DISPUTE MOVING TO CRISIS

PESSIMISM PREVAILING AT GENEVA

TO-DAY'S CRITICAL

DISCUSSION

GENEVA, NOV. 21. THE SINO-JAPANESE DISPUTE OVER MAN- CHURIA IS VERY RAPIDLY MOVING TO- WARDS A CRISIS.

It is feared that a real clash will come this morning when, at eleven o'clock, the League Council will begin its debate on the Lytton Report.

Mr. Matsuoka will introduce the subject by explain- ing the Japanese position and Dr. Wellington Koo, who was China's observer on the Lytton Commission, will reply.

The observations of both parties will probably be referred to the Lytton Commission for comment, but the subsequent course of events is most uncertain.

An air of pessimism prevails in Geneva, however, in view of the Japanese rejection of the Lytton Report and Dr. W. W. Yen's fighting speech in which he hinted that China would invoke Article XVI, providing for sane- tions, which would seem practically to rule out the possibility of conciliatory action by the Council under Article XI of the Covenant. The Council therefore will have no alternative but to refer the Report to the Assembly Commission of Nineteen, which has always shown more vigour in insisting on the letter of the Covenant than can be claimed for the Council.
