BECAUSE THEY

Chinese Oppose New Censor
tlum Organized for Their
Financial Assistance.
PURPOSE MIScoNsTRUED
State Department Explains
COOPERATIVE Action Of
Bankers of Nations.

Washington, Dec. 11.-Q. N. ST.
Distrust OF Japan is mainly respon-
sible for opposition on the part OF the
Chinese to the new consortium or
ganl2ed by the United States, Grear
Britain and France for the financIaI
assistance OF China, according to on.
cials here.
This feeling OF distrust, these off,
Gals said today. has caused the Chi
nese delegation at the league of na-
TOM conference in Geneva to mis-
construe the statement OF Baron
Hayashi, Japanese amba ssador 10
Great Britain, that the United States
Is IN accord with Japan, Great Brit
ain and France as to the future policy
OF the powers toward China"
Hayashi, they insist. had reference
To the new financial agreement and
not to any general political policy.
Inc note of inquiry as to Americas
attitude, reported yesterday from Ge-
neVa to have been dispatched by DR..
wellington koo. head OF the Chinese
delegation. has not yet been received
AZ the state department.
The state department explained
that II negotiated the consortium In
the belief that the interests OF the
chinese would best be served by co.
operative action of the bankers OF the
-FOUR powers In making loans to the
chinese government for the construc-
ZION OF roads, railways and telegraphs.
IL thus hoped, according to Its official
TO assist the Chinese
people In their efforts toward q
greater unity and to OFFER to individ-
ual enterprise of all nationaiities
equal opportunity and a wider field
OF activity in the economic develop
ment of China"
