 Two Message Reports
 It had been stated that the after noon adjournment of the senate had been taken to allow the special com mittee in consideration of the gov ernor's message. time to formulate it's report. It was later rumored that the committee was making war medicine manufacturing campaign material. That had been planned in fact, thes night before.
 There were two reports on the mes sage, the first by the committee on printing and clerks. This report con- veyed the thanks of the senate to the governor for his generous offer of un- paid-for assistants, and rather sar- castically the report alluded to the "delicacy' and tact with which he ture. But it was the belief of the committee that to act upon the sug- gestion of the governor would be to inn pair the service of the departments from which it was expected to with draw the clerks. Otherwise it must

LOW STANDARDS

MENAC|NC CHINA
Official Denies Charges
Which Have Been Circu-
lated That the Country
Has Become MilitariStiC.
tBn The Assoclnted Press.,

n Pekin, Dec. 29.-Charges which
have been circulated in some for
eign countries that China has be-
come q militaristic nation are de-
MED by DR.. Tyau, councillor of the
foreign office, in statement he
has just issuel.
What China today is suffering
from is not militarism, properly
so called, but an overweight of pro-
vincial military organization in re-
latiNn to the general administra-
ticn," said the councillor.
"China, according to Independent
investigation made by several de-
partments during the last few
months, has almost precisely the
same population as Europe--44O,-
600, 000--at least seven times the
population of Germany. If to the
field force permitted to Germany
by the Versailles treaty are added
the men in the safety police and
civic guard, and that total Is null
tiplied by seven, it will be found
that the ratio in China is inferior
to the ratio in an admittedly dis
armed Germany. In field troops
and provincial patrols, China has
/ $780, 600.
THAT their present organization
and their dependence on military
governors must be changed is
granted. But until a decision can
be properly registered regarding
the separation of civil and military
power and until the degree of pro-
vinciai autonomy compatible with
the sovereignty of the republic has
been settled by parliament and the
government, it would be inviting
disturbances to ATTEMPT change.
Greatest Enemy Today.
'The greatest enemy today Is not
militarism or provincial militancy,
but the low standard of living
among the mass of the population
and the luxury which modern es-
sentials, such as railways and
roads represent because of their
immense first cost In comparative
terms. The narrow margin between
existence and starvation Is so easily
wiped out in China's dense popu-
lation that when to this problem
is added the problem of taxation
the work of the government pre-
sents incredible difficulties. In
western countries well-articulated
credit systems serve to disguise
postwar problems perhaps greater
than China's, but in this country
they present themselves in all ma
kedness which renders evasion or
postponement impossible.

1t must be help justly given. She
pins her faith to the league of ma
lions and to a dispassionate, nom
partisan settlement of her issues
abroad, because too often in the
past it has been shown that what
is desired of her at home is not
negotiation but surrender. Inter-
national generosity will find a
swifter reward here than else
