EUGENE CHEN'S OPEN LETTER
TO PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
Paris, To-day.
In the University Club of Paris yesterday, Mr. Eugene Chen, former Chinese Foreign Minis- ter, read an open letter to President Roosevelt. Mr. Chen argued that the Japanese war on China was part of the "world war" which had already begun in different parts of the world. The safest way to prevent a world war, he said, was to help China while the anti-war powers were still stronger than the war powers.
After outlining the Imperialist
ambitions of the
authoritarian
states, Mr. Eugene Chen said it was obvious that these new em- pires could only be founded on the break-up of the British and French Empires, dismemberment of the -allies of France in Central and Eastern Europe, domination of the Arab world,partition of the colonies of Belgium, Portugal and the Netherlands, conquest of China and expulsion of the United States as a naval power in the Pacific.
FUMBLING. INDECISION Mr. Eugene Chen attacked the "fumbling indecision and diploma- tic humiliation" of the peace powers, which envisage the opera- tions of the war powers as a for- tuitous series of diplomatic inci- dents and local wars, not connect- ed and not related.

Tokyo Planning To Open China Affairs Bureau
Tokyo, To-day. Establishment of a new China Affairs Bureau is likely very soon, Prince Konoye, the Premier, indicated during the budget session the House of Representatives.
Asked whether the Government thought such a Bureau neces- sary to deal with the ever increasing China questions, the Premier- answered in the affirmative and indicated that with closer relations between Japan and China following creation of a new Chinese “gov- ernment, more attention would be given to economic affairs of the two countries.
The Premier added that at present the National Planning Board was functioning as the bureau to handle such matters, and said that additional time will be required thoroughly to enquire into circum, stances for establishment of the new organ. Router...
