Hankow, Dec. 1: General Liu Wen-tao, China's "Ambassador to Italy, has filled a vigorous protest with the Italian Government over s recognition of "Manchukuo,” the puppet state created by Japan.

Chinese official circles consider

It deeply regrettable that Italy which has been following a polley of non-recognition in line with other Powers in the past few years should now abandon this policy in contravention of the de- cision of the League of Nations.

Eer recognition of the puppet state, which came as a great sur- prise to the government and people of China, has dealt a heavy blow to Sino-Italian relations which have been most cordial in the past.-- Central Few.
