CHINA TO START SHIP
LINE TO UNITED STATES
Oriental Capitalists Plan to Put Five
Modern Steamships on Pacific
Ocean Service.

WASHINGTON. - Word reaches
the bureau of foreign and domestic
commerce from Honolulu that China,
within a year, is to place five modern
steamships in the service between the
Orient and the United States, as an
Offset to the policy Of japan in re-
serving space in its subsidized ships
for Japanese exporters. If this ar
rangement can be made, it is pointed
out, much will be done to relieve the
shortage of ships on the Pacific ocean.
The new Chinese ships, according
to announcement, are to be similar
in capacity and general features to
the vessels now operating in the
transpacific service by the Nippon
Yusen Kaisha, and will follow the
semitropical route and make regular
calls at Honolulu. Shanghai will be
a terminal port, but it is understood
that the route may be extended to
include Hongkong and Manila.
Fung Sui, the representative of a
company of Chinese capitalists. is said
to be on his way to the United States
to close negotiations and place con-
tracts for material for the new feet
of steamers. He made a short stop
at Honolulu on his way over, and let
drop something about the purpose Of
his trip. Mr.. Sui says, according to
advices reaching the bureau Of for
eign and domestic commerce, that
China has guaranteed generous sub
sidy to the new company. and that
much of the capital has been sub
scribed in south and central China.

far it has not been necessary to take
any steps that would insure care of
the books after they passed into the
hands of the districts.
The state board of education has
adopted resolutions in accord with
section 1927 Of the political code
stating that preference will be given
to texts entirely written, compiled,
printed and published in the state of
California, providing that merit be
the sole criterion in judging all texts
from whatever source. In deciding
upon comparative merits of textbooks
it is the purpose of the board to give
due consideration to the Judgment of

NOAH CAUSED FALL
SAYS OLD TABLET
ADAM AND EVE CLEARED BY
TRANSLATION OF NEWLY
FOUND RECORDS.

1t was not Adam and Eve who
brought about the fall of man, but
Noah. according to translation Of q
tablet now in the University of Penn
sylvania museum. An announcement
to this effect was made this week BY
a representative of the museum.
According to the Sumerian theol-
,ogy found on the tablet, which is said
to have been written before the days
of Abraham, and translated by DR..
Steven Langdon. professor of Assyri-
ology in Oxford university, England,
Noah was ordered not to eat of the
cassia tree in the Garden Of Paradise.
and when he disobeyed. the curse fell
upon him.
The curse was that he should have
i'll health and an early death instead
Of living to be $4,000 years old like
his ancestors.
/, According to the announcement
made, DR.. Langdon bestowed much
labor on the subject of the fall Of
man, not only in translating the tab
let, but in comparing it with every
known tablet or historical account Of
any kind, as we'll as with the account
given in the Book of Genesis.
DR.. Langdon, according to the an
nouncement, says that this tablet is
at least thousand years older than
the Genesis account, and, so far as Is
known, is the Oldest record of the
sort in existence.
The tablet was written more than
1000 years ago, possibly 5000 years,
and evidently records tradition
which goes back to the early history
of man. The Babylonian and Sumer-
ian accounts place the food at some
thing like $4,000 B. c., and the lapse
of time between the creation and the
food is filled by ten kings, who
reigned altogether $4,000 years, an
average of 43.2OO years each. The
reason that later kings reigned COM
paratively short periods is that Noah
sinned in eating of the cassia tree.

MIDDLE WEST SAYS
BUSINESS IMPROVES
TRADE GENERALLY Is STEADILY
APPROACHING THE NORMAL
DEALERS OPTIMISTIC.

General business throughout the
Middle West continues to make slow
gains but it is the opinion of the best
authorities that it is reviving and
steadily reaching normal proportions,
says a Chicago reviewer. In many
respects the situation is peculiar mas
much as it is now being compared
with the beginning of the war year
ago.
That which has been accomplished
during the past year is considered re-
markable by those who have watched
the general situation in q careful way.
Fundamentally, conditions are better
than they were. As compared with
two years ago, the volume of BUSH
ness handled now begins to reflect a
true situation and while there was
more or less depression at that time.
everything points to the fact that bus
mess will soon 60 ahead of that
period. With the war still going on,
there is more or less apprehension
and conservatism which tend to delay
a forward movement.
War Orders Help Tndustrials.
The only industrial betterment
now is to be found in those concerns
which are particularly interested in
foreign war orders. Railroads are
not the heavy buyers of iron and steel
products as in former years, bit it is
believed that in the course OF time
they surely must enter the market.
With the great mills of the country
now crowded with so-called foreign
business. it is known that II the rail-
roads should begin their normal buy
ing the mills would be taxed beyond
their capacity.
There is an optimistic feeling in
all business circles and predictions
are freely made that the coming fall
will show a great expansion in trade
generally. There is an enormous
amount of money lying idle and the
nndncldl COHultlOH III tHdI iOoPoS'
could not be much better than at
present, so that when the turn ac-
tually does come the railroads of the
country will find themselves in much
better position regarding earnings
than they have been for more than a
year.
Iron and Steel Trade BOOms.
All authorities speak of the great
Improvement in the iron and steel in
dustry. This is giving other lines Of
trade somewhat Of an impetus. 1t is
true that activity at the mills has in
creased until many of the plants are
crowding operations close to capacity,
and should it develop that this was
of permanent character it would be
an exceedingly reassuring sign OF a
revival in general business.
Loading reports Of Western rail-
roads continue to show slight irreg-
ularity in movement Of freight. In
most instances, however, the traffic
is holding pace with what it was a
year ago and has Appropriated the
volume of tonnage of two years ago.
