The Anglo-French talks would be necessary apart from Lord Halifax's trip to Germany and they will provide opportunity to examine ather important ques- tians, like the Spanish situation. which is considered in London to be less acute than at any time for eighteen months, notably because there is less enthusiasm for inter-¡t vention. But it is a mistake to think the war will end; soon, and so long as it lasts. Spain and the Mediterranean offer problems de- manding Franco-British consulta- tion.

Hankew, Nov. 29. The.. temporary transfer of China's capital to Hankow has roused this city from the idleness which the utter lack of business, due to the hostilities had imposed upon it.

Broadly speaking, the British aim will be to work closely with the United States for representations on similar lines to those already made to Tokyo by France, United States and Britain.

JAPANESE TAKE OVER

Shanghai, Nov. 29. The Japanese authorities have assumed control of the Chinese telegraph and wiress adminis- trations in Shanghal and have taken over all the branches and instituted their own censorship.

Most of the Chinese employees have walked out, with the result that both the telegraphic and wireless services are disrupted.

The Japanese have also taken over censorship of the Chinese newspapers in Shanghai, which has hitherto been exercised by officials appointed by the Kuom- intang.
