John c. Uhrlaub, Long Resident of Far
East, Thinks Great Change is I'M
minent in "Child of the Orient"

before long he suggested a possibility
which had not occurred to me until
hat m~oment-the idea Of organizing
without delay a Chinese-American
steamship company. He told me how
anxious China Is to have a line under
the Chinese flag, to be in connection
with railway lines, the building of
which China is seriously contemplate
trade Of China. In fact, the Min
istry has five projects in view for in
dustrial development, all Of which
seem to me to be very feasible and Of
inestimable benefit to China and our
selves here In the United States.
China realizes that she has only
one friend in the world, and that is the
United States. I believe the day will
come when the United States will be
very glad to have such a friend as
China. To-day China is in the same
condition as Japan was thirty or thirty
i've years ago-in 1856, for instance,
when I first went there to reside for
some time.
AT that time foreigners thought the
Japanese were not to be taken Sc
riously or to be reckoned with in the
world sense. l do not share this view
and my feeling as to its falsity was
strengthened as l remained there year
after year, representing q Paris house,
and became able to speak the Jap.
anese language fiuently.
During the recent talks with the
present Minister Of Finance at Pekin
he explained how crippled China is
financially. owing to the tremendous
drafts foreign Powers have made on
the Chinese Treasury. And It was
proposed that a steamship line be or
ganized under American management,
with capital provided by this country
and secured by Chinese Government
bonds. 1t Is known of course that the
British steamships in the Pacific are
being converted into cruisers, that the
German Oriental fleet is gone or in
termed, and this leaves Cor China's
shipping practically nothing besides
the japanese lines excepting the Pa
ciic Mail Steamship Company's boats.
and that company is seriously affected
as a result OF the new navigation laws
recently enacted at Washington.
THE need Of such a steamship line
as is proposed is evident and the re-
suits may be very great. T~hirty-five
years ago there was not a single ship
in the Japanese merchant marine. but
to-day the Japanese flag is in every
port Of the world. Half a dozen large
lines are subsidized by the japanese
Government and the development is
not ended, not by any a 1t is
simply incredible the tremendous

progress Japan has made In a few
decades.
: 60 to Toxic, as l did recently,
after twenty years absence, and you
will feel that some has caused a
magical and complete transformation
by rubbing Aladdin's lamp. To have
effected such transformation without
magical influence seems almost i'm
possible to one who knew Japan in
1895. say, and then sees her to-day.
I THE dirty. little. dingy streets are
gone. and in their place are broad,
clean, beautiful highways that would
be a credit to any American or Euro
pean capital. Modern buildings Of all
kinds. underground railways, electric
lights. luxurious theatres and elegantly
appointed hotels-every evidence of
the most modern and complete
civilization as we Of the Western
world know 1t. Why. look even at
Corea for evidence Of Japan's wonder,
full onward march in a few years
go to Seoul and there you will find q
hotel costing $500. 900. built by Japa-
nese. which is equal to any in the
United States.
what Japan has done in the past
thirty or forty years l believe China
may do in the three or four decades:
only China is so much larger. her
wealth and resources and trade neces-
stiles are SO much more enormous In
the aggregate as to overtop away out
Of sight that already accomplished by
Japan. As to the Chinese-American
line OF steamships. proposed to me by
the Minister OF Finance, nothing a
be definitely said at present. Freight
rates just now are abnormal: 1t is
not to be expected that after che war
they will remiin at this high level.
But when the war Is over the German
merchants in the Orient are going to
do business again.
"They will not give a pound Of

freight. going or coming, to either
British or japanese steamships II they
can help 1t: but they will be very glad
to offer to neutral lines all the freight
their own boats cannot take for one
cas- or another. Likewise. English
merchants and Japanese merchants,
who will fully resume business at the
close Of the war. will not favor Ger
man lines with their %cargoes: and a
great deal Of English and japanese
freight could be diverted easily to
American or Characterization boats
IL they should be ready to handle 1t.
we must not lose sight. either, OF
the fact that during the present hos
tilities in Europe a great many ships
are being sunk and otherwise de-
stroyed. These will have to be replaced
by other ships owned by somebody,
for the demand to carry freight will
spring up again.
There is another thing that a good
many persons perhaps have not had
brought to their attention. 1t will
take many ship bottoms to carry to
Europe material that Europe will
have to have in rebuilding the cities
and towns now being ruined on every
hand. Timber. iron. raw material Of
every kind will be needed, and also
will be needed the men to get them
out Of the earth and into shape where
they can be worked over into manu-
featured articles. l do not think that
all Europe will be able 20 furnish
building iron. structural steel and
lumber as fast as will be needed for
rebuilding of the cities and towns
laid waste; and yet as soon as peace
such rebuilding must be UNDER
taken at once.
Immediately Europe will be con-.
fronted with the fact that irrespec-
tive Il her mines and forests a vast
proportion 81 her labor supply has
been destroyed. A couple Of million
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1915-05-23

able bodied men killed and another
two million or more MANNED for life
and no prophet can foretell as yet how
much larger the number will run ere
peace prevails again. We Of Amer
lea will have % do the work. In To-
ing 1t we will nave to call on China
for much Of merchandise as we'll as
material. And we must have ships
to carry all this necessary cargo II
we are to aid Europe to get on her
feet again."
Mr.. Uhrlaub expressed himself as
seriously concerned over Japan's re-
CEN proposals regarding China.
DO you know what would have
been the result had China accepted
the demands hat japanese officers
should rain and direct China's army?
Let me tell you in q word; the Japa-
nese military men, by thus achieving
command. could have decided just
who should be brought into the army
of China; with a population OF nearly
400 900, 900 Chinese to draw upon,
Japan thereupon could organize. equip
and train the largest army OF fighting
men the world has yer seen. And
this military machine of incalculable
power. trained to Japanese standards
of efficiency by Jspln's ablest officers.
would have been a menace to civiliza-
ton.
"To-day's China's army. like our
own. is simply negligible, when COM
pared with other organizations OF
fighting men; but. like our own. be-
cause OF the intelligence prevailing
among the population. 1t could easily
be brought in the course of a few
years to a very high order of eff
cheney.
Yes" Mr.. Uhrlaub went on. re-
fiectively. to-day China is the child
of the Orient, stepping toward West
ern civilization. Thorough, thrifty.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1915-05-23

hard working China Is the Teuton of
Asia. while ,Japan IL like the French
OF mercurial temperament What
China has yet to learn is 60 cease
looking backward and to look forward
into the future.
Ancestor worship is not mercy q
religion, 1t Is an obsession. We in
America look far ahead and ask
ourselves what we can do so that our
children will he further advanced than
we in every way. The Chinese. on the
other hand, look backward and ask
what their remote ancestors would do
about this or that or the other thing.
