BY GHINESE WOMEN Oriental Sufiragists Rouse the Young China Association to Wild Enthusiasm ONE SPEAKER IS A UNIVERSITY GRADUATE | Mrs. J. Jung, 23, and Miss B. Loo Address Big Throng in : Chinatown UNSHEATH THE SWORD IF NECESSARY, THEY SAY HINESE conventions of a thous sand years and Chinese stand= ards which began with the building of the great wall were snapped asunder last night when two young Chinese women, one of them a graduate of the University of California, stepped to the front at a public meeting and in speeches of fire and patriotism called to their countrymen to win the ballot in China by the sword, to overthrow the Manchu dynast§ and install a re- publican form of government in its place. The two, Mrs. J. Jung, a graduate [ of the Canton normal school, 23 years of age, and Miss B. Loo, a graduate of the University of California, 20 years old, represent the latest movement of the ancient race. Their primal aim is the destruction of the Manchu dynasty and their next woman suffrage for China: The meeting was in Stockton hall, the headquarters of the Young China organization here, anq it was packed to the doors. There were other speak- ers, ‘but the young womem were the leaders. They were dressed in Chiness costumes and spoke in Chirese, but their arguments were modern and their language emphatically to the polnt. Time and agaln as they spoke they spurred their hearers’ to outbursts of frantic applause, They called for blood, for death, for revolution—for political liberty at any cost. Draw Sword, They Urge ‘ “Men, lead on!” said Mrs. Jung. “We women - will follow. No hope is there of our country achieving anything un- der a system of government such as exists. The Manchu dynasty must be overthrown. Appeal, reason, argument and the love of humanity have falled. Nothing remains but the sword. Draw it, then, for the sake of liberty which, though it may not be for you, will he for your children and your children's ehildren.” She referred to the place women held in the life of China and said she had noticed with pride the rice of the suf- fragette movement in the United Stafes and England. “As we stand,” she cried, “we may- but encourage you. We may but stand | behind you and spur you on. to victory. We can give yo uour sacrifices, we can gives you the help of womankind—but, lead on and we will follow. Unsheath | the sword, if you must, but-win the, ballot.” Young China gathered in the hall. cheered itself hoarse. Schoolboys and; elders, merchants and scholars, all im-, bued with a kindred spirit of democ-{ racy, yelled and stamped and lhonled.‘ 8o it was when Miss Loo took the plat. form. Her speech, while not so radical, | Dpossessed the same elements as that.of | i Mrs. Jung's. Must Fight, Says Miss Loo “Great is our purpose” she. and great is the honor given to us Wwomen to encourage by work and voice | the efforts of th emen. You must fight. |\ There can be no backward step. Our country is honeycombed wifh the new | thought of a Chinese republic, the army and navy is affected and thére | can be no stopping until a republic! rises on the ruins of the H.nehu' dynasty.” As she concluded the children burl': into the anthem of the-revolutionists, “Choong Gwan.” It is the war cry of the new clan ‘and calls ‘warriors to their death. Instantantly the audience rose to its feet and joined in the singing. A boys' band qf 16 pieces and the children of the Young.China school of democratic principles led off Wwith American songs of war and with talk of war and thought of war, the meeting broke, cheering to the last the two young women. e STEAMSHIP LINES CUT PRICES IN RATE WAR One Company Offers $7.35 Rate From San Pedro [Special Dispatch to The Call] Feb. 12.—When the Francisco steamer Rose Ci will take rate of $7.35 for San
