To the Editor of the "Nowru-Curwa Dat News"
Stn—I have just received a bunch of church publications dating from Angus:, 1925, to the current issue. T have read and clipped every article about the China situation. but single exception they are written by missionaries on initial furlough. [One is almost forced to the conclusion that there ig within the membership of the churches in America a Gold Brick Buyers Association, and that the young furloughed missionary boosting its membership to a magnitude out of all proportion to the common sense that the American public is proverbially known possess.
The facts(?) are England forced opium upon China. That is why she fought that dastardly war 1839-42, The facts(?) are that. the shooting of those school(?) boys: in Shanghai wag due to the love of wielding autocratic power. No one but a Britisher would do such an unjustifiable act. The facts(?) are there are more bandits in America in proportion to the population than there are in China. The facts(?) are the Chinese administration of justice is so impartial that extrality rights at present enjoyed by foreigners should be instantly abolished. The facte(2) are that the foreign supervision of the Chinese Maritime Customs is depriving China of vac revenues which her government is seeking for in all their dealings with China have so soiled their hands that to cleanse them would redden the waters of the whole Pacific Osean.
Ad would like to make a suggestion' which I think should be given a modicum of consideration by those who will be called upon to appear before inquiring groups at Home, My suggestion is that there be selected a small group representing the Joficial, business and missionary groups from the Weg! to prepare small handbook containing documentary and gilt-edge evidence on questions that open-minded and in. quiring folks at Home are desirous Jof having given them by those who are supposed to be in a position of knowing about China. The furlough-jon ary, business man, and ictal fa each in duty Bound to give evidence basea on facts so that an intelligent opinion may be formulate Jed by members of churches, clubs, chambers of commerce, or any other groups before whom. one is invited to discuss affairs Chinese.
Herewith my card.
