It was his opinion thus the epidemic could be more effectively countered if the health authorities, foreign. and Chinese, co-operated. He acknow- ledged appreciation of the action of the Municipal health authorities in throwing open part of the Range Road Isolation Hospital for over- flow cholera cases and said that it would prove very helpful in deal- ing with the outbreak.

TIENTSIN PAPERB COMMENT.
The short summary we have received of "The Times's" article on that "very damaging weapon".| the boycott does not convey very clearly what was in the mind of the writer, and those who delight in our "confused British ways" have waxed profanely playful on the subject, remarks the "Peking and Tientsin Times." It is stated that the boycott is maintained by an idea or an obsession, and it should be the definite object of British policy to dispel the obses- sion by all possible means." It
is not always easy to suppress an idea, and still harder to dispel it when it comes out of the chrysalis But and becomes an obsession. the boycott idea is not among the difficult category. It usually sup-. presses itself, and it will do so as it has done before, because it is essentially contrary to self-inter- eat, It is pre-eminently the boomerang of economic politics, inflicting hardships qulte 23 severe on the boycotters as upon the boycotted,

There are, of course, ways in which the diapelling of the obses sion may be assisted.. Some of them have been openly discussed in Shanghai, and in a restricted sense practised, with notably healthy reactions. There is an unexploited field for retaliation in the Straits Settlements, for in- stance, where many thousands of Chinese are making their for- tunes, and, instead of distributing most of their incomes in the coun try wherein they are made, as the yaat majority of foreigners do in China, send large sums annually to their native land. Enormous sums of money in the aggregate leave the United States in this way for Europe. The same circumstances apply in the Straits. Life could be made very uncomfortable for the large Chinese population in these Settlements. We do not suppose it would ever be made as impos- sible and insupportable as in Soviet Siberia, where Chinese
