CEang has not picked up much knowledge
of our tongue, he is keen observer and
many of the comments he made in his
transcontinental journey concerned the
manifest progress the country has made
since he was here twelve years ago. At
that time Chang. the son of general in
the military service of China. was occu-
pying his first foreign post-tl at of
secretary of legation under WI Ting
fang, then serving his first term as min
ister to the United States. Since then
Chang has served as China's representa-
tive In Spain and special commissioner
to India and Tibet-a versatility Of serv-
ice that has won him a reputation as
Slobe-trotting diplomat, and now, by a
turn of the wheel of fortune. he has re-
turned to Washington to take the place
reluctantly relinquished by the man whose
subordinate he was brief dozen years

American servants who We're charged

WILL ROUND OUT A BUSY DAY BY
making AN ADDRESS THIS
EVENING
His Speech VIII Formally Open the
Campaign Movement of the Lay
uen's Missionary Movement

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. Nov. IL
President Taft will round out q busy
day by making an address on religious
topics this evening. His Oratorical eff
fort will formally open the national
campaign meetings of the Laymen's
missionary movement, which will be
in progress in Washington during the
next three days. The organization in
charge of the gathering was formed
three years ago with the purpose of
uniting the iaymen of the Protestant
churches of America, to the end that a
crusade might be inaugurated for
bringing the entire world to knOwl-
EDGE OF Christianity.
The invitation to President Taft has
met with much opposition. The West
Virginia synod of the Presbyterian
church. at a recent meeting passed a
resolution protesting against the pres
ence of the president as the ''honored
guest of the movement, on the ground
cf his utilization with the Unitarian
church
The Rev DR. Samuel Spahr Laws,
who is widely known in religious and
educational circles throughout the
country. has also added his voice and
influence to the expurgation of Presi-
dent Taft. Dr. Laws, in well-tem-
pered words, ventures to criticise and
take exceptions to phase of the pro-
gram for the convention. which pro-
poses ito place before that conven-
ton as its most distinguished and
i0nored guest, and before the public
as its representative to sound the
keynote OF it's proceedings in it's open
ing address. a very distinguished citi-
zen. whom | greatly admire but who
does not Worship Christ nor believe in
His Deity" He refers to the presi-
dent of the United States.
He says this must be an error, for
1t unfortunately would pace him and
also the convention in tfalse light
and could only forebode "a blighting
Influence or the cause
DR. Laws protests that his view OF
the case is absolutely free from po-
titicai considerations; that his pen has
been used in defense of the president
against a political assault on his relig-
l0uS views. however variant from his
own. and that it is solely incompatible
ity of things religious that is consid-
cred.
Leaders who take part in the pro-
Jected campaign will have to continue
their efforts into the spring, and the
will close just in time to
enable them to get over to Edn-
hurgh. Scotland, for the Worlds Mis-
sionary conference. Some of the most

have been assigned to American lead
ers.
The plan contemplates the holding
of great missionary gatherings in fifty
large cities. All the protestant bodies
will be asked to furnish speakers and
workers.
Officials of the movement feel that
the churches of the United States and
Canada are fairly responsible for the
evangeliZation of 600000000 of the
1.00C 900 people in the world who
have not yet, according to estimates,
had the Christian message presented
to them. To do the evangelistic work
re -uired, if this Responsibility be ac-
copied, will mean the increase of the
American missionary force from the
present $50 to $4,000 missionaries.
The total annual offerings for foreign
mission purposes will have to be in
creased from $4,000 900 to $50,000,000.
This would mean that each member of
a protestant church must give. on the
average, $3.50 a year for the foreign
mission cause and the sending of one
missionary to the foreign field for
every eight hundred members of
American churches. To accomplish
these increases in one of the purposes
of the proposed national campaign.
