ever part of China the japanese exert political
control or influence, there does American and Eu-
ropean trade diminish and disappear, while that
of Japan swells amazingly. May not those be
pardoned who assert that Japan's oftdeclared
loyalty to the policy Of the open door is mere lip
service?
For sixteen years the United States has stood
behind the pledge that China's integrity should
be maintained, and Japan has f%ervently protested
her agreement. Yet he would be blind or a fool
who should deny that for a quarter of a century
past Japan has in effect aimed at nothing less
than complete military, police and political control
over China.
Much to Correct in Policy.
These principles of the open door and the In
tegrity of China were propounded by John Hay in
1899 and 1900, respectively, and they are still the
leading motives of American policy in the Far
East. Their maintenance has been more seriously
jeopardized by Japan than by any other nation,
and at no time so seriously as since the outbreak
of the great war.
America has nothing to be ashamed of, and
Japan has Ito put it mildly much to correct In
matters of Far Eastern policy. If today Japan
finds herself alone she has none to blame but her
self, and the opportunity Is the more favorable
for seeing to 1t that she correct her faults. Not
until she has done so can there be any settlement
of such questions as the requirement of citizenship
by Japanese and the modification Of the land laws
of California and other Western states.
These questions can only be settled, and the
obstacles to full and hearty friendship between
America and Japan can only be removed, when
the American people have confidence in the good
faith of the japanese government in the larger
problems of Far Eastern policy.

BELGIAN GEMS SOLD IN NEW YORK.

1t is said that quite recently a number of dla-
monds have been put on the market at Amster-
dam, London and New York which there is very
good reason to believe have zone from Germany,
and in all probability form part of the looting of
Belgium and France. The London Theological
Journal describes them as being cut In a manner
which made 1t clear that they once formed part of
old Jewelry. In many instances old jewelry has
been offered for sale under circumstances which
leave little room for doubt that 1t came from PROV
tnces occupied by German troops. Just now on
the Continent a lot of old jewelry is being offered
for sale. 1t Is not all loot; some of it represents
the sacrifices which the people of France and
Belgium have been obliged to make. Some of II

Vera liked Jack, but she liked him
more as a son than as a husband. She
could have mothered him without
fortune; but to marry him without it
seemed criminal to her. She decided
to save Jack from certain ruin.
She contrived to get his money out
