proved a cablegram sent by its of
ficers to John 8. Hord. the chamber's
representative at WashlnKton, advis
ing against further Investment of
American capital In the Philippines

of the islands is definitely settled. The
cablegram sent to Hord follows:
"Give publicity to the fact that
farther American Investment In the
Philippines Is unadvlsable until the
political status of the islands is fixed
s a territory of the United States."
This message brought a cabled pro
test from the Swlft-Parnee company
of New York, owners of the Manila
street railway, deprecating "authori
sation of propaganda in the United
States against American Investment
of capital in the Philippines."
The reply of the American Chamber
of Commerce to this cablegram was
another, dispatched today to its
Washington representative, as fol
lows: "Political conditions In the Philip
pines and Individual and government
al antagonism to American invest
ments after being made Justify propa
ganda of non-Investment of American
capital until the permanent political
status of a territorial government ti
obtained. Business protection is pos
sible only In the large business cen
ters. Manila. Cebu, Hollo. Zamboanga.
"The provinces no longer are usablt
for American Investment or businesj
operation owing to lack of protection
from political antagonism to Ameri
can interests generated during the
Harrison administration, which terri
torial government would eradicate.
The American community is fighting
for fixed territorial status and asks
support of a non-Investment policy
vntll the change can be effected."

Minister Contradicts Statement
Reflecting on Conference
at Washington.
PEKIN, Oct. 15. (By the .Asso
ciated Press.) In referring to state
ments in local newspapers that the
Washington conference merely would
reach an agreement for the depreda
tion of China, Dr. Jacob G. Schurman,
American minister, in an address be
fore the American chamber of com
merce at Tien Tsln yesterday de
clared he would venture to assert
this prediction would be contra
dicted. Judging from what he knew
regarding the conference's history
and purpose, he said, he could not
conceive of any statement containing
more misrepresentation.
"A strong, efficient Chinese gov
ernment being the key to the whole
far eastern situation,' said the min
uter, "the powers should lend the
Chinese people whatever help they
desire In the establishment of such
a government.
"The American government will
never be a party to a 'grab game' in
China. The world's conscience today
tells nations and governments 'to
seek peace and insure it,' and the
first condition for insuring the
orient's peace Is respect for China's
political, territorial, administrative
and economic sovereignty. It is Amer
ica's honor to be a leader in this high
undertaking."
Dr. Schurman spoke of the success
co-operation by Chinese and Amer
ican private enterprises has brought
to the commercial and industrial de
velopment of China, and emphasized
the necessity of further Increasing
such enterprises.

leadlhat FAWN1E HURST
Says AJbout It :
An Unsolicited Tribute From the Author of "HUMORESQUE," "STAR
DUST," Etc
I came away so thrilled and moved by THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF
THE APOCALYPSE that I had the same feeling I experienced the first
and only time I saw Sarah Bernhardt. I didn't want to 0 home, but
to walk miles and miles under the spell of what I had seen. I may
seem a bit superlative in my appreciation of this film, but to me it
amounts to a climax in the history of the screen. Last night marked a
birthday: The eighth muse had come of age. Mr. Ingram, Miss Mathis,
Mr. Ibanez, everyone in fact connected with the masterpiece is to be
congratulated to weave that enormous story into a tapestry the size of
motion picture screen, and at the same time to keep its inegrity of form,
purpose and beauty is artistry raised to the nth power.
I'm a rather querulous picture goer, not half satisfied with conditions,
but seeing the "Four Horsemen" has renewed my faith in the enormous
potentialities of the screen. Sincerely yours,
(Signed) FANNIE HURST.
