EXPERTS DOUBT JAPAN'S VIEWS IN WAR6N FOE Observers Hint All Powers Obviously Are Trying to Clear Nippon. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Scripps-Howard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.—The United States. Great Britain, France Spain, and other powers have sent commissions to Manchuria to investigate and report on the Japa-nese-Chinese conflict. According to information from reliable Japanese sources, the American and French groups include military observers, probably attaches from the Peping and Tokio legations and embassies. Other members are from the diplomatic personnel stationed in the Orient. A Tokio dispatch states that “the foreign investigators in Manchuria, especially the American and French military inspectors, approve of the military actions taken by the Japanese thus far.” The British observers, who are described as business men, are quoted as “approving the Japanese actions and praising the government for having had the patience thus long.” If the above turn out to be statements of fact, and not Japanese propaganda, reconsideration of the Sino-Japanese quarrel scheduled for Japan and the creation of a precedent poisonous to the Kellogg pact. Nanking dispatches indicate the Chinese government officially has

accepted Japan’s promise to withdraw her troops and is counting upon the United States and the League of Nations to see to it that she gets Justice. Other cables, however, bring reports to the effect that though the Chinese continue to maintain an attitude of nonaggression, the Japanese army or occupation is continuing its warlike moves. According to British sources friendly to Japan, Japanese planes dropped sixty bombs on a Chinese barracks near Mukden, killing and wounding 200. The Chinese port of Newchwang likewise was reported taken. As if to add irony to the situation, the Japanese chamber of commerce at Shanghai has cabled Tokio urging “some drastic and effective step” to stop the Chinese boycott against goods made in Nippon. The Chinese are refusing to buy Japanese goods and it is hurting. The boycott now has reached a stage,' the appeal to Tokio declares, “where it constitutes an act of hostility” violating clause 5 of the recent Geneva agreement. Under this agreement, China and Japan pledged themselves not to do anything to aggravate the Manchurian situation. Apparently bombing Chinese barracks does not court, while refusing to buy Japanese merchandise does. It sounds like something out of “The Mikado” or some other stage extravaganza. The white-washing of Japan would be tantamount to giving her a mandate over Manchuria and eastern Mongolia.
