Ishti agreement. According to these
authorities the Japanese declare that
their position as special guardians of
that territory is now fully conceded
and that no power can resist it.
The bitterness which has developed
on the part of the Chinese is indi-
Gated by the paragraph in written
protest by the Shantung Provincial
Assembly, which reads: "Our fellow
men in the province of Shantung in
their struggle to be released from po-
litical calamities have determined
never to taste Japanese fish or meat
even though they starve."
Causes of complaint cited in pro-
tests which are raining in upon the
central government follow:
In Tsingtau, F'angtze, Changtien,
and Tsinan the Japanese have estalb-
lished civil administration depart
ments in disregard for Chinese SOW
ereignty. The Germans during the
entire time of their occupation, it is
pointed out. never attempted to insti-
tute civil administration and left to
China the right to police the railway.
There are already Japanese consul
ates throughout Shantung to look af-
ter the welfare of Japanese residents,
making unnecessary the establish
ment of civil administration.
Japanese civil officers have already
assumed jurisdiction in cases Of rents
and debts.
Whereas the Germans only enjoyed
priority in acquiring mining rights,
the Japanese actually interfere In
some instances with mines already
owned and exploited by Chinese, even
to the length of prohibiting the sale
of products.
1.-THE building of roads, establish
ment Of an industrial school and the
taking over of control of a railway
hospital and the hospital for gen
darmes in Tsingtau is regarded a.
Ievidence of intended permanent occu'
patton"
The Chinese could perhaps forgive
the Japanese for other acts If they
had not extended their jurisdiction tc
the railway and TO a railway zone
about ten miles wide extending as fal
as Tsinanfu According to competen-
authority no convention was ever
enacted with the Germans for rail
