PEKIN, Feb. THE United

neutralized to prevent fighting or
the approval of Marshal Chang Tso,

powerful Of the northern Chinese
militarists.
1t was understood that Shang, al.
though fully in favor of the Ameri
can suggestion, would not make a
Written reply to United States Min.
lister MacMurray for transmission To
Secretary of State Frank B. Kellogg.
Chang, it was understood, would pre-.
fer that the United States accept his
tacit acquiescence in a neutraliza-
ton scheme because a formal ac-
ceptance of it might arouse Chinese
to allege that Chang was willing to
surrender Chinese sovereignty at
Shanghai.
The Cantonese nationalists, to
whom the proposal also was sub
mitted, are expected by Pekin OBJ
servers to regard naturalization as
an unwarrantable interference in
Chinese domestic affairs designed TO
secure the northern allies position at
Shanghai by preventing the National.
lists from capturing the city and to
maintain the present flow of rev.
enue from that port to Chang.
