SHANTUNG AFFAIR IS HELD REPETITION OF ANNEXATIONS IN 1904 Prof. R. F. Scholz of U. Of W. History*Department Talks On World Problem The Shantung affair of the recent war was the exact counterpart of the taking of Port Arthur and the Liao Tung peninsula at the close of the Russo-Japanese war in 1904. Such is the opinion of Prof. R. F. ■ Scholz, professor of European his tory at the University of Washing ton, who delivered an address Fri day morning before Prof Walter C. Barnes’ class in Modern European History. Professor Scholz is a grad uate of the University of Wisconsin and from 1904 to 1907 was a Rhodes scholar at Oxford. He came to Eu gene to lecture before the Social Science club Thursday night. In 1904 Japan took Port Arthur and Liao Tung, which had hither to been taken by Russia from China. Not only did she annex the terri tory, Professor Scholz pointed out, the other nations. The treaty be but her act was endorsed by all of tween Russia and Japan, which was signed in the United States, under the influence of ex-president Roosevelt, gave to Japan a 99 year lease on the country which she had won as a result of the war. Japan took Shantung from Germany in the re cent war, but this time, instead of receiving the sanction of the rest of the world she was criticized uni versally for an act in principle ex actly like the one which she com mitted in 1904. Three Periods Described Professor Scholz traced the his tory of Japan from 1S7S until the present time, which he divided into three periods. He touched upon the history of other nations of the world as they affected Japan. The first period, he said, wap marked by the end of the expansion of the world powers by peaceful methods, and Japan, although she had suffered no encroachments as yet, feared the agressive advance of Russia into Si beria as a campaign to shut her off from her only possible outlet. Spurred on by this, Japan, in the second place, increased appropria tions for the support of her army and built up a westernized military system along the Prussian pattern. The Chino-Japanese war in 1895 left Japan not only the ally of one of the greatest powers in the world hut a potential nation and a world power herself. At about the same time Russia, which had been play ing big brother to China, started an advance into the country from t north. Prance and Germany both established themselves in China al so, the former in the southern part of the country. Monroe Doctrine Similar “How would the United States have felt if Germany, disregarding the Monroe Doctrine, had establish ed herself in Brazil?” Professor Scholz asked. “The case was the same in this instance. As a result there came the Russo-Japanese war and Japan annexed Port Arthur,, which Russia had laid hands on. The result of the war left Japan just a little bit cocky, just as the United States' hud been after the Spanish American war1: “With the coming of the third period, from 1905 until 1914, Japan proceeded upon an imperialistic pro gram but ghe .is coming out of this state of economic imperialism and emerging into a larger democracy.” LYLE McCROSKEY SUES WIFE FOR DIVORCE (Continued from page 1) and also due to the fact that Mrs. McCroskey has been out on other nights previous to this, as intimated , by her husband, McCroskey, thinks he has sufficient grounds for di vorce.
