CHINA WANTS MANCHURIA.
Invites Powers Into Conference in
Hope of Forcing Japan Out

Invites Powers Into Conference in
Hope of Forcing Japan Out.
Berlin, Jan. 5-Oficial confirmation was
given to-day of the report that the Chi
nese government has invited the United
States England. Germany, Russia, and
France 10 send delegates to an interna-
tionaI conference at Pekin, to discuss
the commercial future of Manchuria. Be
hind the invitation. it is now known, is a
deep-laid scheme on the part Of China to
wrest the control of Manchuria from
Japan. In carrying out this plan. China
hopes to enlist the powers named to back
her.
The whole object of China in calling
such a conference. II is stated. is 10 get
other powers so deeply interested in Man
churia that they will support China In
evading her treaty with Japan covering
commercial rights in Manchuria. Japan
is clamoring for the concessions she
claims, and China does not wish to grant
them.
Too weak to stand out against the
Mikado herself, China hopes, by arOuS-
ing the avarice of other nations through
"a display OF WHAT AdlCiuAidH tIdue VIII
soon amount to, that the powers will
step in to limit Japans aggressions. The
ambition of the Japanese TO control Man
cruria will thus be checked.
China, I'm requesting that delegates be
sent to the proposed conference. has sUg-
gested that commercial experts be sent
An official of the Chinese customs will
represent China The purpose of this
seems apparent. When the commercial
experts arrive on the scene and perceive
the possibilities Of Manchuria, it is be
lieved their reports to their governments
will cause all the powers interested TO
hesitate before agreeing 10 allow Japan
to enjoy this by herself.
One thing seems assured-if the confer
ence is ever held, it will play an i'm
portant part in the development Of the
far East.
