by the Rev. Leonard Constantine
Mr. Constantine, for many years a Methodist missionary in China, has written and broadcast frequently about conditions in China under Communist rule. In this talk he discusses the place of the Church in China. This Church suffers today under the disadvantage of having been introduced by Western missionaries, whose presence was at one time forced upon the Chinese Government by unequal treaties. Mr. Constantine analyses the dilemma facing the loyal Chinese who is also a Christian.
