China Would BE shown.
China must see something concrete

it is said authoritatively. They hold
that in 1902 these same principles
were put forward by, John Hay. the
American Secretary of State, and
agreed to by the leading powers. In
the Anglo-Japanese treaty Of 1911, and
in subsequent treaties, China's In
teerity was guaranteed. During the
war Japan promised to remove her
troops, from Shanghai. but they are
stiIl there. They hold that II these
Independence and administrative
and territorial integrity. the chance
to develop equal opportunity In COM
merce and the concession OF all spe-
cial rights un5ustly obtained were
carried out both in the letter and the
spirit of the agreement, then China
would feel that her ambitions only
for fair treatment had been realized.
So many times before has China
hoped that these guarantees would re-
suit in concrete actualittes ana SO
many times have they been evaded
and modified that she has become
naturally untrusting.

rapidly growing school system"
Unanimous I'm Opposition.
1t was pointed out that the teachers
were not included in the original Lehf-
bach reciassiacation bill, but by a mo-
tion OF Representative Begg of Ohio the
secuon OF the measure which excluded
the teachers was stricken out. "Such

practically unanimously. and we feel
tnat our democratic organization and
our tenure of office are threatened"
The teachers object to inclusion in
the reclassification legislation on the
the civil service. and result in the
ALLEGATION of positions by a bureau
chief, and make it virtually impossi-
pie to adjust the system of rating to
mt the school personnel.
IT also Is claimed by the teachers
that the permanent fixing of salaries

ries OF employees whose salary status
Is less changeable, seems unwise,

States
Professional View.
AS there is no provision Or teach
ers in the Lehlbach bill, and as there
Is great uncertainty how teachers
would be classified and their salary
status determined, no assurance is
felt that professional conditions and
salaries would be improved by in
clusion in the Lehlbach BILL" says a
statement issued by the federal body.
The public schools of Washington
exist to serve the community. This
purpose can best be secured by pre-
serving the schools as a separate en-
tfty and by retaining the prese ent
local and democratic organization un-
der the superintendent and the board
Of education.
Congress in the past has always
been generous to the public schools
