SINO-JAPANESE DISPUTE
FINDINGS BY LYTTON COMMISSION. (Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 8.55 a.m.) London, November 23. Discussing the League of Nations and Manchuria, The Times says neither China nor Japan is blameless for the violent turn of events and it is impossible for the League Council to pass upon one or the other party a sentence of guilty. The whole task of the League must be to regularise in collaboration with the countries concerned a position which has grown in a haphazard manner and gradually establish a system acceptable to both sides. Such a solution has been clearly stated in the Lytton report. The League cannot re-transform by a stroke of the pen the Republic of Manchuria into a Chinese province. On the other hand the League can and should refuse to recognise the State of Manchukuo, because of the existence of conflicts with the findings of the Lytton Commission on the basis of which the League must find its solution. The League must refuse to accept any settlement not meeting with the legitimate needs and wishes of the population.
