U.S. Warned About Russia, China in 1853 BY EARNEST HOBERECHT United Press Staff Correspondent TOKYO (UP) There was an American in China 100 years ago who predicted the events-of today. He warned of Russia's aims and ambitions in the area. It was all written down but forgotten or ignored when Russian-supported Mao Tse-tung and his "agrarian reformers" were i into power.

That American of long ago was the U. S. Commissioner in Shanghai, Humphrey Marshall. He was fourth choice for the job that nobody wanted. A West Point graduate, he served two years in Congress.

Marshall arrived in China in January, 1853. He found things in quite a fluid slate. It was the time of the Taiping revolt and all of the major foreign powers were faced with problems in connection with their China policies. According to history, Marshall thought the British were trying to cast their lot with the Taiping rebels in hope of being on the win ning side and benefiting thereby. He expressed his fears bluntly ami predicted what would' happen if proper steps were not taken.

Marshall Russia's "assistance would probably end-in passing China under a Russian protectorate, and in. the extension of Russian limits to the Hoangho, or the mount of the Yangtse." The interference of the czai would readily-suppress the rebel lion, by driving the rebels from the great highways of commerce, anc" from the occupation of the towns on the seaboard," he added "Whatever might be the ultimate compensation demanded by Ru: la for this timely service, China 1 could not resist its collection. I think that almost any sacrifice should be made by the "United States to keep Russia from spreading her Pacific boundary, and to avoid her coming directly to interference in Chinese domestic affairs; for China is like a lamb before the' shearer, as easy a conquest as were the provinces of India." New Warning Marshall pointed out that if Russia got control of China, "the fate of Asia will be sealed, and the future Chinese relations with the United States may be considerec as closed for ages, unless now the United States shall foil the mi- oward result by adopting a sound policy. It is my opinion that the highest interests of the United States are involved in sustaining China. Geraldine Fitch doesn't mention Marshall in her new book, "Formosa Beachhead," but she writes as though she had his 100-year-old warning in mind.

She says many of America's problems in Asia result from failure to read history books and documents which clearly show Russia's aims. "Nothing is clearer than Rus sia's determination to conquer Jhina completely, as prime to world conquest," she writes. "That is the basic pattern." LEAVES FOR FAR EAST PLYMOUTH Pvt. Keith Harman, who has been in training at Fort Lewis, left the States for the Far East. Before leaving, Keith called his parents, Mr.

and Mrs. Walter Harman by long distance and. enjoyed a visit with them, his youngest brother Ray and another brother and his family, Mr. and Mrs, Donald Harman and son of Des Moines who were visiting in the home at that time. Be heard the ruling authorities of China, the Manchus, were being approached by Russia.

The czar was offering to aid the Manchus in return for certain favors. Worth Any Sacrifice So, 100 years ago, Marshall wrote the U. S. Secretary of State. EYES GLASSES FITTED We offer compleie eyeglass service from eye examination to lens grinding.
