JAPANESE CONCERN
BRITISH CAPITAL IN CHIN*
CRITICAL COMMUNIQUE
TOKIO, November. 9.
Despite official British assurances that they are not negotiating a loan to China, a vigorous Japanese War- Office communique criticises British intentions in ' that connection. Japan, the communique states, cannot overlook any British attempt to trace semicolonial China under the domination (of British capital, and predicts that the currency reform scheme will result in Chinese bank-notes ultimately becoming worthless,' throwing North China into irretrievable confusion, which Japan cannot condone. General Isogai, military attache, demands the revocation of the Chinese currency reform scheme, declaring that the Japanese authorities are determined that the silver stock in North China shall remain there. Japanese army' leaders regard the scheme as a victory for British interests, and Japanese elements at Nanking assert that it menaces the peace of the Far East. A Hong Kong message states that the Government has banned all exports of silver.
