OF CHUNGKING PRESS
CHUNGKING, Dec. 6 (Reuter)-Chinese circles criti- cize the alleged British decision not to setze German arms exports to Japan.
In a strongly worded article yesterday morning, the in- fluential Ta Kung Pao declares: "We cannot understand the alleged British decision not to seize German arms ex- ports to Japan.
"We are all neutrals in the European War; "why, therefore, grant a special privilege to Japan? That is an injustice.
ין
PARTICULARLY STRANGE
"That arms exports is especially mentioned is particu- larly strange. The reason why Japan is importing arms from Germany is to wage her war of aggression in China and Britain is alleged to have particularly excluded such German exports to Japan from seizure.
"We have no other explanation, except that Britain is deliberately making matters difficult for China and must ex- press our profound regrets.".
