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.”
