216 It is interesting to note that the Kuomintang is to a certain degree democratic in representing the various occupational groups in China. Tyau, cited above, p. 25 and following, lists the percentages in the membership in the Kuomintang according to occupation, as they stood in 1930: Party work, 5.84%; government service, 6.61%; army and navy, 3.26%; police, 4.09%; labor (in general), 7.32%; agriculture, 10.43%; navigation, 1.20%; railway, 1.14%; commerce, 10.47%; students, 10.47%; teaching, 21.31%; independent professions, 1.66%; social work, 1.68%; unemployed, O.54%; unclassified, 3.13%; incomplete returns, 15.09%. 217 See above, pp. 59 and following. 218 Sun Yat-sen, _Kidnapped in London_, cited, _passim_. 219 d’Elia translation, cited, pp. 122-123. 220 The present instances are all taken from the third lecture on nationalism, d’Elia translation, cited pp. 127-128. The Hsü translation, in spite of its many merits, is not strong on geography. Thus, in the translation referring to Poland which has just been cited, the Hsü reading runs: “Although Persia was partitioned by foreigners over a century ago, Persian nationalism was not lost; consequently the Persians have been able to restore their country to independence; and now Persia has the status of a second or third class power in Europe” (p. 208), this in spite of the fact that Persia is translated correctly further on (p. 327). Another misreading is: “After the war, two new Slavic states were born, namely Czechoslovakia and Jugoslovakia” (p. 217). These minor errors are, however, among the very few which can be discovered in the whole book, and do not mar the text to any appreciable extent. 221 d’Elia translation, cited, p. 132. 222 d’Elia translation, cited, p. 63. 223 T’ang, cited, pp. 168 and following, gives the various documents of the First National Congress of the Kuomintang, which place the application of nationalism first in their programs. “The Manifesto On Going to Peking,” issued by Sun November 10, 1924, refers to various points to be achieved; the first is, “National freedom from external restriction will enable China to develop her national economy and to increase her productivity.” (Hsü translation, p. 148.) This might imply that the execution of _min shêng_ was to be coincidental with or anterior to the fulfillment of nationalism; it probably does not. 224 d’Elia translation, cited, p. 187. 225 Discussions of this are to be found in Sir Reginald Johnston’s _Twilight in the Forbidden City_, cited. 226 d’Elia translation, cited, p. 244. 227 d’Elia translation, cited, pp. 245-247. 228 d’Elia translation, cited, p. 187.
