CHINA OPPOSES
JAP DEMANDS
Would Abrogate Treaties and
Notes of 1915, if League
Sees Fit

Paris. saturday April 5.-Nullihca-
tion of the twenty y-one demands made
by Japan early in 1915 is urged by
the Chinese government in an official
statement cahled from Peking and
received by the Japanese peace dele
cation to-day.
The Pcking statement declares that
the Japanese treaties and notes
forced upon China in 1915 should be
abrogated because their terms are
Incompatible with the principles upon
which the League of Nations is
founded" The statement is largely
a reply to recent statement made
by Baron Maxine. of the Japanese
delegation, on the position of Japan.
since the Japanese delegate in
Paris the Chinese statement says.
has pointedly referred to the twcn-
ty-one demands. ii is incumbent upon
the Chinese government to draw at
tention to the fact that China's ac-
qutescence to terms subcversive of

her own interests were secured by
means of an ultimatum to which she
was forced to surrender because of
the pre-occupation of the rest of the
world in the European war. 1t is a
fact that the terms were imposed
upon China at the point of the bayo-
net, the eXemple followed being that
of Prussia; the extension to ninety
nine years of the lease of Port Arthur
and South Manchurian railways con-
cessions being precisely the German
Shantung terms"
The statement says that the claim
of Japan to special privileges be-
cause the Japanese expelled the Ger
mans from Shantung contrasts oddly
with the failure of the Americans to
claim the railways and mines of
France although the Germans were
expelled from AlsaCe and Lorraine
by the cooperation of the American
army. 1t says that the American
army of 100000 lost more than sixty
times the number of lives that Japan
claims she lost at Tsing-Tao.
