In a scholarly address which dealt with past ana present history of China, and its relationship to the peoples of the east and west, Dr. | Agnew visualized China after the war as a great and powerful nation of far-reaching influence for good only if her people can place their | faith and trust in the sacredness of treaties, and in a true interpreta- tion and application of the brother- { hood of man and principles of righteousness. Her faith already shaken by the failure of the nations within the fold of the League ot Nations to impose sanctions and | penalties first upon Japan in 1831 | and later upon Italy for their viola- tion of sacred treaties to embark up- on cruel wars of aggression, China must receive fair consideration when peace terms were being settled by Britain and her allies who were go- ing to in the war. Failing this, Dr, Agnew stressed. China, for centur- ies a peabe-loving nation, with peo- ples who had not yet learned to hate, might follow the example of the western and other powers and become militarisistic. Unless the nations of the world get away from the idea that treaties only hold good as long as the con- ditions under which they were writ- ten obtain, one war would follow another and there would be no peace. China, now being pressed hard by Japanese, had endured severe pun- ishment for three years, but her people, young and old, inspired by the Christian character and exam- ple of their government leader, and 'his wife, would carry on and eventually win, because of the new life movement which was dally gathering momentum and determin- ing the destiny of China for years to come. Dr. Agnew expressed the hope that when the peace terms were being drawn up, Jesus would be standing behind those who signed the peace documents, so that China and other countries now at the mercy of aggressors and oppressors would find a new life in the light of the teachings and doctrines of Christ. The future of China de- pended very much on how nations who can help ner today do so, the speaker said. The speaker was introduced and brought to Whitby by Rotarian C. R. Carscallen, and he vote of tnanks was moved by Rotarian Clif- ford Park, Guests at the luncheon included Hon. Gordon Conant, K.C., Attorn:y General, and Dr. J. C.

Sir Walter Citrine, General Secre- tary of the British Trades Union Congress, told the American Feder- ation of Labor convention: "I say to you something that no British statesman has yet said: Bombing is having an effect upon our output. Speed is of the essence now as never before because our output cannot keep up on full sche- dule because of the bombings. "How long we can continue, de- pends not merely upon our will but also upon the will to hit back. The only thing the Nazis understand is the power to make them suffer." He sald the three aims of the Bri- tish Labor Party are to prosecute the fight with "inflexible resolve," safeguard the rights of the citizenry and widen the range of the move- ment, Appealing for faster production of war supplies in the United States, Sir Walter said: "American labor can conquer the Nazis without firing a shot. I want you to make your workshops the first line of defense for all democracy." Unless democracy is intelligent enough to perceive means of speed and action; he said, it is impossible "for us to combat dictatorship." Great Britain has never been threatened by such dangers as those "never before have we had such a magnificent response from a neigh- bor, such as you gave us."
