HYMN COVERED HIS RETREAT
Probably Young Clergyman Feared He
Would Get Into Yet Deeper Water
II He Kept On.

In Georgia they tell of young
clergyman. newly settled over a large
parish, who had occasional fits Of en-
barrassment when standing before his
congregation.
One Sunday. after reading a notice of
a woman's missionary meeting to be
held in the chapel few days later,
he endeaYored to add special appeal
Of his own for large attendance.
After stating that It was to be a
meeting Of great interest and import
ance, he said: I'VE, the women of this
congregation"
With flushed countenance he
stopped and retraced his steps.
"We, who are the women of this con.
gregation," he began.
This was no better. and he beat a
blushing retreat by saying: LET us
sing the four hundred and first hymn" "

or at the next meeting. dealing with
the question centering on the rail
ways In China.
The very important question of the
open door had been dealt with that
morning. and from the door the ave-

and more an avenue Of railroads. 1t

est OF all countries that there should
be equality OF treatment for the trade
and commerce of all nations upon
bring before the committee the fol-
lowing resolution, which In the first
part takes the form Of a statement
by China and in the second part the
form of an agreeing or adhering
statement by the other powers:
that throughout the whole of the rail-
ways in China it will not exercise or
permit any discrimination whatever.
direct or indirect. in respect of
charges or of facilities on the ground
of the nationality of passengers or
the countries from which or to which
they are proceeding, or the origin or
ownership of goods or the country
from which or to which they are con-
signed, or the nationality or owner
ship OF the ship or other means of
conveying such passengers or goods
beI0fe or atter tnelr transport on the
Chinese railways.
"The other powers represented at
this conference take note of the above
declaration and make a correspond
ing declaration in respect Of any of
the aforesaid railways over which
they or their nationals are in a posi-
ton to exercise any control in virtue
of any concession. special agreement
or otherwise.
ANY question arising under this
declaration may be referred by the
powers concerned to the board of ref
erence. when established, for consid-
Grafton and report"
No Determination.
Sir Auckland Geddes continued that
he would like to add two or three
words, to say that he was aware that
it was the existing practice of the
Chinese government not to exercise
or permit any discrimination on the
railways under their control, and-that
he thought that IL was the best prac-
tice OF railway policy in all the coun-
tries.
He then stated that, with the per-
mission of the chairman. the British
delegation would move the resolution
on the following day.
The chairman said that the resolu-
Ion would be circulated and pre-.

sented for discussion at the next
meeting.
The chairman added that it WAS
manifest that the development of rail-
Intimately and directly associated
with the prosperity Of the country.
and that it might be possible that. in
showing interest in the future devel-
opment of China. the conference might
desire to Indicate general policy as
to railway operation in the future. To
bring the matter before the confer
ence. merely for the purpose of indi-
eating an attitude and point of view
and general policy, he would present
the following resolution for consid-
Grafton:
1.-The powers represented in this con-
ference record their hope that to the
mate existing rights. the future de-
velopment of railways in China shall
be so conducted as to enable the Chi
nese government to effect the unifica-
tion Of railways into railway sys-
tenn under Chinese control, with such
foreign financial and technical CO.
operation as may prove necessary in
the interests of that system.
Resolution to. BE Circulated.
The chairman then stated that the
resolution would be circulated and
presented for discussion after the
resolution proposed by Sir Auckland
Geddes has been dealt with.
Baron Shidehara asked whether
his proposal might be considered later
If the Chinese delegation were not
prepared to discuss it that day.
The chairman said that he presumed
that the matter presented by Baron
Shidehara would be regarded as be-
fore the committee. that there would
be full opportunity for the Chinese
delegation at another meeting TO
present views upon the question. and
that the question. which was very
important one, would have full con-
sideration by the committee and
could be discussed by the Japanese
delegates and others as might be
desired.
The committee then adjourned un-
til the following morning, January
10, at IL O'Clock.
The subcommittee on far eastern
| railways constituted at today's meeting

'It is agreed on all sides that China
is a country with immense poten-
nature with arabic soil. with mines
and with raw materials of various
kinds. But those natural resources

as they remain undeveloped and un-

1t would be noted, the chairman
said, that those principles, as stated
in the first article of the agreement
between Germany and Great Britain,
were that 1t was E matter of joint

The board itself prescribed the rules

The text of President Harding's
letter embodying his proposals for
the settlement Of the railroad strike
follows, in part:
II need hardly add that 'have
reason to believe these terms will
be accepted by the workers. If there
is good reason why the managers
cannot accept, they will be obligated

to bring the strike to an end. I
have made a full appraisal Of all the
