STERLING NOTE
"PLAN
Mr. Soong Against The Proposal
Since the Japanese Foreign Minister publicly foreshadowed a "new polley towards China some time ago, there have been many- conversations at Nanking between Mr. Ariyoshi, the Japanese, Minister to China, and leading members of the Chinese Central Government, Including, it was stated, Mr. Wang Ching Wel, President of Executive Council and General Chiang Kai Shek. In addition, Dr. Wang Chung Eul, the Chinese member of Hague Court, paid a visit to Japan when he had several con- versations with Mr. Hirota and General Hayashi. As a conséquence the Japanese papers have given nuch prominence to the beneüts that may be derived from an understanding between these two powers though it is a matter for doubt whether the Nanting con- versations have been brought to any definite conclusion. For one thing, the search for that ideal and desirable solution to the Manchurian problem, which would st once appease the natural re-der British control.— sentment of the Chinese and yet have no injurious effects" to the Japanese, give indications of being a long drawn out awair though there is a possibility that the Governments concerned may agree to shelve the discussion of a pro- blem which may be formally in- soluble, and go on with other matters-in other words to co- operate in other directions.
