have committed themselves in writing
to the position that there is nothing III

As a defended city the BRUSH

that international law does not oppose

"In addition the measures of defense

An ultimatum from Japan to China is
expected today.
The Chinese refuse to accord extra-tsr-
rltoriality to Japanese immigrants In
Manohurla and tho Japanese Minister.
Mr.. Hlokl, refuses to discuss the question
further. Granting extra-territorlality
would mean that those Japanese would

In the opinion Of diplomats the stua-
ton today is moro critical than It has
been at any time before since japan made
