and for the most part harmless peo- pie, just because they go about in large numbers, waving a flag and in turing nobody, is obviously not the best way to deal with the situation.
 Eye-witnesses declare that they have seen people, old and young, shot and beaten and mercilessly dealt with in orderless ways. if such con- duct is possible in the towns and cities, it is feared that matters will be tricts.
 All shops were closed and all schools shut up for weeks.
 The merchants were commanded to open the shops on pain of punish nlent, and, as the soldiers appeared, they were obliged to do so, but no business was done. In one Japanese school when the teacher appeared all the Korean children began. to scream and ran out.
 Rumorcd Change of Regime.
 There seems to be a rumor in Japan that the authorities in Kore l will be obliged to resign and a new regime" appointed. No doubt a less military form of government would be more suitable to a non military people like the Koreans. Those who know the Koreans well are confident that if they were allowed to have their say and to go on with their demonstrations. and processions until they had eaSed or ventilated their feelings. no harm would come of il and no violence would result. It is the summary interference with swords and bayonets that leads to violence and murder. The affair is being back ed up by Koreans in China and Si- beria and China and Russia are ex pected to do something to prevent this, according to vernacular Press re- ports.
 What the result will be when the new Japanese Army gets to work ia Korea cannot yet be known.
 There can be no doubt, of course, that Japan desires the good of the Koreans One cannot go with those who entertain a suspicion that the Few the Koreans the more room there will be for Japanese. The fact that Japan has already changed from a military to a civil form of govern ment in Kwantung shows how anxious she is to suit government to people. The difficulty is that she has too long delayed reform in this di- rection in Korea. It is always a very difficult task to find suitabI men to hold office in Korea The best men shrink from it as a thankless, if not almost impossible, undertaking. And

 Missionaries SuSDeCtPd.

From the beginning there has been an increasing suspicion among the Japanese that the disaffection was be- ing fomented by the missionary in fiuencc. There is no proof, however, that the missionary has done anything to promote the present disturbance. though missionaries have been arrest ed. and some are in prison await ing trial. The charges against these arc that they sheltered rebels, and presses for printing reasonable pam phlets have been found on their prem ises. To anyone who understands mis- sionary life in Korea there can be no doubt that the charges are unfounded; for the missionaries accused carry on schools. and all schools have print ing presses, and nimeographing out fits for printing school Iapers and examination questions, so that the pos session of these things is no sign of crime
 As to harboring rebels, all schools have their students around their prem ises, and these might easily tako part in the demonstrations and even take their friends into ther quarters for protection without the knowledge of the missionaries
 As for reasonable pamphlets. they are scattered everywhere and mission aries could not justly be held responsi- ble for the presence of such literature on premises where many natives are housed
 Naturally the Japanese are not pleased with the criticism which the missionaries very naturally offer of the drastic methods adopted in at tempting to quiet the popula tion. No mode seems acceptable to the auth critics save force, where as a willing ness to inquire into the cause of the uprising or to confer with the leaders to ascertain what are the wrongs from which the people are alleged to suffer might more readily bring about the desired end. Even the Japanese Press admits that there are some ser ious wrongs in the peninsula.
 One paper states that when the gendarn,es are ordered to search premises, a frequent function of theirs, it seems they often assault the mem bers of the household and even insult the women; and the families have no way of redress, as all complaints have to be made to the authorities through the gendarmes who inflict these in tolerable wrongs. Of course this is true, ,<is in itself enough to force revolt upon the helpless people

There Is hardly a village of any i'm portance in Korea where violence on one side or the other has not been ex- perienced in the last few weeks. Quite a number of people have been killed and many wounded and assaulted.

 Japan has no one such as England has in the person of her missionaries in India, to show the people what kindness and philanthropy mean when dispensed from unseIfish mo- tives.

Marshal Sir Douglas Haig declared
recently in a speech at Newcastle.

allies" said Haig. at was necessary

fighting was going on, but don't for
get it was the British empire that
won this war.
~ don't wish to particularize, but
you know our Russian friends let US
down, and the Italians didn't do a
very great deal then. Our French
friends made the best of it but then
they really had very hard job at
the beginning. For the last two
years Britain bore the brunt of the
struggle"
Haig was probably too badly scared

nation will have its own history of
the war and that will equally distrib-
