bamboo pole, and wearing only large shell-rimmed glasses. The seven others, were more scantily clad. The placard read:
Emancipate yourselves!
We Have Won Freedom From
Christian Shame!
Win Freedom for China From
The Christian Powers!
Occidentals thought that Chiang Kaishek, who impeached the entire so-called "Red" Government of Hankow, last week (see below), will do his best to discourage further extremism among Chinese students.
