circulating stories no matter how
true they might be.
Finally, however, the truth came
to be more and more widely dis
seminated, and the papers and
magazines were filled with stories
from writer's returning to America
and freed from the bond of censor
ship. To some degree, the Chinese
now realize that too much censor
ship has hurt them.
Threatened With Collapse
Personally think this publicity
has served to help rather than hurt.
In any case, the time came when
something had to be done. China
was threatened with collapse right
at the moment when bases within
her territory were becoming vital in
the final assault on Japan.
A courtesy visit from a high off,
cial became not only a wise move
but a necessity, and there are
reasons, not Immediately evident on
the surface, why Vice President
Wallace's trip may do much to allie
viate Chinas difficulties.
In the first place, whatever you
may think of the views expressed
by Vice President Wallace or how
well you think you understand them,
the Chinese believe first, that he
symbolizes the traditional friendship
of America for China; and second,
that he understands their problems.
Then there is another vital factor,
important from the standpoint of the
morale of the Chinese people and
their support of the present govern
ment, Mr.. Wallace is the second
highest officer of our government.
Face counts high in the Far East.
This official visit will give face to
the Chungking government
1t is clear that these factors are
psychological and the intelligent
Chinese, who are exceedingly wise
in such matters, realize that fact,
and count upon it highly.
They feel, too, (from a more
practical standpoinD that the Wal
lace visit will tend to increase
American public interest in China
and her troubles and will facilitate
the efforts on the part of their diplo-
mats to receive the goods they
want.

Hopeful Tinge

That is the reason that almost
overnight, the atmosphere surround
ing Sino-America contacts in Wash
ington has taken on a more hopeful
tinge. And the optimism of the
Chinese has been greatly helped by
the success of the Chinese troops
fighting under General StilWell and
the Chinese offensive moving out of
China toward a contact with Still
wells army.
This military operation too, will
be more than mere military VIC
tory, if it is successful. Again, the
psychological element is important.
Success in Burma means the juno
ture of the Ledo and Burma roads.
There are many miles of road con-
struction to be completed before the
two highways are actually carrying
heavy traffic over them but, never
theless, when they are joined, a
severed artery will be mended, a
wound will be healed. The moment
the first allied work trucks begin to
thread their way along this highway
over an unrestricted route from and
to the outside world, it will be as
if fresh air were once more reach
ing lungs strangling for breath.
When the two highways are
actually joined, they will soon be in
operation, for much American tech
nical engineering skill has been
spent on the Burma road within
China and its carrying capacity
will be greatly increased.
The arrival of the first truck-borne
piece of freight and the handclasp
| of the Generalissimo and Vice Presi-
dent Wallace will be more than a
political gesture, it will be renewal
of the friendship which has meant
so much to China for more than a
century and half.

PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: One of the things that's
been cropping out in talks with
folks up and down Parish Street
who are well acquainted with its
ways and habits is the growing
number of kids, both boys and
girls seen here and there and
around during school hours. In
a conversation with some fellows
while in the midst of our regular
Saturday Night ceremonial some
body brought up the subject again,
and in that connection the Parent
Teachers Association was mention
ed as the best possible agency, for
attacking that problem. Then the
ncme of the late Mrs. Divers, wife
of a former pastor of Pearl Street
Church came up, and the fine
contribution she had made to
the community life, and particu-
larry with respects to the Parent
Teachers Association. In this ele-
nent of kids of both sexes al
ways up and down Parish Street
arc the seeds of delinquency. In
the very first place, most of them
should be in school and it would
seem that this would be one of
the most important jobs of the
Parent Teachers Association, see
ing that these kids get in school.
Can 1t be that there is no woman
In the community who is ready to
be nominated to take the place of
Mrs. Divers-and while leading the
effort TO get these kids in school
add lasting glory and honor to
her memory?

WEEKLY QUOTATION: THE
world must be made safe for
democracy. It's peace must be
planted upon the tested founda-
tons of political liberty. We have
no selfish ends to serve. We de-
sire no conquest, no dominion. We
seek no indemnities for ourselves,
no material compensation for the
sacrifices we shall freely make. We

the rights of mankind. We shall
be satisfied when those rights have
been made as secure as the faith
and the freedom of nations can
make them. "-WoodroW Wilson.

marvellous Marty Marion swept the
ST. Louis Cardinals, eight times
champions of the national league,
into their fifth worlds series title.
This was conviacingly shown to-
day in the statistics of the six
game series as the 1914 baseball
classic passed into history, leav-
ing half of St. Louis happy the
other half sad.
With the Browns leading two VIC
tories to one, the Cardinals sud-
denly rocketed out of their falter-
ing start, and swept through the
fourth, fifth and sixth games to
a series victory. four games to
two. The Browns won the first and
third games.

That a game between the series

year have been pretty feeble in
spite of the tees used.
That, as a long-range prediction,
We think the Tulsa-Iowa pre-flight

That there will be a 10 of sec
ond guessing now as to how the
Detroit Tigers would have Jared
against the Cardinals in the series.
Most so-called experts figured the
Tigers would be able to put up
better battle than the Browns.
That the defeat of Navy, with SO
many really good players it
doesn't know what to do with
them, by North Carolina preflight
again shows that as long as they
allow each team only IL men on
the field at a time any team has
a chance if it has II good, durable
men.
That the Browns all season, and
in the series, have played like a
scrambling golfer W somehow
manages to come up with his pars.
After all, all you have to do is
put the score on the card; you
don't have to explain how you did
it. -
