Of AMERICAN ENTRY

The Associated Press .l-Sevoral political
groups in the house of peers have
joined in an indictment OF the govern

the peers expressed the opinion that

the real injury which Japan suffered

is replacing Japan.

cas- success in Siberia 1t is possible
that the peace of the orient will be de

MISSIONARY TELLS
OF EXPERIENCES IN
KOREAN REVOLUTION

Peking. April Correspondence of
The Associated Press l-Conditions in
Korea resulting from the independence
movement there where the Koreans are
endeavoring to shake off the rule of
Japan are becoming worse, according
to the Rev. Edward w. Thwing, oriental
secretary of the international Reform
bureau, who has just returned from
Korea.
'"The Koreans began the indspen-
dencc movement with the intention of
using only peaceful methods the Rev.
Mr.. Thwng told The Associated Press
correspondent, "hut the Japanese sol
diers have so treated them and stirred
them up that they are now wild and
reckless. No one can tell what will
come next. Seeds of hate and future
trouble are being widely sown. Chris
tians often suffer most. | have visited
several places in Korea during the up
rising and everywhere it is the same
kind of cruel military lawlessness. One
Korean Christian pastor said we
cannot stand it. They beat us like pigs
and cattle; and we are men,
"The Japanese are always trying to
discover supposed plots and conspira-
cies." continued the Rev. Mr.. Thwing.
"Thev even claim to believe that the
missionaries started the revolution.
They try to get Korean spies to go into
the houses of foreigners. They search
the houses of American missionaries,
looking for no one knows what. In
town that I recently visited, we We're
shadowed by n Korean who was de-
scribed to me by a missionary as the
cleverest spy in town
THE Koreans hate these men. or
course, being spies, they have to bring
information and when they can find
none they often manufacture it, Many
have been arrested who had no CON
nection with the affair and have been
cruelty beaten. At the police station
they often beat the men before any
trial on the general principle that it is
a good thing for every Korean to taste
the power of Japan"

I'm the series of reconstruction confer

Miss Lathrop urged str!ctcr school
laws to combat child labor. Sho said:
"Of the . 900 900 children under 'f years

600 are in occupations controlled 10y the
child labor law. Three-fourths Of the
children in the country are employed
in agricultural work Their only legal
protection Is the school Attendance laws,
many of which are inadequate and poor
~ enforced. State and federal reports
on rural schools are filled with dcscrip-
tions of short terms, poor school houses
and undcrpaid teachers. In England
the root of rural child labor has been
cut by the new education act, which
provides that all children up to II years
old shall so to school for the fun term.
The United States could secure the same
result by invoking the method of joint
state and federal contributions now
employed to promote vocational cduca'
tion. To make it possible for children
to remain at school, scholarships should

the wages the children might he earn
ing.
Dr. Mendenhall urged support for the
proposed bin providing federal and
state appropriations for maternity in
struction and care. The bill lis framed
to apply to rural areas where moro than
one half the babies in the United States
are born. She said: "New Zealand has
already developed a similar system of

MANS VOICE LOUD

San Francisco, May PA mans
voice can be made as loud as the can
mons roar; it can be heard two or
twenty miles. The ticking of a watch
can be amplified until it sounds ike
breakers on an ocean cliff.
It's no trick at all to magnify sound
four or five million times, or indefl-
nitely," said Tom Lambert. wireless
telephone engineer, today. "All that
is needful is to conduct a number OF
vacuum valves in multiple with wire
ess receiving set. and the thing is done.
At the first receiving contact voice
will. be normal. Cut in one vacuum
valve and it is raised seven times;
thereafter it squares itself-seven times
seven to forey-nine for the next vacuum
valve. and 40 times 40 for the next. and
so on"
Il mean volume of sound; not power
of transmission" explained Lambert.
"In a test recently a phonograph was
connected with an amplifier at mid
night, and we were lifting it up grad
ually to supply all San Francisco with
song and amusement, when the police
urged us to desist.
I'm the stadium of Golden Gate PARK

Mr. Lambert exhibited one of the
vacuum valves. Its exterior resembled
an ordinary 16-inch electric light bulb.
