London, Nov. 28.
China's integrity must be respected, both in spirit and in letter, declared Mr. Lloyd George, former Prime Minister and leader of the Liberal Party, when he made his first speech for over a year in the House of Commons to-day.
He said Britain must realize Japan's difficulty in discovering new markets for her growing industries, but urged co-operation instead of competition.
Japan, he said, was entitled to equal but not pre- ferential treatment in the Far East.
