A QUICK-LUNCH COUNTER IN PEKING 



The genial smile of this sidewalk Boniface is a business asset of much account. Note the 

 "steam table" in the foreground and the chef busy over the caldron in the background. 



Shao-vi, and Wu Ting-fang, sided with 

 the Kuang-tung Party and participated 

 in the government which it set up at 

 Canton. 



In the spring of 1920 it was evident 

 that there had been a split, however. 

 Sun Yat-sen, T'ang Shao-vi. and Wu 

 Ting-fang severed their connections with 

 the Kuang-tung faction and took with 

 them one of their military leaders. Tang 

 Chi-yao. As already indicated, there had 

 been a split in the Pei Vang Party, be- 

 tween the Chihli faction and the Anfu 

 faction. 



Tilt: VI AX DARIN ATI- STILL IN CONTROL 



When the final struggle against Tuan 

 Ch'i-jui came there were not lacking evi- 

 dences of a joining of forces among 

 T'ang Chi-yao (of the Kuang-tung fac- 

 tion), the leaders of the new generation 

 ( Sun Yat-sen. Wu Ting-fang. Tang 

 shao-vi ) . and the Anfu clique, against 

 which formerly they had been violently 

 opposed. 



An understanding seems also to have 

 been reached between the main section 

 of the Kuang-tung faction and the Chihli 

 faction. This latter combination was not 

 only the more natural of the two. based 

 as it was upon the common interests of 

 the two factions of the mandarinate for 

 self-preservation, but it was the more 

 powerful, as it drew to its banner all of 

 the neutral elements, such as the Yangtze 

 league of governors and Chang Tso-lin. 

 military governor of Manchuria. In a 

 few days it had forced Tuan Ch'i-jui to 

 vield his power and give up his soldiers. 

 The Anfu Club was abolished and its 

 members dispersed. 



The situation has not changed mate- 

 rially during the last few months. It has 

 been proved that even in China an ele- 

 ment cannot survive long on alien sup- 

 port, as the Anfu clicpte tried to do. The 

 party in control is still the mandarinate. 

 and there is still an opposition, composed 

 of a new generation of students and 

 young men.
