In other words, there is no fourda'
ton for the new house of China.
Speaking politically. and perhaps
rhetorically, Premier BRAND. OF
France, asked one day in the Wash
ington conference. China? WHAT ,s
Chinag Where is Gilman
Needs Investiga alton.
Let me initiate this candid French
statesman, and because OF what 1
have said 80 far, let me appeal TO
the fair and enlightened mind OF the
world and to the specially qualified
political figures among the confer
ence delegations. before going any
farther with the Chinese questions
to appoint, first of all. a special COM
mittee to investigate China, ana par
ticularly to ascertain and resolve the
following questions:
eminent in China, not In the sense Of
Intervention, but with the warmest
sympathy and understanding. The
committee should meet in Picking or
Shanghai; representatives OF both OF
the two Chinese governments should
meet with them; the Canton govern
ment (so-called), should be unofficial
lY asked to be unofficially there.
China 3 leading statesmen should be
collected and their advice ana
opinion sought, and the committee
should receive and hear governors
in power as well as governors
out Of power. In addition to the per-
haps twelve or eighteen Chinese at
such a gathering, the committee
should consist Of representatives OF
the powers assembled at the Wash
ington conference.
2. The second question to be re-
solved by the international committee
of the Washington conference powers
should be a method of practically ap-
plying the consortium agreed upon by
the four powers-America, Great Brit
ain, France, and Japan-last January.
In resolving this question, there must
come into consideration the Chinese
financial conditions, the liabilities Of
China, and the unfication Of the fifty
or sixty different kinds OF Chinese
currency.
3. The third question to be resolved
Ia how to eliminate-to adjust the liv-
ing conditions-of the 100000 useless
Chocolate" soldiers in China, who
annually consume S0,000,0O0 Chinese
taels for support, who. II dismissed
from their present so-called soldier
ing would become bandits, and who
could be put to useful work and pro-
ductive work by constructing main
line railways.

lM6mO0r OF Japanese fAfuam0msJ
What is the first thing the confer
ence SHOULD do In China? Japan's
interest in China IL more vital than
that OF any other country. This In
90 not only Of its propinQuity. but
because of the fact that Japan de.
ponds upon China for its principal
supplies OF food and materials.
Every British statesman who ever
made a speech In regard to the nee
castles Of Great Britain and her
water borne commerce and its naval
protection has always thrown out
the cry that there must be sympathy
and understanding for Great Britain
because she Ii an island empire and
that her normal food supply needs
rcplenishing from overseas every
seven weeks.
why does not the world remember
that Japan is the Great Britain of
the Far East, that she Is another
island empire, similarly situated to
Great Britain in the question of food
and the supply of raw materials?
We must have rice and beans and
other staples of food for our popula-
ton, imported from China. we must
have iron and wool and other raw
materials. They are necessary to
our very national existence.
Seeks Peace in China.
Therefore Japan desires more than

nearest neighbor, shall have peace

BOSTON BUYERS
SEEK new CLIP

The wool situation did not i'm
prove during March, according to
the monthly bulletin of the federal
reserve board, although there ap-
pears to be in the Boston district a
prospect that considerable portion
of the new clip in the United States
would be bought in that territory.
The boards bulletin, referring to
the wool situation, says:
Raw wool prices continue to de-
cline and as stated in the Boston re-
port-(The wool trade of Boston is
fully aware of the fact that there
are 45.000,000 sheep in this country
which will soon be sheared and that
each animal will yield between six
and seven pounds Of wool)-owners
are still in Possession of a good part
of last years clip and it is likely
that buyers will prefer to purchase
from the new clip. Receipts of
foreign wool in Boston have been
about twice as large since the begin
ming of the year as during the cor
responding period last year.
Notwithstanding the uncertain
conditions of the market for raw
wool, there has been during the
month considerable buying of goods
for fall and a resultant increase has
occurred in several of the wooden
and worsted mills. On February l
the census bureau reported per
cent of all machinery idle as com
pared with IS per cent on January
/. Reports for the months of Febr-
uary and March will, no doubt, show
further decreases in the percentages.
Present indications are that the
American Wooden company's recent
offering of fall goods was satisfac-
tory.
'In the Philadelphia district in
creased demands from the hosiery
industry have stimulated the demand
for worsted yaNs and a revival of
activity is evidenced by the fact
that some OF the mills previously
closed have reoppened and are now
running at from 33 1-3 to so per
cent capacity. The enlarged de-
mand has not, however, been ex-
perienced by all of the manufacturers
and some report a falling off of or
ders in March,"

What Will be Said of Us.

Did you ever stop during these
busy days and ask yourself he
question when have passed from
TINS life, what will be said of me?"
When one has passed on, the world
is disposed to condense curiously the
story of his life into one or two
sentence. To think that all of the
years that We struggle here can be
condensed into a few lines. 1t saws
of a man that he devoted his life to
the story Of botany and lived in an
attic. 1t says of woman that she
was the mother of so-and-so. who
became famous. Others are remem
bered for crimes they committed
misfortunes that overlook them.
fortunes they gained or lost, lives
they saved, books they wrote, in
ventions they worked out.
Strangely enough the world does
not tell Of the commonplace vir-
tues. They are lost in the shadow
Of some one or two exceptional deed
that may be virtuous or not. but
deeds which interest the world.
