PICKARD APAN seems to Le doing what It can to hamper the new Nationalist aovernment of China, while the United States Is proceeding toward recognition of that go"ernm~nt and taking the lead in negotiutions to free China from the unequal treaties that ha,·e restricted the nation. Only a few days ago the withdrawal was ordered of 1,350 American ofiicers and marines from the "danger zones" in China, so there will be left in Shanghai and Tientsin only about 2,COO of onr troops. Immediately following this, Serreta1·y ot State Kellogg dispatched a' note to the N at!onallst foreign minister offerIng to begin at once negotiations for a Dew treaty that will permit Uhina to levy on Imports such tariff duties as lhe sees fit. Under the old treaties with various powers China Is not permitted to levy duties higher than 5 per cent ad valorem. Abolition of the privilege of extraterritoriality and the recognl tlon of the N allonallst gol'ernment will, It Is believed, come along 100n In due course. The negotiation of a new tariff treaty will not subject American goods at once to higher duties. l:nder the atlpulations made by Secretary KelChinese tariff autonomy would become effective until the unequal treaties with all other nations al~o are This IJrecludes iliscriminaa;;ainst American exports should nations fail to scrap the old h·eaties.

This meet. ing was called in order to bring to bear effective co-operation and organization for millions of Industrial workers out of work. new era. For 30 years Leon Ray Llvingston carved or painted his "monicl;er" (name or distinctive sign) on railroad watering tanks, railroad bridges, freight sheds and other places near milroads not only from the Canadian line to tlole :\Iexican border and from the Atlantic to the Pacific, but also from Alaska to Argentina. For more than a third of a century he rode on brake beams and the blind baggage, and by keeping a careful account of his expenultures he was able to estimate that before he re. tired (as he did a few years ago to marry, settle down. write his adventures and do the work he Is doing at present-trying to keep boys and girls from yielding to the call ot the road)· he bad traveled a total or 526,000 miles tor the total sum of $7.61! During the course of his travels, this most-famous hobo knew another who later became famous as a writer -Jack London-and the life they lived was typical of the old-time hobo. Told in terms of the picture;:que language of the hobo, they rode the 11 ''bumpers," "tops," blinds" of "tru~ks" of railroad trains until some "shack" (brakeman) or "con" (conductor) became '·hostile" and threw them oty of the "sldPdoor pullman" (freight car). If they surceeued in eluding the "snakes'' (switchmen) or "yard dicks" (railroad detecti\·es), they matle for the nearest "jungle" (place where tramps and hoboes congregated) where they were sure to find a varied collection of "fore-andafter&" (hoboes. who walked from place to place), "blnclle-stiffs" (a mi· gratory worker In the true sense of the word who "glommed fruit," "skinned mules," glommed spuds, or did any other menial labor whenever he had the cJwnce), "gay cats" (ordinary tramps anu "stake men" (workers with some money). There, too. would be certain to be be some "stew burns" (the tenderfoot of the profession) who listened eagerly as- tke elite of the brotherhood, the "comets," "perfesh" of "hlowed-ln-the-glass sUITs." told of their experiences In towns that were "juke" (not "hostile" to a 'bo), where he could "batter" (beg) on the "main stem'' (main street) for "light pieces" and be sure of getting some "scoff'' (feed) from a "hay !Jag" (woman) when he battered the back door." Then. too. there would be reminiscences of "deckin-g" (riding) a "peddler" (local freight) on a "jerk" (branch line) ; or an "oran~e special" (fruit car) In "crimpy" (bad) weather, of being "pulled" (di~rovered) by a "shack" and forced to "hit the grit" (walk), •lodging as he left the train, no douht, a "rlewdrop" (stone) hurled by the "shack" or "con." Or there might be tales of ad,·eutures In the big cities where they had to "carry the banner" (wall' tile st1·eet) all night or tal;e in the "Jesus screamers" (religious sall'ationists who speal; and sin.~ In the streets) In order to get a "flop·• (tllace to sleep).
