(
PHILADELPHIA, May 29 (by Asso
ciated Press).—American missionaries
in Korea, despite the hardships and
dangers incident to reconstruction fol
lowing the quelling by the Japanese
of the recent uprising are planning
to “Christianize every district in the
^country,” according to the annual re
port of the Presbyterian Board of,
Missions to the Presbyterian General !
Assembly, just made public,
f Referring to the revolt, the report
says: “The result proved anew that
Japan will not voluntarily grant the
Korean independence; that the Kor
eans cannot secure it by force and
that other governments, having long
ago recognized Japanese annexation
of the peninsula, will not interfere.
Costly too, was the movement to the
Japanese, for it reinforced their
critics, disheartened their friends,
alienated the sympathy of the Allied
nations, and brought upon the ruth
less militarists the opprobrious name
of ‘the Huns of the Orient.’ ”
Regarding the attitude of the Amer
ican missionaries toward the Koreans’
revolt against the Japanese, the re
port quotes Bishop Herbert Welch of
the Methodist Episcopal Church of
Korea as saying: “It is no evidence
of unfriendliness to the Japanese peo
ple that the missionaries become
alienated in sympathy from the Jap
. anese government but only a testi
mony to deep humanity of their feel
ings and to an indignation against
wrong doing which was worthy of all
praise.”
"There is a general disposition to
give the new administration in Korea
a fair chance to refnedy the undoubt
ed abuses that exist,” continues the
report. “Americans,” said the report,
“should distinguish between civil and
military parties among the Japanese.
The former is composed of enlighten
ed and progressive men, who feel as
* we do about the outrages that have
been committeed in Korea. The latter
Includes a large number of men who
are thoroughly Prussian in their tem
per and conduct.
“Americans, should bear in mind
that there is a considerable element
among the Japanese themselves who
are greatly disturbed by the stern and
iron-handed policy of the military
• party in dealing with the Koreans
and who favor a wise and humane
policy in dealing with them. Tt would
be not only unwise but unjust to
make indiscriminate condemnation of
the whole Jananese nation.”
Declaring that “China is in a state
of chaos,” the Board says” it has
been gratifying to read the reassur
ing statements of several eminent
Japanese as to the intentions of their
government adding, however, that
"something more than words, how
ever sincere is required to remove
misgivings and distrust.” Greed and
altruism, democracy and militarism,
it says, are struggling for the mast
ery. During the past year, the re
port says, Chinese churches connect
ed with the Presbyterian, Congrega
tional, United Brethren and London
Missions, have formed one organic
Christian body. All other evangel
<
ical denominations have been invited
to join.
Presbyterian foreign missionaries
increased in 1919 from 1,364 to 1.428,
and the native workers from 6,806 to ;
6,856. In order to meet the high cost
of living, which in some fields like
Japan has increased over 300 percent,
the living allowances for the Pres
byterian missionaries have been in
creased from the former standard of
$1,250 a year to $1,500.
New methods of dealing with sedi
tion is declared to have made activi
ties in India more difficult, “ all non
British subjects desiring to engage in
philanthropic work, educational, medi
cal or missionary work being required
to obtain a license.” This was mod
ified for the missionaries provided
they declared due obedience and res
pect to the government and carefully
abstained from political affairs. Rein
forcements are called for “to check
the growing power of Mohammedan
ism,” in West Africa.
