NEW AUSTRIAN

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 (by Asso

lar expected to replace the Austrian
coin throughout the Red sea commer
| cial district has been put into circu
| lation in Eritrea by Italy, according
i to an announcement by the Italian em
j bassy.
I Besides Eritrea, the Red sea district
I includes Abyssinia, French, British
and Italian Somalilands, Socatra, Ma
! kalla, Eden protectorate and the Ara
! bian Red sea provinces of Yemen, Asir
’ and Hejez. Primarily the new Ital
ian coin is for Eritrea, but its more

' legal circulating medium in Eritrea,
; and the new dollar will be used sole

Theresa dollar of Austria, which has
been the trade coin of the Red sea
district, was solely a trade dollar, and
was not issued for governmental use.

JAPANESE PEER
GIVES PRAISE
MISSIONARIES
TOKIO, Aug. 10 (by Associated
Press).—Dr. Senshi Egi, a member of
the house of peers, on returning from
an inspection of conditions In Korea,
is quoted as making the following ref
erence to foreign missionaries:
“I have done my best to get at the
truth of the reports that have been cir
culated regarding the instigation of
Korean sudents by their missionary
teachers against the Japanese authori
ties, but have found that with very
few exceptions the rumors are not
true. The impression left on me was
that the missionaries are honestly
striving to develop the country in or
der that it may yield good results to
the Koreans. Whatever their motives,
there is no reason why the Japanese
should not welcome those efforts.”
Dr. Egi said that Korea has at
tained striking progress since the in
auguration of the new regime. “But,”
he added, “there is yet room for im
provement. While I was in Korea, I
took every opportunity to meet rep
resentative Koreans and learn their
point of view. The most intelligent
of them realized that it is futile to try
to establish an independen govern
ment. But I think it is very necessary
that the Japanese should know that
the Koreans aim at local autonomy.”
