|CH|NESE EXPLAIN
SHANTUNG PROTEST
Reservation in Treaty Would
Have Allowed Reopening
of Question.
SAY NATION IS WRONGED

PARIS. June 20 (by the Associated
Press).-China's refusal to sign the
peace treaty came after repeated eff
forts of the Chinese delegation to OBJ
tain permission to sign with reserva-
tions on the Shantung settlement
President Wilson was appealed to
by the Chinese delegation several
times within the past week. and at
first seemed inclined to favor allow
ing the Chinese to attach their sigma
lures with reservations Finally. how
ever. he concurred in the decision of
a declaration on their position after
signature, but not before.
This was regarded by the delegation
as not protecting China's rights. The
Chinese refused to sign, and are now
awaiting further orders from Peking.
Chinese Review Protest.
The Chinese delegation issued an
official statement on its position to-
the Shantung settlement, made to the
council Of prime ministers on May 4,
and its reservation on the same ques-
ton, made in the pienary session of
the peace conference May, 6, against
China.
The statement says the action of
the conference on Shantung evoked
makes it impossible for the Chinese
government to accept the objection
able clause In the treaty.
The Chinese delegatton's proposal
was that it write in the treaty above
made at the plenary session Of May
s, relative to the question Of Sham
tung in articles 156, 157 and 1884,
Want to Reopen shantung Issue.
The statement says that the peace
denied any action on the part of
China which would make it possible
after failing in all earnest at

honorable compromise rejected, the
Chinese delegation had no course open

Rather than accepting by their sig
natures the Shantung articles in the
treaty against which their sense of right

Chinese plenipotentiaries regret having
to take q course which appears to mar
the solidarity Of the allied and ASSOC
ciated powers. However, they are firm
ly Of the opinion that responsibility for
this rests not with themselves. who had
no other honorable course. but rather
with those who, 1t is felt. unjustly and
Unnecessarily deprived them of the right
OF making q declaration to safeguard
against any Interpretation which might
preclude China from asking for recon-
sideration of the Shantung question at
a suitable moment in the future. in the
hope that the injustice to China might be
rectif1ed later in the interest of perma-
nent peace in the far east.
