SECRET ANNEX
DENIED
SOUTH SUPPORTS NANKING
Shanghai, May 12. Despite repeated official denials, the belief that a secret annax to the armistice agreement exists continues to disturb cartain sections of the Chinese public and in order to dissipate all misgivings the Chin- one authorities have decided to publish a facsimile copy of the pact and its annexes.
It is pointed out by the Chinese officials that if the agreement con- tained a secret annex, diplomatic representatives of England, Am- erica, Franco and Italy would not have appended their signatures as witzcases.
The Chinese and Japanese texts of the agreement remain to be algn- ed, but it is expected that this will not take place until Mr. Shigemitsu Is able to sign on behalf of Japan.-- Reuter's Special.

Admiral Shirakawa is to be ro- lieved of his post as Commander- in-Chief of the expeditionary force after reports have been sent to the throne and he completes all the re- maining business. The force it- self is to be re-organised. Reuter. Rehabilitation.
Shanghai, May 12. The special committee appoint- ed by the Government for taking over the evacuated areas met this afternoon to discuss the robably-) bation of the devastated areas in the evacuated territories.
In view of Tokyo's decision to withdraw all the army regular troops from Shanghat, it is no longer necessary for the Japanest to make use of the four localities mentioned in the armistien agree- mont, in which temporarily to stn- tion their troops.—Router.
