"At the same time it is necessary to recognise the hard facts of the situation in North China, including the enormous military preponderance of the Japanese in North China, their de facto milliary occupation of the chief cities in that territory and their foreign cinim that the existence enclaves in that region should not militate ngafrist the security of their forces or thosa Chinese, whom they describe as their inilles and others whom they call their cilents.
