Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Truth About China and Japan The present volume has been written primarily to allow the ordinary reader to see at a glance what the position really is today in Eastern Asia, and to explain precisely why there should be conflict between China and Japan. The essential point - which the writer first insisted upon at great length in The Fight for the Republic in China - is that a dual policy, one policy for the East for the West; that she uses military power and secret loans to advance the first, and diplomacy and publicity the second and that this intricate matter can be understood only by exploring the history of the remote past and linking it up with what is taking place to-day. The fact that the Imperial Conference, which has just concluded its labours, failed to reach any unanimous conclusions on the subject of Japan gives additional point to the arguments which follow, and demands that the important group of documents in the Appendix - particularly the anglo-japanese Treaty - be studied in the light of this new development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from China and Japan On November 6, 1900, Miss Emma Penton Kendrick, of Louisville, Kentucky, was married to Doctor John D. Trawick, of Nashville, Tennessee. They left immediately for San Francisco, from which place they sailed for their new home in China. Doctor Trawick is an associate surgeon in the Methodist Hospital at Soochow. Her letters from this far-off Eastern land were so very inter esting that many friends requested that they be given to the public, and some of them were accordingly published in a leading newspaper of Louisville, her native city. Many complimentary things were said of them, and many requests were made that they be put in a more permanent form. Some few of these are printed as an appendix to this book.' It is in response to these requests that this little volume appears. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Little Journey to China and JapanThe Chinese proudly boast that their government is the oldest on the globe; that China was a nation five thousand years before the United States was born; that they have books from three to four thousand years old; that they used the printing -press a thousand years before it was used in Europe. More than four thousand years ago these pe0p1e knew how to make brick from clay, how to build canals, how to sing, and play on musical instruments, how to write, and how to calculate the movements of the stars; also, they had domestic animals, cultivated the fields, and had forms of worship and government.They know little of modern inventions and ma chinery, but they have a wonderful skill in handicraft, and their artists and artisans are in many lines not equaled by those of any other country.They tell us, also, that their race numbers more than one-fourth of all the people on the globe, and that their territory includes more than acres of ground, or more than the United States.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from China, Japan and the USA Because the population of Shantung is directly confronted with an immense amount of just such evidence, it cannot take seriously the professions of vague diplomatic utterances. What foreign nation is going to intervene to enforce Chinese rights in such a case as Po-shan? Which one is going effectively to call the attention of Japan to such evidences of its failure to carry out its promise? Yet the accumulation of precisely such seem ingly 'petty incidents, and not any single dramatic great wrong, will secure Japan's economic and political domination of Shantung. It is for this reason that foreigners resident in Shantung, no matter in what part, say that they see no sign whatever that Japan is going to get out; that, on the contrary, everything points to a determination to consolidate her position. How long ago was the Portsmouth treaty signed, and what were its nominal pledges about evacuation of Manchurian territory?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From China and Japan Here we are, safely across the channel, and feeling very much the better for having slept on a very downy couch, till nearly eleven o'clock this morning! By the time we got to Folkestone, it became evident that we were likely to have rather a toss, and so we had - more of a side jumble than anything else, but quite enough to disturb the equilibrium of most of our fellow victims. I sat on deck most of the time, under a mountain of plaids to keep me warm, but when these failed to do so any longer, I descended to the ladies' cabin, which I found completely occupied by a crowd of wretched mortals, in 'every attitude of woe. I need not describe further the charms of the passage to Boulogne, they being only too pain fully familiar to you. The only excitement during the journey to Paris, was the very common one of keys declining to appear when wanted. I dived into my travelling bag with perfect assurance Of finding them there, but alas l they were not to be found.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from China, Japan and Korea IN a book published at the end Of the year of the abdication of the Manchu dynasty and the establish ment of the Chinese Republic, I endeavoured to trace the causes, and to predict some Of the results, of that upheaval. Before proceeding to discuss the history Of the eight years which have elapsed Since that book was written, I propose to revert briefly to some of the views which it expressed and to some of the opinions which it evoked, in China and abroad. Eight years are all too brief a space of time in the life of a nation to afford any conclusive evidence as to the direction Of its political evolution; nevertheless, the course of events since 1912, and the actual position of affairs at Peking and in the provinces afford, I think, good ground for certain useful conclusions in regard to questions upon which opinion has widely differed, and still differs, in England and America. Of these, the most important is, firstly, the general question of the fitness Of the Chinese people for 2self government and, secondly, the question of Young China's aspirations and achievements in the organisation and working of representative institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What of China and Japan? First of all, the country is suffering from the severe business depression. The government and the banks in endeavoring to hold up wholesale prices to prevent insolvencies among business men, prevented the healthy liquidation of the cost of living; The high cost of living has held up production costs, and this is making it particularly difficult for Japan to sell goods in the present depressed export market. It would look as though business conditions must become worse before they can become better, and in the meantime the buying power of the country may become less than at present.

Download or read book Japan and China 1917 Classic Reprint written by Motono Ichiro and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japan and China, 1917 Dr. Reinsch said that they were all very happy to welcome in their midst fellow-citizens from the United States, some of whom were directly interested in Chinese affairs. Chinese business methods were only one degree less confusing than Chinese politics. The Chinese business sense was admirable in transactions between man and man, but it rather tended to lose itself in the air where big corporation finance was concerned. Chinese were apt to take credit as an opportunity of getting money and not ability to perform. A year ago a man came to him and said that he had discovered a solution of the problem of Chinese finance. He was not'in authority himself but said that he knew a man who was in authority. He was asked to unfold his scheme, whereupon he inquired whether it was possible to buy silver direct from the United States, which would effect such a saving by dispensing with the profits of middlemen and banks. The man was informed that after all, the saving would not be so enormous. The man's ardour was somewhat cooled but he said he would still do it. How much silver would you buy P asked the speaker. Oh, replied the man. How are you going to pay for it? He was asked. In Treasury notes, he replied But they would never be accepted, he was told. Why not? The man asked. They are perfectly good. China has never once in her history defaulted. Treasury notes are as good as gold. But the miners cannot accept them, it was pointed out. Would it be better, perhaps, continued the man, to have the Treasury notes secured P Yes, it might be so considered, thespeaker told him. What security do you propose? You know the great treasures in our National Museum. We can pledge them as security. You mustn't do that, said the speaker. It is possible that you might not be able to pay and then the treasures will be taken away. That's why we want to do it! You Ameri cans are our friends and we know you would never do it! (laughter.)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Concise History of the War Between Japan and China The compiler has also studiously avoided entering into argument or treading on disputed ground, and believes that his compilation is at least free from rhetorical flourishes and from padding. He has with an effort confined himself to a plain, unvarnished relation, where it is so easy to let enthusiasm run riot; and whether this be a merit or otherwise, only the general interest taken in the war will probably induce the perusal of this work.

Download or read book The Twenty One Demands written by G. Zay Wood and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Twenty-One Demands: Japan Versus China Japan wished, however, to play bigger stakes. Sofib on August 15, 1914, Japan sent the ultimatum to Germany, calling on the latter to deliver on a date not later than September 15 to the Imperial Japanese authorities, without condition or compen sation, the entire leased territory of Kiao-chow, with a View to the eventual restoration of the same to China. The ultimatum was ignored by Germany, and war was declared by Japan on August 24. The Chinese Government, realising that a major portion of the military operations against the German leased territory would be carried on in the Shantung prov ince, and being anxious to limit these operations to the smallest area commensurate with the military necessity so that her people would be subjected to as little miseries and devastations of the armed con flict as possible, established a special war zone in which the belligerents could carry on their hostile operations against each other. The establishment of this special military area in Shantung was noti fied to Japan, Germany, and the allied Powers, in a circular note under the date of September 3, 1914. It is very important to remember the creation of this special military area, for its abolition later was seized upon as an excuse justifying the presentation of the Twenty-one Demands. It is also important to add that to this war zone Japan vigorously objected, for She thought that it would tend to hamper and to limit her military Operations.
