PAGE TWO DR. M, CHINESE ■ MINISTER DIMS , SUPER-DIPLOMACY Sets America Ri«ht With Re spect To So-Called ‘Heathen Chinee’ By HARRY E HUNT WASHINGTON, Nov. ft. Pr. Sao-Ke Alfred Sze, Chinese minis ter'to the United States, proves himself a real diplomat by the steps he has taken to z set America right with respect to the “heathen Chinee.” Instead of confining his efforts -for a better understanding be tween China and the United States to pai ley voos and pour parlers with the gray-beards, in the State Department, Sze is making his overtures straight to the youth of the country who will have the shaping of our diplomacy in the next ,'enoration. As a part of this idea, Sze has presented to t'he Central High school of Washington, in which he was formerly a student, a “Chinese room,” which will keep constantly before the pupils of the school an object lesson on the art and culture of his ancient country. This Chinese room, built within one of the regular class-rooms of the school, is finished with long pan els of red and black lacquer. These panels are decorated with Chinese characters setting forth the charac teristics of a good teacher. The windows are shaded by gold silk curtains, over a Chinese lattice PREVENTS INFECTION .

A large, beautifully jjoeijgm ed Chinese lantern, suspended from' the center, sheds a mellow, softened light which brings out the oriental charm and beauty of the room. It will be hard to convince pupils who receive part of their education in English in htis room that China is a hopelessly benighted country. Instead of being given an adverse I slant at China and things Chine, e, I they are brought to regard them ' with high favor. For in the desert ' of a modern, utilitarian, American 1 school building, this Chinese room stands out as an oasis of beauty and inspiration. As a bit of su per-diplomacy it amounts to noth ing. less than genius! Publication of income tax pay ments proved a fine windfall for one class of business men. It '’ave stock and bond salesmen a gilt-edged list of “prospects.” Fpr from the amount of tax paid it was possible to estiii ate with fair accuracy the yearly income of the rpportees, and the stock and bond boys lost no time in hot-footing it out to argue the merits of their various “issues” as investments ard gather in as many of 4bt lemain ing dollars as possible. One elderly Washing. »i woman' who had never been spotted iy the stock and bond brokers, but who ■ was reveal- 1 by th? tax lists as having an inrrne well up in fvej figures, was vi.filed by no less than i five bust>ing bond salesmen the morning her name wu; printed She bought some securities from the last man, then locked ire door, disconnected the dt»or-b<ll and de clared a tate of siege. What’s in a name? Wei' W A. Jump, adn inistrative assistant to acting- Secretary of Agriculture Gore, held down his first job with the department solely by his abil ity to live up to his. Jump’s’job was to carry mes sages from an up-town office of the department to the administration building down on the Mall, mak ing a-trip every 15 minutes. When he tackled the job he had a bicycle, and expected to be able to main tain schedule without overexeluon. The round-trip distance* was a!.out a mile. Then his bicycle was stolen. Funds were not in hand for an other—and wouldn’t be for several weeks. He either had to walk, and walk fast, or give up his job. So Jump jumped to it. And by the time he was ready to buy a new bike, his boss jumped him into a better job. But even today he can tell you PAYING FOR THE HOME “Up to two years ago my money all went to doctors and medicine for my stomach trouble.
