fore the Lission acts upon the Recommekdations sent to it for a votethore

are a number of items upon which I TRANSFER OF FUSAN TO AUSTRALIAN LI

am to write you at once

;gion.

The Com. endorsedthe letter1 the Chairman dated Feb. 14, to the Board on this subject.

It was passed that this Committee having examined the statement of cost and estimate of valuation of Fusan and Lilyang property, as prepared by Mr. Geo. H. w inn, and modified and endorsed by the i ission Property Com. , ap- prove of the same.

It was passed that we recommend to the Board that our work inf South Lyeng Jang Province be turned over to the Australian Lission <5n the con- n dition that they guarantee for the Fuaan property YEN43,S03.00 the total

original cost of the board's land and property. — 1 - — — — 1 *

The present valuation of the property in Fusan by members of tne miasiex Proper tv Jo, a. is «ui Y35,7CC.OO and Land YC0,500.00.

The cost of the property in Lilyang v>as^Y5J59. CO and present valuation is made the same as no notice need be taken UT"(T5preciat ion in value of the buildings or of Jbe increase of value of the land since the Australia Lission wish to take it over at its original cost.

After myletter of Feb. 14th enclosing Lr inn's/statement as to the property I received another letter from/iim saying that he had evidently erred as 4r to the value of the land, and'stating that further investigation together*} / with estimates from possible purchasers showed the value to be mueh les:

^than his former estimate.

rVo p-^TtT^CTrrrrr^T s o iTTcon junction with the Exec. Com. considered the whole matter with the result that the enclosed st-atement is sent you .

This is in accord with your request in Letter No. 181.

,Ve shall therefore look fox. .a., definite decision on the *part of the Board with authorization and "Tns true t ions as to the sale of Lfcf^^oporty .

The Australians are impatiently awaiting a definite decision as all theit

TRUSTEES FOR INCORPORATION .

Pending word from the Board approving Incorpo- F ration, preliminary steps and preparations only can be undertaken, but the Committee in accord with Lission action has selected the following as the persons to form the Incorporating Trustees ;-

Secretary and Treasurer, J.F.Genso,; other members, -H.G. Underwood, Z.K. kil- ler , A. L. Sharrocks , R.C. Reiner, Alex. A. ieters/ S. A. Moffett, J .G.Koldcrof t and Z.fagin.

iv.ost of these are the men vfno have had to do with all property matters and Deeds in their respective Stations.

Incorporation seems to us a necessity as without it we shall have many complications in the future as we may now have if the strict letter of the law is followed, which however is not likely as the authorities recog- nize the impossibility of having all deeds in regular form under previous administrations. _Fusan deeds are still in names of Baird, Sidebothara ,and

7 pr?:r o

The present law 1 believe provides for a stamp tax 'in case of sale and of 1/2,* in case of transfer without price.

Roughly estimating Board property in Korea 1 suppose transfers to .vMue of at least a killion of Yen worth of land aside from the ’taust be made when the Trustees are incorporated.

If regarded as sales the tax would be someY20 JOOG. CO or some Y5,G0C.CC would have to be paid.

It will be unjust to require the Board to pay such sums reason deeds to property are held as they are i.s that the government has never given any facilities for the proper recording <bf deeds although we and tha American Ministers and Consuls have for over 2C years been requesting such facilities and if granted the property would long since

Passed ^that the Chairman be 'requested to inform thg__Board on the subject of the Increased taxes for the present year ,( beginning a/tII 1st. 1914) an estimated increase of possibly Yen 5 ,CC^7CCT which itK^s ^evident- ly impossible to meet from the budget, and must be met as anfem^r^ency

Heretofore in Seoul, Taiku and ryengyang we fchave paid bract loAlly no taxes but with the abolition of the foreign Corkers ion a anfd.\ the' -'adopt ion of a new system of taxation all foreign is ni6b ftjn, be taxed

Here in Pyengyang we are to pay an Adbihist^

a iviunicipal Tax,an*(

a Provincial Tax.

The first two will tax each of our houses Y each, the Administration

tax on land will be7/lC00 of the assessed valuation per tsubo,the munici- pal tax may be l/2 of that and the Provincial tax l/lC .

1 do not know that the tax is especially high, but where for years we have ?paid nothing, it seems a large sum to pay although it is perfectly just ithut we should pay taxes.

'WF he point is that the budget cannot furnish the amount needed. Vie shall 0 Jjst you know as^soop as we know_ the exact amount. As yet it is not settled

that iur.IacCune has probably received funds for the support of an industrial Yorker in the Hugh O'Neill Academy we trust that the Board will not cause the preferred list of seven workers which thi3 Com- mit teepre pared as representing our greatest- needs to militate against the securing and sending of this man also.

The Japanese Congeregat ionalist -hurch has begun a mission here for work among Koreans and kr.Aatase the Superintendent has recently endeavored to raise Yloo,ooo.oo in Japan for an aggressive movement .This I understand he has been raising largely from non-Christians, prominent business men like Baron 5hihusaw8 , the Mitsui Company &c.

ians, vy receiving suspended or excommunicated people from our churches, and through the efforts of men deposed from the rainist-y or dropped . from employment by the Methodists or Presbyter ians . 3o we are led to believe from the reports from the southern Presbyterians ,the Methodists g the 1mw=i Kang-kei and Cyen-chun missionaries.

They are reported to be paying large salaries , more than our Korean es are giving their pastors and evangelists, and also to attempt

church- work chmrch dis-

wnerever any turbances .

The koreans look upon it as a nationalist movement rather than a relig- ious one, and it certainly looks as though it has in it considerable in the way of difficulties for our work, and it promises to raise many delicate questions.

Cf course any thing we may say or do in the matter will be interpreted as anti-Japanese feeling rather than as concern for the interests of the church, and we are .not saying anything publicly f but wo think you should b be made acquainted with what promises to Tsecomc a factor in the work in Korea.

He writes- "Your request for my views relative to the Board le ting the Ex. Com. to do something abfout the Andong Hospital, can b with the one statement that I think Dr.Br&wn has been so swamped w work and worries that he has forgotten the difficulties under whi in the inland stations labor. In the first place I can hardly believe that , i.irs . Schauf f ler expected to see a picture of the completed building^ f t

she asked for it, because I have written to her within the past year" tell* ing her of the delays and difficulties and sending pictures of buildings, site , etc . In the second place Dr. Brown should have told haT.’,,a£,

1 have no doubt he did, of the necessity for slow movement."

Dr. Smith then explains that he was sent to Andong Oct . 1912 , that the pupsfc r- chase of the site was then in progress and not yet fully completed al*- though enough is bought to go ahead with building; that in order to burn brick he bought brushwood all through the winter and spring each market d- ■ -/ day in order to get enough; that the brick burners worked from April isv to N'w.uth for his house and dispensary, having now on hand 9oooo brick; that lumber native and foreign ha' to be bought ; that standing timber was bought, men sent up in the winter to f«l A tMt these had to be

floate'1 down stream waiting for the fail ^ains as the Spring rise was not sufficient and that even then some of the timbers were stranded and still waiting for more rain than last year; that some lumber had to come from th Yalu fiver North and then brought up the river to Andong; that lumber and hardware had to be ordered ftom America which they hope to get in time to come up the river at the Spring rise; thatthe roofing was bought in Shanghai China last Summer, but has

My Dear Dr. Moffett —

The other day I sent the copies of the "Conspiracy Case” to you and the others whom you pointed out. Did you -ret them?

I have not received acknowledgment from any others, but I believe trey have got them. As I told you, the other day I left the Chronicle and entered a business firm, but I am sorry to find

the position unpleasant. I am determined to resign. In this

connection might I ask you to secure me a position In any schools

or other institutions under your care in Korea. As teacher, I

have experience in Japanese middle schools. I taught there

English and history. As for the other qualifications of mine,

X was an assistant to the Manager in a Japanese and a German

firms. Please be kino enough to enable me to find myself in

Korea again.

Yours faithfully,
