A Serious Mistake by Missionaries in Cable Protest
A cable protest from seven American missionaries led by Ries AW Thwing criticized China for Japan pressures during a China-Japan conference in Peking.

It urges the American Board of Missions to repudiate such actions and discusses the broader politics of public service and honesty in office.
