LIKE SAVAGES IN
i KOREAN REVOLT
PEKING.— (Correspondence of As
sociated Press.)—Rev. Edward W.,
Thwing, oriental secretary of the In
ternational Reform bureau, who was
in Korea in March and personally wit.
nessed some of the disturbances re
sulting from the Korean independence
movement, declares that the lower
laapanese officials and soldiers have
acted like lawless savages in dealing
with this peculiar situation.” The
movement in Korea is described by the
Dev. Thwing, who formerly was an
American missionary as “a peaceful
resolt which should have been handled
with the greatest of tact.”
“In a remarkable manner,” he said
to the Associated Press, “the Korean
independence movement has- manifest
ed skill, courage and organizaition
that has been a great surprise to
many. It has shown more than ever
before how unreasonable without jus
tice, cruel and brutal the military rule
of Janpan is in this land. I could hardly
believe these things if I had not seen
them with my own eyes.
“The police and soldiers have ar
rested old men and little children and
cruelly beat them. Little girls of only
ten years of ag e women and school
girls have been shamefully treated an
and subjected to physical punishment
and torture for no other crime than
shouting with peaceful enthusiasm for
ther own country and crying out for
th e independence which Japan had
guaranteed by solemn treaties.
Jaaps Hiding Truth.
“These things have been witnessed
not by one or two but by Scores of
missionaries and others in many parts
of Korea during March. If the world
could only know these things they
would certainly heed this cry of dis
tress from an oppressed people. But
the Japanese are doing all they can
to keep the world from knowing the
truth. A report- has just come that in
one city, from which letters have been
sent, they ar e making it very hard
for the missionaries, eve r hinting at
deportation unless they stop telling

out the truth.
“The following are some of the
things that I have actually seen with
my own eyes:
“Small school boys knocked down
and cruelly beaten by Japanese sol
diers. This was not a question of ar
resting them, but savage unjustifiable
barbarism.
“Soldiers stop and deliberately fire
into a crowd composed only of girls
and women wh o were simply shouting
‘Mansei.”
“A small boy of ten years shot thru
the back.
An unressting old man of 85 years,
pounded kicked and beaten by sev
eral Japanese soldiers until he could
not walk.
“A crowd of about twenty school
girls who wer p quietly walking along
the public road, not even shouting,
chased by soldiers, beaten with guns,
knocked down and so shamefully trea
ted that it made one’s blood boil.
’’Japanese firemen chasing boys and
girls with long iron hooks trying to
catch them with them.

with his head crushed in with one of
these hooks.

The one exceptional battery is the Vesta. The vitals of the Vesta are dif
ferent:. Three exclusive improvements give it double life.
The Vesta Indestructible Isolators positively lock the plates apart and prevent
this form of short circuits. The Vesta Impregnated Wooden Mats eliminate
"treeing”—another cause of short circuits. The use of Titanium, a rare
mineral, enters into the lead plates, hardening them and adding vastly to the
efficiency of the battery. It also precipitates mineralsand impurities in solution.
These exclusive, patented features in the vitals of tire Vesta make this wonder
ful battery last twice as long.
This is a positive proved fact; yet the Vesta costs no more than ordinary
batteries. Ask any Vesta Service Station man to explain Vesta superiority.

“An American missionary roughly

“Women knocked down with guns
and kicked into the ditch.
“These and many other things I
hav p seen with my own eyes. Other
foreigners have seen the same and
worse. One can little imagine the reign
of terror in all parts of this land, at
the very time when the Japanese peace
delegates are talking of ‘humanity and
justice and equality of races.' They
don’t know the meaning of these
words. And the punishments and tor
tures at the police stations and jails
make a still more awful story. I have
seen men who were beaten between
wooden crosses by the Japanese.
“And why is all this cruel punish
ment given? Not for rioting, or for
resisting arrest: 1 have not seen one
case of this; not for carrying dan
gerous waepons, they hav e none; but
just for shouting out the desire of
their hearts for the independence of
their country.
