Ncgiccting the Practical.

lake a sentimental inter-
est in China. but have neglected the
practical. One slogan under the Hay
formula Is the open door" for trade
and equal opportunity" therein, a
pledge to respect China's territorial
integrity being one of the planks.
Malignants have said that Japan has
closed the open door" But what
are the facts? Germany has closed it
on herself To all others It is wde
open. Japan hasn't closed 1t. Not only
yhas Japan not closed the open door in
China, but she has furnished the ma
Jor part of the shipping and banking
facilities for trade between the United
states and China. We are selling al
most as much American produce TO
China through Japan as we sell di-
rect.
While American merchants arc
falling to avail themselves of the open
door Japanese merchants. with Of
fees in New York, various Southern
cities. San Francisco and Portland.
are shipping more American goods to
China than any similar group OF
American firms. Japan. in fact, has
become to the United States what
President Mckinley and his cabinet
expected the Philippines to he-a
commercial base or selling agency for
the Orient. Today japanese firms are
the most effective and powerful sell
ing agents for. the American farmer
and manufacturer, not only in Japan
and China. but in India and Russia.
our exports TO Japan and Korea have
increased enormously in the past ten
years.
What is true OF the open door is
true Of nine out OF ten of the hostile
criticisms of her recent history News
without knowledge is the danger
point in our relations with Japan. In
shanghai, for instance, Japan has es-
tablished commercial college where
her nationals are trained for the Chi
Ina markets. They speak Chinese flu
emily, they dress as do the Chinese
they cat and room with the Chinese.
and during vacations they work for
Chinese traders. In their eaorts to
become masters of all that is Chinese
they even forego their multitudin Gus
hot baths, SO charact eristic of the ia .
panese, and battle only when their
Chinese associates battle Can compe-
tition such as this he thwarted? Is If
reasonable to complain about such
methods OF closing the open door of
China?
Books on the Far East.
Do not judge China or Japan with
out some knowledge of the funda-
mental conditions; newspaper COM
ment, ex parte magazine articles,
books and German propaganda arc
misleading. Read for yourself "rhe
Japanese Nation" by Nitohe VILLAS &c

teristics," by Arthur n smith Dr.

at any time. Read the magazine Asia
