Mr. Hung, who is a graduats of an American college, spoke earnestly on the conditions in China and expressed the gratitude of his nation to America for the aid which they have receivel from Amcric cans in this great human! an work. This fund not only me-as relief, Lut it! means a great deal more. It means the! establishing of a soun¥l commercial busi- ness basis between the two countries. China in the past few years has been de- veloping her textile and cotton industry and within the past year has purchased from America over $22,000,000 worth of textile machinery.

China is not in sympathy with the im- perialism of Japan or the bolshevism of Rusela any more than the United States is.

The fair this year, said Mr. Raymond, will be better than ever before, priges amounting to $8,000 will be given for the horse racing, and the premiums for the exhibits will be large; many features for the entertain- ment ‘and education of those Who attend have also been planndfl. At the business session President Lu- clus Briggs presided and a letter from John Poole of Washington, D. C., was read, in which Mr. Poole offered to assist any Rotarian in matters of business in Washington should the occasion arise. Mr. Poole is pre<lent of the First Na- tional bank there. An invitation from William H. Oat for i%e club to hold the last meeting in July at Tis country place at Ludlow farm was heartily received.

Standish was elected captain of the Norwich team and as several new members of the club taken in since the last game are old time ball players, the prospects that Norwich will bring home the cup are bright. Two radiograms from William G. Park, the club delegate to the international con- vention at Idinburgh, Scotland, were read stating that all was well and everything going fine. The last meeting in June & fo be held at the Norwich Golf club. Clinton E. Lane was the song leader nd there were several quartette and solo | selections by the various members of the | club.

The supreme need of the war impoverished Luropean world for food- stuffs and the products of North Amer- ica imposes an obligation upon us to safe- guard to the extent of our intelligence and ‘ability every form of natural and careated resource.
