Reviews shantung History.

Mr. Wilson reviewed to length the
history of the German rights in
Shantung provinces, declaring when
these rights were acquired the state
of international law was such that
President Mckinley and Secretary
Hay did not even protest, but only
asked that American trade rights
should not be affected. The Hay
open-door policy, he said, meant not
the open door to the rights of China
but an open door for the goods of
America"
Later, said the president, Russia,
France and Great Britain obtained
similar rights. without any protest
from the United States. The peace
of Portsmouth. he declared, by which
Japan acquired Port Arthur at the
end of the Russo-Japanese war, was
exactly similar" to the Shantung
provision of the present treaty. Each
he said. gave Japan rights in China
which had belonged to her defeated
enemy.
Great Britain and France "can not
in honor" now violate their secret
/
clared. and the only way in which the
case of Shantung could be bettered
was to go to war against France,
Great Britain and Japan He asked
whether those opposing the Shantung
provision of the treaty were willing
to start such war and added: Their
interest in China is not the interest
of assisting China, but of defeating
the treaty"
That's it" and that's the boy.

took up the cry. There were more
cheers a moment later when he de-

the rights of the weak rather than
the power of the strong. 1t was a
peoples treaty, he said, not states
mans treaty. The peoples of the
world, he said, were tired of the old
system of autocratic domination and
they would overthrow it "one way or

autocratic governments would be ex-
cluded from decent society because
only self-governing peoples could hold
membership.
