Is Chinese Unity Ahead?
CHINESE DEFENDING SELVES WELL
.
Supporting the Carnival
Military Strength
Rtflects Harmony?
Most of us have been surprised at
the manner in which the Chinese have
stubbornly fought off the Japanese at
Shanghai, engaging even in successful
counter attacks.
It is true enough that there has been
little reason up to this time to hold the
capabilities of the Chinese soldier in
very high regard. Japan mopped up
Manchuria with seeming ease, and most
of the news stories about the action up
there were confined to descriptions of
speedy retreats of the Chinese. In fact,
at a number of important points, such
as Chinchow, the Chinese departed be
fore their opponents arrived on the
cene, and the Japanese apparently ad
vanced slowly in order that the evacu
ation might be complete.
That didn't happen to be the order
of things when the Japanese landed at
Shanghai, and a bloody and protracted
battle has been under way there. It
has been reported that some of the
best troops of the Chinese army are at
the Shanghai front, and it is not hard
to believe.
Furthermore, it may be that the stub
born Chinese resistance is partly due
to closer political harmony in China,
resulting from the crisis into which the
Japanese program has plunged the
country. The warring forces of China,
it is indicated in reports, have been
unified, with the various political fac
tions getting together in support of the
military resistance.
Japan's enterprise may eventually
drive China into the unity without
which it can never be a nation in the
true sense of the word. Japan has in
dicated excuse for its actions in that
very lack of unity, alleging that be
cause of it China has not been able to
discharge the responsibilities of a na
tion. What next for Japan, if China
is driven into unity?
It is well to add that true Chinese
unity would be a tremendously good
thing. So long as chaos rules in that
land, immense in population, territor
ial size and resources, it is going to be
a disturbing factor for the rest of the
world.
A Little Blizzard
Virits Our Land
The wind blew over the dry snow in
the Klamath country Saturday moan
ing. The powdery substance of winter
was whipped into fantastic swirls, low
above the pavements, and in the fields
it was lifted into steam-like clouds.
Exposed places were blown bare as
the brisk breeze carried on its little
game. Lanes which had been cleared
by man were blown full again. Fields
of level snow were transformed into
gentle billows.
There was no practical significance
to these things. There was no economic
importance, such as has been attached
to the severity of the winter in general.
This transient little storm did not iso
late any travelers, lead to any trag
edies, or otherwise win for itself a place
on the front page of the metropolitan
1 newspapers. x
But it did mean something for those
who took time to think upon the won
der of it all, and to look upon its beau
ty. In our hurried manner of life, we
give too little heed to such things. We
do not often enough lift our eyes to
the majesty of Mt. Shasta, over there
to the southwest, nor contemplate the
wonders of the hills or the sunset.
How much we could do to relieve the
drabness of life, if we but recognized
and took time to enjoy the beauty that
surrounds us.
Active Interest
1$ In Order
The community has committed Itself
to whole-hearted support of the Crater
Lake snow carnival at Fort Klamath
next week-end. and that is well. The
coming week should be one of general
preparation for and anticipation of a
great event.
Chamber of commerce directors were
told this week of the necessity for giv
ing the Fort Klamath event particularly
strong support, in view of the laudable
determination of the Crater Lake club
to keep its program on an amateur
basis. To do this, the Crater Lake club
has not joined an association of win
ter sports organizations, but has main
tained its independence, in the hope
that amateur interest in snow sports in
the Klamath country would not be
crowded out by outside professionalism.
For this reason, home support is es
sential to the success of the Crater
Lake ski tournament. City officials,
the chamber of commerce, and service
clubs have promised that support.
Whether the event is a real success,
depends on whether that shall be ac
tive interest, or the mere formality of
courteous vote.
Big Stories of
1931 Listed
As you cast your mind back over
1931, what are the events that stand
out? Well, you probably are saying,
the economic situation meant more to
me than anything else. A lot of things
happened, but that seems to stand out.
If you do think that, you agree with
leading executives of the world's two
greatest news gathering services, the
Associated Press and the United Press.
Mr. J. M. Kendrick, executive news
editor of the A. P., and Mr. Carl D.
Groat, news director of the U. P., put
the economic situation as first in their
lists of the ten biggest news stories of
1931. Mr. Joseph Conolly, president
of the International News Service, did
not mention it in his, but he did men
tion the Hoover debt moratorium, and
England going off the gold standard,
as related stories.
If you sometimes think of 1931 as a
dreary and uneventful year, let your
mind run over this list, which includes
all of the stories chosen by the three
news service executives, but does not
include duplications.
WoTld depression and related occurrence,
Manchuria, and related occurrence.
Hahatma Gandhi.
Knute Rockne's death.
Wlekeraham report on prohibition.
Fost-Catty around the world bop.
Edlson'a death.
Cnlbcrtaon-Lem bridge match.
Imprisonment of A. B. Fall.
Conviction of Al Capone.
Overthrow of the Spanish monarch.
Pop Plus' first radio broadcast
The Colorado -tllixard Is which children
froi to death.
Pepper Martin and the world series.
Disagreement between Vatican and Italy.
Death of Dwlgbt Morrow.
Professor Plcarde's stratosphere ascent of
SI, 000 feet.
What will be the biggest stories of
1932? Already the Sino-Japanese war
fare or whatever may come of it, is a
cinch for a place in that list.
Let's take a hopeful chance and nom
inate economic recovery as another.
In view of the rivalry between the
fire and police departments for the af
fections of a black cat, we take it that
not all dark felines are expected to
bring misfortune.
