CHINA DEFIEs JAPAN
U. 6. MAY BE ASKED TO OPPOSE
MlkADO.
Tokyo Said to Demand Sole Right to
Protect Integrity Of Republic
and Other Advantages.

Picking, Feb. 16.--China has reject
ed the demands of Japan, twenty-one
in number, and has told her powerful
far eastern neighbor that she must
take by force what she wants IL she
gets 1t at all. What the result Of
China's spunky attitude will be no
one knows. In the event of trouble
the Peking government will turn to
the United States for aid.
The principal demands made on
China by Japan are said to be the
following:
No section of China's coast or any
island off the coast hereafter shall
be coded or leased to another power
China must employ Japanese in
high official positions in the army,
police and financial departments.
China may call upon Japan alone
for the preservation of its integrity.
No foreigners. except Japanese,
may be employed in the arsenals. At
least half OF the arms and ammuni-
ton for China hereafter must be pur-
chased from Japan.
Japan will establish an arsenal in
China.
China must grant to Japan the same
privileges as other nations for the es-
adjustment of schools churches, hos
pitfalls and missions, and for the pur-
chase of the lands for them.
Japan claims that the demands she
has made do not violate the Hay prin-
ciples OF the integrity of China and
the open door. China says they do.
The Japanese government has given
assurances to the United States that
the demands are of commercial and
not Of political character, and that
there is no ground :or any objection
by the American government. China
asserts that the assurances are not
trustworthy; that the demands If ac-
coded to would give Japan control of
Manchuria and Mongolia in the north,
and the province of Shantung, the
port OF which was Kiaochau, wrested
by Japan from Germany.
China has sought assistance from
Russia and Great Britain. Both are
occupied with the terrible struggle in
Europe
