Citizens' Forum Deals An unusuaily camprehensive address an Asia in general, de- livered by Mrs. Howard Jeffery, introduced the topic '*The Rise af Asia" at the Citizens' Forum in tbe High School, Tuesday evening. The speaker gave an historical background af Asia's ancient civilization and traced pragresa and recessians tbi-ougb the Mon- gol and Manchu dynasties down ta the Republican revolution af Dr. Sun Yat Sen and the present regime af Cbiang Kai Shek. The variaus imperialist wars and the development af extraterritoriaîity were autiined with unusual clar- ity and events leading up ta Japan's present war on China were portrayed. Unfortunateîy space does nat permit camplete publication af the speaker's fine contribution. The discussion hinged upon what Canada and the United Na- tions couid do ta biing about free- dom from want in Asia; what pohcey was prper tward Asiatics in Canada; what steps shouid be taken ta eiminate causes af fric- tion between East and West. The braadcast came fi-rn Victoria, B.C., and the debaters were Sur Robent Holland, of the Indian Civil Service, Miss Helen Cbiang, a Chinese bacteriolagist and Dasha Sing Soonga, former mem- ber af the Indian National Con- gi-ess; Their points of view di.f- lei-ed. Miss Chiang pleaded for equality af treatment. Mi-. Hal- land inclined to a trinity of great Pawers and Mi-. Soonga asked for Ireedomn now for India. The Forum groups agi-eed gen- erahly that Canada and the United Nations shouid help feed Asiatics, pramate warld trade and educa- tian and seek ta i-aise Asia's stand- ard af living. Asiatics should lie accepted as prabationary citizens, treating tbem not as an inferior race, but bringing them ta a pro- per appreciation af oui- demo- ci-atic civilization, ail witb a view ta development af world unity and co-aperation. Causes af fric- tion cauld lie eliminated through exchange af scientilic Personnel, af students and teachers, a ration- ai appraacb ta immigration proli- lems, complete denial of the prac- tice af extraterritariaîîty, placing principles af humanity above mnere dollars.
