The situation at Shantung province,
where the Japanese have taken over
the German possessions in accordance
with the terms of the peace treaty, is
growing daily more tense, according to
Kenneth McAfee of Parkville, Mo., who
has just completed a four years' trip
round the world, the last year of
"which was spent in China and Corea.
Mr. McAfee went to Egypt in 1915 as
a teacher in an American mission col
lege. In India he entered the army
T. M. C. A. work with the British, and
"Was stationed in Bombay, the British j
base for the Mesopotamia and Kast
.African campaigns. He was in Port !
Said when Turkish aviators dropped
several bombs in the city, and escaped
on a life raft from a British mail boat
which struck a. mine six hours out of i
Bombay In the Indian ocean and sank
in 20 minutes.
Going to Tslng-Tao, the principal
city and port of Shantung province, he
taught in another mission college there
from the time of the signing of the
armistice until the end of the school
year, returning to the Cnited States via
Corea and Japan. He is visiting for a
few days in this city with his brother,
Ralph C McAfee, executive secretary
of the Portland church federation, be
fore returning to the middle west to
continue his studies.
TVatlven Reported Bitter.
When asked the sentiment of the na
tive Shantung population in regard to
the Japanese occupation, Mr. McAfee
replied, "Bitter extremely bitter."
"The latest development there," he
Raid, "which shows the situation clear
ly, is the anti-Japanese boycott which
has gone into effect all over China. The
principal possession which the Jap
anese have taken over from the Ger
mans is the railroad connecting the city
of Tsing-Tao with the main-line rail
road from Peking to Shanghai. T rode
all day on this railroad and passed one
freight train. The car doors were open
and I could see that nearly all of the
freight cars were empty. The Chinese
simply will not use the railroad. Jap
anese products of all kinds are a drug
on the market because no one will buy
them, and the storekeepers refuse to
handle them. Japanese money Is val
ueless in the stores.
"Early last spring a day was set aside
In all the principal cities in China for
the burning of Japanese goods. In
Hang Chow, a city of 500,000 popula
tion near Shanghai, I saw the principal
street piled high with straw hats, um
brellas, bicycles and all manner ot' Jap
anese goods. The populace held a pub
lic celebration while flames destroyed
the pile.
Jnpanfie Gcndnrme Roll.
"One of the most galling .things to
the Chinese is the stationing of Jap
anese gendarmes all over Shantung,
the birthplace of Copfucius. "Wherever
you go in the province you are halted
while a representative of Japan looks
over your passport to see who your
grandparents were and why you are in
Shantung.
"Ever since China entered the war
there have been two governments in
the country, one at I 'eking and the
other at Canton, with constant civil
etrife going on between them. The Jap
anese are popularly believed to be fi
nancing both governments. A confer
ence was held in Shanghai for the pur
pose of reconciling the differences of I
the two parties, but an outside in- !
f luence, presumably Japanese, caused
the conference to break up before it
could accomplish any good.
"The boycott against Japanese goods
and concessions was started by the
Chinese student class in Shantung,
which declared the school year over a
month ahead of time and went in small
groups to every part of China as apos
tles of the boycott. The Japanese blame
the boycott on the American mission
aries, and the feeling between the Jap
anese and the Americans, who form the
principal part of Shantung's foreign
colony, is none too friendly.
"I believe I am safe in saying that
every American in China realizes the
treatment China is receiving at the
hands of Japan, and as a result of this
realization would like to see war de
clared between the United States and
Japan."
Mr. McAfee was in Corea just after
the riots in which thousands of Corea ns
were killed or brutally beaten by the
Japanese military police.
"C o r e a n boys," he said, "were
stripped naked, bound to the floor with
their bare backs exposed, and beaten
with bamboo flails until the . bones
showed through the flesh. Hundreds of
them died as the result of these beat
ings. I talked with two boys who
had been in the hospital for two months
since they were beaten, and they could
still lie in only one position. 1 met a
man with his arm in a sling who was a
victim of the Japanese practice of fir
ing into crowds wherever they began to
gather. The brutality, of the Japanese
in Corea is unquestionable.
"The Japanese military governor in
charge of Corea has been recalled, how
ever, and there is some hope of im
provement in the appointment of a civil
governor. The principal Japanese pa
pers now are advocating that a civil
governor be placed in control of Corea."
