"T.P's" SUBLIME CALM ABOUT CHINA

China's Students in London

London, Dec, 21.

_Amond the guests at the annual dinner of the Central Union of Chinese Students held under the presidency of Dr. T K. Lee last night were Sir Denison Ross and Mr. T. P. O'Connor. The latter said that in spite of all the row that was happening the future national unity and integrity of China was jessured. 0

Mr. Chu Chao-hsin, the Chinese Minister, warned the students that it would be useless for them merely to copy what they -learn here when they return home. He advised them to adapt what they learn to Bastern conditions. He \donsidered it an impossibility that the monarchy would be restored in China. China's new house must be put in order but this was the duty of the occupiere—not the outsiders. He considered that the system of education in Britain particularly suited China because of the existing facilities and ithe friendly relations it created. The Chinese: Minister hoped that the kind offer of the British Government to remit the Boxer Indemnity for educational uses would come into effect at an early date.—Reuter.
