te the- Far Kant, today named the 1'ow-rs-Weightman-Kesengarten
Ce., of
Philadelphia and New Yerk, ns one
of the principal exporters of this drug
from the Unlted Stated.
He declared tbe drug reaches China
through Jamn in violation of the
American-Chinese treaty agreement,
and that British and American smug
glers, in collusion with the Japanese,
are shipping opiates Inte China "by

V:.
General Rebert Geerge is'lvelle. the
here of Verdun," was given a warm
welcome en hit arrival In Philadelphia
today. And the "here of Verdun" feels
just ns kindly toward Americans as
Americans feel toward him. x
"The frlensdhlp between my country
and your country, extending ever lust
three centuries, is tee strongly founded,
tee firmly rooted, ever te be destreved."
he declared in response te h welcome
given him by Mayer Moere.
"History shows that Lafayette mid
France came te the aid of your United
States. And history shows hew your
country, and your men, responded when
France wns menaced. We will never
forget," he continued.
The famous Frenchman armed in
Dr. Crafts displayed a copy of a

national Anti-Opium Association in Director hrnrst Tustln, as the official
Felting. The directors are nil British
or Americans located n Teklng.
The memorandum awerttt tuat many
tens of merphia are getting Inte China
annually and that the Powers-Weight-nan
-Rosengarten Ce, Is one of the prin
cipal exporters from this country.
According te the Pekln commlttee, the
poxes 'of merphia reaching China arc
labeled, with the firm's name. It was
set charged that they were shipped te
China directly, but evidence was pre
sented that the opiates are first sent te
Japanese", frequently transhipped te
China without even being taken ashore
at Osaka, Japan, their original destlna destlna
tien. Dr. Crafts said that he had asked
"several Phlladelphlaus" te pretest te
the company named agninst the practice
of sending habit-forming drugs te the
Far East, but refused te divulge their
names. Frem ether sources It was
learned that two of these with whom
. he lias communicated or expects te
communicate are Dr. Hemer W. Tope
and Dr. Heward C. Stanten, the lat
ter secretary of tbe Presbyterian Min
isterial Association of Philadelphia.
V-Jieprccntatlves of the reform bureau,
who will meet here December 0 te 10,
inclusive, will ask amendments te the
Harrison drug act te prevent the ship
ment of merphia from and through the
United States te China, even though
thia prohibition makes it impossible for
England te ship it through this .coun
try and prevents merphia from going
te Japan from tbe United States.
"I am deliberately convinced that the
Japanese ''are encouraging the use of
merphia in China for two purpeses:
First, for! profit and revue, and, second,
te keep China weak," Dr. Crafts said.
"I have beena defender of Japan for
a long time, but I haven't the slight
est doubt that the shrewd, crafty Jap
anese see that this is the way te keep
the powerful giant China se wak she
can work her will with her.
"Japan is regarded by missionaries
as the Prussia of the East the Hun
of the Orient. This is tbe opinion of
the kindly, Christian missionaries who
have a hatred for nothing but the
wrong."

By the Associated Press

Sands, former Washington banker, be
fore the congressional committee Inves
tigating shipping beard affairs, that he
knew anythink of a division of a $40,-
000 "bribe" fund for procuring con
tracts of the beard, in connection with,
which the name of It. W. Beiling, ship
ping beard treasurer and brother-in-law
of President Wilsen, had been mentioned.
He nlse denied thnt be hed entered
Inte any arrangements with Sands
whereby Beiling or Lester Sutler, sec
retary of the beard, were te assist In
Procuring n contract for the Downey
e. or the Providence Engineering Cor
poration, a subsidiary.
Craner tcstnieu mat wnnc no wns in
Washington the Providence company
was endeavoring te procure a contract
for the construction of ten tusbents and
that he lenrncd the financial standing
of the concern was "net satisfactory te
the credit department of tbe shipping

te $40,000."

contract amounted te mere than
$2,000,000 nnd pointing te the alleged
fact that Mr. Dewney eventually settled
