ONE-SIXTH of China is far from one-sixth of the globe. None the less it is a vast territory. One-sixth of China is occupied by the “stable” (i.e., consolidated) Soviet districts of the Chinese Soviet Republic. The area of France is equal to only 88.6 per cent. of the territory of Soviet China. The area of Germany is equal to 65.9 per cent., of Japan (without colonies) 61 per cent., of Great Britain (without colonies) 23 per cent. of this extensive Soviet territory. The Central District of the Chinese Soviet Republic alone is twice the size of Holland and Belgium taken together. The young Chinese Republic of Soviets must be regarded as quite a sizeable state not only in the light of these comparisons with European countries, but also when compared with whole continents. The “stable” and “unstable” districts of the Soviet government constitute no less than one-fourth of China.
