JOURNAL

KOREA REVOLT
(By Associated Press)

SEOUL, Korea, March 25-The Kc-
rean movement for independence is
continuing determinedly. The move
ment for the most part is keeping to
the method of passive resistance pre-
viously decided upon but there have
been numerous riotous disturbances
in the interior, especially in the north.
along the Manchurian and Chinese
borders.
One feature that gives the authori-
ties considera BILE concern is the ap-
pearance almost daily of a secretly
printed newspaper resembling the
Libre Belgique which was circulated
in Belgium during the German occu-
patton This journal keeps the ko-
reans informed of the developments of
the situation. The impression pre-
walls from a recent search of the Sew
erance and other Christian institutions

first Methodist hospital in Chungdong
and seized a number Of articles as evil
dence. This newspaper claims that
the Jauanese correspondents are send
ing out sensational reports of the
developments.
Chinese Territory Affected.
The independence demonstrators in
general take the attitude of men will
ing to sacrifice themselves for the sal
walton of their country.
There is no sign of any reopening
of the Korean shops and it IS feared
that their continuing to keep their
doors closed will cause numerous
bankruptcies and paralyze commerce
generally.
According to a Mukden message, the
disturbances in Korea have affected
Chinese territory along the Yalu river,
where the Koreans held mass meet
ings and threatened the Japanese.
Troops were dispatched to the scene,
the message adds, and the Japanese
communities have organized volunteer
defense corps.
