JAPANESE RECOGNITION OF THE MANCHU- KUO GOVERNMENT IS TO BE MADE BY THE NANKING GOVERNMENT.

According to Chinese reports, in view of Japan's re- ported intention of extending recognition before Septem- ber 15, the Chinese Government will appeal to the League "to take effective action to prevent such a breach of China's sovereignty and territorial integrity."
It is also stated, says Reuter, that a strong protest will be lodged with the Tokyo Government against her proposed recognition of Manchukuo and against the re- cently concluded Manchukuo-Japanese Defence Alli-
ance.
In a leading article on the possibility of Japan with- drawing from the League, the China Times asks if Japan is to be propitiated to avoid such a course or whether sanctions will be enforced. to uphold the League's prestige?
