signed their text was communicate

Great Britain, Russia. France and
Italy. This was done at Tokyo.
It Is not surprising that this
procedure produced upon the
Chinese the impression that the
japanese had got what they
wanted. They thought the decla.
rations made by the United States
contained admission Of a special
position held by Japan in China,
not desired by the latter. but
forced through by the military
and political power of Japan.
NOTES AMBIGUOUS. ..
The reception given the note

the public Indicated that It would
be interpreted In widely varying
fashion. The first impression

the State Department. 1t was
necessary, II the japanese really
entertained 1t. to disabuse them
of the conception that the political
influence OF the United States
was being used to discourage
close business relationships be-
tween China and Japan, and to
frown upon japanese enterprises
in China.
On the basis OF such an under
standing. It was hoped that japan
would Join with the United States
in agreeing that special privileges
IN any part Of China, or any sort
Of economic advantage, would not
be sought by political means; that
the Manchurian regime, to be more
specific, would not extend to other
parts Of China.
But the notes definitely stated
that Japan would not use her spe-
cial interests In way to ."discrimi-
nate against the trade OF other ma
tions. or to disregard the CONNER
cial rights heretofore granted by
China In tn treaties with other
powers" This might give rise TO
the idea that special interests"
did not refer merely to specific eco
nomic interests and enterprises.
1t might include also a certain poll
