"Manchukuo.”

With the full cognisance of the authorities. every possible means of modern propaganda is being employed against the YMCA in Harbin as well as other cities in "Manchukuo", the ultimate goal being none other than the closing of all branches of this organiza- tion in all cities and towns in Manchuria.

Li Min-Yuan, described by the "Harbin Times" as an important official

or and social worker "Manchukuo", is reported to have declared: "The activities of the Y. M. C. A. in Manchukuo' are harmful and cannot be tolerated any longer. As is well known. this 'State is being run along the principles of 'Wang Tao' or the Kingly Way which regards the spiritual education of the people as the corner-stone in the founda-" tion of the new State'. Viewed from this standpoint, the activi- tles of the YMCA are absolutely lacompatible with the principles of Wang Tao', because, instead of bringing up the people in the spirit of filial duty, benevolence and tranquility, the Y. M. C. A. lays stress on the material aspects of life."

It may be recalled that in the spring of 1931, a Sinkiang-Nanking by the was projected airine Ministry of Communications. In the winter of the same year, a successful trial flight was staged by the Eurasia Aviation Company between Pelping and Tihua, cap!- tal of Sinklang, with Mr. Li Ching-Chung, now president of the Eurasia, as one of the passen- gers.

THE YOUNG OFFENDER

And His Reformation

10

(Special Air Mall Service)

London May 28.. Nothing could be more typicat of the change that has come over the spirit of the administration of the law than Lord Hewart's address upon the treatment of the, young offender. Almost exactly a century ago. as the Lord Chlef Justice points out, children in their early teens were being sentenced long terms of transportation for petty theft..The courts had no regard to the age of the offender. They weightd the gravity of the -guilt, and meted out what was ther regarded as the appropriate dose of punishment for a particu- far crime. The barbarity of the sentences did not act as a deter- rent.

and the

To-day both the law practice of the Courts are based on a belief in the possibilities of reformation. What is desired is not merely to prevent the manu- facture of criminals but actually to multiply the number of good citizens." To that end the State The air service between Shanghas created the whole new ma- hat and Tacheng, north-western border town of Sinklang, was formerly inaugurated by the Eurasia Co. Dec. 15, 1931.

un The points of call in Sinklang Hamt were Tacheng, Tihua, and in eastern Sinklang.

The distance between Tacheng miles. and "Shanghai is 4,050 While it formerly took months to reach the coastal plain from Sin- ,klang, the air trip between Tacheng and Shanghal takes only four days, including stops DYCT- night.

Colony Hit By Slump

(Special Air Mall Service)

London May 28.

In the interest of truth, I feel it my bounden duty to dispel all those fanciful legends telling of the "glamorous allure" of London's Chinatown, writes a correspondent. In fact, to, paraphrase "Charles Dickens, "there ain't no sich thing."

For many years now novelists and other sensation-mongers have painted a lurid plcture of Lime- house, complete with "skulking Chinamen," "secret dope dens," where Bright Young Things are lured to destruction and sinister

splashes in the Thames.

1.

Even now motor-conch loads cf tourists are "personally conducted". to see night life in Chinatown, with the implication that it is very hec- tic indeed.

They are sadly disillusioned, för their fearful glances encounter nothing more disturbing than a group of Chinese children, oracting & toll of pennies, or the cynical smiles of the children's parents.

Of course, the proprietors of neighbouring chop-suey establish- ments are appropriately, grateful, in present hard times, for these visitors, with their excited provin- cial or Colonial accents.

A DESPERATE. STRUGGLE The plain, unvanished truth is that to-day the Chinese colony of about 150 men, women and chil- dren, crammed into a small area round Pennyfields and Limehouse causeway, are facing a desperate struggle for existence, which leaves no time or inclination for lurid activities.

only Chinese Capitalists in Lime- house-make a comfortable living. out of their compartriots from their worries.

Nor can dire poverty or any amount of police supervision stamp out oplum smoking. Somehow the wherewithai for a pipe is always forthcoming.

.

I saw one man sway out of a doorway. His eyes were contract- ed to pin-points, his face was puffy and his galt was that of a sleepwalker. No one topk any no- tice of him, but it was perfectly,

obvious

that he was recovering from the after-effects of oplum.

ENGLISH WLYES

But despite addiction to the pipe or the fascination of gambling. the Chinese are model fathers and. husbands. They are gentle and. considerate, and no trouble is 100 great if it will secure- the hap- piness of their loved ones.

Curiously enough, I was told that there is only one Chinese-born woman in the whole colony; all the other wives are Europeans— mainly English.

After a very short while they, 100, acquire that quality of patient resignation which their husbands have inherited from. an age-old civilisation."

This domestic trait of the Chin- ese was emphasised by a school- master who has known China- town for over thirty years,

"It does not matter what other sacrifices they have to make," he told me, "these Chinese parents always contrive to send their boys and girls to school neatly dressed and spotlessly clean.
