she is confronted.
The declaration for the administrative
integrity of China is considered very signi-
fcant and important. While there havo
been declarations in the past for territorial
integrity such declarations mover before
have gone to the extent of declaring for
administrative integrity. Until the working
out of the details Of how this new policy is
to be applied. its full meaning may not be
determined. If the present status quo as
to previously alienated rights is to be main
tanned. it can readily DO seen that the
guarantee of territorial and administrative
integrity will fall short Of what China con-
tends for in her bill of rights
Several Of the nations hold important
territorial concessions which they have adj
ministcred for years. Will tho rights i'll
volved in these concessions be taken up and
rcadjudicated. or will they be passed up
by the conference as issues which have
been finally settled? Upon the answer to
this question will be based the conclusion
as TO the extent OF the restoration OF all Of
the rights China once possessed and as
to whether or not she is really to be free
and independent.
