PARING, February 18th. BRITISH MİNINTER'S DEPARTURE
That the Chinese share with the British people and others" general regret as the "departure of His Excellency Sir John Jordan, the British Minister, has been shown by the round of entertainments given the Right Honourable gentleman. Three or four of these, which have taken place, stand out. Perhaps the most in teresting was the dinner given by the members of the Anglo-Chinese Society in the Waichalopu on Tuesday night when Bir Reginald Gamble presided over a large and distinguished gathering." Premier Chin Yung-peng paid eloquent tribute to the splendid services which Sir John had rendered to China and to Great Britain, These were enlarged upon by Mr. Wang Ta-hsieh, former minister to the Court of St. James, while a tangible token of Chinese regard was the beautiful paint ing and scroll, by Mr. Kang Pah-king, which was presented to His Excellency. Sir John's reply was very simple, but revealed how touched he was by the kindly sentiments expressed, and the record of almost forgotten work on his part which had been recited.
Another interesting function was when the British Minister took leave of Presi dent Hsu Shih-chang at the Palace, where a farewell tiffin was given.
Yesterday afternoon the British com munity as such took farewell of their beloved. Minister for which purpose reception was given at the residence of Sir Francia Aglen under the auspices of the British Chamber of Commerce and Sir Francis. About six o'clock Bir Francis called the guests together in the large drawing room, and expressed the regret which all felt at the departure of Bir John Jordan, and wished him God speed. Thereafter he called for three cheers for Six Jahn, which were cordially given His Excellency was deeply touched, and it was after a little silence that be re-

said that he appreciated their plied Kindly sentiments. He willed them many happy years of useful work in China and hoped they would all enjoy prosperity, After which the company took farewell of the Minister.
Last night he was entertained to s private dinner by Marshal Tand, Chi-jui.
To-night he will entertain members of the Legation in his own house, and of Monday he leaves Peking for Shanghai en route to London. | THE NEW DOYEN..

The New York Tintér states that close study" of the military situation through- out the world in the light of recent im portant changes in the military and political situation is being made by military experts 2nd diplomats Washington, who are especially concerned over the spread of Bolshevist militarism, and speculating as to the role Japan will play in the changed situation.
in
the
The important alterations in general situation are the collapse of the the Russian, anti-Bolshevist movement; rapid spread of the Red armed menace towards Japan, China, India, Persia, and Western Europe; the decision of the American Government to withdraw Its army from Siberia, which in turn has developed a new and unexpected situation for the Japanese; important changes in the map of the Pacific as a result of the ratification of the Versailles Treaty, which has given Japan certain important geo- graphical advantages, and the imminence of a concentrated military attack by the Bolshevist army against Poland.
Of Japan, the writer of the article says:
The Japanese Government has not yet indicated what its attitude will be toward the Siberian situation, whether Japanese troops will be left in their present status in Siberia and Manchuria, or whether they will be withdrawn or greatly increased, and it in its decisions as to changes in the status quo in the Orient the Tokyo Government will act after con- vormations with the British Government, with which it has a treaty of alliance.
The study that has been made of the military situation, considering the world as a unit, has convinced military experts that it pivots very largely around the fact that Japan is in a greater position for military offensive and defensive ope rations at the present moment than ever before in history. The outstanding fact is declared to be that Japan is the only great power with a large national army that can be quickly mobilized and thrown into war anywhere at will. Before the outbreak of the world war in 1914, there were other nations that could use their armics at will, notably Germany and Austria, but they cannot longer do sa. Japan is the single remaining great power that is not hedged around by the check against using the military forces without express approval of legislative bodies.
Military experts have also discovered that a second-important cloment of power is possessed by Japan thror h the ac quisition of the Pacific Isl ads north of the Equator.
