A guided ramble through Chinatown exposes grim scenes of vice and poverty, including cocaine apparatus, a refined zither, and three ornate restaurants. The guide notes Oriental grandeur aimed to entrap young girls while detailing menus and curious dishes.
Mr Ellis discussed The Far East and Near East issues highlighting Asia as the center of world problems and the fall of Venezelos. A Swarthmore National Bank report details resources, loans, securities, deposits, and assets as of November 15 1920 with figures for cash, bonds, notes, and banking house value.
The document shows liabilities and capital figures for a Pennsylvania bank. It lists capital stock, undivided profits, current expenses, and various deposits including demand and time deposits. Notes indicate notes on reserves and discounts and state loan figures with an assertion that no loans carried excessive interest under Sec. 5197 Rev Stat. The cashier Elric S sproat swears to truth before Notary E C Walton on September 5 1920.
Mr. Ellis warns Asia cannot return to pre war order with nationalism spreading across Near and Far East. He cites China divided by governors and mercenary armies, and Japan torn between militaristic and democratic factions. The Woman's Club and American Legion thank him for lectures.
