CARDINAL, MERCIER'S STORY
including: his correspondence
with the German authorities in
Belgium during: the war, 1914
to 1918, edited by Professor
Fernand Mayence of bouvain
University and translated by -the
Benedictine Monks of St.
Augustine's, Ramsgate, England.
Military Spirit Among Nipponese
Likened to That in Germany
Before World War.
Tresent blind hatred of. Japan by
the United States is not furthering a
desirable relationship between the
two countries as an understanding
friendship might do. according to
Bishop H. Roots of Hankow, China,
and Kpiacopal biship to the Chinese
diocese.
Bishop Roots Is a visitor at the
home of Bishop W. T. Sumner while
en route to China after attending the
tri-annual convention of the Episco
pal church held last autumn in the
east. He has been stationed in China
for the last 24 years, during which
time his work has continued in the
face of brigands, panics, epidemics
and wars. He does not expect to re
turn to the United States until the
next tri-annual convention of his
church, which will be held in Port
land in 1922. He plans to sail from
Vancouver Saturday.
Bishop Roots will speak this morn
ing at 11 o'clock to the Portland
clergy, and at 7:30 P. M. to the Good
Samaritan staff.
Japs' Invasion Scooted
"Japan seems to be under the same
Influence of militarism that Prussia
was prior to the war." said Dr, Roots
yesterday. "The war has not served
to lessen this spirit as it has in other
countries involved with Germany, for
the Japanese seem to think they will
be able to profii by the mistakes
Germany made and. when their time
comes, be successful. Of course I
don't think there is any possibility
in the near future of the Japanese
coming over here and wiping us out.
The Japanese have too much sense fo'r
that. .
Americas hatred of Japan is not
helping the situation. In acknowl
edging fear of the yellow race it is
but improving Japan's position. In
keeping orientals out of America by
lormlng too stringent laws, it is main
tatning a spirit of animosity which is
interfering not only with trade, which
is not inconsiderable, but also with tha
diplomatic relations. 1 do not believe
steps should be taken in the United
States to keep the yellow race from
within its portals, but I regret ex
ceedingly the action, which I con
sider most tactless, taken by the Ore
gon legislature the day before yes
ternay. fauch steps should be fatten
in a friendly manner. A commispion
should be appointed to confer with
the Japanese and the Chinese. This
commission should adjust the matter
and should also bring about more
friendly relations between the two
countries.
Military Spirit Noted.
"The story of the Shantung provi
Ion is a long one with three distinct
sides. The Chinese take the view
that they have been robbed by an
enemy. The loot taken from them
was detained by a policeman, who in
stead of rightfully returning it h
kept it. China wants Shantung back.
cot only in the .political sense in
which Japan promises it, but also in
the economic sense. Shantung is 'par
ticularly dear to the hearts of China
because it is the holy land where
Confuscius, their most beloved and
influential leader, was born, taught
and died.
"Japan views the matter as a result
of a successful war. Japan says,
"Look, England got Mesopotamia out
of the big war; France got Alsace
Lorraine, and Italy got a large part
of Austria surely I should get Shan
tung. Japan's view is, of course, in-
fluenced by the military spirit which
today prevails there. She promises
to give China its political freedom
and asks the world to trust her.
Whether she will ever give back
China her economic rights is a ques
tion, because there is a large mer
chant class in Japan which recog
nizes the assets and resources of the
peninsula.
"Then there is a third angle to the
cnantung question, and that is our
side. All my sympathies are with
China, but I believe the United States
can only help by furthering the spirit
of true friendship between herself and
China and Japan and in aiding the
friendship between the two oriental
races, themselves. Then may justice
to all be administered, for between
friends all things are possible."
LEWIS STOCKMEN ELECT
Annual Meeting of Pure Breeders'
Club Held in Chehalis.
CHEHALIS, Wash., Jan. 18. (Spe
eial.) The annual meeting of the
Lewis County Pure Breeders' club
was held here yesterday at the Hotel
St. Helens. A number of talks were
given by breeders and owners of
pure-bred stock. E. A. Donaldson
who is secretary of the recently or
ganized Lewis County Holstein-Frie
elan club, announced that already
more than 200 pure-bred Holstein
cattle had been listed.
Colonel George Gue, who recently
announced his change to Chehalis
from Takima, told of the success of
men in Washington and Oregon who
had engaged in the pure-bred stock
business. A plan for doing collective
advertising was tentatively agreed
upon, and N. B. Coffman, N. C. Sears,
Grant Gleason, Harry Hamilton, O.
O. Phelps and Clayton Truesdell were
named a committee with power to
act.
Officers were chosen for 1920 as
follows: X. C. Sears. Winlock, presi
dent; Harry Hamilton, Chehalis. vice
president; George R. Walker, Che
balis, secretary.
Explanatory Comment by Professor
Fernand Mayence.
Just why the governor-general, in the
letter given below, should consider that
Mercier'a appeal to the kaiser concerning
the deportations deprived the cardinal of
any further right to protest about In
justices is not clear. Nor is it plain why
Von Bissing should so curtly refuse as
sistance to the prelate unless the governor
general was "touchy" and offended because
the emperor had been directly invoked.
What is evident, however, is the offense
taken at the publication of another pas
toral letter. The tone of this exhortation,
"Courage, my brethren." is exalting, fear
less and sincers, as was the character of
all the previous epistles to the diocese.
The following are some extracts from
this vibrant document:
"Is it, indeed, necessary to preach cour
age to you ?
"And when I say you I am thinking, of
course, directly of the assiduous compan
ions of our misfortune, but my thoughts
also go beyond the occupied provinces, to
our refugees, our prisoners, our deported.
our soldiers.
'Brothers of our army of Liege, of
Hselen, Antwerp, of the Yser, of Ypres, of
the Cameroon and of Kast Africa, it la
you who are out first instruments of en
ergy. On August 2, 1914. from the heart
of all the families of our national aris
tocracy, you surged forth, with magnifi
cent dash, attesting that nobility in Bel
gium has kept its traditional significance
the bourgeois classes, solid bulwarks or
the nation, arose by your side; a modest
employe in our city of Malines has six sons
t the front the people, too, nave tur-
nlshed therl contingents of enlisted volun
teers, so much the more deserving since
their departure left Its gap of emptiness
and anguish in the fireside; military al
moners and stretcher bearers, who, oi tneir
own volition, offered and expended their
devotion: the government, which for two
years and six months has been engaged in
the task with a valor .which nothing can
tame; our vowa makea cortege for these
heroes: all from a guard of honor, faith
ful and proud, for the magnificent sover
eign, who, from the sandbank to which
his kingdom is reduced, gives to .Belgium
and to the world the accomplished example
of endurance and of faith in the future.
Belgian people would serve 'o educate
the mind of generations to come."
In the second section the cardinal
dwelt on the grandeur of the Chris
tian spirit. "If na iral i.ioral virtues
be worthy of esteem, charity alone,
which Christ infi ses into the soul,
gives virtue its full significance and
strictly speaking merits eternal re
ward.' The pastoral ended with an exhor
tation to confidence and acts of ador
ation and love of God and of submis- j
sion to his holy will.
Baron von Bissing, considering that
the cardinal had again issued a polit- j
leal manifesto, wrote a strong protest.
The arJinal hastened to Justify his
conduct by asserting that his duty
was to encourage, lead and support
his beloved people struggling in the
midst of the most cruel sufferings.
He wrote in part as follows:
Be so good, excellency, as to look
the facts in the face. Just as our
holy father, Benedict 3CV, in his con
sistorial address of December 4, 1916,
proclaimed so nobly before the church
and before the world, considerable
numbers of inoffensive citizens are
dragged from their mothers, their
wives and their weeping children and
led off into captivity far from their
native land. We have seen them go
dejected in mind, though sound in
body, and we have seen them come
back wizened, emaciated, a prey to
tuberculosis in the proportion of six
to ten, thus creating a dire menace
for generations to come.
Every family is in dread. Tales of
sorrow come to us from every side
and how can we in face of this re
main unmoved witnesses of our be
loved people's anguish? No. excel
lency, a power which only took count
of exterior discipline might make this
claim. A man with a heart would not
uphold it.

Expulsion of Socialists by the New
York Legislature Held Chal
lenge to Direct Action.
(Copyright by the New York World. Pub
lished by Arrangement.)
LONDON". Jan. 18. (Special Cable.)
George Bernard Shaw still holds the
belief that Americans are barbarians.
He is fortified in this belief by the
action of the New Tork legislature
in expelling the five socialists. He
gave the following statement regard
ing It to The World and Oregonian
correspondent:
"I suppose it must be regarded as
challenge to direct action and as
the deliberate preliminary to a war
of political creeds which will be far
more frightful than the wars of re
ligion in the seventeenth century.
It is high time for the Mayflower
to fit out for sea again.
"Americans used to laugh at me for
refusing to visit their country with
out a safe conduct. They will hardly
deny now that I had good reason.
"Is President Wilson still at large?
He is barely safer than was Louis
XVI. I, as an avowed and active so
cialist of over 35 years' standing,
should have no chance at all.
'But there is nothing really sur
prising in the incident- Beneath their
mask of civilization the American
states have always remained prim
itive communities, and primitive com
munities naively persecute opinion as
matter of course.
"My old label, A Nation of Villag
ers, still holds good.
When is the Bartholdi statue to be
pulled down?"

CHAPTER XXXIV.
AN ORDER of the governor-general
dated July 8, 1916, ordered the
compulsory declaration of all exist-
ng stocks of copper, tin, nickel.
bronze or gun-metal in occupied ter
ritory.
By a new order of December 30
all household articles made of tin.
copper, etc., were seized and had to
be made over; the date of delivery
being fixed later on for each district.
Anyone contravening the order was
liable to penalties not exceeding five
years' imprisonment and 20,000 marks
fine.
As soon us these orders came into
force the cardinal wrote Baron von
Bissing as follows:
Archbishop's House, M a 1 i n e s.
February 14. 1917. To His Excellency
Baron von Bissing, Governor-General,
Brussels: Sir The official gazette of
laws and orders of July 8,' 1916, an
nounces that the military authorities
are thinking of commandeering all ex
isting copper, tin and nickel in oc
cupied territory. We could not bring
ourselves to believe that the occu
pying power would ever resort to
such measures; but now an order of
December 30 confirms that of July 8
and we learn that these regulations
are now being enforced.
"From the moral and religious point
of view adopted by me by reason of
my duty as bishop I respectfully make
your eminence a dual request:
'First. That you will not regard
as guilty those who in their con
science believe that they cannot
actively lend a hand in carrying off
the commandeered metals.
Second. That you would kindly
take into account that, according to
canon law, the goods of religious
communities, seminaries. Episcopal
colleges, as well as those of the
fabriques," are ecclesiastical prop
erty and therefore cannot be alien
ated without the sovereign pontiff's
sanction.
To be fair, I must inform your ex
cellency that I can neither co-operate
myself nor allow those under me to
co-operate in the alienation of these
goods.
xteceive, sir, the assurance of my
sincere esteem.
D. J. CARDINAL MERCIER..

Archbishop of Malines.
CHAPTER XXXV.
Political Department of the Govern
ment General,
Brussels, Feb. 9. 1917.
To His Eminence Cardinal Mercier.
Archbishop of Malines.
Tour eminence is not unaware that
at the present moment a great dearth
of coal is making itself felt. As the
weather continues to be bitterly cold,
it is needful for this fuel to be every
where used with the greatest econ
omy, so the government has taken
steps to limit the consumption of
coal. As regards fuel economy, those
churches which are heated must fall
into line with the rest. The gov
ernor-general requests me to draw
your attention to this matter and
leaves it to you to judge what steps
you think ought to be taken so that
the coal restrictions imposed udod
everybody in the public interest may
be complied with.
Please receive the assurance of mv
sincere esteem. (Signed)
LANCKEN.
The coal shortage was due solely to
the German requisitions, for, as the
cardinal showed in his letter 'Of
November 2 to Baron von Bissing, re
produced later on, the war-time out
put of the Belgian mines, had it been
left at the disposal of the people,
would have admitted of the distribu
tion of approximately three tons of
coal a year to each of the population.
But the greater part of the 'output
was commandeered by the German
government, which. In order to secure
a supply oi gold, sold it to neutral
countries at a handsome profit. Mean
wnue me xseigian people for the
common gooa, eaia saron von der
Lancken had to deprive themselves
oi luei during the most intense cold
Among tne steps mentioned by the
chief of the political department in his
letter to the cardinal, we must note
the closing of all educational estab
lishments through lack of heating
ifuwer.

churches oi the diocese on Sunday,

It was divided Into two sections.
In the first the cardinal dilated upon
the moral greatness of the nation; he
did homage to the valor of the army
and the prisoners, the patience of the
refugees, the firmness of the govern
ment and the undaunted courage of
the king. "If," said he, "there were

Capital.
Money, to be effective in this
modern day, must be assembled
in large quantities. a trust
company ot investment banking
institution is to give adequate
service it must have large finan
cial resources. These resources
must, furthermore, be in actual
cash. Good credit or an ability
to borrow extensively at a bank
will not suffice for any length of
time. The company must have
paid up capital of its own.
Here we find one explanation
of the dominating position held
by the Lumbermens Trust Com
pany. It has six hundred thou-
m-JJmM w. '.ui, miii-'j ,nJ Kms and has shown bv
years of successful experience
j that it can distribute its purchases
llglf readily among investors.
Adequate capital enables a company to purchase bond issues months in
advance of their issuance a necessity under present competitive conditions.
By reason of its comprehensive organization and strong financial support, the
Lumbermens Trust Company is able to send expert buyers through the entire
West
It requires large amounts of capital to furnish our clients with these
investment bargains, diversified broadly as to locality, but it is an important
service. Besides, we buy in Canada and in New York, where many of the
foreign and industrial loans are underwritten, making frequent eastern trips
expedient.
Today bond issues of $400,000 are purchased as readily as $100,000
transactions were handled several years ago.
This is the day of the large trust company, endowed ivilh adequate capital
and 'safeguarded by painstaking slate supervision.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 18. (Special.)
Thousands of tons of cargo are being
stowed into the great army troopship
Mount Vernon, which is moored alongside
pier 39. The vessel's crew was kept busy
today stowing the cargo as fast as' army
trucks discharged the stores on the dock.
No visitors were permitted to board the
vessel, but hundreds of Sunday water
front visitors, attracted by the four red-whlte-and-blue-painted
stacka rising above
the docks, watched the loading. Two coal
barges were busy bunkering the vessel.
The Mount Vernon Is sailing under
sealed orders, but it is commonly reported
she will sail for Vladivostok. Captain
Harry Cunningham, who brought the ves
s4 from the Atlantic, has .been replaced
by Captain C. J. Bruguiere, well-known
San Francisco bar pilot, who has received
leave of absence from Captain Wallace of
the pilot association to take command of
the huge liner, which has been a sort of
a "mystery snip ever since she cam
irom the east coast.
The destroyer Howard, recently launched
from the Union plant of the Bethlehem
Shipbuilding corporation, went out on her
trial trip outside the heads today. She
is tne aecono. aestroyer to be sent over
