China’s Diffivulties
John MacMurray Conducted
‘Meeting of. International
Relations Club
CHINA. IS NOT ANARCHY
Mr. John V. A. MacMurray, for-
mer U.S. Minister to. China, and
now a professor at Johns Hopkins
University, conducted the first meet-
ing of the new International Rela-
tions Club in the Music Room, Feb.
ruary 11. Taking “China As a Po-
litical Entity” as the subject of. his
address, he pointed out the difficulty
which a people traditionally averse to
vigorous government have naturally
encountered when suddenly’ faced
with the necessity~ of re their
place in the modern family of na-
tions.
China, as the oldest extant civili-
‘ gation, Mr. MacMurray said, has pro.
duced one of the most fascinating and
compelling of world cultures. The
mass of the people, living close to the
soil, show an adaptability and pre-
eminently human quality which has
enabled them to survive through thou-
sands of years with little or no
change in their ideas. One of the
constants of their traditional civili-
zation is a peculiar attitude toward
government as a nuisance which had
to be tolerated for the preservation
of order. The Emperor was not an
Oriental potentate, but merely-a-cere-
monial officer whose meagre power
was limited by passive resistance and
frequent rebellion.
This spirit of philosophic anarchy
was possible in China while she re-
mained isolated, but her sudden con-
tact with the greater material wealth
and power of the Western world has
abruptly opposed contrasted Occiden-
tal activism with Oriental passivity,
Western -social coherence, with Chi-
nese individualism. The Chinese in-
stinctively resisted change so stub-
bornly that the determination of the
effete Ching dynasty to foster the
process of modernization proved its
downfall in 1911. At the time of this
revolution, Chinese students who had
been educated in America attempted
to set up a republic, but such a form
of government, of course, only sue
ceeds with a people which has been
trained for generations in the re-
sponsibilities of a democracy.. The
first result of the upheaval was there-
fore the emergence of a dictator—
Yoan Shih-Kai. When he disappear-
ed from the scene, only a military
system remained. For twenty odd
years, Chinese political history has
been merely the story of the selfish
rivalry of military leaders seeking
power.

Shaw Comedy to be
, Dramat’s Spring Play
Easter Mystery to be Given Out-
of-Doors is Next Offer-
ing of Players
PRINCETON MAY ASSIST
The outline of the spring plans_of
both—the—Varsity—-Players.and--the
Varsity Dramatics Board has been
settled tentatively, pending confirma
tion from the Dean’s and the Presi-
dent’s offices, as to dates and choice
The Players intend to pro-
duce only one more play: probably
an Easter Mystery from one of the
old English cycles. This will be done
of plays.
under the direction of Miss Evelyn
Thompson and Miss Eleanor Eck-
stein, with the assistance of Dr. Enid
Glen, of the English departmént. It
is hoped that the play can be done
out-of-doors, either on Merion Com-
mon or in the cloisters, and that it
can be done with many folk-dances
and entreact divertissements, as the
plays were done originally. The
Players have felt that the coming ot
the French Club play and the Fresh-
man Show so close upon each other in
March ‘left very little time for one-
act plays. They have consequently
decided upon this rather ambitious
piece of work as their sole offering
for the rest of the year, and set the
date for it sometime in the last week
before spring vacation.
The Dramatic Board has set as the
date for their big spring play, the
twenty-first and twenty-second of
April. The play this year will prob-
ably be a Shaw comedy, but the act-
ual play has not yet been chosen.
Heartbreak House and You Never
Can Tell have. been discussed as pos-
sibilities and it is. likely that the
choice lies between the two. It is
hoped ‘that the male parts. will be
taken by individual actors from
Princeton’s Theatre Intime, although
there is to be no formal connection
with that organization. Here again
the details have not yet been made
definite, and -will probably not be set-
tled until”the play has been finally
chosen. One novel feature of the .or-
ganization of this particular play is
that for the first time in any play,
a class is to be given preference in
the casting and the appointing of
production chairmen. Due to the fact
that the last undertaking of the year
is planned for Garden Patty night,
when it is hoped that a Greek trag-
edy will be done outside of Good-
hart in the natural amphitheatre,
and the fact that this play will have
to be done exclusively by underclass-
|| men, it is planned to give seniors
preference in the April play.
The project of the Greek tragedy
sis again a most ambitious ‘one, and
the plans are still vague. | It will
have to be done by the three lower
classes, because the confusion of
graduation week would interfere too
much if seniors were taking part. It
will be done under the direction of
Miss Carrie Schwab and Miss Janet
Barber. Mrs. William Flexner, di-
rector of the Royal Family, has con-
guns to direct the Shaw play, and
possibly to help with the last play
as well. The choice of the Greek play
lies at present betwen the Alcestes
and Iphigenia. and Taurus. The only i eee
definite plans that have been made
are about the production end of it,
for it is pretty well determined that
itis to be done at night, or in the
twilight, in the natural amphithe-
atre, with the stone walls of Good-
hart as a background.
Miss Thomas Speaks’
* for Summer School
School Especially Needed This
Year as Relief of Un-.
employment
MUST-.-FACE. EXPENSES
’ On Sunday evening in the Common
Room. a very interesting meeting was
held to explain to students the in-
spiration, aims, and achievements of
the Bryn Mawr Summer School. The
speakers were President Emeritus M.
Carey Thomas, Mrs. Stokes, chairman
of the Summer School Committee, and
two alumnae of the Summer School.
‘It was a great privilege for the
students who have had no opportun-
ity to meet Miss Thomas since she re-
tired from the presidency of the col-
lege_to hear her speak .on the Sum-
mer School, which grew purely from
her idea. In the summer of 1921
Bryn Mawr opened her halls for
eight weeks of classes in which in-
dustrial women might obtain the same
type of education as do the students
of the regular college. This was the
first attempt of its kind ever made
by—any--American college or univer-
sity.
This year the Summer School faces
a depression more serious than any
which has occurred in former years,
because it extends to all countries of
the world. Because of this very rea-
“son such an effort as the Summer
School needs more help than ‘ever be-
fore. Thirty-seven and a half mil-
lions of people are without sufficient
food and clothing, Through a south-
ern school for industrial women an
appeal has reached us from unem.
ployed workers for books to read in
the free time which they now find
on their hands: Two hundred: dollars
is thé cost ‘of eight weeks’ teaching
for each student, not including trav-
met, and those who have, ever been
associated—with the Summer Schoo}
will agree that nowhere will support
be. more amply repaid. One cannot
help being inspired by the enthusi-
asm and the mental training which re-
sult from having to hold down a
job. :
Considering , that . approximately
nine-tenths of our population . are
workers it. seems as though they
should have as good education as the
one-tenth who do not work. Haphaz-
ard living is no longer economically
possible; from now on the world will
have to be planned. The present gen-
eration will have to legalize birth-
control, -assure equal opportunities,
and abolish sheer profits. The old or-
der of living has decayed; it is up
to us to save what is worth while and
_to establish a “new order of co-opera-
tion and friendship.” When there is
a closer relationship between indus-
try and those “who do not.always do
much work,” it will be a happier
world.
In conclusion, Miss Thomas
the story.o ow the idea of the Sum-
mer School first came to her. Watch-
ing the sunset one night in the Al-
gerian desert she had a vision of how
empty the Bryn Mawr campus must
it filled in the summer with indus-
trial women. Unlike most visions,
everyone approved of it, and the Bryn
Mawr Summer School came _ into
being.
President Park then~ reminded —us
that a week after the undergraduates
leave the campus is filled again. The
summer students have many privi-

Sackville-West to Talk |
on Joyce and Lawrence!
The Honorable V. Sackville-West |
comes as*a lecturer to Bryn Mawr
this week with a literary, political, |
and social background well qualify- |
ing her to discuss James Joyce andj
D. H. Lawrence in‘the light of the)
modern literary spirit.
She is associated with the Blooms-}|
bu.y groups, literary gatherings cen- |
tering about Virginia and Leonard |
Woolf and the Hogarth Press, and in- |
cluding Rebecca West, the Sitwells, |
Lytton Strachey, and E. M. Forster.
Hugh Walpcle has compared her |
‘poetry .to that: of Edith Sitwell and.
her most famous and most English |
poem, The Land, to Maurice Hew.’
lett’s The Song of the Plough. “She |
has done everything in her life...
simply because she thought—it would,
be a delightful thing to do,” and this,
spirit makes her work essentially ro-
mantic and’ yet unsentimental and
real. It is as she herself has written)
in The Future of the Novel, an-essay—
published in the Bookman: ‘“Real-|
ism itself has turned into a school- |
boy’s. irreverent gesture rather appre- |
hensively made under the nose of a|
censor;” but again, she has defined |
the “proper function of fiction” to be |
“the delineation of life as we know)
it.’ She is an intimate friend of |
Virginia Woolf, and is recognized as |
the heroine of the latter’s Orland. |
She was born in 1892 at Knole|
Castle, the ancestral estate in Kent, |
which was a gift of Queen Elizabeth
to her Lord Treasurer, Thomas Sack- |
ville; and she grew up in the atmo-|
sphere of overstuffed, pompous Ed-'
wardian aristocracy. She first estab- |
lished her reputation as a poet in;
1926 with the publication of The,
Land, the poem which was awarded
the Hawthornden Prize in 1927, a lyr-
ical tribute to the English country-
side and the English peasant.
But it.is her intimacy with and un-|
derstanding of the butterfly age be-
fore the war, when Edward was king, '
combined with the largeness of -view
she has gained from her extensive
traveling in Europe and in the East
—to Pérsia, Hungary, Ecuador, Bul-
garia, and Morocco—that; have dis- |
tinguished her ag a novelist, that give |
The Edwardians the charm of a pene- |
trating treatment, finely satirical and
realistic. The poetry of The Edward- |
ians lies in Chevron, the old house,
the romantic history is inherent in
the spirit of the period, and the wit is
the mature amusement of a modern
and a cosmopolitan Englishwoman.
Her other most important book, All
Passion Spent, may be compared with
The Edwardians, not only as a dis-
tinguished novel, but as a work of
beauty, a “witty and lucid excursion
into detachment.”
The Honorable V. Sackville-West is
also the author .of Family History,
Seducers in Ecuador, Twelve Days,
King’s Daughters, and an historical
study of the family house, Knole and
the Sackvilles.. :
Again, Hugh Walpole: “Here, at
any rate, is a most interesting figure,
someone who is gracious, humorous,
and always a creator.”

Industrial Problems
Discusséd in Goodhart
Child Labor and Occupational
Diseases Are Main Topics
of Conference
NEED RAPID LEGISLATION
Friday afternoon a conference was
held in the Auditorium ot Goodhart
on the Standards and Security of
Employment in the Commonwealt® of
The aims and_ back-
ground of the assembled groups were
set forth in the introductory speech
of the- chairman, Mr. John Phillips,
president of the Pennsylvania Fed-
eration of Labor. “It is pretty gen-
| erally accepted that many of the dif-
ticulties confronting, the people at
| large, and acutely affecting the work-
ers_of this Commonwealth in particu-
lar, can be remedied by proper legis-
lation. Secondly, there is now an in-
creased public interest in public mat-
And lastly; most of the legis-
lators are disposed to meet the mat-
ter in a constructive way, although
| we are still confronted by the Bour-
and much_ influence must—be-
brought to bear. to offset the reac-
tionary forces.”
Miss Beatrice McConneil, Director
‘of the Bureau of Women and Chil-
dren of the Pennsylvania Department
of Labor and Industry, was the first
speaker. Significant facts and trends
of Child Labor in the State were ad-
‘duced by her as an “indication of the
importance of Child Labor today and
as showing that the problem is not
being eliminated by the depression
and consequent cutting of wages and
the number of employed, but rather
intensified.””. The general opinion is
that the number of employed children
has dropped to almost nothing. That,
unfortunately, is a false impression,
contradicted by the fact
by children withdrawing
from Pennsylvania schools has swell-
ed. It has been imposible to-make a
wide survey because of the cut in
State appropriations for this work;
but the reduction of employed chil-
dren is only proportional to the re-
duction of adult’ employed.
There has been a change in the
type of work offered the child. Street-
‘trading, which entails juvenile de-
linquency, is rampant, especially in
the larger cities. Domestic service,
unregulated by the Child Labor Law,-
has risen. And last, but not least,
industrial homework, usually done
under high pressure, spasmodically,
is common under the present depres-
sion system of manufacturing as the
orders come in.
“The loss to our children today can-
not be made up tomorrow. The re-
sults of recreation, good food, and
| education are lost today and lost for.
ever.” Miss McConnell’s suggestions
for curing the problem of Child La-
bor were the adoption of a minimum
| wage and age as well as the maxi-
mum number of hours, which is now
|in fdrce:
The next speaker on the program
was Dr. Alice Hamilton, Assistant
Professor of Industrial Medicine at
the Harvard Medical School, talking
on “Occupational Disease With Spe-
cial Reference to Children.’”’ She pro-
pounded the question, “What sort of
child asks for working papers at the
age of fourteen? By and. large, he
or she jis the child of the very poor’
in a household where there has never
been enough«of physical or spiritual
comfort. He is handicapped already
and usually has a damé&ged heart: or
tuberculosis.”
However, children are not often
found in poisonous trades in this
country, except in ,printers’ shops,
where they contract .lead-poisoning.
This is certainly an evil, but small
when compared to the harm ‘done to
working adults. Dr: Hamilton said
that she would change her subject
from that of children to the more —
general subject of Occupational Ris-
ease in Industry as a whole. In prov-

Again the Quota
The time is fast approaching when rooms are to be drawn for next
year, and as yet no official action has been taken on the quota. Under-
neath the surface, however, the adminstrative machinery has been
functioning and it is anticipated that some reforms will be instituted
before the draw in the spring. The entire question of the quota was
put before the College Council last fall, and a special-committee was
formed to examine the facts, and present a program for reorganization.
to the Council. This report is now in the hands of the administration
and so is to be laid before the campus representatives at the next
Council meeting which takes place the first Wednesday in March.
Thus the campaign started by the News last fall to revise the quota
has not_ come. to a stand-still, and. results should. be forthcoming in
time to simplify the rooming plans for next year.
It. is to be hoped that some decisive action will be taken on this
question, but the obstacles in the path of any sweeping reform are
numerous, The administration: is definitely opposed to any changes
which would permit class halls _to_arise,or which would destroy the
democratic spirit of the college. The News realizes the inadvisability
of grouping classes by halls, but we feel that, discounting the regula-
tions necessary to prevent extremes, students should be allowed free-
dom in choosing their ,place of residence. One of the most popular
suggestions presented is that the quota per class for each hall be main-
tained unchanged throughout'each year, instead of being reduced in
the event a stndent drops out. Under the present system, if a student
drops out of a hall during the summer, she creates only a fifth of a
vacancy in each of the five halls, instead of a whole vacaney in the
hall from which she withdrew. This means that until five persons leave
college there are only fractional vacancies in the halls, and no one can
move in. If the quota should remain set, each withdrawal would per-
mit a student to move in and fill the empty room. Some means of
remedying the inequality of some classes in halls on campus is alko
being worked out. “And it has been proposed that the Pembrokes, be-
cause of their common dining hall and general social connection be
made into one hall under the quota.
Ilowever these are only minor reforms,—the great problem of
how to allow students free choice in the matter of the halls, without
allowing class halls to develop is still unsolved. The sliding quota
~“ might be introduced, but it would prove impractical in a popular hall,
for the maximum would soon be reached, and the present problem
recreated. If the quota for a class were to be established on the basis
of the number of students in the freshman class, and maintained for
the four years, the seniors would all find themselves in one or two
halls, because of the reduction of numbers in a @lass over four. years.
The problem is already one of many complexities and it cannot. be
solved in a day. The time is, however, growing short, and some report
should be made on the progress of the reform in time for the students
returning next year to profit by whatever changes are to be made.
Nothing is to be gained by unnecessary delay in facing the question,
and we hope that the administration and the College-Council will take
the earliest opportunity to reach some decision, and present it to the
college. Students are anxious to complete their plans for next year,
and if the quota is to be changed, it should be done as soon as possible.
If no action is to be taken, the students should be informed of the
immutability of tradition, so that they will cease to live in hope and
can devote themselves to preparation for another long hard winter,
continued inaction will only aggravate the situation, and we feel con-
fident i in prophesying an early report from the Council and from those
in authority. =

UNSOLICITED ADVICE UPON
THE CHOICE OF THE FRESH- ~
The time is growing fast apace
To add another to our race
Of animals and birds and fish;
And oh! dear freshmen, how we wish
That for. your beast you’ll surely bar
Any like those you’ve seen so far.
Shun with shudders any sample
Resembling ‘35’s example.
Stay within the bounds of knowledge
Taught at this respected college;
Stay within the bounds of science—
Who believes in elves or giants?
Pray, what is this phoenix beast,
That when it is once deceased,
Thereupon returns to life
From its ash. Has it no wife?
What is its genus, phylum, order?
We rank it on the hazy border
’Twixt philos and folk tale fable.
Dear Hatter:
Agitations—what happens to them?
ising Agitations as in this year’s
crop—take the Bush Agitation, or the
Wash Well Agitation, or the Quota
Ditto. They’re all dead, and why?
Not because they were weak flowers,
not because they weren’t burning is:
sues, not that they had hardened ar-
teries or sinusitis or anything like
that. Not any one of the above, you
understand, was the teason for the
shelving of these worthy causes. but
something thrice, nay, four . times
more insidious—Lack of College Spir-
it. When we think of how many
things fade away because the inmates
of this Institution cannot work for
a Cause, we feel very doleful.
When Bushes are no more, when
Sanitas reigns but not rules (as I
believe is the custom among English
kings), and when all classes mingle,
unfettercd by per cent signs, then
there will be a Bryn Mawr Renais-
sance. Then. we will proudly say,
with Sir Francis Bacon, “We take
all learning for our province.”
—Sick At Heart and Mind.
It defies a definite label;
No one’s seen it, no one’s heard it,
No one knows what sort of bird it
Really is—mild or terrific, ©
Scorn it as unscientific.
Don’t pick a cricket—pardon—hop-
per, :
Because-it does thing most improper.
It’s accomplished, that is true—
It dances and hops (belying its
blue) —
By rubbing its legs it’s able to sing—
But it spits tobacco, the horrid thing,
And we who dress like decadents
Yet draw the line at this offense.
Clad tho’ we are in rags and tatters,
Asserting that only the intellect mat-
ters,
Our hair unkempt, in cleanliness
fickle,
For chewing, even We use only sweet
chicle.

LOVE, YOU FINNY THING
You have a silver-complexioned skin
From your pointed snout to your cau-
dal fin;
Indeed, all around the zodiac
I love your beatings cardiac,
I love to put on my spectacles
And look at both your spiracles;
I love your gills, your lateral vein,
Youmvertebrae, and your spiny brain.
And when you look with leery lens
I think of all the firs and fens
Wherein you gamboled in.the deép—
And as I take my knife I weep.
Another dogfish bites the mud!

I gnash my teeth, sad, I repine ad
For my dogfish, my squalus acanth-
ias, mine!

And then there was the traditional
Wyndham: song of a few years ago
on the subject of the famous fish
(why doesn’t some freshman class
use this for an animal?) This to the
old tune of “I’m A Dreamer, Aren’t
We All?” and all. of us are at times,
even in the Biology Lab.

advocating a radical return to the
ciating one’s meals, of relishing an
appetizing smell or flavor — we all
know that in America today such
pleasures are thrown by the board,
particularly by the peaked modern
damsel whose bugaboo is avoirdupois.
So I don’t ask you to spend two
hours of a valuable day in just sim-
ply having fun eating. I’m only im-
ploring you to remember that man’s
allotted, span of years is three score
and ten and women live longer. And

five girls should. swallow a four-
course luncheon in twelve and a half
minutes by the clock?
Every day I observe, nay, am fore-
ed to participate in this ordeal. All
and my soul shrinks from the lunch-
eon hour—that precious time reserv-
| ed for respite from my labors. And
at last the bells peal out, the sirens
proclaim the sacred hour. For seven
minutes there is hustle and bustle in’
the corridors, a few vagrant and
hopeful souls finding their way into
the dining-room; not until 1.10 is
every one who expects to be fed, seat-
ed in the accustomed rows. Then
we are off to a flying start, each ta-
ble. presenting the aspect of a shell
in an intercollegiate crew-race, with
every man grimly bent to his task. A
gloomier comparison is a prison mess-
hall, where a chain-gang, which al-
most prefers the rock-pile to its food,
handles the dishes with the swift mo-
notony that hard labor gives to all
their actions.. The soup du jour has
come and gone; my frustrated eyes
and hands have scarcely noticed its
passing. Meat and vegetables suc-
ceed each other pell-mell—jostling to
left of me and pushing to right of
me, mine not to reason why! In.a last
effort to do and die, I stab: at. my
salad, but as my fork is fastening
upon a crisp green leaf, some one
makes a determined attempt to re-
moye the plate from under the very
instruments that were designed, alas,
for eating. However, such optimism
as mine is hard to quench, and I
have sighted the plate, which though
three yeards down the table, is piled
high with cookies. Ah, those happy
girls at the right end of the table!
They have seen it, too. Who can
blame them for taking two while the
taking is good? I blink my eyes as
one bewitched, for no cloak of in-
visibility could accomplish a_ better
disappearing act than those cookies,
Well, I have made a short matter
flong, because at twenty-two and a
half minutes. after the hour, it is all
over but the shouting. I am aston-
ished to look around and observe my-
self deserted by my peers. And now,
obviously, the concerted purpose of
the moment is the removal of every. __
thing from the dining-room but the
tables. So I retire disgruntled, dis-
satisfied, and undernourished. I can
always grab a Baby Ruth on the way

will preserve some powers of diges-

in the technique that at a dinner
party I am always champing for the
meat course, while the oysters are yet
unopened.

GAMES WERE CARELESS
On Saturday morning. the Varsity
and Second teams swamped the Sat-
urday Morning Club teams by the
81-4 and 49-11.
As might*be expected, lack of com-
scores,
petion did not encourage either team
to play its best. The forwards were
careless and inaccurate shots were
numerous; passes were hurried and
traveling was frequent. For the first
time this year, Longacre was in her
old position at center and with the
help of her teammate, Remington,
kept the ball in Bryn Mawr territory
most of the time, and,°as a=result,
play was mainly a continuous and
monotonous series of goals. Collier
made thirty points in the first half,
while Faeth made eighteen. “In the
second half, however, Collier made
only eight, while Faeth scored twen-
ty-four.._Although they-rarely had a
chance to play the ball at all, Bow-
ditch and Kent held their forwards
to one lone goal, the other two points
being made on free shots.
The line-up was as follows:

The second team was also mainly
a practice game. Miss Grant sent in
many substitutes and, in consequence,
a good combination barely had time
to. get started before it was broken
up again. Although this made the
playing a little more interesting to
watch, the result,was a mad scram-
ble with little true teamwork. Baker
and Jackson were the only ones to
play throughout the game, with Bak-
“““er tallying thirty-four points and
Jackson ‘holding her forward to three
goals. VanVechten, who started the
game as left guard, was taken out
to fill a vacancy on -the opposing
team, and proved to be a great ob-
stacle to the Bryn Mawr forwards
during the second half. The game
as a whole was uneventful, but we
hope that some advantage was deriv-
ed that might be used against future
teams.

sand, formed a deposit on the work-

rate was the direct result of the oc-
cupation. The condition takes two to
fifteen years to develop, depending on
the amount of silica dust formed. The
men who are tunneling the New York
subway have five years to live, if they
stay’ in that occupation for - that
length of time. The employer is in
a difficult situation, for’ he cannot tell

clear-cut and it is easy to confuse
them with general ill-health. When
one suggests that a law of compen-

The subject of Occupational Dis-

legislative point of view by: Mr. T.
Henry Walnut, chairman of the Penn-
sylvania Commission of Occupational

amendment was passed through the

the approval of both employer and
employee because the system of com-

nesslike basis. Every employer is sup-
posed to be insured and those who
are not are fined heavily.
The aim of the commission is to
make the scheme as definite as possi- |

bad a position as before. ;
Representative Robert. Fitzgerald,
of Erie County, was the last speaker
on the program. He delivered a spir-

however, be noted. Although in 1913,
after forty years of political activity,
the Southern leader, Dr. Sun-Yat-Sen
was generally considered a_ rather
negligible rebel, whose sole ideal was
opposition, his leadership assumed a
néw significance when Soviet Russia
became interested in liberating the
colonial and semi-colonial countries.
The Third International sent Borodin,
a man of extraordinary ability, to
Canton, where he won Sun’s confi-
dence and became almost his equal in
influence, He brought to China a gift
for political leadership which Sun
lacked, and a talcnt for persuading
men to work together. His agent,
General Gallen, set. up military
schools and organized armies on a
scale unprecedented in China. As a
result, the Cantonese were able to
march north and get control of the
whole country.
Even more fateful than this new
Chinese military development is ithe
sense of community which has been
aroused by resentment of the unequa)
treaties which China has been forced
to sign. Feeling was worked up in
the schools, and the ‘student move-
ment, which had begun as a protest
again Japan in 1916, spread like wild-
‘fire. The agitation culminated just
when the powers which had drawn up
the treaties of 1921 and 1922 met in
Peking to remove restrictions on Chi-
nese sovereignty. The Chinese were
distrustful because the conference
had been delayed four years, and, al-
though the foreign powers showed
the utmost consideration, China re-
fused to recognize any longer the va-
ladity of former agreements and show-
ed such insistence on, being \gratified
in every demand that the negotiations
soon broke down.
The Natioanalists came into power
in 1928, and to bring the matter to a
conclusion, the Chinese said they
would flatly repudiate their old treat-
jes, ecpecially those with Belgium
and Japan, whether new ones were
arranged or not. In a few months,
the irritating foreign privileges were
renounced, but if Chna continues to
show such recalcitrance towards her
obligations, she is likely to arouse the |:
impatience of western nations. Her
rapprochement with a country which
‘is, for’ the present, committed to a
policy of world revolution, may leave
her isolated, and, like Russia, outside
the diplomatic pale.
Although it is impossible to believe
that China, is, as some allege, not a
‘nation b a vast anarchy, the un-
fortunate Chinese political tendency
toward decentralization must not be
ignored. Things’move slowly in. such
a traditional’country. For a long
time China’may be a source of irri-
tation and danger to the rest of the
world, but she is slowly moving to a
point where the present mass of
400,000,000 individuals will become
one coherent responsible nation.
