WILL EXTEND
EDUCATIONAL
WORK IN EAST
SHANGHAI, Oct. 31 (by Associ
ated Press).—Following an investiga
tion of the activities of the Rockefel-,
ler Foundation in China and the Phil
ippines that was conducted through
the summer months by Dr. George E.
Vincent, president of the Foundation,
it is understood extensions of the edu
cational work in the Far East, partic
ularly in China, will be authorized at
the annual meeting of the Rockefeller
Foundation in New York in December.
Existing medical schools and hospi
tals at various places in China have
been receiving contributions and aid
from the Foundation. The two most
important enterprises of the organ
ization in China are the Peking Union
Medical College, under construction at
the Chinese capital, and the Shanghai
Medical College, the erection of which
is expected to be authorized at the
annual meeting.
The main purpose of the institutions
is to train Chinese as practitioners of
medicine, according to the standards
of American schools of the best class.
The development of an indigenous
medical profession of a high order
and the ultimate transfer of this form
of education to Chinese hands are the
announced aims of the Foundation in
China. Three of the main buildings
of the Peking Union Medical College
will be opened this fall.
The project to build the Shanghai
Medical College has been under con
sideration since 1915, but the diffi
culty of obtaining materials from
abroad has prevented the beginning of
building. The Rockefeller Foundation
is expected to decide at its December
meeting when work will be started on
the Shanghai institution.
The newly-organized Healy River
Coal Corporation, which has taken
over the Burns mine at Nenana, is in
creasing its investment at the mine
and preparing to enlarge the output
in the near future. Several new
buildings are in process of construc
tion, including bunkhouses and a pow
der house for storing explosives.

UNITED STATES URGED
TO ACCEPT SHARE IN
MANDATORY SPHERE
LONDON, Oct. 31 (by Associated
Press).—“If mankind is to move for
ward in step, America, Canada, Aus
tralia. New Zealand, South Africa,
each in its own sphere, must con
tribute its stream of effort and illumi
nation to the common pool,” says the
Round Table, in discussing the re
sponsibility of the nations for the fu
ture of the world.
“What that means in practice we
can not now do more than mention,”
the editor continues. “That it means
the acceptance of large mandatory re
sponsibilities by America goes with
out saying. A nation of 100,000,000,
possessed of far greater wealth than
any other in the world, can not con
tinue self-centered in her own home
and grow to the full stature of na
tional manhood.
“America laid herself open to the
charge of selfish indifference to any
thing but her own interests by the
slowness with which she recognized
her duty in the war, and the conse
quently comparatively small sacrifice
which she made for the cause of hu
man freedom.
“She is now showing a similar read
iness to try to escape from practical
responsibility for the unfortunate peo
ples not yet able to stand alone, and
consequently leave them to be exploit
ed, and in some cases massacred, by
peoples in no way qualified to have
control of them. America will doubt
less rise rapidly to a sense of her re
sponsibilities. But it is urgent that
she should not delay.
. “The problem of the dominions is
different. They pulled their full
weight during the war. All of them
except Canada have now assumed
trusteeship for backward peoples.”
The postal department has author
ized a twice-a-week mail service be
tween Fairbanks and Nenana for the
winter months. The contract has been
let to the Alaskan engineering com
mission. The mail will leave Fair
banks on Tuesdays and Fridays at 6
o’clock in the morning.
