Presbyterian Mission
airy Society Report

The A. d. Smith home was prettily
and tastefully decorated in Japanese
colors on Wednesday afternoon of last
week in keeping with the japanese
program which was carried out by the
Presbyterian Missionary Society.
Much credit is due the ladies taking
part in the program not only for the
excellent papers given but also for the
effectiveness of their costumes which
served to concentrate the thoughts of
the bearers to the topic under consid-
Grafton.
1'The American japanese Problem"
was well handled by Mrs. Everett who
in a very effective manner presented
the problems of the Japanese here in
America and told of the waves of feel
ing directed against these people at
different times and proving that the
japanese with their industrious ha-s
bits honesty and love of Agriculture
could really be an asset instead of a
hindrance to our country. The White
Peril is as great menace to the col
ored races as the Yellow Peril is to
the white. Why should the white race
dominate the colored races? Quoting
from japanese Professor, Mrs. Ev-
erett said "The present attitude Of
the white races may be white but it
certainly is not Christian. How can
the white races have the face to de-
mand equal opportunities in the far
east when they have denied them to
the far east in the West" IF one race
assumes the right to appropriate all
the wealth why should not all other
races feel i'll used and protest Z"
This was followed by paper by

out her Problems" which was also ex-

been made by the Chinese govern
ment as compensation for the mur-
der of Rev. w. A. Reimert. American
Church. by retreating government
troops, has ben refused by the Amer
ican legation. The legation informed
the Chinese foreign Office that
money settlement was not sufficient,
and insisted that the government
hold Gen. Chang Ching-Yo, military
governor of the province of Human,
personally responsible for failure to
provide protection.

charging Gov. Chang of Human with
an official admission of incompe-
tency and failing properly to dis
charge his duties and divesting him
of titles and military honors follow
ing the loss Of Changsha to revolu-
tionary troops. pardoned him by pres

URGE LUMBER DEALERS
TO GIVE NEEDED DATA
Trade Commission Anxious to Get
Industry Back to Nor
NAL RaSfc


No attempt will be made to enforce
or collect penalties for refusal of any
industry to answer the Federal Trade
Commissions trade questionnaires,
the commission told representatives
OF the soft wood lumber industry at
a conference yesterday. The COM
mission will await the outcome of
litigation as a result of injunctions
restraining the commission from
compelling replies to be made to
questionnaires issued in favor of coal
operators and steel companies
AS long as the commission is un-
der either of these two injunctions,"
Commissioner Gaskill told the lum-
bermen. neither will the commission
directly or indirectly attempt to en-
force or collect penalties or put the
various. industries in a position where
subsequently, if the courts decision
should be reversed, they would have
to run the risk of penalties accruing
to them"
Some of the representatives of the
lumber industry. into which the Com
mission recently announced it would
go in its cost inquiry, said the ques-
tionnaire prepared by the commission
would require expensive bookkeeping
The commission agreed to permit the
lumbermen to draw up a question
naire. which would require less ex-
penslVe bookkeeping and yet would
give the desired information
In announcing that filing of replies
to missionaries would not be COM
pulsory, Commissioner Gaskill said
1t was hoped by the commission that
many concerns in the industries sub
ject to the cost investigation would
reply voluntarily. Commissioner
Colver told the lumbermen that such
information as compiled by the COM
mission would be of value NOT onlv tn
the public. but "of value and use to
the industries themselves. as they
grope their way back to some new,
stable situation. which they are going
to denominate as normal and the
public is to accept as normal"
