SOKOLSKY | The Russians Enter The 1931 Cenference stitute of Dacitit Relations took place in China ct Hangchow and Shanghai. It was this Conference that brought in the Russians. I was enthusiastic about the In- stitute of Pacific Relations because I saw in it an instrument for im- proving the relations between China and which were then very bad; Lid t needs to be recalled here that in 1931, the last efforts were made to reconcile these coun- tries. Actually, I was an instru- ment in that attempted reconcili- ation, going to Japan from China to hold meetings with Baron Shide- hara, minister of foreign affairs, and others. I can say that the Jap- anese attitude was conciliatory; the Chinese, on the whole, antag- onistic. The effort failed so that on September 18, 1931, the Japanese invaded Manchuria, which brought on the world conditions leading to World War II. | It was in the hope that so many | importaht persons would be inthe far East in 1931 and that that would stave off the day of doom that I favored bringing this Con- ference to Hangchow, and did much to make it possible. I felt that a non-official body might accomplish more than official negotiations. Two forces were at work to keep China and Japan quarreling: Soviet Russia and the League of Nations. Soviet Russia had been engaged since 1924 in an active program of | stirring hate among the Chinese people against all foreigners, ex-| cept the Russians, but particularly against the British and the Japan- ese. The League of Nations Secretar- iat was developing in China a field of widespread activity through w‘ agent, Dr. Ludwic Rajchmann, wh was now spending most of his Um( in China. Rajchmann was violent- ly anti-Japansse, although Japan | was a member of the Leazue of | Nations and Rajchmann an em- | ployee, Rajchmann is a Pole and | is now associated with the United Nations. I proposed to the Institute Lhc‘ following: . Times are Japan and with trade and good general economic sured. Yet in spite of their willing- ness, long suspicion makes it im- | possible for Japanese and Chinese to talk directly together. A third body, disinterested and unofficial, in which Chinese and, Japanese could participate, could do a very great deal in airing difficulties and | spreading information. ’ The Hangchow-Shanghai ings cocured from October November 2, 1931. 'The war China and Japan in Manchuria had already begun, but the Jap- anese had not yet invaded Shang- hai. Both China and Japan atter ded the meetings and their efforts and papers were bitterly ants istic. Chiang Kai-shek sent a me: which included this prophetic stat ment: that good-will will forever remain emp- ty wor intil men and women like yourselves are willing to give time and energy to study, and to seek to understand, the complex prob- lems existing among nations.

HEALTH INSTITUTE T0 STUDY SUDDEN DEATH OF INFANTS By Associated Press The government is financing study into the cause of sudden expected deaths of apparently | healthy babies. The National Ir stitutes of health notes that abot 1,600 infants under one age die yearly of what is diag deed, wcrld events today are so | much shrouded with ignorance and ill-will that there is little reason- ent nature. In such an atmos- phere of suspicion and misunder- standing, the Institute of P](lh( Relations fills an urgent need. It was announced that a Ru»mn Council of the Institute had been | formed with Dr. Fedor N. Petrov as chairman. This is the beginning of active and direct Soviet parti- cipation in the affairs of the In- stitute of Pacific Relations. The American delegation was headed by Jéfome'D. ‘Greene, of oA B AREn BT B Lee, Higginson & Co., and inclu- | | cation.” The U-S Public Health ded many interesting persons, more | gervice branch has allotted $40,000 prevalently professional than at hicilie clabarites 7 o Cltber| e was the secretary-treasurer of the American Council.

When a person is using both knife and fork for cutti at the dinner table, is it necessary for him to transfer the fork to his right hand before taking the morsel into his mouth? A. No; the “criss-cross” manner of eating is no longer necessary. It is perfectly proper to convey the food to the mouth with the fork in the left hand. Q. If a young woman is traveling alone on a train and meets a man with whom she is well acquainted, would it be all right to allow him to pay for her meal if he wishes to do so? A. This would be quite all right. Q. Ts it necessary to make the “thank you” letters lengthy ones? A. Not at all. It may be a brief note, just so it is written promptly and is sincere in its tone.
