AUsTR1A's NEW MINISTER.

Less has been heard of Hungarian dissatis-
faction and the Dual Monarchy IS internal trou-
bles since Count Leopold Won Berchtold, the
Austrian minister of foreign affairs, was retired
and Baron Stephan Burian Won Rajecz replaced
him.
Won Rajecz is a true Hungarian, with plenty
Of support among his own people and with the
respect of the Austrian people. Won Berchtold
could not satisfy Hungary as to the conduct of
the war, though the Hungarians stood firmly
by Vienna when the drastic note to Seryia pre-
cipitated the open breach. Furthermore, Won
Berchtold s influence in Roumania has been on
the wane, If widespread reports are to be cred
tied, and above all Austria Hungary has been
anxious to hold the Roumanians to the offensive
and defensive alliance in force when the war
broke out.
Hungarian leaders headed the war party last
summer and with Hungarian premier, Vienna
need not fear but that Budapest will give all
the assistance possible.
Won Berchtold had asked several times for
permission to retire, but this permission was
not granted, according to London reports.
That he was allowed to quit his important
post while the war was on is pretty good proof
Of serious dissatisfaction with his conduct of
office. Baron Burian was once the Austro-
Hungarian minister of finance and is skilled in
diplomacy.

ROY s. ANDERSON STANDARD
Oil Company's Picking representa-
tive): During the revolution of 1911
the standing army in China amounted
to approximately 100000 men in the
field. This army was mainly support
ed by the provinces. The army OF
China was never until the last year
considered a national unit, but in 1914
the central government inaugurated a
plan to pay off this army and to make
the military force unit in the ma
tional government President Yuan
Shfh-kai has succeeded in large mea-
sure in this undertaking, but any one
can readily see that it has been a
heavy drain On the national resources.
As evidence of the confidence of the
people in the government, cite the
fact that five months ago domestic
loan Of $16,000,000 was oyersubscribed
two months after it was issued.

EDITOR
THE POINT OF FRICTION.

Americans who have lived in Japan, or who
have visited the Orient to study social and po-
litical conditions, almost invariably disagree
emphatically with the startling sentiments
often heard in Congress and elsewhere in the
United States concerning the possibility of war
with Japan.
The Star Bulletin on Saturday published part
of very interesting article by Eliza r. Scid-
moree dealing with Japan's part in the war
an appreciation of the japanese position from
one well qualified to speak. Indirectly that
article is fundamentally opposed to the idea
that Japan will risk breach of relations
with the United States-provided Japan is
treated fairly on the immigration question.
Directly In accord with Miss Scidmore's con-
illusions, and quite as interesting for its own
information, is the view expressed few weeks
ago by Martin Egan, former editor of the
Manila Times and newspaper man of much
experience in the Orient. Testifying before the
senate Philippine committee he said:
ITO me il has always seemed that the Philippines
would be incidental to any difficulty might have
with Japan and not the cause of any difficulty with
Japan; and have always felt that there was never
any real necessity for trouble with the Japanese II
are prepared to treat them fairly. i am unable
to see any necessity for armed conflict for the
so-called mastery of the Pacific. / unable to
see anything there that have that they want,
or that they have that we want. We have one or
two points of danger, and one of them is in this
very question of immigration, and think we fail
not Of good intent but through not understanding.
The Japanese do not want their people to come to
California and they do not want them to be citizens
of the United States, but at the time they do
not want to say that they shall not come to
California that they shall not become citizens of
the United States. 1t comes back to matter of
national pride. 1t seems to that most of the
things that they have done in their very extraord-
mary career in recent years have been done with
the idea of asserting their equality and insisting
fair treatment / convinced that If we under
stand them and treat them fairly we will not have
any trouble with them"
DR.. Sidney l.. Gulick said much the same
think when he was in Honolulu, and in addition
DIR. Gulick has proposed definite immigration
policy to be applied to all aliens alike. There
is very general agreement among. those who
may speak with authority that not the limita
ton of immigrants but the discrimination as,
between aliens of one nation and aliens of an
other is the most likely point of friction in
Pacific relations.

China
SEEKING BIG
FOREIGN LOAN

C. F. Wang, special agent of the bu-
reau of finance in the Chinese re-
public, passed through Honolulu last
week on the liner Korea, returning to
Picking.
The report that Wang was in the
states as the agent of President Yuan
Shih-kai of China to negotiate a loan
with American corporation interests,
and which caused the Chinese revolu-
tionaries in this city to send a protest
to President Wilson, was declared
myth by him.
81 never camse to the United States
to negotiate loan," said Wang, nor
did negotiate a loan or transact any
other business in connection with
loan.
"The revolut:onarles of San Fran
cisco have made too much Of my
presence in America. came as a
special agent of the Bureau of Finance
of the Chinese Government to inspect
methods and systems of banking and
the currency system of the country.
Now am going home, and no loan has
been made to China during my stay
here"
Wang came to the United States
three months ago. He is former di-
rector of the Bureau of ADULTS and
the Bureau of Taxation in the new re.
public. Most of his time in this coun-
try was spent observing the admins
tration of the Treasury Department at
Washington, but he has also inspected
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1915-02-08

several of the big banks of the East.
While Wang was in Washington
the revolutionary committee tele-
graphed to the President that he was
trying to negotiate a big loan to the
Chinese Government and made a
strongly-worded protest against such
q deal.
