White began his career as a reporter in China during the 1930s. He dealt with Nationalists and Communists. The US wanted to support China against Japan. Madame Chaing Kai-Shek was Christian education in the US and many US missionaries were in China. According to White, Roosevelt wanted a Japanese attack in 1941 to give us an excuse the support the Chinese. Later he gave up on Chaing and appointed General Stillwell to lead the war effort but Chiang objected and Stillwell was removed.
