革命中的中国回忆录

章节摘录

插图：In 1932，the United Farmers ofAlbeta（UFA）asked me the be their candi-date to contest a by-election for the Legislative Assembly of Alberta.Thatsummer,the UFA had ioined the Cooperative Commonwealth Federation（CCF），headed by James Woodsworth.I happened to be the first person in Canada tomn on the provisional CCF platform.Not long after my campaign started，a supporter told me that a verydamaging whispering campaign was spreading rapidly through the constitu.ency about me.In his opinion，if I did not stop it，1 would stand no chance ofwinning against my opponents.I asked my new friend what part of my darkpast had been discovered.He said：“They say you were bom in China.Theyalso say，”he went on，"that your mother was unable to supply you with milkand that COW'S milk was not available in China.Is that really so？"From the way he asked the question I got the impression that he couldnot vote for me if my reply was in the affirmative.So I had to explain that I hadno intention of refusing to give credit to a kind Chinese woman who hadsaved my life SO that I could contest this election as a farmers’candidate. My friend finished by saying："The worst of it is that they say since youwere brought up on Chinese milk，you are partly Chinese."I interjected that，according to that logic，I might have absorbed some ofthe traditional wisdom of the great Chinese philosophers，which should makeme the best possible member of the Alberta Legislature to represent the farm-ers of the Camrose Constituency.I tried to end our conversation by asking my friend to start a whisperingcampaign about my opponents。“What do you know about them？”he asked.“I have it on fairly good authority，”I said，“that they were brought up oncow’s milk.”I told this story at every public meeting I addressed after that，and theaudiences seemed to appreciate its logic.

前言

It is agrcathonor for me to what aprChe for the new，PFS（ChinaSociety for People'S Friendship Studies）50-book series under thegeneral title of Lig.ht on China.All these books were written inEnglish by journalistic and other eyewitnesses of the eventsdescribed.I have read many of them over the seven decades sincemy student days at Yenching University.With some of the outstand.ing authors in this series I have ties of personal friendship，mutualregard，and warln memories dating from before the Chinese people'SLiberation in 1949.Looking back and forward，I am convinced that China is pursu-ing the right course in building a strong and prosperous country ina rapidly changing world with its complex and sometimes volatiledevelopments.
