SENATOR WHEELER FAVORS CONTROL
OF PHILIPPINES BY UNITED STATES
Montana Senator Portrays Chinese Situation-Rec'
commends that United States Send Men of Learn
ing into Consular Service
(HeIena independently

America should not withdraw
its control of the Philippines but
should continue to give it's liberal
support in every way to the de-
velopment of that country, declar-
ed United States Senator Burton
X. Wheeler in an address given
before more than 200 people in
the Congregational church. Sena-
tor Wheeler toured the orient the
past summer and visited the Phil
ippine Islands where he made a
study of conditions.
"The saloons are open in the
Philippines" said Senator Wheel
er, "but the natives do not drink.
The patrons are the Americans,
French and British.
Contrast of Conditions
"Hongkong is a beautiful city
with modern buildings and thriv-
ing enterprises" said the sena-
tor. "It is interesting to note,
however, the contrast between the
conditions within that city, con-
trolled and built by the British,
and the horrible conditions of the
Chinese section without Hong
kong.
Cause of III Feeling
I'm Shanghai, | discovered what
was really the greatest u of
ill-feeling toward the foreigner.
There is a beautiful park in that
city maintained by taxes which
are borne by the Chinese people.
No Chinese is permitted to enter
the park regardless of his station,
while the vagabond beach comber
is welcomed at any time. Chinese
are not admitted to the clubs of
the foreigner.
The Russian Problem
why the Chinese feel friendly
Russia is easily explained.
The Russians enter the country
n the face of the treatment by
other foreign nations and declare
hat they want to play a fair game
Encouraging the Chinese people
With conditions as they exist.
"At Marking, I interviewed the :
eaders of the Nationalist move :
aent. l asked the leaders if it :
vas true that the B~olshevists were .
Importing the southern move :
lent? They declared, absolutely !
OF, that there was not a word of !
ruth in the statement.
''The Standard Oil company has =
aid large sums of money in adj I
-ance taxes for the support of
he Nationalist movement.
True Christianity
after returning from Marking
o Shanghai, l met so missionaries
If all denominations, whose
churches and schools had
cen burned, and they themselves
l%altreated. To a man, the mis-
.onaries are heartily in favor of
southern movement. They
cleared that they did not consid-
it accountable for the destruct-
n of their homes and institu-
ons. That was the best example
true Christianity that I have
,er observed" said Senator
heeler.
"Peking is interesting for it's
t and culture and high type of
hinese civilization. While there
met the leaders of the northern
rmy, which is backed wholeheart-
dly by the Japanese. The north
IN leader came to Picking with
90 wives, which may account for
is popularity. His son was not
be outdone, so on his appear
ice he was accompanied with 1875

rived without any authentic information
to bolster up a hope that they have not
crashed somewhere at sea. From both

ready Quartoring the air route taken by
the French plane. 1t was expected that
the searChers would be assigned rapidly

fishermen and channel luggers were on
the alert on the chance that the extra
buoyancy Of the French plane may have
kept the men a1oat.
