ROOM FOR CHINESE DOUBT

You can't blame the Chinese for being bit
skepticaI over Secretary of State Keloggs Shanghai
gesture.
KelIoggs note to the warning factions is cordial
and consderate But it proposes that the interna-
tional settlement of Shanghai be neutralized.
Inspecting Keloggs idea of neutreatio as
exhibited in Nicaragua the Chinese may not want
any.
Just the secretary's Shanghai proposal was
made public the cables carried another Illuminating
dispatch from Nicaragua
Telling how the liberal forces outnumbered two
to one. had captured another city, the cables added
In event the liberals remain in control of Chi
nandega, it is virtually certain that United States
marines will be landed there to establish neutral
zone and reestablish communications
1t is to be hoped that the Chinese have never
heard of unhappy Nicaragua They might not
derstand that the American alphabet is much more
sparse than their own and that the word neutral
may carry many meanings.
Frank Kellogg, apparently sincere in his friendly
attitude, is in position to help the Chinese greatly
1t might be one of the tragedies of history should
they decide his candor is entirely nominal.
