The senator made 4 short social call
upon Controller Coler and appeared
anxious to air his views. He speaks from
personal experience, as he has been in
China
1--WE should let the matter entirely
alone" he said vehemently. THE mis-
sionaries have no business there. They
should be withdrawn. They are not con-
verting any Cinnamon. The Chinese have
their W philosophy, religion and moral
code, as we have. The work for the mis-
~sionaries is in this country

lived at Picking myself. and know the
conditions. If the German minister has
