CHINA Be GINS To
GET READY FOR
NE VI CONDITIONS
Certain to Be Storm Center of
International Politics and
Commercial Activity Says
Oriental official,
jsv MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED w,eEl

Chicago, July 31.-China will be
the storm center of international poll
tics and commercial activity in the
future, according to C. C. WI, vice
minister of foreign affairs for the
southern government of China and
one of the principal delegates of the
Chinese peace commission. Mr.. WI
spent the day here on his way to the
coast. He is returning to China from
Paris.
To meet this condition Mr.. Wu ex-
planned tha, his country was taking
steps toward greater commercial eff
ficency and was also contemplating
a reorganization of the army so as to
be in a position to defend her rights.
The reason the Chinese delegates
refused to sign the peace treaty which
gave the political and economic rights
of the province to Japan was because
China does not want to prejudice her
self as to Shantung in the future. Mr..
WI declared:
I'VE want to be free to bring the
matter before the league of nations"
he said. "The concession which Japan
has made is of no value to our coun-
try. The only part of the leasehold to
be returned to China under the con-
cession would be a bathing beach

Berlin. July 3l.-German politi-
clans are intently watching Japanese
American relations as reflected here
in highly distorted form in reports of
the attitude of the American senate
and proceedings in that body regard
ing the Versailles treaty.
Comment has been muZZled in the
German press, but opinion is already
cautiously voiced that the next world
war will start in the Far East In
certain German quarters the curious
theory has been evolved that England
will have vital interest in playing
the United States and Japan against
each other.
Pan German argument is that Great
Britain, having eliminated her strong
est rival at sea, Germany, will hence
forth pursue the policy of trying to
break the next strongest naval powers,
Japan and America. In this view
Britain can best accomplish it's pur-
pose by looking on while America and
Japan damage each others navies in
an Eastern world war, thus leaving
Great Britain's supremacy unchal-
lenged.

ington are reaching Germany in the
most sensational form through the
Italian newspapers. the Corriere della
Seras having notably stimulated this
brand of German interest in the
American outlook.
An example of how the Pan-Ger-
man Imagination can still be pipe
dreamed" is furnished in a column
article in the Lokal-Anzeiger, head
lined "The Black Peril" which says:
"The disorders now reported are but
a beginning If the negroes can find
a leader-perhaps already they have
one-we may yet experience all sorts
of things, perhaps some day black
president.
1T is easily possible that Bolshevist
propaganda will make use of the ne
gro. one cannot foresee what might
happen in the United States if these
masses poured over the country, mur-
dering and plundering. The Japanese,
too, are calculating on the negro.
Some day this can grow into very
setsous problem, beside which the
labor question will be like child's
play"

New York, July 31,-When control of
the telegraph systems of the country
is formally relinquished by the gov
ernment at midnight, reduction of 20
per cent in rates will be made imme-
diately on the lines of the Postal
company, but the Western Union will
retain the schedule put into effect
after Postmaster General Burleson
took control on April /.
Clarence II, Mackay, president of
the Postal. announced in q statement
late today that the rate reduction
would be made lin accordance with its
promise to the public" He qualified
the announcement, however, by say
ing that if expenses continued to
mount, charges might have to go with
them.
Newcomb Carlton, president of the
Western Union, who also has been in
charge of the cable systems controlled
by the government since last Decem-
ber, declared on the other hand:
I'VE cannot see our way clear to do
better than we are doing at this time,
The head of the Postal company
said the return of the wires to their
owners marked the end of "a power
full effort by the postmaster general
and Bell Telephone-Western Union
companies to eliminate the cOmpeti-
ton of the Postal Telegraph Gable
company"
In statement on the stand of the
Western Union, Mr.. Carleton said:
The Western Union wires reach
22,525 separate communities. The
only other telegraph system reaches
1,700 communities, or less than eight
per cent of the total number served
by the Western Union. The offices
in over 10000 small communities ex-
clusively served by our wires are un-
profitable to the company, yet such
offices are essential to the country at
large and must be maintained,

mitted the publicity bureau of his or

the statement, and declared it was
not a circumstance to what would
come later
From the moment he entered the
committee room and introduced him
self to the members demanding the
explanation until he went away, Mr..
Cummings continually was smiling,
while Chairman Frear pounded the
table with great heat and stopped the
proceedings to have certain replies
stricken from the record. With mock
courtesy Mr. Cummings, turning to
the chairman and addressing him as
My Good Fellow" said that he knew
before he arrived that he would be
unable to satisfy the republicans
There was one or two sharp retorts
from Chairman Frear, to one of which
the witness, lighting a cigar from an
other and still smiling, declared, "My,

Hughes Report Enough.
At the outset Mr.. Cummings told
the committee that while he had not
read the particular article to which
the republicans took offense, he quite
approved it, except that it was not
vigorous enough. 1t was during this
questioning that Chairman Frear told
the stenographer not to permit certain
statements to remain in the record, to
which the witness replied that in a
court Of Justice he would have more
rights. What the chairman wanted
TO know especially was the basis for
the charge that the subcommittee was
a smelling committee" and that 1t
soon was to start on a "junket." Fin
ally, after a sharp wrangle, Mr.. Cum

gone over by Charles r.. Hughes

the witness continued, and this whole
subject has been canvassed until it is
threadbare. Moreover, the taking up
of a subject of this character by a

Washington, July Sl.-More than a
thousand Americans are threatened
with the loss of millions Of dollars in
investments by new agrarlan law en-
acted by the congress OF Sonora, Mex
leo, at the direct instructions of Gov
ernor Gales.
Several American companies have
already filed complaint with the state
department against the operation of
this law and other complaints are in
preparation. The department is pre-
pairing representations to the Carran2a
government against putting the law
into operation because of injustices
this government contends it works
upon United States citizens who have
invested many millions in agricultural
lands in Sonora.
VIII Pay With Bonds.
BY the te, ms of the law it is pro-
vided that the state will pay for lands
appropriated with agrarian bonds is
sued by the state, redeemabe at a
time and manner to he stipulated
later.
ne new COllSlliuAiOl VI MtAlNO Ilo
vides that the states shall issue agra
rian bonds under authority of a law
that has not yet been enacted by the
federal congress. The Americans point
out in their complaints to the state
department that these bonds are of
no value and inasmuch as the national
government of Mexico has not paid
the interest on its bonds since 1913,
there is no indication that the agra
rian bonds will be of any value.
Little Chance Given.
The alternative for the American
holders of these lands is to sell them
to Mexicans and take pay in twenty
annual installnscts of Mexican
money Any dispGte is to be left In
the hands of the governor who may
act arbitrarily.
Americans point out that in order to
make much of the lands of Sonora
productive, extensive irrigation works
are necessary and m1ny millions of
dollars have beein expended there in
every instance by citizens of the Unit
ed states.
The complaints protest against the
arbitrary appropriation of these lands
which, it is contended, means prac-
tical confscation.
