/. PEACE OF CHINA
Book Says Character OF
People Is StabiIizing
Factor of Asia.

BS the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. September 1.-THE
main stabiIzing factor Of Asia, In
the opinion Of Henry L. stimson,
former Secretary Of State, IS the "es-
sentially peaceful character" OF China.
"Its loss," he says in q book pdb-
ished today, would be blow which
would directly affect the peace Of her
aeighbors, including America.
"It would be . very short-sighted
policy If that loss should come
through disregard Of its treaty obli-
cations by the American Govern
ment."
The book. "The Far Eastern Crisis,
Recollections and Observations" says
The underlying purposes Of America S
policy during Japan's aggression in
Manchuria were, first, to preserve
Americas future friendly relations
With China by fulfilling treaty obliga-
ions; second, to preserve the founda-
ions Of cooperative action for the
preservation of peace il the world
1.-THE future of China" Mr.. stimson
lays, "is one of the great problems
# the ages. But one thing Is clear
the must develop in her own way
She cannot be dominated or driven
by outside force into an alien or unde-
tired form Of evolution"
Pointing to the necessity Of future
Cooperation with Great Britain
stimson says upon that country will

tnlng: lack OF framing IN cnarm, at home.
Or to put it bluntly - neglect. Neglect in
this sense, however, has nothing whatever
to do with the question of child's physical
care because of lack of means; nor is it neg
lect of potential talents and accomplishments
because of his parents inability to teach him
better than they know.
The neglect which would like to empha-
size is solely that of certain normally COM
petent parents of this modern day, who are
too self-centered or too thoughtless to pay
attention to the sort of men and women their
children will turn out to be.
Letters from summer resorts about detest-
able children have been sent me every sum-
mer, but never made them the subject of
an article before, because thought the in
cidents described were too exaggerated to be
typical. But this year countless readers have
told me the selfsame story about the spoiled,
unframed nuisance of a child who is it would
seem, encountered in almost every summer
resort hotel. As one reader put it: "If Mrs.
Hairless were herself an uncouth vulgar
woman, it would be easy enough to under
stand that her child would be a noisy, OBJ
streperous pest. But that a woman, who her
self is charmingly well-behaved, can be
blandly unconscious of Cissy's abominable
behavior, is past understanding
To this really don't know the answer.
That is. don't know what it is that makes
certain parents insensitive to the faults of
their children; or how, for example, to ac-
count for the phenomena of mother who
looks perfectly contented while Cissy calls
out to the waiter and gives her order first,
naming just about everything on the bill of
fare. and then iritably interrupting her
mothers order with: "Oh hurry up! No WON
Evening star., 1936-10-11

Inculcating admirable traits in a child is
no simple accomplishment! Let no one think
50! To order Johnny to be truthful, to be
fair, to be tolerant, to be industrious, to be
courteous, to be kind. is a waste of breath -
worse than that, it makes all these virtues
a mockery - if the mother and father who
preach these maxims fail to exact their OBJ
servance by their child or if they themselves
fail to illustrate them.
Perpetual faultfmdng is just as demoral-
izing as overindulgence. Children who live in
an atmosphere of soolding become used to it
just as worhmen in factory become used to
the noise ofmachinery- y-and pay no attention.
The mother who skillfully trains her chill
dren in charm does not encourage conscious
effort to be charming. The very Last thing
she could want them to do would be to think
of themselves as though they were looking
in mirror. She teaches them to take proper
pride in the thing done, rather than in them
selves for doing it.
Mary's arrangements of flowers are lovely
because of the added beauty to the flowers.
The toy boat made by Johnny is followed
with interest as to how fast it will SAIL
Courteous manners are shown to visitors, not
so that visitors will be impressed by the
charm of well-behaved children, but because
visitors would naturally feel sighted or un-
comfortable or unhappy otherwise. Mary
asks: Would you like to sit here? Am I
reading the paper you want, Father?" And
without realizing that he is doing SO. Johnny
exclaims: Let me carry that for you. Mother"
Ideal training in charm at home is de-
pendent not so much upon the definite rules
of behavior that are taught, as upon the
spontaneous responsiveness and the mfailing
spirit of kindness shown by members of the
family to each other and. therefore, shown
instinctively to guests or strangers; rather than
the wrong way round of learning company
Manners and then using left over scraps of
these at home

on the other hand their incompatibility, the
mfairness Of one to the other possibly even
wrangling or ill-concealed contempt, that give
their children advantages above price, or take
from them everything of beauty that the
word Home connotes.
In short training in charm at home is a
long, long process. which goes slowly ahead
or very often stands still, but never falls back
in any of the real points. This question of
real points" is perhaps the crm of the en-
tire secret of the successful vs. unsuccessful
training. The parent who fails is most often
one who has no sense of proportion. He for
bids or makes fuss about little things of no
moment and has no words left for the big
things involving principle and character,
taste and point of view.
The parents who succeed are those who
establish an understanding relationship by
which each respects the things that the other
considers important. The mother takes
definite stand. Above all others, she exacts
as fundamental principles: truth and the
keeping of promise. If Johnny commits
fault but does not fail in these, then these
same principles are friends whom he can call
in his defense. He in turn exacts the same
adherence to truth and to promise on his
mothers part. 1t might actually wreck the
foundation of his character should she fail
him in either.
