London, May 24,
Referring to the report that as the result of Japanese pressure Germany is withdrawing her advisers and suspending supplies to China, Reuter's Hankow correspondent says the German Ambassador, Herr Trautmann, said that Germany had recalled her military advisers because she was anxious to be strictly neutral in the Far East. A Red Cross mission which arrived from Germany two months ago is also leaving. The Hankow correspondent of the British United Press says that the Chinese military circles hint that the German advisers may not be permitted to leave because of the possibility that they would convey war secrets to Japan.
