HINISTER EXPLAINS JAP AIW N CHINA Rev. A. D, Heininger Discusses Situation in Far East What Japan is doing in China was explained to members of the Rotary olub at the noon meeting today by Rev. A. D. Heininger, assistant pas- tor of the First Congregational church. Rev. Mr. Heininger, who has spent the greater part of his ministry in China, mostly at the Porter Middle school at Techow in the Shantung vrovince, is a keen stu- dent of Orlental affairs, and is ac- knowledged as the outstanding au- thority on Chinese questions in New Britain and vicinity. He displayed for the Rotarfans a large map of China and pointed out various scenes of conflict during the present hostilities. Beginning with the days of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the founder of the present nationalist movement, the minister brought his hearers through the various stages in the movement to establish a democracy in that country. He told of the passing of the provincial governors and the present situation as it affects those who still remain. He explained the brief “Red” influence and how it was stamped out. Pointing out the Shantung situa- tion as it exists now, he said Japun has control of railways and other rights she wrested from Germany during the World War and has de- livered an ultimatum to both warring factions that she will dis- arm any troops going through that scetion. The challenge has been ac- cepted by one faction and develop- ments now are awaited by the whole world. He stated in reply to a question that nine-tenths of the people in China are unable to read and write.
