KAWACOE NOT YET RECALLED.
But Chinese Embassy Staff Likely To Leave japan
TELEGRAPH.
Tokyo, Jun. 17.
diplomatic Virtual severance of relations with the National Govern- necessarily ment of China did not entall declaration of war, said o apokesman of the Foreign Office in reply to questions at to-day's press conference. To. illustrate this point. he recalled the rupture of Anglo- Soviet relations in 1927.
Mr. Kawagoe, Japanese Ambassa- dor to China, has not yet been in- structed to withdraw, and Japan had not explicitly requested the Chinese Embassy in Tokyo to leave, but us n result of the statement issued on Sunday the Chinese may feel im- pellest to leave Japan, he said.
Japan's peace terms, the spokes- man added, had not been stated in detail, but they were clearly stated in principle, Chiang Kai-shek had no explicitly rejected them, but his attitude was tantamount to refusal. The negotiations had now been drop- ped, but might be reopened if the Government showed National sincerity.
