to the pronouncement Of Secretary
of State Kellogg, offering liberal
terms as a basis for new treaties be-
tween China and the United States,
is relief over the implied assurance
that America will not follow Great
Britain in her Chinese policy. 1t is
taken to mean that the United States
will not participate in what is re-
garded by the Chinese as virtually
military Intervention.
This reaction is especially marked
in Kuomintang (Cantonese) circles in
Shanghai. The Chinese in general
regard the statement of the American
secretary of the state as at least a
friendly gesture and reinsurance that
Americas liberal policy toward China
remains unchanged.
Some disappointment is expressed
at the American secretary's refusal
to ,abrogate old treaties until new
ones are signed and ratified by the
senate. The nationalists are arguing
that the United States shc::ld show
good faith by wiping the slate clear
before opening conversations.

protection of foreign lives and the
city in general, but nothing definite
resulted.

absolute confidence that their
armies would overrun the troops OF

ton south Of here. Measures for in
surfing the safety of Shanghai for

continued in full swing.
