SINO - JAPANESE DISPUTE
AMERICAN OFFICIAL SILENCE
EARLY PRONOUNCEMENT RECALLED ffnlted Press Association —Bv Electrlo Telegraph—Copyright (Received October 7, 7.45 p.m.) WASHINGTON, October 6. Although the State Department has officially remained silent regarding the Lytton Report, it is unofficially recognised here that no international question, since the world war, holds greater interest for the nation. The question of the United States representation. when the Council of the League of Nations considers the report is still unanswered, but according to London Press reports early in the day, cited the pronouncements by Mr Stimson. which appear to bind the United States to consultation. It is recalled that Mr Stinison, in a speech on August 8, contended that consultation was provided for in the Briand-Kellogg Pact. Report from abroad indicate that this statement was accepted as a distinct change of attitude on the part of the United States. However, whether Mr Stimson meant consultation with the League or with several countries independently is problematical.
