CHINESE CUSTOMS
HARD NUT FOR
The BIG FIVE
Russo China Pact Is
Precedent
Especial to The Daily Worker

AOpoCidi 10 ms lazy WofRoTJ
MOSCOW, Oct. 16.-The question
of granting tariff rates on Chinese
imports across inland borders lower
than the rates on imports through
seaports, which is destined to arise
in the coming Picking tariff conference,
stirs up great interest in Germany
and Russia.
Until the Washington conference,
Japan through Korea and France
through Indo-China enjoyed differen-
tial rates on exports entering China's
, international and other ports. While
these ports probably are willing to
restore the differential to Russia on
account of the long Russo-Chinese
border, even greater interest is felt
in Germany because of the newly
signed economictreaty with Russia.
Under this treaty German goods are
given the right of transit across
Russia and are exempt from customs
duties. Thus German goods going to
China by way of Russia would pay
a lower import duty than would the
same goods entering Chinese sea-
ports.
Germany and Russia Absent.
While neither Germany nor Russia,
despite their large interests in China,
has been asked to be represented at
the tariff conference, they may ben
eft by the desire of France and Japan
to profit from their trade.
Information from Japanese sources
indicates an intention to demand,
first, the ALLEGATION of any increase in
the customs revenue to the payment
of China's unsecured loans, amounting
to 100000. OF this total two
thirds is due to Japan, 10 per cent to
France, II per cent to Great Britain
and 10 per cent to the United States
Hitherto the treaty powers have been
divided regarding the equity of these
debts. Several Of the loans obviously
we're made for purely military pur-
poses and for the benefit of dishonest
Chinese officials. Representatives OF
China which as nation received NO
benefit from these loans will surely
protest against their legalization.
RussIa's Action Aids China
China will be able to cite the exam.
pie of Russia in abolishing extraterri
toriality. Observers know that foreign
powers have scandalously abused their
privileges under this treaty provision
One large foreign power, through its
consuls, sold European flags to Chi
nese merchants, thus giving them ex
traterrritorial rights. Several smaller
countries having extraterritorial rights
peddled citizenship to opium smugg
lers, gun runners and criminals, giving
them immunity to Chinese laws. One
South American country even sold
citizenship papers to Chinese desiring
to escape the payment of taxes. An
other country extended the privilege
of flying its flag over the store of any
Chinese merchant who bought an in
surance policy in one of it's companies
China is expected to enumerate
these cases, and Germany and Russia
will support the Chinese by saying
that they themselves are satisfied
without extraterritoriality

Indians Natural Actors.

INDIANS, despite their reputation
! for being stolid and Unconditional,
are natural-born actors and are
easily directed in motion pictures, de-
clares Col. T. J. Mccoy, who has spent
practically his entire life among the
redskins. Col Mccoy had complete
charge of tho thousands of Indians
appearing in The Covered Wagon"
and "The laundering Herd.
Once you get the Indians to under
stand what they are expected to do
he says. they get into the spirit of
the scenes and do their acting per-
fectly. They are not camera con-
scious and play their roles with
abandon just as though they really
were holding a council or going on
the warpath."
But an Indian cannot conceive of
person being a different character
from what he really is. When he
acts he does just as he himself would
do in the actual circumstances.
AN Indian gets boyish pleasure out
of seeing himself in motion pictures
and doesn't try to conceal the TACT.
When he gets a 'stilP photograph
of himself in some scene he will
study 1t for hours, show it to all
his friends and treasure it as a thing
of great value"
When they see themselves on the
screen they applaud and cheer like
group Of small boys. When Indians
are used In a film Col. Mccoy is their
boss" from the day they leave the
reservation until they return. During
all the scenes in which they take
part he Is at the side of the director
and interprets in the Indian sign
language all of the orders.

ARMY.

Steps are being taken by Maj. Gen.
". H. Hart, quartermaster general of
the Army, to impress upon breeders
the value and desirability of regis
tering colts which are the get of Army
stations.
Announcement was made this week
by the War Department that the 1925
annual endurance ride will be held at
some point in Vermont, the exact To-
cation to be decided later, beginning
October 19 Strong pressure is being
brought to bear, it is stated, to have
Brandon, Vermont, designated as the
next place for the holding of this
endurance classic.
With the exception that a reduction
in weight which authorizes each horse
TO carry 200 pounds instead of 225.
which pertained heretofore, the rules
and regulations governing this years
ride remains substantially the same.
In addition to the cash awards
which have been given in previous
years, the Morgan Horse Club has Of
fered a $500 prize to the rider of the
horse whose score for condition is the
highest at the end of the ride, regard
less of the position at the finish.
There has recently been inaugu-
rated at Crissy Field, Calf, the policy
of taking Coast Artillery officers of
on practice flights by the 91st OBJ
Eervation Squadron, Maj. d. c. En-
mons. A. S, commanding. These
flights not only make for closer CO.
operation and better understanding
between the different branches of the
service, but will give the artillery
officers actual practice in aerial OBJ
servation for artillery fire adjust
ment. Aerial observation, since the
IF ha <
become an important adjunct to all
artillery firing, as ii enables the gum
ners to save the time and shots in
adjusting their fire on distant tar
gets.
The Secretary of War has pointed
out in letter that while the three
months limitation placed by the con-
troller general on courses at service
schools under section SO of the ma
tional defense act would be adequate
in a majority of the cases, several of
these courses exceed that period.
The basic condition must be at
tendance at a military service school
to pursue a regular course of study
as authorized by section 80, AZ
Stat, 1885. The decision of Deem
Der 81, 1924, called attention thereto,
and that for the purposes of the deci-
sion, which concerned rental allow
ance, it will be understood orders to
such active duty under section SO
1Till tE period not in excess of
three months. This must be the gem
eral rule, but there may be the ex-
cepuUnal case of minor variation
from the period OF three months by
reason of the length of the course of
the particular school, and where that
Is stated in the order the service may
be considered as temporary duty
within the decision in question. The
instances given in the submissiSn of
four months, three months ana ten
days, and also several days in excess
of three months, are understood as
representing the maximum of varia-
tion from three months, and action
Will be governed accordingly.

plan for the enlargement of the
United States Army pigeon activities,
approval of aich has been made by
Maj. Gen. Charles Mex Saltzman,
chief signal officer of the Army. This
reorganization plan would abandon
all the pigeon breeding activities of
the Government and would inaugurate

Government would depend upon civil
ians for both birds and the carrier
pigeon personnel in the event of an
emergency. In fact. the plan of Mr..
Delhauer is so we'll thought of by
the military authorities that two ad-
visory boards composed of Army Off
GERS have been appointed to perfect
the arrangements for the proposed
organization.
Adoption of the Reserve Corps
plan, it is pointed out by the authori-
ties, would insure pedigreed birds in

its men of the pigeon signal di-
vision in the proper use of pigeon COM
munications, those of the Reserve
Corps would be devoting their time
to expert breeding operations and the
duties of pigeon personnel in war
