Intelligent Chinese know full well, however, that the Republicans command a 'majority in the Senate, and it is mainly upon this knows ledge that they have their hopes of a mistake ing rectified and justies dune to their country. As a matter of fact, the Chiarie appreciate the strength of their present position and are nïraid to do any thing t-they weaken-it. They admit frankly the anomaly of thina remaining in a state of war with tiermany after her Allies have resumed relations with Berlin, and BRF declaring peace with Germany has bear wingled with practical, unaniinity through both Houses of Parliament. In order to remove the anomaly, the Government is being urged to arrange for the issue of a Presidential mandate declaring the state of war at an end and ordering the resumption of Friendly relations, It is suggested that a neutral Power probably "Holland should be invited to transmit this com- munication to Berlin. Exactly what the next step will be is not clear at the moment, but it is tolerably certain that, once the Government is satisfied regarding the legal aspect of the action to be taken, a pronouncement will be made. In whatever course she takes China will undoubtedly be influenced by the trend of events. Consequently, domestic politics in the United States have more than a national, interest; they are of world-wide importance. It was Ameries which indured. China to declare war upon the Central European Powers, and it to America that Chine looks for help in her present
troubles.
That she will be "dimppointed goes without saying, for China'is obvious ly expecting more than she is likely to receive in the most "favourable circum
