CHINA AND CHALLENGE OF JAPAN
London, To-day. "China has accepted the chal- lenge of Japan and we mean to resist to the end,” declared Miss Wellington Koo, amid cheers at the Liberal Summer School at Oxford.
"We realise that the challenge we are facing to-day," continued Miss Koo, is a challenge the world is also facing and while we are fighting for our freedom, at the same time, it is for the es- tablishment of international law and order and the sanctity treaties, which Japan has vio- lated:
"We realise that it is on the triumph of law, order and justice that the civilisation in the world and human happiness. depends."
-Reuter.
