the former were not to sell their rights
in it to another power, and the com
pany's permission was to be obtained
before concessions could be made for
mines in the ncighborhood of bodies
Of ore or coal owned by the company
The Hanyehping enterprise is in the
heart of China and is by far the most
important producing source of iron and
steel in the republic.
Fourth-Without the consent of
Japan, China was not to ALLEVIATE, either
by concession or lease, any portion of
her coast to any third power This
would insure the recognition of Toxic s
commercial development projects of
nationals of another foreign power
"Fifth-China was to employ Japan
ese advisers in her political, financial
and military affairs. The Nipponese
were to join in the administration of
the police departm of important
Chinese cities and were to supply sc
per cent or more of the munitions used
by China's armies. Important railway
concessions were to be granted in THE
Yangtse Valley. In the Province OF
ese were to be permitted to work mines
build railways and construct harbol
works, and were to be consulted before
capital could be borrowed from any
other country to carry on such
projects"
Settlement Of problems involved ir
these demands is asked by the Chinese
as a precedent for any general agree
ment on the present status of the Fal

W allace Says
Secretary Bl II me High
Freight Rates and Lack
of Foreign Markets for
Agricultural Conditions
Gain Will Be Gradual
Overnight Prosperity Is
Not To Be Expected, He
Declares in His Report

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-~Freeiy and
frankly discussing the present plight of
the American farmer, Secretary Wal
lace tells the Pres dcnt in his first an
nual report to-day that there Seems
to be good reasons for believing that
the worst is over and that we may
reasonably hope for gradual improve
ment from now on He adds that "a
clear recognition of the conditions as
they exist should help US to realize
this hope
In large part, tho troubles of the
farmer to-day arc due to world wide
conditions and the inevitable result Of
the World War, the Secretary of Agri-
culture says, adding that il is not to be
expected that by some "miracDlous
transformation" the period Of adversity
may be turned overnight into a period
o. prosperity.
High freight rates. big crops pro-
ployment in other industries in the
country with attendant lessening in
buying foodstuffs and the lack of for
eign markets for the Farm surplus are
given by the Secretary as the moro i'm
mediate causes for present conditions
in agriculture. He lays PARTICULAR =
stress upon the lack of foreign markets
and high freight rates.
1T is a terrible Indictment of modern
civili2ation,' he asserts, chat with
such abundance here there are millions
of people overseas suffering for the
bare necessities and other millions
starving to death. And surely we are
sadly lacking in our understanding of
economic laws or in our adjustment to
them when the production of bounteous
crops grown by the hard labor of 49,
100000 farmers and farm workers and
their families is permitted to play such
large part in paralyzine our indus
tries and business at home"

China are those which submerged
Corea. They are Identical in origin,
in purpose and in result.
Japan Accused of Fraud
"Corea's right to be heard by this
conference rests upon the solemn
sanctity of treaty obligations. Not
force, but fraud, gave Japan possession
Of Corean territory and Corean SOW
ereignty. Her treaty of alliance with
Corea against Russa in 1904 made
Corea her indispensable base of opera
tions against the common enemy, in
ackn owledgment for which great ad-
vantage she covenanted to safeguard
Corea's independence and territorial
integrity for all time.
"Then, victorious over Russia, she
forged her treaty into weapon for
the undoing of Corea. The burden of
the ycIe then fashioned for the necks
of her unhappy people has been made
heavier by the indifference of the ma
tions to their obligations. This great
conference, whose convocation has been
greeted as the harbinger of new era
in world affairs, constitutes the final
tribunal of appeal for Corea. She asks
for justice.

lncc of China, again independent, only
to become absorbed by Japan, entered
Far Eastern circles here to-day in the
person of Syngman Rhee, chairman of
the Corean commission. Mr.. Rhee sent
plea to Mr.. Hughes asking that Co.
rea's cause be heard. He said any ad-
Journment without consideration of
Corea would "leave an Asiatic Alsace-
Lorraine to plague conscience, threaten
it's peace and disturb the finality of
every adjustment of international rela-
tions." Succinctly Corea's case was
put by Mr.. Rhee and his colleagues be-
fore Mr.. Hughes thus:
There are three periods in Corean
history, considered with reference to
her foreign relations: the period of
4,215 years prior to 1882, during which
she maintained her own independence
and integrity by her own unaided eff
the period of twenty-threc years from
1882 to 1905, in which she SUSTAINED
diplomatic relations with all the world
relying more or less at first, and in the
end wholly, upon the powers to sustain
her entity, pursuant to the treaties they
made with her; and the period from
1905, at which she has suffered from
usurpation at the hands of Japan"
"Corea differs from China to-day,
says Corea's plea to the conference
"only in that the processes of foreign
intrusion have fully accomplished ir
Corea what is still in progress ir
| China. If the observance of this pledge
of national sovereignty be now essen
tial to the preservation of China, it i;

is to enjoy the onen door and that she

But what about the status quo?"
ask the Chinese delegates. Unless
Shantung is delivered up uncondition-
ally by The Japanese, they say. all
other concessions by Japan and all
other promises for future protection
woald be of no avail in pacifying the
Chinese people.
The Shantung controversy has ar
rived at d stage where it may or may
not be settled satisfactorily to the
Chinese. The negotiations over the
railroad, which forms the cruz of the
whole Shantung question. have reached
stage where Japan asks whether the
road would cease to function if the
Japanese withdrew. The Chinese an
ways throughout China are being oper-
ated successfully under Chinese adj
nlinistration. II the Japanese dele
gates do not yield the railway the con-
troversy will go back to Mir Hughes
and Mr.. Balfour with a request that
they mediate or that the whole sub
ject be taken before the conference
itself. Should mediation or the COR
ference decide upon a compromise, the
Chinese delegates would still be in a
quandary. for they have been in
structed explicitly by the Peking gov
ernment to regain the whole of Shan
tung or quit.
Clash Over 81 Demands
The disputes growing out of the
twenty-one demands made on China by
Japan in 1915 are more complicated.
The LansingIshii agreement of 1917
gave American assent to certain "spe-
cial interests" obtained by Japan under
those demands. But the demands
themselves, which Peking ceded under
duress. have ever been regarded by the
Chinese people as "an attempt to re
duce China to dependency of Japan
The demands are divided into five
groups. Their effect, which the Chi
ncse delegates seek to annull before
any general agreement on the Far East
is reached, is thus summarized from
the Chinese viewpoints:
"First-China was to assent to any
arrangement Japan and Germany might
make of the latter's claims in Shan
tung. China was, moreover, not to cede
or lease to any third power any terri
tory within or along the coast of Shan
euHS' A>cW poie 70 .H Clc ~ ONlilCe WEI
to be opened to trade and additional
railway concessions were to be granted
to Japan.
"Second-In southern Manchuria and
eastern Mongolia railway leases al
ready held by Japan were to be ex-
tended for ninety-nine years-the first
Russian lease of twenty-five years be-
ing near expiration. Japan was to be
consulted before special privileges were
given other foreigners and her (Ja-
pan's) nationals were to be accorded
advantages of residence and landhold
ing which were given eo aliens no
where within the republic.

~ did not care at all what it was
should manufacture, except that it
should be some staple article of gen.
eral utility. This is an attitude my
friends have found it hard to under
stand. They seemed to think it would
be natural enough to want to make
something beautiful in itself, but my
interest was entirely cer.=red upon
the usefulness of the article and the
problem of making and distributing.
"The leather manufacturing busi-
ness, which we finally decided upon
is part of highly useful and neces-
sary industry. For instance, l have a

safety straps and body belts, which
we make for repair men for the tele-
phone company, that could not have

scrVi d her many adventures in hunt
ing her business, from the days she
sought the advice of "big business
men," who told her women were un-
fitted by nature for the. manufacture
of anything except candy or household
art objects, to the climax when she
took to reading the adve rtisements OF
business opportunities in the news
papers, and her final choice Of the
leather industry.

"why l have gone into business. Il

Mrs. Norman de r. Whitehouse, for
merly chairman of the New York State
woman suffrage party, announced yes
terday that she Is going into the
business of manufacturing leather
goods.
She is the most recent addition to
the list Of wealthy women who since
their experiences in suffrage work and
the war find social life insufficient to
hold their interest.
Mrs. Whitehouse has acquired con-
trolling interest in the Buchan Murphy
Manufacturing Company, of AIT La
fayette Street, which makes leather ar
ticles, such as loose leaf binders, check
book covers, travelling bags and safety
belts.
Mrs. John Blair Her Associate

with Mrs. Whitehouse in the suffrage
campaign, has resigned as secretary of
the Women's City Club and will be

They will begin active business opera
tons at once.
Mrs. Whitehouse seemed destined for
political career after the suffrage
victory Of 1917 and her mission for
President Wilson in Switzerland as an
organizer Of the Bureau of Public In
formation during the war. She ex-
planned yesterday, however, that she
now feels that business is more desir-
able than politics as career
II learned to enjoy work during the
four years I was in the suffrage cam
paign and during the year 1 spent in
Switzerland for the government" she
said. when the war was over and
came home I knew it would not BIZ
possible for me to return to an mac
tive life.
"Many jobs were offered me, but
wanted to do something on my owr
initiative. Illness prevented my start
ing in at once, but last spring the
time seemed close at hand when
could at last begin to plan. The whole
world Of effort was before me. M.
interest turned more and more to {
business career. 1t seemed to me tt
be a more fundamental occupation thar
any other and to bring one into more
intimate contact with the problems O
the modern world.
81 then decided upon a manufactur
ing business because that seemed t.
be a more all round and complet.
business than any other. 1t presents
