SAY CHRISTIANTY 1S LACKING HERE Foreign ~ Students Struggle Against Inbospitality New York, April 14, — America has the largest enrollment of for- elgn students In the world and many of these youlhs, composing the greatest student migration in history, are struggling against heavy odds of Inhospltality and race pre- judice while carrylng on their studies, according toghe findings of a committee of investigators. An expansion .of the Friendly Relations committees of the Young Men's Christlan’ and the Young Women's Christian associations, the investi- gating group is composed of 24 rep- resentatives of many welfare and denominational bodies. It is called the Compmission on Survey of I'or- =~gn Students in the United States, | and its labors in this fleld have | taken three yeare. The need for self-support has been no small factor in the lives of these youhg students from dis- tant lands, the commission found, and many have taken back a sense of disillusionment as to America’s ideals and practices. Some find that | “the Christlanity acquired from Amerlcan missionaries was not con- | firmed by the Christianity they met in the land which sent the mis- slonaries forth.” There are more than 8,000 of | these students in colleges and uni- versities of the United States and 6,000 more' in secondary schools, the report sets forth, Fifteen hun- dred are women, The condition of these young people, the problems involved, and suggestions as to their treatment are eet forth in the re- port. “American life and the Christian churth never have met a more se- | vere and searching test,’ says Dr. | Robert E. Speer, secretary of the | loard of foreign missions of the | Presbyterian church, “than in the | presence of these foreign students. They will not carry back what they | do not get, and they will not gol what we cannot or do not give.” Dr, Speer points out that not n!l these students have been disap- | pointed and that thousands have results of study benefftlal than detrimental to the cause of inter- national frlendship and of the chureh, ,Tha other side of the plcture is suggested In detalled statements by students of painful experiences, and thelr complaints ot political and | commerclal dishonesty in AmerlCl. moral laxity, craze for ornnnlufllon. and “Imperialism,” whieh they | compare with what they have seen | and heard of American ideals and | achlevements. “Much of this eriti-| clsm,” says the report, “is unques. | tlonably sincere, Some of it comes | from intolerance and from lack of energy In appropriating what s or- fered.” A Japaneso observer writes: I can readlly name 20 young Jap-| anese who Intended to become min- isters and entered American theo- logical seminaries, but later changed | their minds and entered education, | or business or officlal service,” | Elmer Yelton, of the commlssion, asserts that “the fact cannot be ignored that there fis | among forelgn students in the | United States a rising tide of criti- | clsm of the whole Christlan move- | ment."” | Buggestions from representative | American leaders show unanimity of opinlon that responsibility for work among forelng students rests upon | the Christian people of America | working through the church and its | agencles, the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. | C. A, college faculties and student boards of advisors, with the special help of the friendly relations com- mittees already arganized, The data upon which the report s based has come from hundreds of sources at home and abroad. Re- plies to questionnaires were received from 830 foreign students in more than 400 different colleges and uni- versities of the United States, About 25 per cent of college administrators who have to do with foreign e&tu- dents’ problems replied to ques- tionnalres, There were also replies from church pastors and Y. M. C. A. and Y. W, C. A, leaders. “We can, if we will,” Speer, “send back each year to their many ldnds, an army of ambassa- dors of goodwill and helpful inter. course, The church may find in these thousands of students gs many| missionaries to carry Christianity | back to their own pecople.” \ egro Student Pays $350 on Speeding Lhalge New York, April 14.—A new lnr.'h record in fines imposed in traffic says Dr. |.. odore W, Danlels, negro dental udent at Columbla university, pald $360 for speeding on March 31, His arrest on this charge came after two other offenses and after the revoca- tlon of hls license. Magistrate House at first declded to send him to jail, but Daniels pleaded that this would interfere with his dental examina- tions and the record flne was fm- posed.

From a mission of following fce- bergs and warning craft «f their whereabouts, the duties cf the fce patrol have grown to include study of the ocean, including the currents that carry the bergs, the places where they form, and other selentific data bearing on them. This service dates from 1914, fol- lowing the signing by 13 powers in- terested In transatlantic navigation of a convention, which provided for n international derelict-destruction e-observation and ice-p 1 ser ice.” The sinking of the Titantic by an iceberg in 1912 really initlated the movement and coast guard offi- cers point with pride to the fact that since the ice patrol was established, |no lives have been lost because of icebergs in the ocean lanes of the \Orth Atlantic.
