coTding to Special Agent Burrill, of the
Department of Commerce and Labor.
who was sent into the hotbed of the
American boycott in Southern China to
investigate the exact situation. His re-
port reached the department today. and
cast gloom over the optimistic attitude
assumed after the department issued
statistics early in the week. showing an
increase in the total export trade from
the United States to China during the
last seven months.
According to Mr.. Burrilrs report the
government has not succeeded in put
ting down the agitation against the
Americans. AS late as the middle of
January, he says, schools We're instiIl-
ing into the minds of the children the
power of the boycott as weapon Of of
Tense and defense against more power
ful nations, and that the general atti-
tude of the Chinese in the provinces
about Hongkong and Canton was such
as to make American commercial pre-
