POLITICAL MOVES
 OF GREAT EXTENT
 BREWING IN CHINA
Leader Of Canton Government Says Aim Is To
 Unify And MOderniZe Nation

Shanghai, China, Feb. 14.-Dr. Eu-
 gene Chen, private foreign secretary to Dr-Sun Yat-Sen, President of South China, noted editor and writer, told the International News Service today that big political developments are
 expected in China in the coming
 months, first in the Middle Yangtsze and later in the North. pr. Chen is one of the first Chinese authorities to give a clear picture of this tran sient period in the history of ka1eido- scopic China.
 ''We have gone to Canton in order to unify China said pr. Chen, mot to divide her As an unsettled state China has survived the struggles and wounds of history. She can con whole. This truth lies deep in the his toric conacioutness of the nation.
 China is facing great problem.
 We are in the midst of changes
 and perp1exing difficulties. This comes
 from the inclusion of China within
 are politico-econonlic system of Great CT Europe with its industrial ruth
 tessness and material efficiency and
 worship of force. These are not fine
 things. We must needs adapt our
 selves to that system, taking care so
 far as we are able, to hold fast to the
 great truths and memories which have nourished the nations mind through
 a vast period of continuous national
 life.
 Foreign Experience Teaches" Foreign experience teaches that the method of adaptation which has suc- ceeded best is the regime in which
 rulers are answerab1e to the governed to the people-through Parliament The method is not perfect, but, 1 continued pr. Chen, "it is the least | objectionable of all the ways of run
 ming a modern state which the wit of | civilized men has yet devised.
 | The real alternative is despotism. | The Bourbon mind insists on the rule | of a strong mana benevolent des- pot We have had ten years of such i rule. Today China Is we11-nigh a wreck. It is time that China tried a
 more civilized way.
 1 What does the South stand for? | '-We stand for this civilized way of
 government - Parliamentary ssaern- ment-for and in China, as against the l Peking makeShirt of non-Parlia- 1 mentary rule. This is at once the meaning and cause of the political di- l vision of China.
 Change Without BIoodshed' | T emphasize: A parliamentary sys- 1 tenn. with its apparatus of general | election, enables the governed-gen- 1 orally speaking-to effect a change of
 government without bloodshed. That is, broadly, the meaning of the Presi- | dential election in the United States. Non-parliamentary rule compels the lgovernment to resort to the ancient
 right of rebellion and civil war when

New York, Feb. 14.-A chapter which completes to date the story of Francis Bret Harte's unfortunate family has been written It is told herewith by Richard Bret Harte,
 It completely bridges a, gap which biographers have been trying to en- compass. But it is another chapter of suffering and sorrow brought about by separation, with which the his tory of Harte's survivors appears re- plete.
 When last December it was re- vealed that Mrs. Jessamy Bret Harte Steele, favorite daughter of the Ogdensburg, N. Y, the news solved mystery they had been trying to pen fly to her assistance.
 The story of Richard Bret Harte's efforts to locate his aunt is told in a letter received from Vienna, which follows:
 "Vienna, Jan. Is, 1922 FI have been much grieved by the recent news of my aunt. Mrs. Jes- samp Bret Harte Steele. It was a re- lief to me to read the telegram from Ogdensburg, published by you on December 26, stating that she was comfortable.

 Beauty Often Recalled"
 1.-The beauty and striking person. a1ty of my aunt I have often re- called since my childhood, and dur ing the time that I was in the states attempted several times to discover her whereabouts
 My wife, who was formerly Lil- Han George, knew her very well, and during the time that she had a stu dio on 48th street, New York, did all in her power to assist her in her unfortunate condition.
 When in New York last October Mrs. Bret Harte and myself, with the assistance of Mrs. Carolyn Stern, tried to locate Mrs. Steele, but we found it difficult to obtain any defi- mite news of her.
 "I feel it my duty to inform you that my mother supported Mrs. Bret Harte, wife of the autor and mother of Jessamy Steele, for over IT years and did much to help her daughter. 'FUnfortunately I am not financial ly able to contribute permanently to- ward the welfare of Mrs: Jessamy Steele and, therefore, feel deeply gratified for the assistance. you have brought about for her through your paper.
 "I hope to be able to do something later, when my brother and myself publish our family mem oirs of Bret Harte.
 'Very truly yours ''RICHARD BRET HARTE."

a change of government becomes po- 1itical necessity. This is the essential l explanation of the disarray in the pub lie life of China during these regent years.
 Preparation? "As a reactionary mind is not amen able to reason, it must be reached By the objective method of force. That is why we have gone to Canton-there to prepare the means that shall make bottom government in this country on the rock of popular consent.
 ''We Might Settle Down"
 eff we had gone to Canton in the interests of secession. a policy of sacred egotism which would have been intelligible and even logical.
 we might settle down at Canton and plan a program of work covering the next 50 years, unmoved by the daily descent unmoved by the daily ruin, which is being dug by Mandarin mis-government at Peking.
 And even if this ca11ousness were passab1e in the case of men, inspired by great love of the soil, a very slight knowledge of political psychology would make us doubt the possibility of Tuchun-ridden provinces voluntarily adhering to the Canton system with it's negation of the Tuchunate.
 ttNo - considerations of principle and expediency alike bid us reject this policy of political Fabiarism.
 tMust Be Modernized,
 'T repeat. China must be modern ized If she is to survive as an inde- pendent state. A despot is not good enough for the job. It is the work of our people as a whole; and parlia- mentary government is the only sys- tenn which has yet been discovered enabling people as a national aggre- gate to run a state in existing condi- tions of political an deconomic life today.

ATLANTA, Ga.-The state of

that the fiscal system had been put on
a sound basis during this period are
without basis, Representative George

meeting of the house ways and means
committee this afternoon.
He made this statement during a
session at which the committee voted
to report out favorably all tax meas
ures, including the classification tax
and income tax SO that the house
could consider them all and settle their
preference on the floor of the house.
The state of Georgia is falling be-
hind in money at the rate of $1,000

declared 81 am friend of Gov. Thos.

say that the state has not been placed
on sound financial basis as has been
asserted, but has only been kiting
about $3,000,000 during the last year.
