FAR EAST WILL
DECIDE WORLD
PEACE OR WAR
Editor Sees Russia, China
and Japan Sparring for
Manchuria. 3
BY MAX STERN
Times stan Correspondent


SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 6. -
'Uror the solution found and ap-
piled to problems in the Far East In
the next decade or two depends
world peace"
So concludes William Philip
simms, foreign editor Of the
Scripps- Howard newspapers, fol-
lowing a five-month tour Of the
orient under auspices Of the Car
negie Foundation for World Peace.
Sjnns. with one other correspon-
ent. left the Carnegie party Of jour
nalists en- route home at Nagasakl,
braved hardships of Manchurian
travel and saw the Russo-Chnese
''War" at first hand.
At Manchuli, 600 miles north
west of Hardin, he saw between
10000 and 100000 Soviet troops lined
in battle array against some 10000
Chinese, the former armed Win
airplanes, tanks and other modern
ornaments, the latter pitifully out
numbered.
Will Settle Nothing
"The settlement Of the present
DISPUTE between Russia and China
really will settle nothing, and the
peace VIII be only truce" he said
"Russia never will give up her
dream of empire in Asia. Even the
nresent dictators in Moscow look
mon Mongolia and northern Man
churia. as their sphere OF influence
and plan to consolidate their posi-
tion there before they finish.
soToday three nations face one
another in Manchuria and Mon
COLA. These are Russia, China and
.Tanan. China claims the territory
os hers. Russia has economic and
POLITICAL interests so to cause her
to keep up g steady stream OF anti
Chinese and pro-RusSian propa-
ganda there.
And Japan, having defeated Rus
sia in war and spent since then
some $1,000 100000 developing mid
die and south Manchuria, looks to
that part of Asia as vital to her ex-
jstence as an empire and plans to
STAY there at any cost"
Sims says that Japan probably
was the deciding factor in the re-
cent settlement" that while Russia
may have decided she could lick
China she could not lick Japan too.
China Is the Hub
China, Sims says, is the hub about
which future woodworking events
will take place. Nationalist there
has come to stay and will grow
like a SNOWFALL"
"Those who believe this movement
was born in Moscow and that China
is going red are clear off the track"
he declares. "Nationalism in China
antedated Russian communism by
at least five years. The movement
is bigger than any man or group
of men in China, for it is part and
marcel of a worldwide phenomenon
of the submerged trying to get to
the surface and determined at all
costs to get there.
ct is like a rising tide which
waves on the surface that come
and go. Leaders in China may rise
end fall, parties be created and de-
stAoyed. but the sloW-mov1ng TIDE
will 90 on rising all the time"

whatever to the limitations OF this
preliminary treaty. 1t was simply de-
creed that Germany was to be held
liable for all the Allies' costs incur
red in the war. The basis for this
action was furnished by the thesis of
Germany's guilt for the! war-an I'M
scrupulously invented lie. German
reparations already delivered and
the Losses of territory incurred
through the dictate Of Versailles ex-
coed many times the sums estimat-
ed by Keynes and NTH, and still
there IL no end in sight.
During the negotiations which
are about to be opened it should be
remembered and again and again
emphasized that there is in exis-
tence . preliminary treaty which
was treated az a scrap of paper !:
also. that there Is no such thing as n
German responsibility for the war,
upon which the reparations stand or
fall"
This logically led to a discussion
of the war guilt question as viewed
by the former monarch.
Does his majesty see any evil
dence Of a change of public opinion
outside OF Germany in estimating
Germany's guilt for the war. as
compared with the views current in
1892" Baron Won Sell was asked.
Most decidedly his majesty
does" was his rejoinder. How could
it be otherwise For, the documents
published since 1919 from German,
Russian. Serbian and other archives
have long brought irrefutable proof
that the thesis of Germany's respon-
sibility for the outbreak of the war
is no longer tenable."
England's Hunger blockade
The discussion turned to the
charge of Germany's method Of con-
Quoting the war. which finds express
sion In the phrase. used in Yer
satlles. alleging that Germany is re-
sponsible "likewise for the cruel and
inhumane manner in which the wal
was conducted"
Baron Van Sell was asked: This
concerns his majesty in a very par
ticular manner; what has he TO say
in reply?"
The Baron replied: Il see anew
from your question that the effects
of the propaganda concerning wal
atrocities have not yet died out

The local roller hockey quintet

row in two important games. II the
locals win these two. they will be
80 much closer to the Albany team.
New Britain stands tied with Albany
in the number of games won but 1t
las lost more than the Empire State
tive.
Providence and Fail River both
appear to be able to defeat the best
quintets in the league. Both of these
teams have been strengthened con-
siderably in recent weeks and at the
present time they both possess pow
erful offensives.
Tho reason has SO far progressed
that a final drive for the pennant is
in prospect. The New Britain team
shapes up as one of the most logical
rontenders for the championship in
the entire circuit. II the locals have
good enough luck, they should make
the race rather interesting for all
concerned.

Fred the best quintets in the circuit

chopper, was fatally injured last Fri
day when the limb Of tree fell upon

died soon after reaching a Worcester
hospital.
Racine was working fer Walter
Pratt, who lives just over the Wood
stock line. A companion was saving
a heavy limb from tree. AS the limb
was about to fall shout of warning
was given Racine, who stood directly
below the heavy branch. Racine APP
parently did not hear the shout and
the limb felled him to the ground.
He was sisted to the house by MS
fellow empIoye and his employer. A
doctor was summoned and aeeompan-
led the injured man to the hospital
where Il was found his skull was frae-
tured. his collar bone broken, and that
he was suffering from internal IN
