One candi- date announced that she seeks office as “quiet modest lady,” while an- other, the widow of an army offlcer, announced as her platform a thorough and systematic boycott of the Ger- mans, Foremost among the women candi- dates was Cristobel Pankhurst, whose activities as a militant leader before the war gave her international prom- inence. She was one of the supporters of Premier David Lloyd George and ran on a platform ‘“democratizing prosperity and the abolition of pov- erty by increased produection of wealth so that there will be wealth enough for all.” Mrs. Hope, widow of a British army colonel, as an independent, opposed erbert Asquith, the former premier.

JA MILLIONS TO CHINA One Authority Places the Total as High As $118,885,000—866,616,- 060 This Year. Peking, Nov. 20, (Correspondence of The Associated Press.)—Japan's loans to China are estimated by the Tokio correspondent of one newspaper to have attained a total of about $148,885,000. Loansg from Japan contracted by China in the present. year are placed at $66,515,000 The newspaper’'s correspondent al- leges that according to his informa tion much of the proceeds of the loans contracted this year has been diverted from the stipulated purposes for which they were made and have been ‘squeezed” by private persons or wasted in prosecution of the civil war. He elaborates as follows: “The loans of $25,000,000 con- tracted by the Bank of Communica- tions nominally for the purpose of effecting reforms in the said bank did nothing to attain that end buf, on the contrary, the value of the bank notes kept on dropping steadily. The proceeds of the Telegraph Adminis- tration loan amounting to $20,000, 000 were also recklessly squandered. Tha military loan also amounting to $20,000,000, was contracted ostensibly for the purpose of participating in the European war by recruiting and specially training three divisions and | eight brigades of troops. But the proceeds were used for prosecuting | the internal war.” Further loans in process of nego- | tiations by China are estimated by | tha correspondent to amount to about §70,000,000. Of this sum about | $50,000,000 is intended for the pur- pose of establishing iron works. ‘“‘Ac- cording to the provision of the loan i agreement the engineers chanics to be employed in thase iron | works muyst be engaged for | Chinese government by the ‘ se,” says the correspondent.
