!. THE New CHINESE TREATY This
treaty, as concluded between the embassy
and the State Department, provides that
Chinese subjects shall be admitted to all
our schools, colleges and educational in
stitutions, without being subject to any
religious or political test. The Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations will in
sist on an amendment providing simply
that Chinese subjects be put on the same
footing in this regard as those OF other
civilized nations The Senate will proba-
bly, agree to this, and the embassy are
also likely to accept the change without
serious objection.
