FLAMES LAPS FOR
 RIOTS IN CHINA
Friend Sends Outline of Cause
 to Rev. A. H. Heininger

The fact that the present anti foreign upheaval in China was caused by Japanese workmen and not by Chinese Is revealed in A let. ter received by Rev. A. D. Heinin- ger, First Congregational church
 aisslonagy ~ow home on furlougb, rom Rev. Harold S. Matthews, vice principal of Porter Middle school, Iechow, shantung. The outbreak be- gan after a Chinese had been shot dead In a near-riot at Tsing Tao, but IL has not been made known outside of China that this fatal disturbance was caused by Japanese strikers who were attempting to destroy machin- cry In the factories where they had been working. This is the version given by Mir. Matthews to the local man, and hs continues that several other Chinese were killed when the British after firing into the air with out result, sent volley into a pa- rade of protesting Chinese students.
 Given "Vacation" to Parade.
 The Porter Middle school Of which MT. Heininger was principal when in China, was affected by this student strike. Urged on by letters from other schools, the students notified the faculty that they were going out on a strike. and the fac uty upon due consideration, grant ed the boys two and one-half days to parade and make speeches. Ex- ans were close at hand and the graduating class wanted their di- plomas, but the lower classes refused to return for the exams, even though offered second parading vacation afterwards. The situation was still doubtful when the letter was written.
 Tn Sylnapthy With Students
 "As far as the goal and motives are concerned" the letter contin- ues, Eve are thoroughly in sym pathy with the students. Those Shanghai police should not have sired on those unarmed parading students. The unequal treaties, in- cludins extraterritoriality, should be cancelled, I am afraid that these demonstrations will harden the hearts of the British parliament and increase all anti-foreign feeling in China. The end is not yet in sight"
 Porter Middle school corresponds 10 a combination junior and senior high school in this country and pre- pares for the Chinese universities. The pupils have rrTular curricula, English playing 3 prominent part and Bible study is also required of all except seniors Athletics occupy much of the students attention, and the boys are making rapid strides along these lines. When Mr. Heinin- ger returns to China this fall, 1t is expected that he will resume his duties as principal of the institution.
