Japanese Provocation at Shanghai
MANY INCIDENTS SHANGHAI, July 0. “A grave insult to the Japanese Army” is how the spokesman of the Japanese Embassy describes an incident in which United States marines arrested 16 armed Japanese plain-clothcs men. The Japanese entered the defence sector of the International Settlement, violating the agreement, but were released after a Japanese apology had been given. The matter was believed to be settled, but the Japanese now deny having made an apology and charge the marines with assaulting several of the prisoners. “They treated all the Japanese like condemned criminals,” the Japanese declare.
