Japan Begins To Get Worried Over China "Pleasantries"
!
Shanghai, To-day.
Threatening to punish all infractions “without mercy,” the Japanese military, naval and diplo- matic authorities have appealed to Japanese nationals to take no action tending to “bes- mirch the good name of Japan and her armed
forces." Recounting various crimes committed by Japanese civilians masquerading as military and civilian officials, or even as newspapermen, the state- ment emphasises that these offences have tend- ed to defeat the objectives of Japan's national policy in China.
It is stated that these activities are "arousing the enmity of the Chinese."
"Such action on the part of a few Japanese react unfavourably on Japan's good name, and hamper the peaceful and legal activities of Japanese residents here, and will end in defeat of the great objective of the Japanese expeditionary force."
The declaration emphasises that this goal is the overthrow of the former Nanking Government.
It is added that the Japanese army desires to assure the Chinese people as a whole of peace and pot to regard it as Japan's enemy. Reuter.
