SHANGHAI, 7th March
The local situation is growing worse. The Chinese refuse to recommence business. The native banks remain closed, and- the majority of shops are only doing surreptitious trading.
The Chinese object to foreign interference in Chapei, where conditions threaten the health of the foreign areas. The Japanese have asked the Settlement authorities to control the cleaning and policing of Chapei, but the authorities refuse unless asked by the Chinese. '
In the meantime the Japanese are consolidating their positions on the new front. Their aeroplanes report heavy concentrations of Chinese at many points beyond the twenty kilometre zone. Incoming passengers on the Yangtze River steamers report heavy firing on Sunday in the Liuho area.
