Plan to Organize.

Washington, Aug 8.-A meeting of
senators and representatives interest
ed privately in maintaining close
touch with Chinese affairs was called
for today TO form a so-called China
group" similar to these organized in
European parliaments under the IN
official direction of the republican par
lament of China
The purpose of the association is
ito give moral influence, whenever it
is needed, to the cause of preserving
the integrity of China and to take such
action as may be needed by the inter
national situation when such questions
are concerned as the open door or
when an attack is made on Chinese in
dependence.
The parent organization in Picking is
said already to be exchanging infOr-
nation on Chinsee politics with its
branches in European parliaments.
The aim of the system is declared to
be only that of private friendship. in
no way interfering with the diplom-
acy of any country in which it is es-
tablished"
-Jou-Kai, a Chinese scholar, or
ganiZed the groups in European parlia-
ments and is promoting the movement
here.
