Patterson Reviews Foreign Countries At Student Forum
Relates Governmental Attitude of Japan, Korea, and China. Which Differ Greatly
"The Philippine Islands are the beacon of the Orient," declared Prof. D. L. Patterson of the department of history at the student forum in the Unitarian Church, Sunday. "The almost complete self-government which the Philippines have possessed since 1916 has been the inspiration for a free India and a democratic China."
Professor Patterson, who last summer traveled extensively in eastern Asia, visiting Japan, Korea, and nine provinces of China, said that the Japanese are too busy with their national problems to think of war. Industry there is rapidly growing and much interest in the League of Nations is evidenced by the meetings in various cities.
In Tokio Professor Patterson addressed a large audience in which were present the House of Peers, the Lower House, professors from the University of Tokyo and Japanese newspaper men. In this address he brought the advantage of the certainty to refute the Japanese impression that the United States stayed out of the League of Nations because she was developing a great militaristic and imperialistic nation and preparing thousands of officers and an immense army. In Japan there is practically no hostility toward the League, according to Professor Patterson. The latter training of our colleges as an indication that America is preparing for war.
The Japanese are interested primarily in (1) a new government to replace the present unparliamentary form with Kato as the head; (2) a universal suffrage to replace the two-tiethirds ratio based on land ownership and (3) a change in farm tenancy.
In China Professor Patterson found a people more serene and easy-going, lacking the hustling energy of the Japanese. "The Chinese are more cheerful looking than the serious and intent Japanese," he said. "They have excellent merchants, and shops of silk-wearers, carvers of jade, and other craftsmans are open to the public.
"Chinese problems are much different from those of the Japanese. They are imposed by the neighboring powers, the foremost of which are Japan and Great Britain. The first great hindrance to progress in China is the provincial military governors, or 'war lords.' The second is British Policemen in China, the 'Sikhs' of India, and are ruthless in their treatment of the natives. The Sikhs are British subjects.
"The greatest hope for China lies in her efforts to develop a new government free from the ground up. A provincial constitution is now in use in half of the provinces. These provinces, it is hoped, will become states, like ours. Then a federal government will be established."
"I believe China will succeed," said Professor Patterson. "The great beacon has been created by us; namely, the Philippines, with their hardiness. Such freedom from foreign hindrance is the future hope of China."

Norway Schools Have No Athletic or Social Life
College athletics, fraternities, dances—in fact any kind of so-called "college life" in connection with college, is absolutely unknown to students in Norway. Norwegian students go to college to study. They do not even have any military training.
Athletics are taken care of by clubs which are a part of the social life of the various cities. These clubs have athletic teams, running most to soccer, which is the national sport. The field competitions, vying for the championship of Norway, and then the champion challenges the champion of England.
Ise Speaks At Forum
"The problem of Labor Organizations" was the subject of Prof. John Ise's talk before the Women's Forum last Thursday afternoon. He dealt especially with the need of intelligent motion in the industrial affairs of today.
The Problem of Labor Organizations Is Discussed
"During the nineteenth century our economic system was fool-proof and automatic," said Professor Ise, "but that was the time of free lands. If a laborer was dissatisfied he could move on. No attention had to be given to competition or competition and competition and of supply and demand tended to adjust themselves."
"Today we can no longer ignore these factions. Because of the disappearance of free lands the laborer is tied down. He therefore has adopted a different attitude, that of being oppressed by his work. Labor and capital are organized and the farmers are organizing, so with all these highly organized groups the government is finding it more and
more necessary to intervene, take charge of or place restrictions on industry."
In concluding Professor Ise said that he would express no opinion on labor organizations. The question is so large that one cannot bell it down to say that they are right or wrong. "The most that we can do is be good and they have been found good and in other they have been a source of much evil."

Thursday Night Nov.23
The Solwyns Announce "THE THEATRICAL EVENT BEAUTIFUL"
PERSONAL APPEARANCE OF AMERICA'S ADOPTED DAUGHTER
OLGA PETROVA
In the Unusual Successful Play From Her Own Pen
"The White Peacock"
With Unaltered Original Cast and Production—
In describing the notable event of Olga Petrova's appearance in Chicago during the current season, Amy Leslie, the foremost woman critic of the Chicago and Dramatic Editor of the Chicago News, said:
"Through it all floats in unconscious grace and power, in beauty and sculptural elegance, Ola Petrova, and she carries her literary output with resplendent eloquence of soul. She is a figure of potential importance in the world of art as it glitters by with flying stars. Not since Fanny Davenport was 18 years old has so statuesque and lovely a comedienne been given to the American stage. The same superb lift of the throat and chin, the sculptural straightness from the arch of her handsome foot to the curve of her eyebrows."
Petrova's tour is under the personal direction of Melville B. Raymond, who, in the past quarter century, has directed the tours of many of the world's leading stars—among them Guy Bates Post, Lord Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, Pauline Lord, Margaret Illington, Robert Edenon, Wilson Lackaye, and many others. Mr. Raymond assures the "particular" amusement seekers;— "No star under my direction has in all my experience so fully satisfied a critical and demanding public from the point of authorship—actress—vocalist—art student and public speaker."
"I consider Olga Petrova the epitome of all women who have ever toured the world—as only one familiar with many languages could—and speak the native of the country in which she was playing, singing or making a public address."
