Buddhist Propaganda in China

By L. L. C.

THE Buddhist leaders, especially the progressives, contend that the propagation of religion in China has been monopolized too much by Christians. The number of Japanese missionaries sent to China by the Buddhists has now been increased, and the campaign for further missionary work is fully under way. The movement is frankly explained as both religious and political. Japan has apparently come to the realization that her missionaries can accomplish much in spreading the influence of Japan in China and in impressing in a friendly way the desires of the Japanese to increase their prestige there. This movement should awaken us to the need of greatly strengthening our own work in China immediately.
