Roplying to Mr. Chapple with regard to the Anglo-Chinoso draft agreement last year in respect of Wei-Hal-Woi, Mr. Ponsonby said the objection to the clauso giving Britain an option to renew free of charge loan of the land and buildings for the purpose of a sanatorium was one of the pro- texts advanced last October by the Chinese Government in justi- floation of their desire funda- mentally to change the agroc- ment reached aftor protractod discussion with thair ropresant. ativos.
