Dr. Tenney's View on Revisiting China: Foreign Guards on Railways Advocated Among the passengers arriving on the str. President Wilson were Dr. and Mrs. Charles D. Tenney, now of Polo Alto, California, well known in China, where Dr. Tenney has been connected with educational and diplomatic circles since 1886. When Dr. Tenney resigned from the diplomatic service after a long and distinguishedt career and left for the United States in October 1920, he had been acting as charge d'affaires in the American Legation, Peking for some time. His return to China at this time, he assured' a representative of the '"North-China Daily News,'' has no political significance whatever, but Mrs. Tenney and he will visit their children, Mr. Ray Tenney, U. S. Consul at Tsinanfu, Mrs. M. Wolfers of Peking, and Mrs. K. E, Jordan of Peking during the winter. They left for Peking on Saturday.
When asked for his views regarding the Lincheng outrage, Dr. Tenney said he felt that foreign guards should protect the railroad, under the supervision of foreigners, and foreign forces should be established at the principal ports, as is the case now in Tientsin and Peking. '"The most outstanding change in China since the autumn of 1920, as I see it, the amazing loss of prestige of the foreigner," continued Dr. Tenney. "I regard this partly "s a result of the too late deportation of the Germans and relations between China and Russia whereby the Chinese have been able to puly the Russians.'
