TRÚCE AGREEMENT
TO REMAIN UNAFFECTED BY BOMB INCIDENT
Tokyo, Apr. 30. The Hongkow bombing is not expected to affect the Sino-Japan- ese relations. No protest is con- templated, it is stated authorita- tively here, as the scene of the out- rage is under temporary Japanese miiftury occupation and the bomb thrower is a Japanese subject. The vernacular papers here are deeply shocked, but regret the inevitable delay in signing the truce agreement which is the up- | pormest feature of thoir comment which is restrained in tone as the motive for the outrage is not yet clenclear.-Reuter.
