THE CHINA MAIL, MAY 28, "1941.
RETALIATION AGAINST JAPAN DEMANDED
THE FORCIBLE seizure by Japanese troops of $10,000,000 worth of American products belonging to two American compan- es in Haiphong on Sunday, has provoked
strong editorial comment in the influential "Washington Post" which virtually demands that the government take retaliatory mea-
sures.
Declaring the Japanese action to be a slap in the face of Uncle Sam, the "Washing- ton Post" said: "These goods were bought by funds made available to China by the Ex- port and Import Bank and constitute a mani- festation of this country's decision to render all-out aid to China.
