China was and remains due to the practices and policies Of the British and Japanese interests. The Pekip university spokesmen for China are reliable and responsible and not likely to warp a rehearsal of the distressing situation. They declared In their message that British press agencies controlling most of the news sources from China have per jured" the Chinese situation ls the western world, and that whil. Brit ish officials are daily denouncing the Chinese government and blaming 1t for the disorders, troops represent ing Britain, according to the state- ment, are daily shooting and killing Chinese. ''On June 1 alone more than 20 persons were killed or wounded in 19 different places" the educators cabled; 'on June IS eight other Chinese were killed by British gunhots firing Into a crowd"
 If these are facts 1t Is scarcely surprising that the Chinese have done some murdering in reprisal and have threatened to kill one Englishman for every Chinaman killed.
 On the same day that American residents in Shanghai cabIed Senator Borah, chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee. to use his influence for American interven- ton in China, cablegrams were re- ceivcd in London from 25 British concerns in Shanghai urging pres sure be brought to bear upon the British government to reject Chinese i suggestions regarding the trouble in 1 China, and urging armed interven- ton.
 dispatch from London yesterday declared that the British government awaited the arrival of the smbas- sador to the United States, who was to report to the government upon conversations he is said to have had with the American secretary O. state regarding a policy of joint iuterven- tion in China.
 The talk about armed interven- ton might have continued until 1t attained reality had 1t not been for the statement of Senator Borah in reply 10 Americans in Shanghai who cabled him.
 Senator Borah, chairman of the foreign relations committee Of the Senate, has let it be known that he does not favor the continuance Of extra-territorial rights Of foreign powers in China and hopes for a termination of the system upon agreement by the powers at an ear. ly date.
 The senator, by dint of his posi-. ton in the foreign affairs of the government, Is an important person age to speak upon such topic. But unfortunately what he thinks should be the policy of the United States will not be the determining factor irrespective of the justice of his stand.
 The other European powers. who instigatcd these extra-territorial rights, have shown no disposition to forego them. It cannot be denied that these rights are considered by
 Chinese as a serious infringement oi
 national sovereignty, and a contrib.
 uting cause to disorders. The principle is wrong. The pow. CTS "enjoying' extra-territoria , rights in Chinese ports right, which were exacted upon one pre-
 text or another-should get together l and at least abolish the feature: which affront the Chinese.
