JAPAN’S DEMAND.
British Troop Manoeuvres Objected To. MANCHUKUO SLIGHTED. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. (Received July 23, 11.30 a.m.) SHANGHAI, July 22. Difficulties have arisen between the British and Japanese military commanders in North China regarding the movements of British troops in the Shanhaikwan area. According to Peiping dispatches the Japanese Ivwantung Army commander is annoyed because the British commander of the Tientsin Garrison failed officially to inform the Japanese of British troop manoeuvres in the Pei-ping-Mukden railway area. Every year British troops in common with the French and others have proceeded outside the Great Wall at Shanhaikwan for training purposes, ground being specially allotted for this purpose under the Boxer Protocol. The Japanese now claim that Manchukuo is no longer part of China and that the British must approach the Changchun Foreign Office for permission to continue to use the training ground.
