Ingly in all the measures this con
ference may adopt i to insure the
territorial integrity; of China and
to furnish her with means to
overcome her difficulties. She i;
convinced that the support of the i
action of the government Is the
necessary condition of all pro
gress and of the fruitful applica
tion of suclS rules is this confer
ence might lay ! down in accord
with the government of tha Chin
ese republic.
Belgium For Open Door
"Belgium will unreservedly fa
vor the policy of the open door.
She desires to see assured to the
industry and commerce of all the
nations the possibility of sharing
on a footing of complete and gen
uine equality the development of
the resources of China to the
greatest benefit of the Chinese
people and of all humanity.
"She has heafd with satisfac
tion the station of the represen
tatives of the Chinese republic
that that country is ready to ap
ply the policy of commercial Iio
erty in all parts: of itr-territory.
This commercial liberty will not
produce its full effect unless na
tionals ot the powers obtains the
rights and privileges whieb are
a necessary condition to'tle full
development of economic inter
ests. Tuty Increase Acceptable
"Belgium,, In accord with the
powers concerned, is ready to con
sent to a fair increase in the cus
toms duties.
"She will align herself willing
ly on the side of the countries dis
posed to accept the gradual aban
danment of their rights of Juris
diction as soon i as the Chinese
government shall have completed
the work that it has undertaken
and shall be in position to give
assurance Of the many guaran
tees that the proper administra
tion of Justice- demands," ;
Balfour Adds little
, ,t Mr, BalfpaiXtatet: v '
unnecessary to add one word to
what has been said by colleagues
in regard to the question of a
general erder bieirhad" Jeen
raised. His retsoi ofi saying
this wasthat Vhe 3iaf 3iothUig
to add: to the frequent
declarations of the government
had the honor to represent on all
these questions; for example, the
"open door" in China, the integ
rity of China and the desirability
of leaving China to work out its
own salvation and to maintain
control over its own affairs, and
of substituting when circumstan
ces warranted, normal processes
of law for extra-territoriality. All
these principles have been formu
lated over , and over again tn ex
plicit terms by the government
which he represented.
Italy Considers
Senator Schanzer's statement:
"I have the honor to state fn
the name of the Italian delegetion
that we fully subscribe to the no
ble sentiments expressed by the
orators who have Preceded me
The Italian delegation is ready to
examine, together with the other
delegations, with ; the greatest
care and in a spirit ofisincere sym
pathy, questions 'relating .to Chi
na. It will give-Its support to the
solutions that shall appear to be
best suited to assure the free de
velopment of China and guarantee
an equality in footing of the dif
fereht 'nations In their efforts to
promote the progress of China
and of commerce with that coun
try."

sympathy that France feels for

is disposed to consider in the most !
favorable light the Chinese claiavs
in their entirety. But. is: odrer to
reach a .practical result.- it,. will
be necessary to make a thorough
examination of each claim.
Holland China's Friend
Jonkheer Van Karnebeek, rep
resenting The Netherlands, re
marked that, in the present phase
of the discussion, there is not
much for him to say of a general !
character and at the same time of
material importance. He wished.
however, to say, as the rerpresena
tative of one of China's neighbors,
that The Netherlands delegation
will be happy to consider the prin
ciples which China has laid down
and the problems from the-stand-point
of the world's general wel
fare and to examine them in a
epirit of sympathy and friendship
toward China.
Holland, he said, has old friends
along the shores of the Pacific;
China knows that it is one of
them. If China avails herself of
the opportunity now afforded by
this conference to assert her
rights, to declare her position and
define he rwishes, she may count
on Holland's . good will and Its
willingness to aid her in the reali
zation of legitimate aspirations
and in her endeavors toward a
consolidation and stabilization of
her domestic affairs which are
connected with the problems af
fecting the Pacific.
Sze Appreciative
Viscount D'Alte said that the
Portuguese delegation saw with
pleasure that the delegates of
other nations represented at the
conference had expressed nearly
identical views to the desirability,
in the interests of all, of a pros
perous and united China. He
gladly associated himself with his
colleagues in the expression of
this desore.
Mr. Sze expressed on behalf of
the Chinese delegation his sincere
appreciation 0f . the united sym
pathy and friendship of the dele
gations for China and her propo
sals. Of course many proposals
will be considered jn connection
with their applications. He would
desire' to reserve to the Chinese
delegation the right of discussing
tnem in detail then. But he was
sure that the friendly sentiments,
as expressed, and the general spir
it ot accord inereoy prersented
would be greatly conducive to the
success of this -conference. After
a general discussion the meeting
adjourned until Monday at 4 p.m.

'Guests Number Fifteen
The home now has 15 guests,
with three niore arranged for to
come in the near future. Tils
will tax its housing capacity'fo
the limit. Indeed, the home has
been so far short of room to care
for all of the casestblf rigjif

building has been arranged kit,
to be built during 1922 at SHi
teenth and Center streets. Tjbte
new building is to cost J40.0J0,
and subscriptions have already
been secured to partly cover tgiis
amount. The great need of stfch
a home has impelled many liberal
minded donors to subscribe fxr
the fund to provide the larger
and better fitted establishment.
Work is to be begun early in the
spring, so that the home will tbe
ready for occupancy during fro
summer.
The Old People's Home Is only
partly a charity; it has some
revenues of its own to defray Its
running expenses. A nominal
admission charge 1s asked. This
admission fee is variable, depend
ing somewhat upon the age and
the ability to pay on 'the part" of
tbe applicant. The board of con
trol passes upon the matter of
admission. The number of ap(
plicants is always painfully in ex
cess of -the accommodations, for
it is a delightful place for the
aged and infirm to pass, their de
clining years; any many ask for
accommodations there who are
amply able to pay their way. - .
-Spirit Is Charitable.
However, the personal need- is
paramount to the question of fin
anc'al ability. Many a patient
has been received who had only
he merest pittance to pay, while
others who wished to come tor
convenience, having money to Buy
accommodations elsewhere, have
been passed by because their
needs were not so great. It is
run in the truest spirit of charity,
and the trust of its board of di
rectors in the great heart of the
outside humanity that always lias
supported the home, has been well
placed for . the public goes ; on
with Its good jdfts to make the
home a refuge for those who can
not pay as well as for those who
can.

denominational in its charitable
services. Seven church denom
inations are represented there at
the present time, out of 15
guests. The home especially
serves the district tributary to
Salem. Organizations in Silver
ton,' Forest Grove, Springfield,
and many other Willamette val
ley towns are assisting in its sup
port at the present time.
Matron Has Ability
Mrs. E. D. Proctor, the admir
able matron of the home, has been
in charge for three years. It i3 a
privilege for these elderly peopie
who have in almost every case
had delightful homes of their
own, to be looked after by such
a canable. understanding suDerin-
tendent. ueh of the success ofi
the home as an institution Is due
to Mrs, Proctor's careful manage
ment, financially as well as soci
ally. The institution spends ap
proximately $6500 a year in ca3h
for its maintenance, so . it is a
real contribution to the civic wel
fare as a financial institution.
The guests themselves are the
most interesting part of the
home. They represent some of
the eublimest trafts of humanity.
One woman has spent more than
40 years iii her chair, unable to
use either feet or hands; yet so
cheerful and such an inspiration
that the place would seem dark
and gloomy if she were to leave.
Another has been blind for many
years; another Has been confined
to her chair for seven years;
others have various afflictions
that to some would seem unbear
able. Household Cheerful
And yet it is a cheerful house
hold. Evjery week visitors go
there to sing, to speak, to offer
various forms of entertainment.
Such an -appreciative audience
never gathered for grand opera or
church or concert or lecture out
side! The shining eyes and the
clasped hands and the little mur
murs of delight are an inspira
tion to the speaker or singer who
Is privileged to appear before
them. Appreciation? Such a les
son of understanding, appreciation
as they can teach!
. Both men and women are re
ceived in the home, though there
are more women than men. The
personal needs are the prime con
sideration for a vote for admis
sion. Any aged person who is in
need is a potential candidate for
admission, and the dollar mark is
not the insignia or password. It
is as true an unselfish charity as
the Gospel itself.
New Home to be Modern
Forty guests have beenreceived
and entertained in the home since
it was established 12 years ago.
Most of them stay for a consid
erable length of time. One of the
present guests has been there
since the home started; another
for seven years; another for six,
and so on. It is a home where
they can count on ending their
days in peace and comfort.
The new home is to be a mod
en, attractive building, especi
ally fitted for the comfort of the
a&ed and infirm. It will care for
guests, on the first two floors;
10 more can be accommodaten in
the third floor, when it is neces
sary or possible to finish this ad
ditional room. The building is
to cost close to 40,000. Plans
are already approved, drawn by
Architect F. A. Legge of Salem.

China Ailment Tiinowd

statement at today's meeting. In
the absencetof Ambassador Shide

ese spokesman, China s troubles
were attributed largely to internal
causes with which it was declared
the Toklo .government had no de
stfe fo interfere. "Emphasis was
laid on the dependence of Japan
on a supply of raw materials from
China, but Bar on Kato insisted
that the rule of equal opportun
Ity for everyone mast be pre
served.
The statement, generally con
sldered as merely a reiteration of
tha nrfnWnlna fn whirh Tanon

among delegates, because of tha

fine claim of his ! brother. Todd

from both Byron: and Todd's

Jn refutation - of ; Todd's alleged
assurance o investors, the gov
ernment produced 4 records from

Judgmemnt8 against Byron which
have never been paid; the gov
ernment showed . i by the most
prominent federal figures in the
Hyde-Benson prosecutions that
Byron never helped the govern
ment one iota and that, -in fact
Byron's reputation with the gen
eral land office was anything but
good for the past four years, be
cause of his repeated dilligence in
selling location contracts to peo
ple throughout the northwest.
Todd claims, through his attor-'
ney, that he never received a
penny of anybody's money for the
entire transaction; for his untir
ing diligence in inducing people to
"get in" on the great scheme;
that he did it all for Byron out of
pure friendship.
Quite a few Salem people have
testified otherwise, however, tle
claring from the stand that Todd
told them he was getting $100
for each contract sold.
After the visit of a govern
ment agent to Salem. Todd care
fully looked up these people, the
testimony showed, and tactfully
reminded them that he "did not

the buying was liberal and spir
