DAYS OF JOY AT THE TARBORO -CHAUTAUQUA JUNE -2nd TO 8th O AiUL WILL ATTEMPT TO CHRISTIAN EVERY NATION OF WORLD Presbyterian Foreign ' Mission Board Makes Annual Report To General Assembly. ; v REPORT DEALS ON THE RECENT KOREA REVOLT Philadelphia, May 21. American missionaries in Korea, despite hard, ships and dangers incident to recon struction following the quelling by the Japanese of the recent Uprising, are planning to Christianize every district in the country," according to the annual report of the Presbyte rian Board of Foreign Missions to the Presbyterian General Assembly, made public here today." " Referring to the revolt, the report says: "The result proved anew that Japan will not voluntarily grant Ko. reari independence: that the Kore ans 'cannot secure it by force, and that other governments, having lone ago recognized Japanese annexation of the peninsula, will not interfere. Costly tod was the movement to the Japanese, for it reinforced their crit ics, disheartened their friends, alien ated -the sympathy of allied nations and brought upon the ruthless mili-' tarists the opprobrious name of 'the Huns of, the Orient'." - Regarding the attitude of Ameri can missionaries toward the Kore ans' revolt against, the Japanese, the report quotes Bishop Herbert Welch of the' Methodist Episcopal church of Korea as"saying:,"Itis no evidence of unfriendliness to tad Japanese peo ple that the '-missionaries became alienated .In sympathy from the Jap anese government," but t only a testi mony to the deep' humanity of their feelings and to an indignation against wrong doing which was worthy of all praise"." ' . - , "There- is a general disposition' to - give the new administration In Ko rea a fair chance, to remedy the un doubted abuses that exist," continues the report. "Americans," it says, "should distinguish between the civil and military parties among the Jap anese. The former is composed of enlightened and progressive men who if eel as we do about the outrages that Jiave been committed in Korea. The "latter includes a large number of men who are thoroughly Prussian in their temper and conduct. "Americans should bear in mind that there is a considerable element among the Japanese themselves who are greatly disturbed by the . stern and iron-handed policy of the-military party in dealing with the Kore ans and who favor a wise and hu mane policy in dealing with them. It would be not only unwise but unjust td make indiscriminate condemnation of the whole Japanese nation.". Declaring that "China is in a state of chaos," the board says '"it has been gratifying to read the reassur ing statements of several eminent Japanese, as to the intentions of their government," adding, however, that "something more than words, how ever sincere, is required to remove (misgiving and distrust." Greed and altruism, democracy and militarism, it says, are struggling for. the mas tery. During the past year, the re port says, Chinese churches connect ed with the Presbyterian, Congrega tional, United Brethren and London Missions have formed one organic Christian body. "" All other evangeli cal denominations have been invited to join. Presbyterian foreign missionaries pnereased in 1919 from 1,364 to 1,- l28, and the native workers from 6,80(5 tcr 6,856. In order to meet the high cost of living, which in some iflelds like Japan, has increased ayjr 300 per cent, the living allowances If or the Presbyterian missionaries have been increased from the former standard of $1,250 a year to $1,500. New methods of dealing with sedi- ioq- is declared to have made mission ctivities in India more difficult, "all on-British subjects desiring to en gage in philanthropic, educational, medical or missionary work being re quired to obtain a license." This as modified for the missionaries rovided they declared due obedience nd respect to the government and arefully abstained from political af fair. Reinforcements are called for f'to check the growing power of Mo hammedanism," in West Africa. ft ANOTHER HAT IN RING OF POLITICS H, P. Foxhall Has Few Things; . yTo Say For O. Max ..

Max Gardner or governor. It is needless for me- or anyone else to publish Mr, Gard ner's record; it is sufflcientto say that no one can but admit that in" both political and private life his record is "clean; what more can te said; - He comes before the oe;de on the Democratic platform, free from any pledges or promises t any class or interest. Mr. J. L. Hearne advisee me tv.at several days ago in the store of R. D. Davis - in Farmville, there were pine merchants "and farmers - discussing politics; of these nine men seven "of them were . against Gardner before the controversy arose in connection with his refusal to answer the ques tionnaire submitted him by the Am erican . Federation of Labor; these seven men 'declared that they would now cast.their vote for the man vho had the courage and manhood to re fuse to be bound by any pledge to any; faction or interest even though he must have realized that his re fusal wduld antagonize a certain ele ment in the state; Reports all over the state show that Mr. Gardner's stand on this matter has gained him two votes for every on6 it may have lost him. We are all obliged to ad mire and respect a real man, and he has shown that he is Well worthy to be classed as such. ' Mr. Gardner is not antagonistic to labor or to any pther interest, but his .only pledge' to use his own words is "A full and fair hearing to all interests, capital, labor and the pub lic, and a square deal for all." Does this suit you? : i Yours truly, H. P. FOXHALL. OLYMPIC RIFLE TEAM TRYOUTS Candidates for VI S. Shield to Qualify at Quantico, Va., Week of May 24.
