contributions from labor, money to
enthrall and enslave labor. It has
robbed the home of pennies in order
to control the necessaries of life of
every family in the land.
All this is being exposed by the
federal trade commission. The demo-
cratic leaders at Houston are fully
aware of what is going on and Of
what is being brought out daily. They
are afraid that if they denounce this
trust they will dry up the golden
source of revenue which, under our

Norris asserted that voters are
helpless as forming a new party or
entering an independent ticket is too
expensive for ordinary citizens.

JAPAN ANGRY OVER TREATY

JAPAN ANGRY OVER TREATY
Toxic, July 31.-Secretary Kel-
logg's note to China welcoming revi-
sion of tariff treaties probably will
develop criticism from the newspa-
pers of Japan and other countries i'll
terested in China. However, the opin-
ion here is that this will largely be
inspired by disappointment or resent
ment that the United States has Ia
ken the lead.
Japan, particularly, would have
liked to play the role the United
States has taken, but events have
broken badly for this country. All
her efforts to develop friendship thru
Cancellation, at least for the time be-
ing, are destroyed and China holds
numerous complications for local
statesmen.
China is Japan's largest customer
for manufactured products. In Man
churia, Japan has invested almost a
billion dollars and the relative value
can be estimated when it is consider
ed that this country's wealth is about
One-fifteenth that of United States.
While Japan is most anxious to ne
gotiate a new treaty with the Chi
nese, she feels it impossible to accept
Chima's Interpretation that the pres
ent commercial treaty has expired,
putting her entire commerce at che
mercy of Chinese regulations regard
ing which she has not been consult
ed.
If the Chinese really had respon.
sible government they would accep
a continuation of the present treaty
For limited period pending negotia.
tions. But it is difficult for the Chi
nese to be reasonable at present
when they are dominated by senti-
ments and emotions especially in their
foreign relations.
A United Aspiration
1t is unquestionable that the Chi
nese, regardless of fractional disputes
over territorialy divisions, are united
In their aspirations. Furthermore, it
has been demonstrated that there is
a real public opinion in China, which
even the militaristic tuchuns cannot
ignore.
Secretary Kellogg's note displayed
wisdom and understanding of the sit
uatiOn and it undoubtedly will be
lastingly appreciated by the Chinese
as a token Of real friendship in their
determination of sovereignty. Nor is
Secretary Kellogg's optimism in a
new and unified China in process of
emerging" unwarranted, for the kuo-
mintang has some able leaders,
among whom DR.. G. C. WI, who now
is at Washington, Is an outstanding
example. -. 9

per cent of the acreage was covered,

ed by an administration which nc
longer represents the China of today
1t is a matter of regret here tina!
for the second time in five years the
United States was first among west
em powers to recognize the economic
independence of Asiatic countries.
America was first to agree to aboi-
ition Of capitulatory rights for Tur-
key and now agrees to free China
from the heavy economic bonds i'm
posed upon her by the western powers
years ago.
British Can't Understand
For a capitalistic power, this atti-
tude seems to the British unpardon-
able. The real reason, however, for
the outburst of Indignation is the fact
that the Kellogg note is bound to
win immense popularity for the Unit
ed States among the Chinese and that
it is feared will be translated into
preference for American goods.
"The Kellogg note is in fact fine
introduction for American travellers, !"
said one commentator.
A second advantage of the Ameri-
can note is its distinct political adj
vantage, since it will lead to replac-
ing Japanese influence, thus greatly
strengthening Americas world pow
er. Close relations between the Unit
ed States and China might give
America within the next Is or. 20
years an unchallenged domination
over the Pacific.
