SHANGHAI SENSATION
BRITISH YOUTH MISSING KIDNAPPING SUSPECTED SHANGHAI, July 21. The entire foreign commuity is stirred by the disappearance of a British youth named Tiiorburn, 19, on Juno 1, whom the British consular investigations substantially prove was kidnapped and possibly maltreated by native soldiery within 50 miles of Shanghai. A Nanking Government report denies all knowledge of the whereabouts of Tiiorburn.
National societies, supported by more than 30C0 British signatures, have cabled London, demanding strong action. The affair is creating unprecedented international indignation.
