WORLD ACQUIEsCED IN
GERN.i>N'S TITLE

Germany held them by n title
that had not only been given by
China II years ago but which had
also been Rcquiesccd In by tho
other nations OF the world.
Under this treaty Germany hav-
ing lost them by war. cedes them
10 Japan which had conquered
them.
Two interesting sifelightA are
thrown on this transaction by
statements that are apparently Of
ficiai and authorized.
One Is by the Chinese delegation
which declares that unless Japan
names the date upon which II viii
turn these concessions back to
China that country will take the
dispute before the league Of ma
lions and submit II for decision
and recommendation. This plan
Indicates that the league OF nations
affords weak nations like China a
protection they have never had be-
fore. IL is an argument for tho
league OF nations.
The other Is n, statement by
Japanese representatives. that ia
pan Will turn over these conces-
sions or most Of them. to China
some time In the near future.
