AMERICA DOING TOD - MUGH FOR CHINESE Claim Is That Britons Fear “Americanization of China” _ London, July 21.—A solemn wara- 1 Ing on the menace to Britain of tha “Americanization of China” is utter- s ed by a special far-eastern corres- Pondent of the Daily Mail, who re- cently attended the tenth anniversary ! telebration of the American Indema- Ity (Tsing Hua) College in Peking. The college was established as a re- 8ult of the United States government | remitting part of its share of the Box- €1 Indemnity. ““The boys here are China's future leaders,” the correspondent says, and after pointing out that they all go to America after completing their ttudies in Peking, he continue: “Educated under the American sys- tem, aware that they owe their schol- arship to American justice, and satur- ated with American sentiment by five to eight years’ residence in the United States,they will look to America sole'y for co-operation in the troublots years to come. America is rearing ilie China of tomorrow. *“Why should not we” (the British). he demands, ‘‘share an influence that we formerly monopolized and that is now slipping away from us?” and he goes on: “I asked a returned student as we {watched the boys at baseball why China did not look to England as an educational field. “Sure we will,” he replied, you remit the Boxer indemnity. The Chinese president of the col- lege put it to the correspondent this way: “Chinese-American friendship has become so proverbial that few people take the trouble to investigate tiie cause of such good international un- derstanding. Any country that wishes to captivate the hearts of the Chinese can do no better than follow the ex- ample set by America.” B. Lenox-Simpson, an Englishman who holds the post of Political Ad- wiser to the Chinese government and who is at present in London, writes to the Daily Mail that the process of the Americanization of China is a very Teal one. “‘Big business,” he says, “is tendirg to go more and more to American ‘when | AMERIGAN BANKERS HEAR LICHTENSTEIN Famous Doctor Addresses Ameri- can Institute at Minneapolis Minneapolis, Minn., July 21—When “America First” is made to mean de- crying the importance of America's foreign trade, it is well said, Dr. Walter Lichtenstein, executive secre- tary of the First National bank of Chicago, told the American Institute of Banking here today. On the con- trary, he held, a larse foreign trade is vital to the prosperity of some of the most important of America's business, particularly agriculture. “All of us believe in ‘America First’,” Dr. Lichtenstein said. “That is what we are here for, to do every- thing possible to aid and develop the business of our own country. -But we are not giving aid and comfort if we support a policy which is based upon the theory that our foreign trade is unimportant and that conditions will right themselves if we will only look to our own affairs. “It is true that our foreign trade amounts to possibly only five per cent ot the total business done in this country, but, in the first place, any business man will tell you that five per cent difference often spells suc- cess or failure as the case may be. In the second place, when we say that our foreign business amounts to only five per cent of the total business done in this country, remember that this is only a general average includ- ing every commercial and manufac- turing activity known. “Of the most important of all in- dustries, however, agriculture, the foreign trade is vastly larger than merely five per cent. ' We must ex- port 250,000,000 to 300,000,000 bush- els of wheat. Of the 11,000,000 or 12,000,000 bales of cotton which we produce yearly, 6,000,000 bales must be sent abroad in order to find ‘a market, and in Chicago we realize that the large packing establishments so vital to the business of the Middle West, cannot prosper without a large foreign trade. “In short, the people who cultivate our soil and who comprise nearly half of our population cannot find a mark- et for a large proporden of their pro- ducts unless they can find foreign buyers for them. How, then,’can we expect domestic business to prosper unless foreign trade prospers, and firms, because the Chinese believe In; how can foreign trade prosper unless favoring those who favor them,” and)our customers in hc concludes: “The helpfulness of America. not only to Young China, but also to OIJ China, is a subject of common con- aersation, throughout the immense Ckinese society which fills the far- eastern continent. So far the results of this have not been felt or under- sftood in this country, but unless wo 1ake speedy action, we are destined to drop during the next 12 montus to third or fourth place in the Chinese 31epublic, and thereby affect our whole standing throughout Asia.” —_—-—---—————— CHRUWLEY BROS.

Heretofore, it has been almost impossible to reach these areas chiefly because of lack of transpor- tation. In the Pripet marsh country, be- iween Pinsk and the Russian border, one inspector reported that aftec reaching ‘the railroad ' terminal he Dhad traveled two days by automobile. then by boat and by horseback to vis it people who had been reported in need. Potatoes had been the prin cipal food upon which these people existed during the winter, the inspe:- tors reportéd and with the coming of spring, men, women and children lived chiefly upon cooked grass, dan- delions and some farm products. At various points along the fron- tier, which follows the old German- Russian trench line of 1917, peasants who had been driven from their homes by advancing armies, have been returning, only to fined the'r homes demolished and virtually every- thing gone excepting the bare land. They have taken to the dugouts for shelter until they are able to build shacks upon their holdings. In scores of villages in this battle area not one house has been left standing. They were demolished cither during the fighting between tne Russians and the Germans or after- ward when the Bolsheviki invaded territory which is now a part of Po- land. No attempts have been made to -recognize the local government. In 1914 the village of Toboly had 124 buildings. Not a house is left standing. Of the inhabitants about BP0 are living in dugouts and 80 oher persons have sought shelter in nearby barracks. Three hundred persons who claim Swanowicze as their home town ars all living in dugouss. When the German and armies clashed, Lubieszow was a thriving village of 995 buildings Twenty houses are now standing, socie badly damaged by shellfire.

Arrangements have been made by the relief administration officials to! set food to these districts as soon as pessible and, during the summer, kitchens will be established where all chilt'iren up to 17 years of age will receive one full meal each day.

CGreenberg Prosecutes. \This was the first liquor case to be prosecuted by Prosecuting Attorney A. A. Greenberg, since this work was taken out of the hands of Attorney M. A. Sexton.

This act took effect July first. 3 Reckless Driving. Charged with reckless driving, George J. Simmons, was held under bonds ot §200 for a hearing next Thursday. Simmons was charged by Officer Strolls with turning a short corner at Farmington and Overlook avenues last night about 8:30, when he struck a team driven by Georga F. Bigge, of 435 Farmington avenue.
