American newspapers paint a blacker picture of China than exists, Roscoe Pound, University Professor emeritus and adviser to the Chinese Ministry of Justice, reported today.
Professor Pound, who is now in the Orient helping unify Chinese laws, made his observations in this morning's Law School Record.
"There is by no means the general condition of demoralization, corruption, and in-efficiency which is portrayed in American newspapers," he said. "The gravity of news from abroad increases with the square of the distance."
Professor Pound slammed the popular notion of an influential Communist Party in China. "There are scattered Communist agitators and conspirators here and there," he said, "and in the North there are Communist armies." But he claimed the leaders of these armies are like the old war-lords whom the National Government has overthrown.
