LAMONT TELLS CHINESE PATH TO PROGRESS Says Nation Must Give Up Hero Worship if It Would Advance. NEW YORK. 3.—the Chinese bare the capacity, Industry and character to make themselves a progressive modern ailon, but are obstructed In their progress by the lengths to which they carry 1 fore father worship, according to Thomas W. Lament, of the firm of J. P. Morgan & Cos., one of the leading authorities u China In the United States. Mr. Lamoat organized the fight on famine lfc t'blna a year ago. Mr. Lamont declared the gains by hlna at th** Washington conference were uermous. but the Orientals would have give up their ancestor worship If they were to take advantage of all benefits ft* •e derived from the conference decisions. Substitution of Christianity for Confu.uulsm was suggested to Mr. Lamont by •ne Chinaman as the solution of that nation’s difficulties. ’•No one can exaggerate the lmponano* • f the return of Shantung to t£e Chin~se," Mr. Lamont said. “We have heard f the matter, for many months. It probably played its part in defe: ting the Treaty of Versailles In the Senate. So much had been safld of It that when the Japanese agreed to return It the fact was t assed over In the newspapers rather Kghtly. ’But no one who has been in China recently could fall to realize the vital -ivnitiram-e of this question. The news will be received with relief and delight beyond measure in China. “The tremendous boycott against Japan, started bj Chinese students, swept the whole country, and its effect on Japan was very unfavorable. This agreement now puts Japan out of the • lass of nations that need to be boycotted. "There is no more orderly community China.ln the world The gov.:n- • inent is disorderly. Mitt the prtople are orderly For instance, there were 23.000 arrests in Pekin in one year—not so many considering the great size of the popula- | of these only 345 were a j breach of the peace. "The Chinese are a great, honest, fAi- I gal. Industrious people who love peace,; who love their families and who are moving on toward the light and who are j looking to us every moment for help.” I Mr. Lamont praised the United States for coming to China’s aid at the time of the fami-c last year and declared that i the promptn** sand effectiveness of the j work was largelv due to the prompt as- ! sistance rendered by John D. Rockefeller.! "Few flings have stirred the Chinese I people so much," he said, “as the great j buildings of the Rockefeller medical center going up In the center of.Pekin, to* be the fccus of medical education, sanl- j tation and health for 400.000.000 people.” j

QUICK RISEIN ENGLISH POUND CHIEF MYSTERY Wall Street Puzzled by Sensational Advance in Sterling. NEW YORK, March 3.—Wall Street has had its full share of “mystery” stocks and "mystery” movements In prices, but the latest "mystery” puzzling the Street is the sensational rise in the value of the English pound to within less than 50 cents of parity. In Fetruary, 1920, demand Sterling sold at ?2.18. Since then It has steadily advanced UDtil during the early part of this month It sold at close to ?4.40. Manipulation by London bankers, it is believed, played a large part in the upturn. However, the advance has attracted attention to the rapid strides made by Grrfat Britirin in getting back to a peace footing. The British trade figures for January reeeitly made public furnish a good illustration of Britain's return to a pre-war level. Imports for January were announced as £76.488.000 and exports £ti3.146 0(0. This is the smallest excess of imports over exports since August, 1913. A recognition that the labor and political situation !n Britain has improved has also contributed to the strength in the English pound. Great Britain has weathered practically all of her labor storms. The long, troublesome Irish situation has been satisfactorily settled. The government is now turning its efforts toward a peaceful settlement of the Egyptian- controversy. The Washington conference for the redaction of armaments, allowing for drastic cats In government expenditures in the military branches of the government,

ITALIANS WISH TO JOIN U. S. IN BUSINESS LIFE Piume Episode Forgotten by Men Who Would Invade Near EJast. ROME, March 3.—ltal an Industrialists are anxious to go Into business with America for tlfe exploitation of the NearEnsttyn market. A plan which Is common to many of the big manufacturers and Italian exporters is to purchase raw materials in America, manufacture them in Italy and sell them to Turkey and the nefithboriug countries. Italy Is without doubt the first western power In the hearts of the Turkish nationalists. Italian 111 will against Americf, which rose to such a heat during the Flume Incidents, lias entirely died down. The Italian exnfciih that their demonstrations were agalnWt Mr. Wilson, and not against the American people. But It Is quite probable that their difficulties since with other nations have helped to efface the memories of Flume. ITALY’S ATTITUDE EXPLAINED. Gencrallys peaking, ItaJy’u attitude to her neighbors may be described as follows : ( America—Very friendly and anxious for close relations. " England—lndifferently friendly, with a recognition of the necessity of getting along with England, and of a limited economic dependence on the British Isles. France—A very keen dislike, which In many quarters would merit an even stronger expression. Germany—ltiJly has a keen appre-

elation that because of her own depreciated currency she must do business v,*lth Germany, whose low mark makes commercial relations possible. 'Fear that Germany Is attempting to secure an economic domination of Italy keefcs alive a distrust of her former enemy. But there Is no feeling of hate such as Is found In France. RATHER SORRY FOR AUSTRIA. Austria is down and out and-is rather sorry for her former foe. The healing of the ancient sore is best evidenced by the fact* that thousands of Australian children were brought to Italy last summer and given care and good nourishment in Italian homes. Jugo Slovakia—Her eastern neighbor shares with France an occasional flareup of Italian animosity, usually preceded by some International Incident which has wounded Italy’s’ pride. Greece —The feeling between the two countries has anything but good, but the Greek Premier Gunarls visit to Rome has done much to Iron out the differences. If she has any feeling of affection for another power Italy is directing It, now at least, toward America.
