k|WAN|S CLUB
ADDRESSED BY
CHINA CONSUL

DR.. Chan, Chinese vice-counsel at
Mexicali, was speaker for the day
at the Ell Centre Kiwanis club, be-
ing presented by Earl Cayanah, pre-
sident of the Calexico Kiwanis
club. sponsors of the program.
The speaker gave an interesting
talk comparing conditions in China
with those in the United States to-
day. He pointed out that China has
her problems but that they are diff
ferent from those in the United
States and Europe in particular.
China is a nation of vast terri
tory in which no religion predomin-
ates, religious freedom being one of
the characteristics of its govern
ment. Too many political upheav-
ais are China's difficulty, DR.. Chan
explained, stating that today it is
nationalistic government and that
The people overthrew the monarchy
SO that they might pursue and
achieve more modern country
OF the college graduates, so per
cent graduate from Japan and 40
per cent of these then are sent to
colleges in the United States and
Europe SO that they may learn mo-
dern methods of government and
business.
DR.. Chan gave what he believed
to be the causes of the depression
in this country. He pointed out
that the United States had entered
into a machine age and that young
people reaching maturity had all
effort and responsibility taken
away from them. Instead of being
the masters of the machines, they
are the servants of the machines" ;"
He declared that modern youth
has too much spare time which
takes them away from productive
pursuits. This is far different from
what it is in my country. The work
ing man there is not living like a
prince as here, where big part of
his salary is devoted to pleasures
and luxurieS. When the depression
came he was no longer able to main
tain his radio, his cinemas, his the
aires, to pay for machines to wash
and iron his shirts, and consequent
ly he feels that he is going back
wards instead of forward
The speaker went on to say that
the leisure time America has is one
Of the greatest problems in the
country today in his opinion. Peo-
pie are continually advocating
shorter hours of labor and more
hours for play. The system is such
that in order to kill time in pleas
ure, the working man must spend
money. 1t is quite unusual, he
said, in other countries to have a
working man travel four to five
hundred miles to see a football
game.
These pleasures the working man
in China must forego as he is COM
PEELED by conditions to apply a
great part of his time to produc-
ton.
Musical numbers were presented
by a group of Calexico Kiwanis
and also by a Negro entertainer.
The program was presented as
a return courtesy from the Calexico
club.
