Serious Trouble In The Orient
The teeming millions in the Orient are about to have
a sharp reduction in their numbers. China is on the blink
of the worst blood bath in the history of that unhappy
nation. India is just short of an outbreak of violence
* which may take the lives of many thousands. The sword
is busy again and may stay busy for a long time to come.
Disease and famine will cut a huge swath from
among those whom war will pass up. .
China and India are thejinost densely populated areas
on earth and when the four horsemen ride there the los'
ses in human life are appalling. But there still ^ill be
. more people per square mile in the Orient when the.pres-
ent situationiare ironed out than anywheue else on earth;
still too many probably to be properly supposed by its
economy. The problems created by overpopulation still
will not be solved. °
It seems too late now to do anything about prevent-
ing" thF civil w¥rs in China aYid India. They are the result
of conditions dating back for ages; conditions which can-
not be corrected overnight.
.) The things that can be done now are two-fold. First,
the United Natio,ns can set up machinery to study and at-
tempt correction of the situation in the.Orient. Second,
the same body can endeavor to arrange—without risking?
another world war. we believe—to prevent opportunist^
Russia from capitilizing on conditions in the Orient to
promote her own interests. v
As the nearest of the Big Four to the trouble, Russia
naturally is rhor^ interested in the outcome than anyone
else. But her political maneuvers of late would indicate
that any action she took would not be prompted by a feel-
ing of humanitarianism toward suffering neighbors. Rus-
sia still needs a lot of things before her people can be giv-
en the standard of living communism promised them.
Some of these might be picked up by adroit "interven-
tion" in the troubles of her neighbors, China and India.

HAL BOYLE:
FORMER QUEEN CITY
OF THE ORIENT IS
NOW A SHAMBLES
j By Spencer Moosa
For Hal Boyle
Sh<*nghgi,v- (AP) - Confused and
expensive Shanghai, once" the
queen city of the Orient is not
what it used to be, and many an
old China hand sheds a quiet tear
;is he predicts that it never will
lie again.
The tolerant minority say the
Chinese inherited many new and
different problems when they took
back a city which had bean oc-
cupied by the Japanese for eight ^
years and which before that was
famed fdr its smoothly-run inter-
national settlement and French
concession.
No Longer Orderly
The Bund,'famous waterfront
street along the Whangpoo, lis
no longer a clean, orderly thoro-
ughfare. Peddlers offer all sorts
of merchandise and services..
In the central district, business
lieart of this metropolis Of 4,-
000,000, portable restaurants line
some of the finest streets. I,
Open-air stalls make traffic im-
possible in others, notably Blood
alley, which derived its name from
the number of fights spawned in
its dancehalls and bars.
Offer Many Items
Blood alley's stalls overflow the
sidewalks, now have spilled out
into the street. The proprietors of-
fer a wide variety of goods: cos-
metics, chocolate bars, .cigarettes
and mosquito nets. They do a
thriving business.
An importer who had brought
in some winter raincoats to retail
at #80 U. S. found that before
he could get his cargo cleared
through customs, some of his coats
were on sale in these stalls at half
the price*-They came, as did much
other merchandise, from Shang-
hai's busy thieves.
Stealing Prevalent
Stealing of ships' cargoes Is one
of many Shanghai rackets,' but
strictly in the big-league class.
Importers estimate their losses
from theft run into hundreds of
millions of Chinese dollars month-
ly.
Shanghai is expensive. A taxi
ride which used to cost the equ-
ivalent of 33.cehts, U. S. now costs
$3 U. S. Luncheon and a couple
of beers at a good hotel cost $15
to $20; U. S. for two persons. ■
Night clubs, second-rate by any
standard, <>ften charge $3.50 or

He admits that now and then one
seems rather cool.
His hobby Is picking up hitch
hikers. He warns them of the evils
Of sip, too, and says he won 15
' converts among them last year.
Recently Ordained
He received his call in the midst
of a revival he conducted at the
little saw mill town of Porter. Re-
cently he was ordained as a Bap-
tist minister.
Not long ago, he closed a meet-
ing with 23 additions to the church.
One of the converts was a man of
79.

off, many Houstonians say it's
