TAR JUST GONE
ONE OF REVOLTS
Marked by Unrest Involving the
Entire World.
Strife Against Graft and Monop-
oly—Great Strides Made in
Aviation,
When the historian of the future rec-
ords the events of the year 1611,
will lay particular stress on the poll
tical and social
world. This was not confined to any
one country, nor to a few countries;
it was world-wide, involving practical
ly every nation, both civilized and un-
civilized. It included
against longstanding governments,
battles of labor and capital, wars be-
tween different nations and, in short,
everything that could be branded as
strife against existing conditions or
growing conditions.
Most significant of all the events of
the year was the explosion In open
rebellion of the hatred, that had been
accumulating through the ages, of th
Chinese against the despotic Manchu
dynasty. Passive, unresisting, yet at
the same time loathing and despising
the power that held them in subject
fon, the millions in the Far East em-
pire had for centuries submitted to
being trodden on by unreasoning, over:
bearing, all-potent self-styled
gods. But China was gradually awak
ening and, when the first flames of
revolution burst forth, it was the sig
nal for the conflagration to
