It is there we have the mob"(quoted in Richard Lowitt,George W.Norris:The Making of a Progressive,1861—1912[Syracuse:Syracuse University Press,1963],203);father to ES,December 4,1933,father to Howard

autopsy and medical records attributed Snow's mother's death specifically to a postoperative infection in the abdomen and urinary tract(Robert M.Farnsworth,ed,.Edgar Snow's Journey South of the Clouds[Columbia:University of Missouri Press,1991],introduction,11),which did not necessarily resolve the matter of neglect or incompetence on the part of the hospital staff. 　　(21) ES to

mention of these meetings.In an earlier account,Alley noted that while he and some student volunteers were digging telephone postholes in Saratsi,Snow came by in the company of O.J.Todd.But Alley

accord,despite its failure appreciably to advance the inde-pendence cause,as an historic breakthrough,in that the viceroy had negotiated with the Indian leader as an equal and gained him worldwide attention both in India and the world."“The psycho1ogical impact on an enslaved nation was ex-traordinary"(Akbar,Nehru,233;also Shirer,Gandhi,55).Vincent Sheean,who became an ardent disciple of

Chiang,a line Mao regarded as unrealistic,in the face of the Generalissimo's demand for the virtual surrender of the Communists as the price for ending civil war(ibid.,53—54). 　　⑩ Agnes Smedley's

considered Mao"deficien"in Marx-ism-Leninism and lacking a truly"internationalist"outlook(Warren Kuo,Ana-lytical History of the Chinese Communist Party[Taipei:Institute of International Relations,1970],Bk.3,328).Voice of China,a Communist-Sponsored periodical published in Shanghai between March 1936 and November 1937,reflected the Moscow line on China:the push for united anti-Japanese resistance under a de-mocratized Nanking government led by Chiang.It opposed anti-Chiang in-ternecine conflicts(including the Xi'an Incident)as aiding and abetting the Japanese and virtually ignored the activities of the Reds in the northwest.The journal was edited by Max(Manny)Granich and his wife,Grace,sent to Shang-hai for that purpose by the American Communist party(Alley,At 90,82).Before they left for China,the Communist party leader Earl Browder cautioned them not to"Waste their ammunition"in attacks on the Chiang regime,but to"keep your attention on Japanese imperialism"(Grace Granich,Autobiograpical Typescript[1970—1971],4,Grace and Max Granich Papers).Grace Granich's manuscript remained incomplete at her death in 1971.Bret Taube,the late Max Granich's friend,made a full run of Voice of China available to me. 　　(14) ES to L.M.MacBride,April 19,1936,June 1,1936,December 6,1936 "Statement of Expenses on Trip to the Chinese Soviet Areas,"February

was the prime factor.Fearing they would never get back home again,they"some-times ask for leave but often take up their blanket and bowl and start over the narrow trails on foot."Brought back,they were subjected to intensive doses of "education,"to understand that they had committed a crime under Red Armg military law.More serious problems stemmed from infiltrators in border parti-san units

has noth-ing to fear from the National Communists who now offer the masses little more than he does"(ibid.,103).This was another indirect Snow barb at the "capitula-tionist"CCP line. 　　(31) Diaries,Book 20,July 29,30,1937.In Battle for Aisa,or BFA(New York:Random House,1941),completed after more than three years of the China war,Snow dealt much more charitably with General Song(viewing him now as a wily fox who had managed to stall off the Japanese in northern China for a num-ber of years)and put a positive spin on the massacre Song's troops suffered on the outskirts of Peking before the city's surrender.These sacrifices"had not been entirely futile,"Snow wrote;they had stiffened"the maturing will of the nation,and made further appeasement by Nanking out of the question"(BFA,21). 　　(32) Snow's version of this incident(in BFA,23;and JTTB,189,in which he perhaps embellished Deng's amah role-palying["She dropped her jaw in an idi- otic grin at the sullen Japanese"]) was later denied by Deng,who claimed Snow "remembered it wrong"(interview with Lois Wheeler Snow,June 5,1987).Bertram confirms Snow's Story,"The fact was that she did travel with us.on the

Comintern,Russia,and any and all'controversial'matters was omitted"(RNORC,3).In the preface to the Modern Library edition of RSOC,Snow elaborated on his brief diary entry on the Smolensk partisan fighter.He referred to three girls he spoke to from a guer-rilla unit who told him," ‘We got some ideas from a book called Red Star Over China,'they said—not knowing who I was"(ix).Of course,they

unified or powerful enough as an organization,nor by itself persuasive enough as an idea,to bind together two hostile forces,the controlling KMT right-wing and the Communists ,whose social and

San Francisco in the spring of 1945.Senior Communist party leader Dong Biwu told Hicks that though the CIC"had been good at the beginning,"it had come under the control of the Kuo-mintang and could do very little.Monies raised in America,he added,did not reach cooperatives in the field,According to an October 1939 report by the Yan'an CIC office,"there are 137 productive cooperatives organized by the Construction Department of the Government,in addition to the 15 C.I.C.s...these 137 cooperatives are to be incorporated into the C.I.C.units"(report cited in NW,"Notes on CIC,77).Snow's assertion in JTTB (233)that"By 1942 the Yenan depot came to be much the largest regional headquarters in the country,with as many workers as all the others in China combined,"would seem to reflect the fact that, 　　according to the above report,"the number of members in the government cooperatives reached28,000"be-fore becoming part of CIC,Peter Schran,in his study of the border,region's wartime economy,notes that CIC membership"did not assume large propor-tions."Finanical support from outside decreased sharply by 1941;during the 1939—1943 years,the border region government supplied 88

leadership which have brought China's revolutionary achievements into brilliant illumination of the world"(ES to Mao,December[no day],1971,Beijing,Museum of the Chinese Revolution).Yet he could also record in his diary while in China the year before that"Mao is a mix- 　　ture of Hollywood star and god"(Diaries,Book 73,September 7,1970).Li Zhisui seems on shaky ground in reporting that in 1970 Mao thought Snow to be a CIA agent(Private Life of Chairman Mao,532).If accurate,it would appear more Likely to have been an example of Mao's often eccentric and exaggerated rhetorical style-in this case,in connection with his use of Snow as an informal and indirect Channel of communication with Washington.Li himself is quite wide of the mark in stating that Snow was"a pariah in his own country"in 1970(ibid.). 　　(24) Lois Wheeler Snow,China on Stage(New York:Random House,1972);Diaries,Book 82,December 21 and 22;1970,Jannary 15,25,and 30,February 6 and 7,1971. 　　(25) Lois Snow,Death
