AGGRESSIVE IN CHINA
TOKIO, Oct. 4. Pleld Marshal Terauchl
haa been appointed by the emperor to suc
ceed Count Okuma as Premier of Japan.
In appointing Field Marshal Terauchl
rremler the Japanese Emperor passed over
Count Okuma's recommendation that VIs-
i laKHRKi uaio should be appointed.
Terauchl I Ooernor General of Korea
and has been regarded by powerful Influ
ences In Japan as the logical successor to
Okuma.
Jle Is known to have, a great Influence
with the Japanese mUltarlst party and li
raid to favor a mo.-e aggressive policy by
Japan both on the Chinese question nnd
the California Immigration law problem,
and In this latter respect is wholly nntag
onlstlo to the American view as applied to
his countrymen.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 4 Japan will take
her "place In the buii."
That was tho Interpretation placed In dip
lomats circles today bn the appointment
of Pleld Maishal Terauchl to bo Premier
of Japan Instead of Viscount Kato, former
Porelgn Minister, who was tho candidntc
of tho Japanese liberal movement.
It means an aggressive policy In China.
The former Governor Deneral of Koirn,
familiar with every development In the
Chinese Empire, will back to the limit all
of the suggestions to make Japan the
dominant factor In' far eastern affairs,
What effect the appointment wilt have
upon the various Itsues In dispute between
the United States and Japan will depend
on the developments of the European war.
It Is conceded here that the new Premier
will be the representative of the Japanese
militarist movement at home. Hut whether
the foreign policies of the nation will be
changed cannot be determined while th
Anglo-Japanese treaty nnd the new Jnpan-ese-IlusMan
rapprochement remain untried.
The only suggestion forthcoming from
Government officials today regarding the
latest developments In the Orient was that
Japan also Is watchfully waiting.

who Is confident of jilting up a substantial
plurality over Hughes and Wilson, expects

BRYN MAWR OPENS
WITH ENROLLMENT
THAT BEATS RECORD
D c a p i t c Infantile Paralysis
Quarantine, Number of Stu
dents Is Largest in His
tory of College
HONOR SYSTEM SUPREME
A larger enrollment than usual. In spite
of a strict Infantile paralysis quarantine,
marked the opening of Bryn Mawr College
today. The exact number of students will
not be known until tho registrar's records
are completed.
The quarantine forbids any student from
leaving the college and prohibits tho ma
trlculatlon of students from certain Infected
districts. Visitors are barred from the
grounds unless on Urgent business. Students
and other persons coming to tho Institution
through an Infected dIMrlct, such ns New
Tork, are required to wear gloves whllo
passing through the "danger sone" nnd to
wash their hands, thoroughly before entering
the college.
An appeal to the students to co-operate
loyally to the collega system of student
self-government wa mado by Dr. M. Carey
Thomas, the president. In her opening ad
dress at the chapel this morning.
rnnsiDEXT thomas's ri.KA
President Thomas emphasized the fact
that this Eystem bus been dcxeloped at
Uryn Mav,r to n. higher degree, probably,
than at any other college In the country.
The honor system Is not a limited mon
archy, alio tnld, but an absolute dictator
ship In Its government of college life, lxltg
supreme even In Its smallest detail. She
told the new students that they were not
under the rulo of their preceptors, and ex
plained that the rotation between students
and preceptors at Hryn Mawr was not one
of where students were to bo ruled or
governed by their professors, but one whero
they looked to their professors as older
and rnore experienced students In the Melds
upon which they were Just entering.
The chapel exerclnes opened with it read
ing of the lllblo li President Thomas and
a pra.er by Geoige A Iturtun, prnfcafor of
biblical literature After Piesldent
Thomas's) address, which was the main fea
ture of the occasion, they were concluded
by both xttidents and faculty rising nnd
Hinging the college hymn.
CIIANOHS IN" KACUI.TV"
A number of changes have been mado
In the faculty at Hryn Mawr for the en
suing year. Somo of them nro due to
leaves of abeenco granted to certain pro
fessors for purposes of study or of ex
perience In different systems of teaching In
vogue at other unlersltlcs; others to res
ignations and replacements in the ordinary
routlno of events.
One of the most notable changes Is tho
appointment of Dr. Howard Kollln Patch,
as professor of English philology. Doctor
Patch Is taking the place of Dr. Carlrton
Falrchlld Brown, who has been granted
leave of absence to lecture at the Univer
sity of Minnesota this year.
Doctor Patch graduated originally with
the degree of A. D. from 1 lobar t Collcgo
at Geneva, N. V. After this, however, he
went to Harvard for hln post graduate
work, where he took the doctorate of phil
osophy In 1910, electing for his major sub
ject medieval allegory. Ills thesis, vthlrli
was a treatise on "The Goddess Kortunu
In Medieval Literature," Is considered n
model of lta kind In scientific research work.
A romantic, .as welt as an academic In
terest Is attached to the coming of Doctor
Patch, Inasmuch as his appointment at
Bryn Slawr Is his first idnce his marriage
last August to Miss Helen L. Kennedy, of
New
