Missionary Returned From
SoochoW Says China Is
Suspicious of Nippon's
Activities in siberia.

Japan is showing some signs Of
modifying her militaristic attitude,
and her disposition to meddle in
Chinese affairs is much less than
in the recent past, according to Jo-
seph Whiteside of Soochow, China,
who arrived here last night, ac-
companied by Mrs. Whiteside and
their four children. Mr.. White
side said that China is somewhat
suspicious of the good faith Of
Japan. and some Europeans and
Americans in the orient are
watching developments with inter-
est. China's suspicious are
aroused, he says, because of Jap
anese activities in Siberia, where
Japanese nationals are acquiring
large amounts of property and
where troops still are numerous.
China has the kindliest feelings
towards the United States, Mr..
Whiteside said, and the practice
of receiving Chinese into American
colleges and other schools has in
creased the good feelings between
the two nations. China was dis
appointed somewhat because this
country could not see its way clear
to affording her all that was asked
at the disarmament conference.
Internal Disscnsion.
Mr.. Whiteside said the conflict
between the forces Of North and
South China, who are contending
with each other is made some
what more complex by internal
dissensions in both the North and
the south.
Mr.. Whiteside has been for fif-
teen years-professor Of English in
Soochow university, an institution
maintained by the Southern Meth
odist church. His children were
born In China, and he has decided
to locate in the United States to
give them an education, in their
own country. The schools of AL
buquerque' were highly recon-
mended to him, he says. and he
may locate here. M
Mr.. Whites home is in Annis-
ton, Ala.
