MR. WELLINGTON KOO AT
HOME":
A MAN OF MANY PARTS:
LBY A CORRESPONDENT: TO THE TIMES.”] "In a' London drawing-room yesterday 1 at and talked with a young man whose i charm of manner, musical voice, and faultless, cultivated English immediately attracted me to him. It was Mr. Wel lington Koo, the new Chinese Minister to Great Britain. Here we have no sphinx- like mask, none of that inscrutability which is commonly associated with the faces of Orientals. On the contrary, Mr. Wellington Koo's face is marked by great mobility and his sinile shows that he is not without a keen sense of humour.
China's new representative is a man of great hurts; he is one of the fine fleur of the Far East. At 4 years of age he has, attained a recognized position which might well be envied by men of more than double his years. In Washington, in Paris, and at the meeting of the League of Nations at Geneva, his quali tie a diplomatist have received full recognition.
Mr. Koo was educated in America. For seven years he studied at Columbia University, where he obtained the degree of Doctor of Philosophy: His principal subjects were diplomacy and national law, which he 'studied under Professor John Bassett Moore.
inter-
Returning to China, Mr. Roo became English Secretary of President Yuan Shih-kai, at the same time acting as secretary to the Cabinet. Transferred to the Foreign Office, he became Counsellor there, and acquired practical experi ence of diplomatic, life, Shortly after wards he was appointed Minister to Mexico, but before he had time to take up his post he was transferred in the sume capacity to Washington. This was in 1915. From Washington he went to the Peace Conference as China's Pleni- potentiary, and later on ns head of the Chinese Delegation. Last June Mr. Koo returned to Washington, but in the at it was announced that he was to be transferred to London. He attend ed the Assembly of the League of Nations at Geneva, and besides being Minister to Great Britain will be the representative of China on the Council of the League.
The new Minister is an ardent advo cate of progress. He reminded me that. although China was old, her Repub. lic, was young. Her great desire, was, as speedily as possible, to "catchi up!! with the rest of the world. that connection he had always recog nized. he told me, that the criticism of his country by The Times was construc tive, and was animated by a desire to help China.
Mr. Koo plays tennis and fishes. He admits that is placid hour with a rod has a great fascination for him. Hitherto fie has mostly fished.in the sea, but now he hopes to gain for dry fly-fishing, which he remarked was far more skilful and exciting.
at
Mr. Koo has an admiration for journal ism. He explained to me, with obvious eagerness, how he had worked on the newspaper which is daily issued Columbia University. All the postя upon the' staff are obtained as, the result of competition. He began as a reporter; then he became successively associate editor. news editor, managing editor, and, finally editor-in-chief. This experi ence, be said, had given him an invalu- able insight inte journalisms.
INDIAN DIVORCES.
DECISION AFFECTING HUNDREDS OF MARRIAGES.
"Reuter having sent several amended versions of the cable regarding the Keyes. diyorce case now states that the message: should state that costs were given against the co-respondent, and the latest mes age continues His Lordship ruled that a decreó granted in India dissolving d marriage contracted by persons resid ent there, but domiciled in England, was invalid in England.
His Lordship also decided that the East India Councils Act of 1801 was not war- rapted to make a law to empower the Courts of India to dissolve the marriages, of persons not domiciled within their jurisdiction.
He declared that the marriage of Capt. Keyes, which was solemnised in Calcutta, subsisted, but the petitioner is now entitled to a decree,. -
An India Official, on being interviewed by a representative of the Daily Express on the decision, said that the Govern ment of India would probably be consult ed before in Act of Parliament was passed.
The seriousness of the Keyes jodgment is mado evident by the statement, of Sir H. Erle Richards, who appeared for the Secretary of state for India, that it may make illegitimate the children of hun dreds of second marriages of persona divorced in India since 1869:"
It is pointed out that the judgment governs the relationship between Great Britain and the Dominions as well as India, and, failing Imperial legislation in which the Dominions concur to remedy the conflict of laws, persons divorced in the Dominions and India will bo guilty of bigamy if they remarry in England,
It is stated that the Attorney-General will consult the Legal Department of the Tadin Office with a view to introducing a Bill validating Indian divorce in Eng land."
