SEES CHANCE IN CHINA
japanese Publicist Urges
Economic Alliance Be-
tween Two Countries.

Toxic Correspondence of the Asso
ciated Press.)--At a time when Japan
Is seeking to win the friendship of
China. interest Is attached to an ar
ticle by T. Yamamoto, well known
publcist. urging an economic alliance
between Japan and China. In the
Japan Magazine. he says that japan
regards the present as opportune for
entering on a solution of all her prob
lens concerning China. and that the
general conviction is that if the chance
is allowed to pass it will not occur
again In Il thousand years.
"Hnherto," he says, "Japan's prog
ress in solving such problems has been
retarded by molestation from abroad
and by conflicting views among her
own statesmen. Now that western
powers are too prcoccupied with the
war in Europe to be in humor for
mcddling in affairs between Japan and
China. it should prove a convenient
momcn, for carrying out a fundament-
al solution of the various questions IT
issue between Japan and her big
neighbor. ...==
China has been living from hand
to mouth financially for years. Japan
is coming to the conviction that the
real yellow peril in China is borrowed
gold. The two countries most able
now TO advance China the money she
needs are America and Japan; and al
ready the rivalry between them in
| this respect has set in. Requirements
Of concessions in China. by force, Is
no Longer a practical possibility; and

so nations are now disposed to depend
on wealth to obtain such advantages.
II they cannot take, they can buy,
when the country is so poor. The coun-
try that can lend China the most
money is likely to find the most friend
ship in China. In this money influence
Japan is beginning to detect as great
a danger as she saw in the threatened
territorial disintegration of China.
lone of the fundamental principles
of Japan's policy in China is the bring
ing about Of an economic alliance be-
tween the two countries. as well as the
development of trade and commerce.
With her present enormous accumula-
ton of specie as result Of the war.
Japan can afford to finance China in
a large measure. for no country can
afford to despise money. and China last
of ALL
IF England and American will but
! allow Japan 20 pursue peacefully her
economic and commercial policy in
China she will be satisfied But she
insists that the ambitions Of no other
power in China shall exceed the policy
of japan herself. They must not seek
from China concessions that would
give them prestige over Japan. who
must be supreme among her equals in
| China"

WILSON TO URGE
COMMUNITY FORUM
President to Urge Use Of Schoolhouse
as Civic Center in Lincoln
Day Address.

Washington, Feb. i0.-Thc school
house as the community forum will be
President Wilson's topic at the Park
View school, Washington. on I.incoln's
birthday. The Park View school is
known as the first schoolhouse in the
city of Washington designed and con-
structed for use as a community CEN
ter This school was also the first in
Washington to be used for a conmuni-
~ Thanksgiving celebration.
The movement for increasing the use
of public schoolhouses as community
centers and forums of citizenship has
been endorsed by ex-Presidents Roose-
Welt and Taft, and has repeatedly re-
ceived President Wilson's enthusiastic
support. In 1911, when he was gov
ernor of New jersey. he gave the
opening address at the first national
conference on community center devel-
opment held at Madison. Wisconsin.
ON that occasion he said. 1T is nee
essary that "A simple means he found

| Of view, we may get together. for the
whole process OF modern politics. the
| whole process OF modern life. is a pro-
| cess in witch we must exclude mis-
understandings. exclude hostilities,
| bring all men into common council and
| so discover what is the common inter-
| est. This is the problem of modern
! life" Pointing 10 the opportunity

J to answer this common need the
! president said, They are public build

uted. They belong to the communi

affairs. They are just what we need.
| According to Major j. b. Merwin of
| Middlebury, Conn, President Lincoln

| Washington public schoolhouse during
| his administration. SO far as the rec
