STUDY OF CHINESE BOYCOTTS With
Special Reference to Their Economic Ef-
fectiveness. BY @. F. Remer, with the
assistance Of William b. Palmer. Baltimore:
The Johns Hopkins Press
THE boycott is . method Of passive resistance
Of which the Chinese have long taken ID
vantage in opposing what they consider m
justices. Foreign nations against whose trade
the boycott has been employed have dreaded
and protested it. Doubts have arisen, however,
enectS. The most important OF the bOycottS
against the trade Of any nation. This scholarly
study Of the question by . professor Of eco-
nomics IN the University Of Michigan, assisted
by an instructor in economies in the same
institution, investigates the various Chinese
boycotts With Q view TO discovering their actual
effects. The most importance Of the boycotts
have been those against America in 1905,
against Japan in 1905 the one used Is pro-
test against the Fl demands In 1915, the one
over the shantung question, 1s1s-1s21; against
Japan. Great Britain and Hongkong, l925-26:
against Japan, 1928-29; the great boycott
against Japan and the boycott at Geneva IN
1891. The authors conclude that the boycott
has . certain but not . complete efficiency. =
is . useful form Of publicity, has powerful psy-
Geological effects, has succeeded In correcting
some abuses. "Boycotting by a single nation
IS like the labor strike. The threat to strike -
powerful; the strike itself Is likely to be costly
and tnefncient" But II, as Is almost certain,
coercion continues to play q part in interna-
tonal relations, the boycott, further developed,
may como to take the place Of war.

Fifty Famous
F'rOntiersmen
The "Original Buffalo Bill"
ELMO SCOTT WATSON

a SIX the average American who
IA was the original Buffalo Bill"
and he will answer, "Why, william
F. Cody. of counsel" But he's
wrong. For there were at least
two men who bore that title long
before Cody made 1t world-famous.
One of them was William Mat
thewson of Wichita, Kan. Accord
ing to the story, in 1860, the year
of the great drought. when grass
hoppers blackened the skies and
ate up all the crops, the early set
tiers of that section would have
starved had 1t not been for Mat
%thewson, a buffalo hunter, who went
out repeatedly and sent back wagon
loads of buffalo meat to feed them.
In gratitude for this they gave him
the title of Buffalo Bill"
Another just claimant to the title,
In that the application Of it to him
antedated its application to Cody,
was William Comstock, a native of
Wisconsin who was something of
a mystery man" of the frontier.
Comstock had been a pony express
rider and In the late sixties he was
owner of q ranch on Rose creek
near Fort Wallace, Kan. He served
as a scout and guide during the In
dian war on the southern plains In
1S67-69 and had gained such re-
nown as a buffalo hunter that the
officers at Fort Wallace called him
Buffalo Bill" Comstock.
In the meantime William f. Cody,
who had done some scouting for
the troops at Fort Ellsworth and
Fort Fletcher, had become a hunter
for the contractors who were sup.
plying the meat for the laborers
then building the Kansas Pacific
railroad westward. Cody's sue.
cess as a hunter led to his being
dubbed Buffalo Bill" by the labor
ers.
Then followed the famous buff
falo-killing match between Cody and
Comstock, arranged by the army Of
ficers at Forts Wallace and Hays,
for 1.-THE championship of the world"
and Cody, having won the match,
was hailed as THE Buffalo BILL" a
title which the public soon con-
firmed. But this does not mean
that he was 1.-THE original Buffalo
Bill" Both William Matthewson
and William Comstock had a better
right than Cody to that title.
The end of Matthewson Is I'M
known, but Comstock's career ended
tragically a few months after his
match with Cody when he fell a vic.
tim to Indian treachery in the camp
