WASHINGTON TOWNS ARE AGAIN IN QUARANTINE
 FOR DISEASE RAGING

DOUGLAS, Dec 2.-Mayor Elmer F. Smith received word last night that Tacoma, Spokane, and other Washington cities were again under quarantine and that quarantine regu- lations were again placed on Camp Lewis and at the Bremerton Navy Yard.
 Several cases of smallpox have broken out at the Bremerton Navy Yard and the rapid spread of influen- ga and pneumonia again in some of the towns which have already under gone siege of the epidemic and lifted the quarantine, has been cause for some alarm.
 Mayor Smith stated that the Island Health Board had no doubt beer criticized from not lifting the guar antine now that the restrictions were off in Juneau, but the present condi tions existing outside show that tho health boards can be too premature in dispensing with the health regu lations and that the tisland quaran tine will probably remain on unti next week

BELIEVES CHINA
 OFFERS A MARKET
 FOR OUR PRODUCE

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, Nov. 30- Dr. Choa Hsn Gnu, Consul General for the Republic of China to San Francisco, in a recent speech urged closer unity between American bus iness men and capitalists with those of the new. Oriental Repub- lie. In part he said:
 >>"As China still remains an az ricultural land she depends upon foreign countries for many prod ucts. The consuming power of for eign goods in China is great We are looking for new resources to meet the demand.
 American manufacturers should immediately put up factories in the Chinese territory to meet the de- mand. Our wages at home will be greatly benefited by such indus trial enterprises. Moreover, China is a storehouse of natural assets; besides agricultural products there are all kinds of mineral materials which have been locked up for many thousands of years for the production of manufacturing pur- posed.
 ''I propose that private activities be co-operated between China and American business men, between capitalists of both countries. China herself is not only a great market for manufactured products but al so serves as center of the far eastern trade.
