War was regarded as most unlikely. The same evening a missionary talked to more I.a Grande people and told also of China today, expressing the opinion that war between that country and America was most likely within the next fifty years. An entirely different picture of China was painted and not a pleasant one to contemplate in many aspects. Thus we have two views, both presented l.y men of 'long residence in the Orient and years of experience with the Chinese. Kither one might be right; neither of the pre dictions made is impossible. We are inclined, however, to tho belief that war with China is most unlikely. Jloth China and America would have too much to lose; both nations are controlled by men of too much vision and education to per mit the foimulalion of a policy that would lead to war. Our friendship with China will grow, not diminish. We have no selfish motives other than legitimate international trade.
