LET ONLY CHRISTIAN

ASIATIC QUESTION
Federal Council of Churches of

Yates 1t.

Boston, Mass, Dec. 2.-"American
Christians should take every legiti-
mate step to promote good will in
America toward both Japan and
China" says the commission on rela-
tions with the orient in it's report to
the Federal Council of the Churches
of Christ in America, now in quad
renniaI sessions here. After outlin-
ing developments in the orient since
the outbreak of the world war and
discussing the question of immigra-
ton of Japanese and Chinese to this
country, the report says:
"For fifty years the problem Of
how to deal with Asiastics in Ameri-
ca has been constantly with US. Laws
are now proposed more dangerous
than any that have thus far been
passed., threatening injustice to jap
anese embroiling our relations with
Japan and, if enacted, creating a.
mong US an ever growing group Of
Asiatics who must perforce be loyal
to their foreign Asiatic governments
instead of to the land in which they
are born. Until the Asiatic question
is settled on Christian principles it
will grow increasingly difficult and
dangerous.
"The Asiatic question is one for
national solution. Local. legislation in
California will be futile. 1t will but
aggravate the problem. The gentle
mans agreement has served its day
and should be superseded by laws de
termined by congress and administer
ed by American officials.
"The regulation of immigration
from every country should be hand
led on the same general principles"

We stand upon the plank of the
Republican platform in this matter.
1t is known fact, that except for a
case here and there, the South has
been too lenient with the mob. The
officers have proved unwilling or
rowerless to apprehend and bring to
justice the lynchers, with the witness
es to prove their guilt. There is no
need to 60 into the reasons for this
state of affairs. 1t is enough to know
that it exists. There is but one cure
for it in our judgment. That cure is

let it come; the sooner the better.

Triest, Dec. 2.-Declaration of a
state of war with Italy, beginning
Friday morning, which was made yes
terday by Captain Gabrielle d'Annun-
zio, is not regarded in a serious light
by military commanders here. There
is warlike activity in Fiume, how
ever, and the sound of cannon and
rifle fire may be heard along the
Gulf of Quarnero.
All travel in and out of Fiume
has been placed under restrictions
and baggage is being thoroughly
searched for arms. While closest
watch is being kept on the operations
of smugglers who seek to take fire
arms and munitions into the city,
propaganda, letters and money are
also being sought. Trains leaving
Fiume are held up for hours at the
frontier by searching parties. Su-
perior officers in D'Annunzio army
continue to abandon the poet-soldier.
Things cannot 60 on this way

General Cavilglia, commander Of
Italian regular troops which have
thrown Gordon around Fiume, plan
ned to send an airplane over the
city yesterday to drop orders for the
poets legionaires to leave Fiume and
again enroll themselves with their
own units. The weather was most
unfavorable, however, and late in
the day heavy rain fell. The flight
was, therefore, postponed until to.
day. ..
General Caviglia, hero of the bat
tie of Vittorio, told the Associated
Press last evening he would use all
persuasive means to induce dan,
nunzio's men to surrender before he
would resort to coercion.

DISPENSING THE MOB.

North Carolina is showing US a
good many things. In fact in recent
years North Carolina has become one
of the most progressive of the South
ern states. And it has not made a
better record in other matters than
ir the matter of law enforcement.
Some little time ago when mob was
about to attack Jail, the Governor
placed a military company in charge
of the Jail, and the members of the
company were given orders to shoot
if necessary to carry out the purpose
for which they were sent. They did
shoot and there was no lynching.
We read in the daily papers of to-
day that another mob has been dis
persed. The mob attacked Jail in
that state and one of its members, a
former law-enforcement officer, was
shot. The door to the Jail was batter
ed down, but when one member was
shot the mob fled. Whether the in
jured person was shot by member
of the mob, ox by member Of the
guard placed in the Jail is not GER
tain. The members of the guard, >ac-
cording to the news dispatches, had
every reason to shoot to defend the
Jail entrusted to their keeping. But
what we want to emphasize is the
fact that when there are determined
men in charge of Jail acting under
the law, who are willing to shoot to
defend the law, there is not much
danger from the mob. The mob gen.
orally knows it's friends.
And while we are discussing that
we had as we'll call to the attention
of our readers a plank in the plat
10TH VI Ile iepupliSdn PoA|y' 1io'
party is pledged to the breaking up
of lynching in every part of the Unit
ed States. 1t is urged that nothing can
be done by the Federal authorities
in the matter of lynchings, but we do
not believe it. The Constitution of the
United States guarantees to every
man life, liberty and the pursuit OF
happiness; it guarantees fair trial
for every offense charged. If as mat
ter of fact the punishment of crime
locally is committed to the states and
the states show themselves unwilling
or impotent to enforce the guaran-
tees of the constitution, we see no
reason why the Federal authorities
should not step in, pass and enforce
law which will give to every citizen

SOUTHERN SCHOOLS
TAKE HIGHER STAND

Chattanooga, Dec. 2.-Announce-
ment was made by the commission
on colleges and secondary schools
which today completed the prelimi-
nary work for the opening session
tomorrow of the Southern Associa-
tion of Colleges and Secondary
Schools that pupils of high and prep
schools on the Southern list are now
eligible to admission to West Point
military academy.
This authorization came from
West Point authorities in September
as the result of an investigation of
the system used by the Association
of Colleges and Secondary Schools
in reference to schools applying for
enrolment on the Southern list.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1920
MORE KINDS OF TAXES,

When the General Assembly meets
there will be the usual number of
new schemes to extract money from
the people. Some of those who have
charge Of levying assessments against
the taxpayers have been busy lately
in devising new schemes for reaching
the desired results. Not being able
themselves to evolve sufficient new
taxing schemes, they have employed
a few experts, whose business it is
to advise legislators how to raise more
money from the people.
1t is now suggested that we have a
state income tax and an inheritance
tax. A man is to be taxed on his prop
erty, then on it's income, and when
he dies the property is to be taxed
on its way to his widow and children,
and this in spite of the fact that we
already have a Federal Income tax
and we believe Federal Inheritance
tax. There must be two dips every
time the vessel passes.
Our own judgment is that the peo-
pie just now. Will not have much
sympathy with those legislators who
cannot see some way to lower taxes.
BY the time we get through paying
city taxes, water and light taxes,
sewerage taxes, paving taxes, county
taxes, state taxes, and these grand
old good roads taxes, we imagine
that most of the people around here
will have enough of tax burdens
without paying legislators to invent,
or to employ others to invent, new
methods of taking money away from
the people for any and every concelv-
able purpose.
