Appreciation of
Work of Amateurs.

eG GG HS Wednesday, April 21, 1920.

Last Sunday night the Prince Rupert Symphony Orchestra

completed a most successful season, and last night and

Monday

the Amateur Dramatic Society put on a most successful comedy,

the third of a series. In each case good work was done

It is to be hoped

that next season these two organizations will again take up the

work that the city will benefit.

Plebiscite on
Prohibition.

The Provincial Government has arranged for a plebiscite to

be taken on the Prohibition Act.

The people will decide whether

or not they will continue as at present or have the government
sell liquor in sealed bottles. If the people decide for continuation
of prohibition, the prohibition leaders in thé south say they will
try to have a petition sent to the Dominion Government asking
for a bone dry measure, somewhat similar to that in force during

the war. It is now up to the people.

Trouble Between o
China and Japan.

China takes exception to-the position that she has to nego-
tiate with Japan in regard to the return of Shantung, the place

which was taken from Germany duripg the war.

Three million

students are reported to have gone on strike as a protest against

such action.

The argument is that the territory is China’s and

she should noi be obliged to negotiate in order to get it. Ht
should have been a part of the treaty, It was not in the treaty
because it was understood. that Japan would surrender it volun-

tarily. That was to protect the Japanese pride.

It is probable that Japan will give up the territory, but China

feel that it is demeaning to have to ask for it.

Boycott is
Powerful Weapon.
As soon as the treaty was signed, China brought
boycott of Japanese goods, That is her great weapon.

On more than one occasion the

boycott has been brought into force and as a result not a pound
of Chinese freight was carried on a Japanese vessel and not a
single Chinese passenger would travel on a Japanese ship.

The Chinese are well organized in some respects.
