They tell us that Buddhism and Confucian-
ism are quite equal to Christianity, and that
Buddhism especially, is far more humane.
But it so happens that nothing has been done
by the Chinese government for its famine
stricken people, though it spent 100000 on
the ceremonies of browning the young EN- peror;
and the funds raised in China are not from
wealthy natives, but from the foreign residents
in Shanghai and elsewhere. So few years ago
when Persia was famine-stricken, and American
and British Christians were forwarding their
prompt relief wealthy Persian spectators
were making money out of famine prices of
grain, and the shah himself made brilliant
and astonishingly expensive visit to Europe.

help. Even Islam is heartless.-Church at Home
