Political integrity and wealth in Manchuria coal mine
The Japan Herald notes the Foshon coal mine in Manchuria as a potential part of government plans for the South Manchurian Railway, one of the world's richest coal fields with deposits extending 100 to 120 feet deep and about ten miles wide, with rail and river transport facilities. The piece contrasts political integrity pleas with varied remarks on reciprocity in politics, church giving, and notable figures like Winston Churchill and J. J. Hill, while citing Oklahoma's projected population of 1,600,000.
