500 employees of the public cotton
warehouse, 135 workers of the Otis
Manufacturing company, and 50 men
of the Empire City Rice mill refusing
to work because the demands for an
increase in wages or union recogni
tion had not been granted.

SHANTUNG
THE area of Shantung is about the
same as the area of the state of
Michigan—a trifle less. Through the
center of the province is a range of
mountains 100 miles wide and 200
miles long, taking about one-third of
the territory. Another considerable
portion of the land is rendered barren
by salt mixture with the soil.
Now, if you can imagine crowding
into the state of Michigan all the peo
ple of the state of Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Kentucky, Indiana, Ilinois, Missouria,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Towa, and Kansas, you
can get some thing of an idea of the
population of Shanaung.
Try to think of shoving into Michi
gan all the people in the cities of Phil
adelphia, Harrisburg and Pittsburg,
Cleveland, Cincinnati, Dayton and To
ledo, Indianapolis, Chicago, Louisville,
St. Louis, Kansas City, Milwaukee,
Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth, Des
Moines, and Topeka, and all the peo
ple living in the country for hundreds
of miles about those cities, and you
have the crowded contdition of Shan
tung. .
Something near two-thirds of the
soil is fertile, and there are rich mines
in the province.
Two missionaries, Catholic priests,
subjects of Germany, went into Shan
tung, and were murdered.
,Germany wanted to get a foothold in
China, and, using this as a pretext,
demanded a lease on a port and cer
tain other rights for 99 years. That
was in 1898,
' China gave in because she had to,
'and Germany took over the small fish
iing city of Tsingtau, on Kiaochow bay,
and got mining and railroad conces
sions in the province.
i Electric lights, telephones and other
‘modern improvements were installed
in Tsingtau, and a railroad pushed
out into the province. German en
terprise was felt.
England got a similiar lease and a
similiar foothold in another port, Wei
haiwei, to the northeast of Kiaochow.
When the war broke out in 1914,
Japan went after Germany to wrest
from that empire the territory and
rights she had forfed from China.
It tok eleven weeks of fighting, much
of which was fierce, but Germany fin
ally was defeated, and Japan took
over German interests.
In 1915 Japan asked China to make
a treaty confirming Japan’s rights in
the province. China was slow about
it, Japan sent an ultimatum, and
China signed up. China signed an
other treaty last year, again recogniz
ing Japan’s rights.
China did not like the situation at
all, although there were unquestioned
improvements among the people, and
although she had made treaties—very
much against her will.
Japan had promised to restore the
rights to China at the proper time,
allowing a reasonable time for proper
transfer, by documents, of Germany’s
rights to Japan, and completion of
other matters; Japan at the same time
safeguarding certain of her interests
in Manchuria.
China came to the Peace Confer
ence with her grievances, and asked
the nations in the Conference to force
Japan to restore that which China had
signed away under force.
England did not use German me-l
thods to get her hold in the same pro
vince of China, but England and Ja
pan were and are on very friendly
terms, and if Japan were forced to
restore what Germany stole, and what
China faterward ceded, how far would
the League feel like going?—Well,
England could not help turning her
eyves toward her holdings. |
Taken all in all it was a nasty sub
ject to handle, and there stood Japan’s
promise of final restoration, with the
claim that it could not be done now,
either in the interest of China or of
the people affected. :
Of course Japan was not forgetful
of her own interest either.
Then, too, Japan, did not like to
have her honor questioned.
We might be asked to apply the
situation to ourselves.
~ We took the Phillipines from Spain
as a prise of war about the time Ger
many took holdings in Shantung. We
said we would educate the people and
give them selfgovernment as soon as
it was good for them. A nation’s in
tentions are some times hard to de
termine. There are those who hold

the Phillipines are now ready to gov
ern themselves; there are those who
hold that more time is required. There
are occasional debates in Congress
about WHEN? But there is no ques
tion about the untimate aim of all
our people to give the Phillipines their
freedom.
How would we like to have Japan
and other nations say to us, “Come
on, you promised; deliver NOW”?
Japan feels the same way about
Tsingtau, and the concessions in the
province. Japan, at her own sacrifice,
made it possible for China to get rid
of Germany, and, naturally, resents
being pushed to return that which
China could not have gotten back in
side of 79 years, if then,
Enter polities.
President Wilson, Democrat, was
the outstanding figure of the world.
Henry Cabot Lodge, Republican,
was the leader in the Senate.
Mr. Lodge looked for an issue.
The Senator could not attack the
great features of the League of Na
tions because they were built to stop
future wars.
He heard the cry from China and
jumped to it. ?
He did not know much about it,
so he went to his encyclopedia; he
stated this himself on the floor of the
Senate. There he learned about
Shantung.
Germany had the concessions there
for twenty years without the slightest
tinge of an outrage to Senator
Lodge’s feelings.
Japan had driven Germany out,
without any outcry whatever from
the Senator.
But now, NOW, with a presidential
campaign coming on, the Senator
must have a moral issue, and Shan
tung is IT.
We have been told that 40,000,000
citizens of China and 56,000 square
miles of territory were forced under
the rule of Japan, which is not true.
Directly under the rule .of Japan
is what equals a strip about 10 miles
by 16 miles, with fewer than 200,000
people.
But it is not fair to say that that is
all Japan controls, for in her control
of railroad and mining rights she can
effect the economic life of China far
beyond her leasehold rights, but it
does not bring 40,000,000 subjects of
Japan by a long shot.
Japan holds that her word is as
goo das the word of any othey nation
on earth; nor does it seem possible
that she shall break the word given
in her treaty to China, knowing as she
does that 45 other nations are looking
on, expecting fulfillment.
_At the time of this writing, Presi
dent Wilson is working with China
and Japan, hoping to get Japan to
rname, and China to accept, a date of
delivery that will be acceptable teo
both. Such may be accomplished be
tween the time of writing and printing
this but in no way will affect the his
torical facts stated therein.
And it may work out best for China
after all.
China got a sample of German effi
ciency in building and engineering,
and was finally freed of the danger
of German militarism.
Japan took up the work, and it is
understood that the mass of railroads
and rolling stock and mining equip
ment will be turned back to China.
Could China handle them now?
Wouldn’t it be a blessing to that
mass of humanity, huddled together
in that smal province, to have Tsing
gu there a sample of a modern civil
ed city, to have the modern methods
of mining and railroading there, all
forced on them against their will and
all left three for their own develop
ment, without the handicap of the
military spirit that brought them
there?
Suppose Senator Lodge has his way
and the League of Nations is turned
down. Japan still has her treaty with
China, her recognized rights there,
without her promise to the world to
get out in a reasonable time.
Refusing to ratify will not drive
Japan out of China; it will leave her
there—leaving her to deal with China
alone.—Dearborn Independent

OFFICIAL RED CROSS NOTES
(Continued from first page)
I feel more like moving pianos than
playing them. I want a regular job!”
Public Health Nursing is one of the
principal features with which the Red
Cross will concern itself in the fu
ture, and the Cobb County Chapter
has recently inaugrated this line of
work in this county.
Miss Myrtice Brown, who has just
returned from overseas hospital ser
vice, is the Public Health nurse and
since the latter part of July has been
organizing the health worth in Cobb
county. During this time Miss Brown
ihas had medical inspection in two of
‘the county schools, Lost Mountain
and Mount Zion, and intends visiting
the others at the earliest possible date.
Work in the interest of Child Welfare
is being planned and every child in
‘the schols is expected to become a
'Health Crusader as soon as they hear
of how to be one from Miss Brown.
Mothers’ Clubs and clases in nursing
and home care of the sick will be or
ganized in all communities that ex
press a desire for them. Marietta,
Roswell and Acworth have already
requested these classes.
This work will also be extended to
the colored people. Georgia ranks
DRY LAWS DECREASE
| COUNTY CONVICTS
~ Seventeen employegs of the Ful

were dropped from the pay roll Sat
urday, following an executive meet
ing of Superintendent W. A. Han
sell, Jr., of the department; Warden
A. A, Clarke, of the county conviet
camps, and Assistant Superintendent
Oscar Jones. This was done as an
economic measure, and wil Isave the
county $25,000 a year. Of the men
dropped, six were road roller and
steam engineers, and the other eleven
were convict guards and drivers.
According to Oscar Mills, chair
man of the public works committee,
the continued decrease in the coun
ty convicts has made it necessary to
combine many of the jobs. The num
ber of convicts is now only about
thre hundred, while formerly it was
seven or eight hundred. The num
ber has been decreasing ever since
