Christian General
 Is Chinese Leader
By EDNA LEE BOOKER. International News Service Staff
 


 Christianity because of the courage displayed by the American mission aries martyred at Paotingfu during meetings held by Dr. John R. Mott in Peking in 1911, General Feng Yu Hsiang, famous throughout the Far East as the Christian General. perhaps is the most spectacular figure in the civil war which is sweeping China.
 General Feng Yu Hsiang is the powerful military governor (tuchun( call from General Wu Pei-fu. General Feng left his duties in Shens1 and, with thirty-five thousand picked men, made an eight-day forced march to reinforce Wus armies.
 The arrival of the Christian Gen. sraT' at the front strengthened greatly the morale of Wu's soldiers, as the Chinese regard General FengA as "a miracle man.
 While Wu Pei-fu's soldiers chant fiercely and as if in frenzy the stirring marching songs written by General Wu. Feng's men shortened the long march through the hills by singing Onward, Christian Soldiers!" and around camp the familiar old hymns mingle with the shriIl cracked blasts of the Chinese bugle calls.
 Instructed From Bible.
 For all of General Feng'S soldiers receive daily Bible instruction, and many thousands of his men are bap- tized Christians.
 In 1900. when General Feng was student at the Paotingfu Military University, the Boxer war was at it's height. Joining the frenzied mobs of Boxers who were determined to kill the foreign" missionaries and Chi nese Christians in the city, Feng watched with great surprise the tre- mendOus courage displayed by the missionaries.
 T remember hearing the men and women Of the American Board Mis- sion (Congregation) the Presbyterian Mission and the China Inland Mission pleading with the mobs for their lives. for their little children and for the Chinese Christians" said General Feng.
 When they found their pleas were in vain they united in prayer and went to their deaths-some were be- headed, others cruelty burned and others strangled with silken cords with fortitude which I have remem- bered all my Hfe.''
 Because of the influence of Chris tianity, General Feng has transformed the lives of his soldiers. One of the greatest dangers in a community in China is when unpaid, angry soldiers desert, become bandits and prey upon the villagers for a livelihood. Gen eral Feng is teaching his men trades so that if they leave the army they are equipped to earn an honest liv- ing.
 Soldiers work in his factories where socks for army use are made on the knitting machines, where there are looms galore for weaving cloth where soap is manufacturer where rattan chair making is an important industry.
 He has established the first chapel in an army camp in China and opened the first little church in a Chinese prison: His soldiers are educated. All gambling dens in the vicinity of his barracks in Shensi and theatres are closed and the buildings turned into schools, workshops and preaching halls. The opium and morphia dens are closed and refuge established for drug fiends. He is a nationwide leader in the fight against opium in China

GERMAN FIRMS COLLECT
 SOUVENIRS FOR TANKS

Berlin. June 19.-'Keep souvenirs ready for the Americans" is the ad- vice given to hotel keepers by the Berliner Tageblatt. American tour ists are especially fond of them
 "It is also noteworthy to keep good placards ready to be handed out to the hotel guests when they leave the hotel. Americans are crazy about them and like to have them fixed on their trunks and bags and suitcases as a sort of recommendation, betraying their paying capacities"
 Numerous German firms already prepare collections with the most beautiful designs of famous artists to satisfy these demands. They all speculate on the Americans habit of buying sets of such placards for their collections at home

 The willy president of the Philip pine Senate Is too well versed in the mysterious ways of diplomacy and the expensive mission he is convoy ing to Washington to plead the cause of ''iqnm ediate, complete and absolute independence" will accomplish noth- ing.
 Through agents in the United States Quezon is perfectly well informed Of official and public opinion in this country, and though he refused to be instructed to demand complete inde- pendence, he hasn't the slightest idea of obtaining it-just yet.
 That is exactly what he told the only a few minutes after it nad voted to give definite instructions to the delegates to demand complete and immediate independence. He stood out for those instructions, he knew perfectly well that anyone who expected the commission to return to Manila with Philippine independ- disapp ointment He then proceeded to read to the commission a cable gram from his agents in Washing ton showing that the attitude of the Harding AdminiStration was dis tinctly opposed to Philippine 1nde- pendence at this time.

 Quezon is now in the United States, however, and he has author ity to eXpend considerable sums in missionary work. He frankly admits he believes the surest way of bring ing the American people to the Ffli- pino point of view is through pub licity. This. however, will not pre- vent the commission from prose- cutting its case vigorously both be- fore the President and before COL gress.
