James R. Young In Jessie Po Lectures rter Kirke’s | tsetse Bouquet Is Tossed * “ * * Home On Pacific Countries |yagasine Describes Island By OPAL VA James R. Young spoke Sunday night in the Jesse Porter Kirke home, 410 Caroline street, to an eudience of approximately 100 people. His subject for the eve- ning covered Japan, China, Ko- rea, Guam and the Philippines. Mr. Young has been on tour for the past five years, making over 300 lecture appearances. He urg- ed Sunday night that the people of Key West see the advantages of a Town Hall Series. The fact that many well-known lecturers are scheduled for South Florida would bring talent into Key West at a very nominal cost. Nearly { 125 Town Hall groups have de-} veloped in the last three ye in various parts of the United State Mr. Young made his first trip! vund the world in 1925 as s retary to the late E. W. Scripps of Seripps-Howard newspaper who was his uncle. Mr. Young lived in Japan for 13 years before the war and pub- lished there. He was taken the Japs for, be Army of the Rising Sun. He was also the In- ternational News Service corre- pendent in Tokyo at the time he was imprisoned. After being in} itary confinement for two months he was given a trial, in a| Japanese Court. The first prose-| euting attorney wa discharged | because he took copies of the charges that were against Young nd passed them around to his tends. The charges were true} tatements of conditions but hould not have been written, ac- cording to the Japanese. The se ond prosecuting attorney didn’t! last long as he hesitated to take! my stand. The third prosecuting attorney managed to get Young six months in prison and three} years on probation.

China must have a political house-cleaning. Watch Japan, he said, for the Rising Sun will rise again. Mr. Bowman Cutter asked, “What do you suggest for our foreign policy?” Mr. Young re- |plied, “We cannot support the | Roxas government in the Philip- {pines. In China, General Mar- shall’s policy is excellent. In Ko- rea,, we agreed to a Cairo five- ‘year trusteeship and we can make no changes there. We have an appeasement policy. with Russia. If we had backed up our promis- es to China we wouldn't have ‘the ;chaos there now.” Horace Connable asked, “Do you suppose General MacArthir is aware of the state of affairs in Japan?” Mr. Young replied, “Yes, he knows some of the con- ditions but until it has been print- ed in our newspapers he doesn’t admit that he is aware of the facts. The men who know what is going on in some quarters have no opportunity of enlightening him because you can’t talk to him easily Commander W. G. Holman ked: “Who do you think could replace General MacArthur?” ‘To this, Mr. Young answered, “No one that I know of now. He has become such a symbol that I dare y no one ‘could. iIn/fact, many are worried about what's going to! happen when there is no MacAr- thur.” A foreign correspondent from the Balkans, Ray Brock, inquir- ed, “How would you view Gen- eral Wedemeyer’s appointment as ambassador to China?” Mr. Young said, “He likes China and as a military man it would be good diplom; He is trusted by General Marshall and his appoint- ment would be preferable to hav- {ing a career diplomat there.” Mr. Brock said, “He is anti- communi: Mr. Young explain- ed that “a lot of communism ernment.” Mrs. Jesse Porter Kirke asked, “What has become of Henry Puyi?” Mr. Young replied, “Hen ry, the puppet emperor of Man- jchuria, was on trial. The Rus- ;Sians have promised to let the |Chinese have him ‘for theixtrial jand the Chinese say that, jf, they get him they will shoot ifn" He was a‘ full-time puppet” aT LL LLL PERSONALS ‘ajunnnt Lage Mrs. Carbone Back Home Mrs. John.
