told you. of a just and powerful gov
eminent represented by a Mandarin
whose rule was wise, but firm. In
much that you have written. Re-
spected. you have conveyed an i'm
preston that the Chinese are cruel

mistake for cruelty is in reality an in
dispensable weapon in the hand of
Justice. One thing l would have you
understand, honored and respected
friend: The Chinese do not fear death.
The electric chair. the axe. the rope -
these expedients of your Western
culture have no terrors for my coun-
trymen. Punishment of the criminal.
therefore is a very difficult problem
with US.
AT the time Of which l wish to
speak, the Mandarin-governor found
himself called upon to deal with
series of river piracies accompanied
by most atrocious murders and serious
loss of property. The pirates. re-

would step before the public execu-
toner in the stone courtyard of the
prison. and with a single sweep of his
sword. he would sever each mans
head from his body" He paused.

yellow expressionless mask.
Among you. of the West. the
public executioner is regarded with
horror. Among us, he was regarded
with fear and respect. He was an i'm
portant official of the State, master
swordsman and fellow of the ancient
Guild. You see. Respected, my coun-
trymen are logical. If the Mandarin
may pronounce the death sentence
with honor. the public executioner
may honorably carry it out. In the
case of these pirates. it was not punish
ment but an elimination of the
undesirable. 1t is of the leaders that

Sam King paused. stood up. and
crossing the room took the mongoose
from its cage. The little creature, to
my surprise, seemed anxious to escape
from its master; its ferrety eyes kept
darting into another corner of the
room. But old Sam held it firmly, and
returned to his chair. resting the
feverishly active little beast upon his
blue-robed knee.
l thought he was about to speak
again. but instead he sat, head tilted
slightly backward, and seemed to be
listening. I. too, began to listen.

The Island Maid was Louis's ship,
but in Sans softly spoken words
could detect neither regret nor sad
ness. But l Immediately jumped to
the conclusion that the farewells of
Josie, to which he had referred. had
probably taken place on board the
Island Maid. so that in the course of

Sam King stood up quietly.
"Ah. Emperor, Emperor" he
crooned. why are you so restless?

Thus one who by evil counsel had

Spain Warns Nations
Not to Interfere

CPAIN'S representative in the
- League of Nations, Foreign Min
lister Julio Alvarez del Vayo, SOL
emnly warned other nations mem
bers of that body that they must not
interfere with the Spanish civil war,
which he said forbode a future war,
not between states but between po-
litical concepts.
THE bloodstained soil of Spain
already is the battlefield of world
war;" he contended in what other
delegates construed as an attack
on Germany, Italy and Portugal for
allegedly arming the Spanish Fas-
cist insurgents. He assailed the Eu-
ropean nonintervention agreement
as direct and positive interven-
ton in behalf of the rebels" and
as a BLOCKADE of the lawful Span
ish government"
British Foreign Minister Anthony
Eden, in a rather pessimistic ad-
dress, said his government stood
for an amendment to the league
covenant to enable the league to
intervene in the early stages of a
dispute. He also proposed: Negoti-
alton of regional pacts, separation
of the league covenant from post
war treaties, measures to restore
international trade; inquiry, under
league auspices, into the question
of access to raw materials, and re-
duction and limitation of arma-
ments and publicity for armament
expenditures.
