“FUNG KEI LIU GIVES CHINA’S|
HOPES FOR CONFERENCE.
Specially Contributed by Faing Kei Liu, ’22
The eatliest conception of China for
an Ameérican child is that of a country
which, can be reached if he digs deep
enough a hole in the ground. The con-
cept is so popular among children that
it still amuses us when we sing that
“China will catch fire whén the sun‘ goes
down.” Later a ‘more mature concept
comes to take the place of the childish
imagination, and we all see that China
is one of the oldest countries and has
had a long period of history. and. her
people have taken great pride in their |
But..what.is.China
today? ,
“The world will have no peace until].
the Far Eastern questions -are settled,”
Such a statement is hard for an Amer-
ican to realize, but it is ‘an absolute
truth in the mind of many Chinese peo-
ple. The genuine sef€lement of such
questions will involve a great upheaval
of secret treaties, reinterpretation of
ambiguous ‘agreements, and the change
of many peace terms fhat have hitherto
existed betweeti. many countries and
China. Many. Chinese -people have un-
fortunately knowh the situation too well
to foster much, hope for an easy settle-
ment. In my early school days many
educated Chinese launched their hope in
the next generation. They taught schools
and made the children realize very early
what each treaty means. “Equip your-
selves with the armours of modern
knowledge and prepare yourselves to
fight. The gunning use of might alone
will win back your rights.” Such was
the daily teaching for many a young
child. Now the nations whose names
have been associated with those hateful] -
treaties are to settle the Far Eastern
questions. Are they going to give jus-
tice to China? I am afraid it is highly
doubtful ‘to the intelligent population of
China. But_it is plain that some of these
nations are tired of war. .Can they secure
peace by settling the Far Eastern ques-
tion without giving China a fair treat-
ment? “Yes, they may at least think
so,” some Chinese will answer with y
trembling tone. “Under some disguised
name they-may make China more than
ever an international prey; but divide it
equally among themselves “in order to
avoid further conflict.” Such fear is the}
natural outcome of a long suffering ill-
But the national senti-
ment is stronger than ever. Chinese
people believe in working together as a
unit. Their faith and hope for this con-
- ference to observe the principal of jus-
tice has not entirely gone. The National
Diplomatic League, the National Stu-
dent Patriotic League, the National
‘Bankers’ Association, and the National
Business Associgtion have expressed
their united opinion for the delegates to.
bring over to Washington. All these
associations afe in session to disctss
methods for backing up our demand.
All these point to the fact that the|
Chinese are determined for justice. If
their voices are disregarded, these who | .
‘HISTORY CLUB TEMPORARI
_ WITHOUT A LABEL:
The History Club has voted to be. the
History Club no longer. At a meeting last
week it was decided to change the name
of the Club, but as none of the suggestions
e
bers, the Club is remaining nameless until
its next meeting, when the matter will come
tp again,
Since the members voted unanimously to
join the Intercollegiate Liberal League,, it
is possible that Liberal .Club will be the |
new name adopted, though this is not gen-|
erally favored, according to Miss Josephine.
Fisher, president of the Club. The Inter-
collegiate Liberal League, of which’J, Bur-
gess, 22, is an executive officer, was started
last. year to. promote fearless. and open-
minded discussion at the colleges. .
The Club further decided to invite Miss
Haskins, of the Friends’ Famine Relief, to}.
talk about Russia on December 10, Miss
Haskins‘addressed a small group of faculty
and graduates here two weeks ago, and was
exceedingly interesting, according to Dr.
Grey, professor of: history, who spoke in
chapel about her talk. Miss Haskihs feels,
Dr. Grey said, that the feeding of children
only, as carriéd on under the Hoover Re-
lief, is. short. sighted, as the adults are es-
sential to the raising of a new harvest.
The only thing that is needed to get gov-
ernment assistance for Russia from this
country is the assurance that public opin-
ion. is not wholly indifferent.
make up one-fourth of:all the inhabitanfs
in this earth will seek other means of
settlement sooner or later, © |
I am grateful to see that the confer-| =
ence has given a hearing to Minister
Sze’s ten points for the settlement of the
Far Eastern questions. They. are broad
and. far- reaching terms as poitited out
in ‘the New York Times .for..November
17. But ‘these questions center largely
in China. While the Chinese thinking
.world is advanced enough and the grow-
ing national sentiment is strong enough
to offer stout opposition to further im-
position, China is too crippled to bring
about rapid material advancement. .Rad-
ical changes have to be brought about
to put China back to her own feet and
thus end the world’s envy. How much
the conference is going to accomplish
actually will be proved by time. But
it is inspiring to hear how France has
already expressed her sympathy and
promised to give up many of her priv-
ileges in China if the other powers will
do the same...
In closing let me express my great
joy to see that a sub-committee of nine
have been appointed to study the Far
Eastern questions. If these committees
will be able to bring to the public eye
the real questions of the Far East, they
will at least pave the way thereby for
a sympathetic settlement of those ques-
tions in later days.
