He pleaded guilty to the first count
in the indictment and was sentenced to

On the second count he was sentenced

nations over races of less developed clvlli-
zation and lower material power, We
would express the earnest hope that a
growing sense of responsibility for the
right use of this influence may control
the actions of both governments and In
dividuals and in particular we would ex-
press our conviction that where territories
peopled by such races are under the rule
of Christian powers, the prime duty or
such powers is the education and develop
ment of these races
Evidence having been laid before us
that in many countries-occasi onally
even in countries under the control OF
European powers-native Christians lie
under disabilities both in regard to the
exercise OF tn cir religion and in regard
to their civil status, we would empha
size the fact that Christian teaching in
culeates respect for The civil authorities
of their own land as the duty OF Chris
tians, and would affirm the reasonable
ness of granting to Christians all the
protection, rights and privileges of loyal
and law abiding citizens. We would
further urge that Christian powers
should not only adopt this rule of action
In all countries under their direct con-
troll or subject to their political IN
fiuence but should also make friendly
representations on the subject to such
di sa bilitiee.
while fully recognizing the duty and
right of the civil auth critics of every
country to lay such temporary restric-
tions and conditions on the movements
and settlement both of their own ma
tionals and of foreigners within and
across their borders, as are demanded
In the interests of internal order and
international peace, We think iC well to
record our Judgment that 1t Is not wise
for the civil power to allocate areas of
work to different missions. unless in
conference with and with the concur
renee of the missions concerned.
I'VE recommend to the conference
that 1t take steps for the appointment of
a committee, composed in part of in
| ternational jurists of reputation, to
draw up brief statement of recognized
! principles which underlie the relations
| of missions to governments, which
statement after having received the in
dorsement of the leading missionary
societies or representative board of
missions, may be published for the in

feet missions. This subject was intro
duced through the presentation of the re-
port of the commission on the Relation
of Missions to Governments" Lord Bal
four of Burleigh is the chairman of the
commission and Seth Low of New York
the vice chairman. The commission ap-
pealed to the conference to make a decid-
ed pronouneement upon the Belgian Con-
go question.
I'VE have no hesitation in asking the
conference to make a decided pronounce
ment upon the Congo question" the re-
port says. This new state came into be-
ing under conditions which make the
whole family of nations more directly re-
sponsible for its existence than is usually
the case; they did not merely accept an
accomplished fact. but lent an active hand
to the accomplishment. This makes ii
doubly imperative that the conference
should present a full weight Of Christian
sentiment, effectually voiced, to overcome
the natural and usually commendable in
disposition of governments to meddle.'
The commission heads the list of its
findings with an expression of gratitude
for the large amount of mutual helpful
ness found to exist between so many mis-
sons and governments. Concerning the
right of entry for Christian missions the
report says
''Inasmuch as the results of missionary
enterprises are now so evident and have
extended over SO long a period that their
general beneficent effect Is demonstrated
we think that it may reasonably be asked
Of all Christian governments that they
should use their good offices with those
of other nations for the free admission
and exercise of missionary endeavor
where such admission Is not now granted
and further, that such interposition may
be justified to the governments, not or
grounds of religion, but upon the broad
ground of humanity. on account of the
benefcent influence of missions. and upor
the common right of mankind to receive
such benefits"
