CHINA PAPER CANNOT >j?
SEE RELIEF FOR COUNTRY
^ IN PACIFIC PARLEY
I eking, Oct 31.—The Tientsin
newspaper, Ta Chun Bhang Pao, be-
lieves that, with- civil strike upset-
ting the country, China can hope tor
little benefit from the Pacific con-
ference.
’’The ministry of foreign affairs has
Just established an Investigation bu-
reau tor the purpose of gathering; ma-
terials, records and other documents
to be used at the Pacific conference
in connection with China’s case,” says
that paper.
“We believe this can do little to-
ward attaining our object, ter so long
as China lacks the power essential
to success, foreign powers win con-
tinue to look down upon J>er and treat
her as an Inferior; so that even If we
have overwhelming evidence at our
disposal to support our cane, they
will never take the trouble to go into
It so as to render a decision to our
favor. Under such circumstances it
would be foolish to expect success.
"The all-important question today
is to settle our domestic strife. Wheir
peace and order are restored, for-
eigners to our midst wUl not sufTer
from occasional disturbances, abd
their ptoistere and government*, see-
tog that China still baa tbe ability to
maintain order, w« naturally treat
us with respect, and tbs Japanese
propaganda that China has not tbs
necessary capacity to protect foreign
life and property and that Japan
should be appointed guardian over
her will explode by ttseir. ,
‘‘If all this can be accomplished be-
fore the Pacific conference, wr as*
not without a ray of hope. If, hbtr-
over, w* indulge to continual civil
strifd between one province and an-
other we are simply fnrnlshtog evi-
dence to prove th# truth of the Japa-
nese contention.
“For tbe pease of the Car east and
the interests of their nationals for-
eign powers cannot but approve the
Internationalisation of China and H Is
perhape not unlikely that they will
charge Japan with the task of over-
stetog us. When this happens our
sovereignty win be completely lost
and what favor can be expected from
the powers when we set forth all our
evidence and records before them to
support our eaast

eminent work to avoid this eventual
Ity."
