LYTTON REPORT
CHINESE DENUNCIATION RECOVERY OF LOST TERRITORY FORCE ADVOCATED (United Press Assn—Telegraph Copyright.) (Rec. 7.10 p.m.) Shanghai, October 10. Severe denunciation of the Lytton report was 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 politics. The telegram announces that the commission’s suggestions _ for the demilitarization 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 uphold justice. The only effective means of saving the present situation is armed resistance, while public opinion calls for a military expedition to recover the lost Manchurian territory.”
