of Women Voters Meeting Monday Affornoon
How Japan lit syatomatlcally ualng narcotics as a military
weapon lo debauch China, wax nno of Iho chief point brmiKht
out In Mn. K. A. Geary's tulk on "Japan" laiit Monday after
noon before the general meeting of t ho l.cnKiic of Women
Voters. For run i iy niontha Japun hits licen selling niircnllca,
opium, morphine and heroin, openly to China, notably In Man
eluikuo and Jiipiinesocontrollcd uiean. 1 tn effect ! to break
and weaken tlit) peoplu, und China li taking drnntlc atepi to
curb lt linn,
It la cntlniiilcd that 80,000
Inhubltunti in Nanking alono

Uivm women und children. In
. Munehukuo many boy and
girls mo becoming uddleU. In
perpetrutlnii ueh n monstros
ity, Japan well know what
she U riolnif; her own lawi
against drug addletlnn are ex
tremely lrlet, Imposing
five-year sentence If soldier
In found utility of tmlntl drum.
(In nplto of thin It In reported
thai many Japanese soldiers
are addict ) A pamphlet dls
tributed to all Japanese sol
diem contains thin paragraph!
"Tho tine of niircnllca l un
worthy of a superior race like
tho Japanene, Only Inferior
races that are decadent like
the Chinese, Europeans and
the Kant Indium are addicted
to the me of nurentle. Thl
In why they are destined to
become our slaves and eventu
ally disappear."
Aa one writer haa Mid
"aince Japan la trndliiu In nnr
cotlca, not only In Mauclmkuo
i and China but la shipping
them all over tho world, there
Mould be univeraal boycott
analnat her for this reason If
for none othrr."
Mra. Cieury pointed out in
lutr tulk thut while aha
coined to present only tho
durk side of thla totalitarian
nutlon 11 ahould bo remem
bered that there are many
fine Japaneae people and
they have many flno charac
teriatica. "Secret Agent of Japan."
by Amloto Veata, and, "In- .
aide Aala," by John Cunthcr,
were two books from which
Mra. Cieary gleaned much of
the material for her talk: also,
aha summarUed the highlights
given In the talk on the
"United Statea and Japun"
by Dr. U. U. Duback before
the Itotary club recently. Dr.
Dubnck Is the dean of men
nd head of tho polltlcul sci
ence department at Oregon
State college. He has made
study of the Orient and has
taken several trips over there.
Dr. Duback'f father was a
German, his mother a native
of Switzerland be was born
a few months after they Im
migrated to America. Like so
many others who come to our
shores he has a great faith In
and a desire to serve democ
racy. Dr. Duback stated that
while Japan's given reason
for her Invasion of China Is
a need for more territory for
her rapidly Increasing mil
lions, and to acquire neces
sary natural resources, he
feels the true reason Is a dif
ference of conflicting philoso
phies of the two nations.
Ho stated that we can not
over-emphasize the idealism
Implanted In China by mls-
sionarles and aocinl workers,
) nor the effect of Christianity
upon General Chiang Kai
shek. Japan's philosophy la
vostly different from this.
When asked If he thought
the United States should go
to war with Japan because of
our Interests In China, he an
swered "no," nor should we
because of our trado with
China; only, if It was a case
of defending our freedom of
the sens, or If it was our way
of life os against theirs.
At Monday's meeting the
' study group chalrnuin an
nounced their programs of
study for tho coming year;
theso will commence mooting;
regularly again soon after the
first of tho year. January
sixth is the day for the com
bined meeting of tho govern
