Important Issue Raised By

Coolidge Incident

Shanghai, To-day. Regarding the silver shipment on board the "Pre- sident Coolidge" which the Japanese authori- ties refused a permit to leave the port, the Ja- panese Embassy states that "the Reformed Government" some time ago issued a decree forbidding the export of bullion without per- mit, an order to this effect having been issued at the time to the customs authorities of Shanghai.

t

CONTROL OF THE CUSTOMS WAS TAKEN OVER BY THE RE- FORMED GOVERNMENT IN JUNE OF THIS YEAR. QUES- TIONED WHETHER THE RIGHT TO INSTITUTE THIS PROCEDURE HAD BEEN RECOGNISED BY THE FOREIGN POWERS, THE JAPANESE SPOKESMAN GAVE AN EVA- SIVE REPLY, FINALLY STATING THAT IN JAPANESE OPINION, RECOGNITION WAS AFFORDED BY THE FACT THAT FOREIGN NATIONALS WERE PAYING THE RE- VISED CUSTOMS TARIFF INSTITUTED BY THE REFORM- ED GOVERNMENT.

Foreign observers, however, take the view that this does not con- stitute valid recognition, but only submission to enforced change.

We do not abandon hope that it will still be possible to settle the question by peaceful means and on the basis of the proposals submit ted to Prague and laid down Munich.

The Japanese Embassy also stat. ed that when Shanghai was occupi- ed by Japanese forces; the latter had instructed the customs not to permit the exports of bullion which might be used by Chiang Kai-Shek.

The latter order, however, was also unrecognised by the, foreign

powers.

The legal aspect, apparent- ly, is that the Chinese National Government, the Chiang Kai-Shek regime, issued an embargo on the export of buillion but. as this ship- ment is the property of the Chinese

National Government itself, the em- bargo does not apply.

The American shipping company, however, has unloaded the silver and redeposited it in the Chase Bank.

This is believed to have been decided in order that the steamer should not be held up any longer since without clearance paper from Shanghai, it could not enter Japanese ports.
