Exploitation

The western world has had a
rather enjoyable time lording it over
China. Her cheap labor made it pos
a low price, while her helpless con-
dition made it possible to force
faith, opium and other things down
her throat.
Napoleon seems to have been
about the only statesman of his time
who realized what the 'end Of the
game might be. He said China was
a sleeping giant and those should
be aware who walked her.
AS a matter of common sense,
the western world has been telling
her she ought to do for a century,
abandoning her Anticipated form Of
government, discarding her stupid
customs and traditions, undertaking
to be modern in politics and trade.
We are appalled, at the first step
of the process. The chaos and con-
fusion 1t involves leaves us be-
wildered. For some asinine reason
we expect China to become Christian
instead of heather, a republic in
stead of a monarchy without dis
turbance. 1t all goes back to the
idea that Chinese names were too
hard to pronounce. We have pre-
tended that we are interested in
China herself, that we wanted to see
L. IL. Of 10.
own affairs. AS a matter of fact, We
were interested in very little except
what we could buy from China at a
cheap price on the one hand and sell
to her at high price, on the other.
1t Takes Time
The Chinese revolution of 1911
caught the world completely off
guard. Very few people suspected
that such a thing could occur, much
less that 1t would.
Instead of waiting to see what the
revolution really amounted to, how
ever, we jumped at the conclusion
that it was all its sponsors claimed
for it, that China had changed from
a 4,000-year-old despotism to an up
to-date republic over night and that
other nations faced no greater prob
lem than to adjust themselves TO
the new condition.
II took the English people 500
years to substitute a workable
democracy for a monarchy. Latin
America has been trying to do the
same thing for more than 100 years
with only partial success. China
had farther to go than either; 1t was
preposterous to suppose that she
could do it in less time.
If we hadn't found those names
so hard to pronounce we would have
guessed as much.

American People Will Find
it Necessary to Take
China Seriously,
By NJ. L. Tracy

The American people are not as
interested in the Chinese situation
as they ought to be or as they will
find it necessary to be some day.
Several writer's have explained
this on the ground that the names
of cities and leaders are too hard to
pronounce. What a pity it is that
the western world couldn't have fore
seen such a difficulty before it
meddled in Chinese affairs.

(Continued From Page Six.)

some courts have held, though there are decisions to the contrary, that statute imposing imprisonment as punishment of person for obtaining money or other things of value under written contract for the perform ance of work, and who, without mak- ing restitution, and without just cause, refuses to perform, is valid. While such a law might be enacted by this Legislature, it could not be made applicable to contracts executed in another jurisdiction, and therefore would not reach but few of the con- tracts here involved. It is to be not ed, however, that the State of Wash ington, and possibly other Pacific Coast states, have laws denouncing as a crime the fraudulent obtaining of transportation under promise of performing work in return. But the Territorial legislature could provide for the recovery of heavy punitive damages where an employee without just cause violates his contract, and provide that the exemption from at- tachment or execution granted by general statutes should not be availa- ble to defendants in such cases. It is also probable that, by cooperation between the Labor Commissioner of Alaska and the Labor Commissioners of the various Pacific Coast states, much can be accomplished by way of new remedial legislation as we'll as otherwise to protect both employer and employee.
