Mr. Sharbell came to Prince EdWB-rd 15131111 from his native country, Syria. in lhe early nineties of the last cen- tury and with his wife and child settled in Portage, which at mif- time was but a railway stop with only one or two houses surround- ed by scrub bush growing in swam- py soil. Nothing daunted by for- bidding surroundings. Mr. Silm-rbell settled down with his industrious isife to establish a business WhlCh was in time to grow into one of ihc most progressive on the Is- land, and which was to become the nucleus about which spread the progressive little villflle i-hfoillh which all traffic- from the east to the wcst of the Island must now pass, as there is but one road pos- Sible through the narrow neck of lend at a point where the island is almost. divided in two.

"THE TWO MRS. CARRQLLS" -

I lsees Dorner Turned

‘With Fall 0f MllIllIltn

James D. “White. Associated

Press News Analyst)

With the collapse oi Mukden, history turns another corner-—per- haps evcn more fateful than the turn ii took there in 1931.

The question is: What corner’? That will depend upon the future actions of Communist China, Na- tionalist China, the United States and the Soviet Union.

The Chinese {Iommunlsts now threaten to engulf everything south lo the Yangtze River. The main question facing lhcm is whether to stop at the Yangtze and join a coalition with the non-Communists or lo go on and try to subdue all Chino. In recent weeks they havc mentioned the coalition idcii. and in fact are reported to be ilickcr- ing in Harbin with dissident Na- tionalists. On the otherhand, their propaganda indicates they will deal with no one now in favor in Nan- king. Some months ago Commun- ist chairman Mao Tsc-Tuiig warned Chinese moderates that there no longer was any "middle wny" bc- tween Communism and capitalism.

Being in retreat, the Nationalist Government has the least chance of influencing the course of cvcnis. With the roof caving in on him. Chlang Kai-Shek is heckled in his own legislature and by Chinese in- tellectuals who previously have given him valuable support.

li lie cannot hold Nanking, he must move his capital to safer ter- ritory. That is assuming Ilf‘ will not be forced out by dlsscnsion in his own camp—a possibility mon- tioncd openly.

The United States retains poten- tial initiative in tho Chinese pic- turc. but even that has been cut down by Communist successes. Af- ter an extended effort to mediate the bitter Chinese dispute, tan ef- fort which Americans blame both Chinese sides for sabotaging) the United States has doled out sup- port to the Nanking Government, which has not put lt to decisirc use. The Communists have been quick to turn this‘ lo both their political and military advantage.

American strategic interest in China traditionally has been deter- mined partly by that of Russia. 1t must be realized in the United States that if the Chinese Commun- istl set up a rival "national" Chin- ese Government—whether on a coalition basis or not—the Russians will be strongly tempted to recog- nize it.

A ipecial meeting of the Surn- merside Y's Men's Club was held at the Orange Hall on Friday eve- ning when the Club acted as host to Roger Rand. Yer-mouth.
