APPEAL TO NATION
CHINA’S LOST TERRITORY. NO' FAITH IN LEAGUE. Shanghai, Oct. 10. A severe denunciation of the Lytton report is made by 15 members of the Central Executive Council in a circular telegram addressed to the nation. The signatories include many leading figures in Chinese political life. The telegram announces that the Commission’s suggestions for the demilitarising of Manchuria, the establishment of a special autonomous regime, the summoning of the proposed advisory conference and recognition of Japan’s rights and interests in Manchuria are incompatible with China’s sovereignty and territorial and administrative integrity. The message adds: “It would be suicidal for China to place further reliance on the League of Nations, which has fully exposed its impotence to up ; hold justice. The only effective means of saving the present situation is armed resistance, while public -opinion calle for a military expedition to recover the lost Manchurian territory.”
