BACK IN SPOTLIGHT. Into political limelight stepped
Herbert Hoover with the suggestion that the G.O.P. “take stock ol
party position" prior to the 1038 elections through a convention.
Chairman John Hamilton, shown with the former President, would
make no comment on the plan.

Manchus," and not as substitu
tion of a republic for a monarchy.
The Tungchow Rebellion is also
testimony to this truth.
This strong racial hatred again
st the Japanese guarantees on the
Chinese side the finest fighting
morale any nation can hope for.
Every Chinese coolie knows that
Japan is China’s enemy. In fight
ing the Japanese, every Chinese
soldier is a steadily advancing
unit. Negatively, this fact makes
it impossible for Japan to conquer
any part of China in a true sense.
Whatever the Chinese lack, and
however they may be subjected
by force, they have racial pride,
a consciousness of a great cultu-1
ral past, persisting like a dream
of childhood.
That is why, even in areas al
ready occupied by Japanese for
ces. China is not reckoning with
the current popular theory of
“racial absorption,” but with pre
venting the Japanese from being
absorbed into Chinese blood.
Large numbers of Japanese girls
have married and will marry
Chinese husbands.but no Chinese
girl will marry a Japanese.
The new Chinese nationalism is
a growing, living thing, the nat
ural result of the steady penetra
tion of modern ideas. It is in it
self constructive, and not destruc
tive, as evidenced in the amazing
internal progress reported by all
travelers. It is as near to the
heart of the Chinese as the Five
Year plan is to the Soviets. Giv
en another three years of peace
and continuous development and
China would be changed into a
modern States.
But it is exactly because Japan
will not give China a chance to
continue her normal development
and internal reconstruction, at a
time when at last China has pull
ed herself together and got on the
road of progness, that the Chinese
hatred against Japan is so deep
and bitter. What the Japanese
are doing is, in common English
parlance, “unfair.” It is neither
English “fair play" nor Chinese
“gentkmanliness” nor Japanese
“bushido.”

as “reducing”. Fortunately sty

are in vogue and queues are not
necessary for high social standing
in China. The skinny figure may
give way to well rounded curves,

old rule about three square meals

come a huskier race, better able

"The work carried on by these
people,” said Rev. Youel, “is the
highest order. The Eskimos ap
pear intelligent and happy. Their
health has been improved throu
gh cleanliness and sanitation and
the type of education which they
receive seams to be best suited
to their environ.” he added.
On his return trip from Wales,
Tuesday aft.moon, Rev. Youel
visited at Teller for a couple of
hours, while the plane made a
side trip to bring other passen
gers for the trip into Nome.
Farthest West In U. S.
The Thornton-Memorial Church
is the farthest West church in the
United States, and on the North
American Continent. It is a small
wooden structure, and when ser
vices are held, it is crowded to
overflowing.
Religious history of this section
tells many exciting tales and of
the work carried on. But, said
Rev. Youel, today, the Eskimos
appear to be receiving the best in
religious, educational and medi
cal training, carried on under en
lightened and intelligent direc
tion.
